Título : Managing Projects in the Real World : The Tips and Tricks No One Tells You About When You Start Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: McBride, Melanie ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Berkeley ; New York : Apress Fecha de publicación: 2014 Otro editor: Imprint: Apress Número de páginas: XI, 256 p. 6 illus Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-4302-6512-2 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Business Management science and Management, general Clasificación: 658 Empresas. Organización de empresas Resumen: Managing Projects in the Real World provides clear and actionable advice to project managers for recognizing, anticipating, and overcoming challenges associated with the human component of leading others. The mechanics of project management are rational and straightforward to learn. The art of project management is irrational and complex to learn. Project managers need to develop a repertoire of soft skills that are typically hard for them, since they rose through the ranks to that position by virtue of superior reasoning skills. But if a project manager cannot adjudicate the clash of personalities, finesse the friction between assigned and preferred roles, steer clear of hidden hazards, and diplomatically resolve overlapping assertions of competing authority—that project manager is in a world of trouble. From the human perils of project management, nobody is better qualified to rescue beleaguered project managers than Melanie McBride—veteran PM and author of the Intel blog, The Accidental Profession. She sheds light on those dark, dusty places that fall between the cracks of theory and best practice out in the real world where irate colleagues, unrealistic product launch dates, and virtual meetings reign supreme and run amok. In this book you’ll find targeted discussions and specific techniques to empower you to meet the challenges that project managers face every day. The book is structured into project phases to help any project manager on any kind of project jump right to the tried and true solution for the challenge at hand En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4302-6512-2 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=35887 Managing Projects in the Real World : The Tips and Tricks No One Tells You About When You Start [documento electrónico] / McBride, Melanie ; SpringerLink (Online service) . - Berkeley ; New York : Apress : Imprint: Apress, 2014 . - XI, 256 p. 6 illus : online resource.

Título : Managing Your Outsourced IT Services Provider : How to Unleash the Full Potential of Your Global Workforce Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Upadrista, Venkatesh ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Berkeley ; New York : Apress Fecha de publicación: 2015 Otro editor: Imprint: Apress Número de páginas: VIII, 152 p. 13 illus Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-4842-0802-1 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Business Management science Computers and Management, general Information Systems Communication Service Clasificación: 658 Empresas. Organización de empresas Resumen: Managing Your Outsourced IT Services Provider teaches executives and managers of organizations how to unleash the full potential of their outsourced IT services workforce and IT-enabled business processes safely and profitably. Drawing on two decades of experience managing client relationships for global IT services companies, Venkatesh Upadrista guides outsourcing organizations around the hazards of geographic distance, linguistic miscommunication, organizational mismatch, and functional disparity between receiver requirements and provider capabilities. The first half of the book describes what an outsourcing organization needs to know about the IT services providers industry in general to deal intelligently with specific providers: namely, the industry’s organizational types, strategic drivers, competitive labor market constraints, and tactics for hitting P&L targets. The second half of the book teaches outsourcers how to evaluate prospective providers, craft service level agreements, formalize best practices, and manage the full gamut of receiver-provider relationships to optimize outcome in terms of cost, timeliness, and quality of services received. The descriptions and prescriptions in Managing Your Outsourced IT Services Provider apply equally to onshore and offshore outsourcing, but examples and case studies focus on offshoring. In addition, Upadrista analyzes the advantages, disadvantages, and special considerations and caveats of single provider outsourcing and captive centers En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4842-0802-1 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=35376 Managing Your Outsourced IT Services Provider : How to Unleash the Full Potential of Your Global Workforce [documento electrónico] / Upadrista, Venkatesh ; SpringerLink (Online service) . - Berkeley ; New York : Apress : Imprint: Apress, 2015 . - VIII, 152 p. 13 illus : online resource.

Organización de empresas Resumen: Many managers view marketing as a creative endeavor, not something that is measurable or manageable by numbers. But today’s leaders in the C-suite demand greater accountability. They want to know that they are getting a return on their marketing investment. And to get that ROI number, you need analytics. This expectation is intimidating for the many sales and marketing managers who rely on marketing instincts, not metrics, to do their work. But Marketing Analytics Roadmap: Methods, Metrics, and Tools demonstrates that employing analytics isn't just a way to keep the CEO off your back. It improves marketing results and ensures marketers a seat at the table where big decisions get made. In this book, analytics expert Jerry Rackley shows you how to understand and implement a sound marketing analytics process that helps eliminate the guesswork about the results produced by your marketing efforts. The result? You will acquire—and keep—more customers. Even better, you'll find that an analytics process helps the entire organization make better decisions, and not just marketers. Marketing Analytics Roadmap explains: How to use analytics to create marketing and sales metrics that guide your actions and provide valuable feedback on your efforts How to structure and use dashboards to report marketing results How to put industry-leading analytics software and other tools to good use How Big Data is shaping the marketing analytics landscape Sales and marketing teams that master marketing analytics will find them a powerful servant that enables agility, raises effectiveness, and creates confidence. Marketing Analytics Roadmap shows you how to build a well-planned and executed marketing analytics strategy that will enhance the credibility of your marketing team and help you not only get a seat at the big-decisions table, but keep it once there En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4842-0259-3 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=35370 Marketing Analytics Roadmap : Methods, Metrics, and Tools [documento electrónico] / Rackley, Jerry ; SpringerLink (Online service) . - Berkeley ; New York : Apress : Imprint: Apress, 2015 . - XIV, 168 p. 15 illus : online resource.

Título : Mass Customization : Opportunities, Methods, and Challenges for Manufacturers Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Kull, Hans ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Berkeley ; New York : Apress Fecha de publicación: 2015 Otro editor: Imprint: Apress Número de páginas: VIII, 148 p. 9 illus Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-4842-1007-9 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Business Management science and Management, general Clasificación: 658 Empresas. Organización de empresas Resumen: Mass Customization examines the business opportunities, considerations, and challenges manufacturers in various industries must weigh before committing to the significant investment in machinery and software needed to go to mass customization. For manufacturers who decide that it’s time to take the plunge, the author describes the proven methods and latest technologies for making mass customization work seamlessly and profitably on the factory floor. Mass customization—the automated manufacturing bespoke products, profitably combining the low unit costs of mass production with the flexibility of building custom products to order—has been touted as the next big thing for more than a quarter of a century. Until recently, however, mass customization made only modest inroads in a few industries. Now, the convergence of new ICT and manufacturing technologies with traditional CNC technologies means that mass customization’s moment has arrived for breaking out into a wide range of industries. Hans Kull is an engineer and mathematician who applies his expertise in combinatorial optimization, programming, and engineering to devising end-to-end automated solutions for mass customization, automating and optimizing all processes—from bespoke parts supply, order processing, production, and waste minimization to packing and delivery. He shares with his readers practical lessons for making mass customization succeed, case studies from various industries, and an insider’s vision of the business implications of mass customization’s coming of age En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4842-1007-9 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=35382 Mass Customization : Opportunities, Methods, and Challenges for Manufacturers [documento electrónico] / Kull, Hans ; SpringerLink (Online service) . - Berkeley ; New York : Apress : Imprint: Apress, 2015 . - VIII, 148 p. 9 illus : online resource.
