We are in a working group or at a meeting, discussing a topic or a challenge, and all the while, as a separate track running underneath our conversation, there is a subtext that no one explicitly addresses.Thi…s is an example of 'the elephant in the room'. Most of us notice the elephant, it gets in the way, and it's difficult to deal with until someone points at it and says, 'There it is, let's take a look at it and reduce its impact.' With an engaging use of examples and questions, Lotte Svalgaard addresses how we can best deal with the elephant and thus promote job satisfaction, creativity and productivity. In the context of action, what we notice often recedes into the background and gradually slips out of focus until we eventually reconnect with our need to reflect and recreate a space for it. This book addresses the challenge of focusing on, holding onto and acting on what we notice 'in the middle of it all'. Maintaining a simultaneous focus on task and process - what we do and what we notice - is what the author defines as 'double awareness'. Double awareness is not only a core capacity but also a core challenge.While the aim of The Elephant in the Room was to promote understanding and awareness of this core challenge and to inspire both reflection and action for anyone wishing to improve engagement in their workplaces, Working with the Elephant is taking this challenge a step further by providing ten core challenges in dealing with elephants in groups and organizations. It is a workbook about the difficult transition from avoidance to action. With help, support and tips, it guides readers to take action where it will make a difference for them, their group and the organization as a whole. It can be used as a workbook for The Elephant in the Room or it can be used independently. 200 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Lean Manufacturing, the production method first popularized by Toyota, has often been reduced to charts and tools by many US manufactures -- they've abandoned the original intent of the methodology. Many of the concepts and theorie…s have becomes misconstrued, but systems such as Kanban (a Japanese concept used in Just-in-Time manufacturing) and applying core Lean principals to manufacturing remain valid today.This book promotes Leaner Manufacturing as next generation thinking involving the manufacturing process. It considers transformative tools that still work well, such as value stream mapping, and considers the manufacturing process as well as design theory.Leaner Manufacturing simplifies current manufacturing terms including the four categories of manufacturing: casting/ molding, machining, joining, and shearing/ forming in layman's terms. This simplification creates an opportunity for invention and the process for applying and securing a patent would also be included.In addition, Leaner Manufacturing covers how to improve/modernize Kaizen Events (Rapid Improvement Events), Value Stream Mapping Processes, and Kanban practices as well as shows the power of using Agile Scrum practices and easier Lean Analytics.Essentially, Leaner Manufacturing simplifies the valid concepts of Lean Manufacturing as well as manufacturing, in general, to make various processes easier and less expensive to implement. It shows how to make Kaizen Events (Rapid Improvement Events) more effective. And, it provides a way for leaders to ensure buy-in from their teams and stakeholders and provide for a motivated and inspired workforce. 196 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book brilliantly illustrates how blockchain and Web3 are revolutionizing value exchange in society. Blockchain technology sets new standards for transparency, provenance, and traceability, benefiting every stakeholder across t…he value chain in an interoperable manner. The technology fundamentally transforms industries, verticals, and functions within organizations, enabling decentralized identity, asset tokenization, governance, and enhanced privacy. This book offers a deep yet accessible guide to navigating this new paradigm.-Alejandro Acuña Rodríguez, Blockchain Infrastructure Specialist, CrossmintLean Thinking has its roots in ideas developed for process improvement in the 1900s. Systems Thinking was discussed as far back as the 1950s. Blockchain technology is based on work that started in the 1990s and was implemented soon after Satoshi Nakamoto published his Bitcoin whitepaper in 2009. Together, these three components-Lean, Blockchain, and Systems Thinking-provide a revolutionary force in process management efficiency and effectiveness.This book provides a perspective on the advantages of blockchain technology that is rarely covered in business books as well as specialist blockchain-related content. The focus has been the use of Cryptocurrencies as a store of financial value and as an instrument of speculation, like the stock market. This book shows that blockchain, together with Lean and Systems Thinking can provide multiple advantages for societies and the environment. It can be used effectively to meet sustainable development goals (SDGs).Readers will appreciate that blockchain within Lean practices and Systems Thinking opens opportunities for fundamental organizational transformation, improved strategic decision-making, increased interoperability, and a fairer, more sustainable, and less wasteful world. This book clarifies how the integration of blockchain technology as an organizational concept integrates Lean principles and Systems Thinking. This brings a transformative shift in process design, increasing productivity while minimizing waste across sectors such as industry, public services, governance, supply chains, and social frameworks. 234 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Most often managers come up through the ranks of employees and are chosen because of their success, drive, abilities, education, other accomplishments, and personal factors. However, collectively their accomplishments as employees…do not necessarily prepare them for managing and leading. Completing tasks is different from energizing and motivating others to perform. Often the best 'doers' are not the best managers. In managing and leading, it often is the mid-level or average performer that is more effective. They may not achieve at the highest level as an employee, but they have qualities that fit with the characteristics of successful managers and leaders. What is needed regardless of prior experience is training and guidance to be a successful manager and leader. What they need is a tool kit to assist them in transitioning to management and, more broadly, to grow in the role over many years. The contents of this book are based on 30 years of client-proven consulting work with companies from start-up to Fortune 100. The information, methods, forms, and other ideas have been honed and modified to provide a universally implementable series of programs and processes that will assist managers and leaders at all levels of organizations to more effectively lead and manage. A key value of The Management Puzzle Solved! is that useful management information is communicated in a concise, informative, non-time intensive format. Each section can be read and digested readily and serve as an ongoing reference for managers as specific needs or concerns arise or just to broaden knowledge.This book is a mini-management course in a readable and compact format. It provides managers with information to interview candidates more effectively, deal with the day-to-day management of employees, provide leadership for the organization, manage employee performance, facilitate meetings effectively, enhance communication, promote team functioning, and implement change more smoothly. Rather than the latest fad, this field-tested set of management tools provides ideas and techniques that have been implemented in hundreds of companies with thousands of managers and employees to help you manage and lead effectively. 260 pp. Englisch.
