This book was released on 2015-09-17 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *****PROFUNDO, EFECTIVO, DEMOSTRADO Y REPLICABLE***** UN MÉTODO GARANTIZADO DE PLANEACIÓN ESTRATÉGICA Hace casi dos décadas, cuando comenzábamos a trabajar con diversas organizaciones el tema de Mejora de Procesos, Manufactura Lean o Reingenierías de Procesos, nos percatamos de que la mayoría de todas estas organizaciones pequeñas, medianas y grandes NO tenían una estrategia definida y clara que todos los colaboradores conocieran, comprendieran y trabajaran en una sola dirección para que sucediera lo que deseaban en su entorno laboral. Nos dimos cuenta que la estrategia o la estrategia empresarial, cuando la tenían, sólo se concebía entre el director y algún personal directivo clave y estos se juntaban al final de cada año para hacer la Planeación Estratégica de la empresa. Debemos comentar que algunos tenían éxito, pero para la gran mayoría de ellos, la estrategia era romántica, un esfuerzo desgarrador y un calvario, pues no sucedía, debido a que el día a día, la operación diaria y todos los problemas que surgen por malos procesos o falta de estandarización, impedían tener tiempo para dar seguimiento a lo planeado en la estrategia, y como es lógico, si había otras cosas o actividades más urgentes, lo de la estrategia se posponía, y como esto sucedía frecuentemente, al final de un año no acontecía nada o muy poco de lo planeado se había llevado a cabo, y como la estrategia se hace cada año se volvían a juntar para planear el siguiente año, y bueno... pues esto es el cuento de nunca acabar. Un cuento que probablemente has escuchado desde hace años y, que como te darás cuenta, no tiene un final alentador, mucho menos feliz. UN METODO CREADO POR EXPERTOS EMPRESARIOS Al ser expertos en procesos y apasionados del tema, nos dimos cuenta que la Planeación Estratégica también es un proceso que, para que sea exitoso, debe de incluir una metodología práctica y entendible, para todas las personas y, no sólo para la dirección de la empresa. Así que, sabiendo esto y con el propósito de ayudar a las empresas, el reto para nosotros fue investigar las mejores prácticas de la Planeación Estratégica, leer cientos de libros de los autores más prestigiados en el tema, sumar e integrar las herramientas prácticas y que pudieran ser entendidas e implementadas por la mayor cantidad de personas de las empresas e instituciones y así es como se concibió este libro que denominamos con el nombre de "El Método de Planeación Estratégica Total(R). MILES DE MILLONES Generados con Planeación Estratégica TOTAL(R) Por casi dos décadas nuestro método de Planeación Estratégica Total(R) se ha probado con cientos de empresas privadas, universidades y muchas organizaciones para altos ejecucitovs, instituciones gubernamentales y corporativos globales, durante todo este tiempo y creyendo en la mejora continua como pilar y visión de IGNIUS, es lógico que el método también sea mejorado, perfeccionado y hoy tenemos la certeza que funciona, además como siempre estamos cerca de nuestros clientes, también hemos sido testigos de cómo las empresas con quien hemos trabajado y que año con año siguen la disciplina del método han crecido, alcanzan sus objetivos, re-direccionan sus actividades y mejoran sus resultados.

Download or read book Adi s al capitalismo written by Jérôme Baschet and published by NED Ediciones. This book was released on 2015-03 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Qué implica replantearse la posibilidad de un mundo liberado del capitalismo? En el marco de una crisis que marca los límites del pensamiento neoliberal, los nuevos movimientos sociales –excluidos, sin papeles, sin empleo, sin vivienda, migrantes, pueblos indígenas– proponen iniciativas desde abajo. Jérôme Baschet analiza en este libro las experimentaciones sociales y políticas de las comunidades zapatistas, en las que participa desde hace años, para reabrir el horizonte de los posibles. Pero no establece como modelo universal estas experiencias de autogestión que se llevan a cabo en esa región de México, ni construye un gran relato de futuro, sino más bien al contrario, las condena a disolverse en un nuevo Estado, incluso proletario. La crisis mundial no afecta a todos de la misma manera. Las mutaciones del mundo del trabajo y subjetividades dispuestas a participar de nuevas formas de producción y consumo rediseñan nuestro presente. Sin embargo, no han madurado aún los proyectos de emancipación. Gracias a un esfuerzo poco habitual, que conjuga proyección teórica y conocimiento directo de una de las experiencias de autonomía más reflexivas de las últimas décadas, Jérôme Baschet propone un balance crítico del zapatismo y analiza la organización política de esas comunidades autónomas federadas que se hicieron cargo de los servicios de salud, educación, policía y justicia. Más allá de las recetas revolucionarias del siglo XX, Baschet explicita las características más complejas del capitalismo financiarizado y explora vías alternativas para la elaboración práctica de nuevas formas de vida.
Download or read book Short Bowel Syndrome written by John K. DiBaise and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-12-19 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short Bowel Syndrome: Practical Approach to Management is the first reference exclusively about the issues experienced by patients with a short bowel. It covers all aspects of normal and abnormal physiology, the presenting features, and outcomes, including metabolic problems, gallstones, and renal stones. It discusses both medical and surgical treatments, including intestinal transplantation. The use of growth factors, which is likely in the future to become increasingly important in promoting intestinal structural adaptation, is extensively discussed. Special emphasis is given to the psychosocial aspects of the quality of life of patients, including support groups. Emphasis is also given to the importance of an experienced multidisciplinary team in caring for these patients. This book is particularly timely given the recent advances in the management of Short Bowel Syndrome, including the availability of pharmacologic agents to enhance intestinal absorption, refinements in parenteral nutrition, and surgical procedures designed to eliminate the need for parenteral nutrition support. The goal of this international, interdisciplinary book is to bring the subject of Short Bowel Syndrome to a wide audience. A wide range of specialists have contributed to this book to provide various viewpoints on the state-of-the-art care of those with this condition.
