Download or read book Layman s Guide to Workforce Management written by Renju Zacharias and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-17 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's all in the title. Layman's Guide to Workforce Management is a humble attempt to guide the path of the unlearned in the rocky terrain of Workforce management. It can be effectively said that it converts laymen into managers. It is unfortunate that these areas of business affairs have been badly presented in some learning situations, to the extent that many people consider them to be too difficult to understand or enjoy. That shouldn't be the case. The simple, explicit, detailed, and down-to-earth approach adopted in the book will no doubt help in laying a solid foundation for people at all levels. It kick-starts with a basic and detailed treatment of the concept of Forecasting which sets the much needed personal tone and foundation for the book. Like a professional bricklayer, the author discussed the technique of scheduling and rostering while he used the other chapter to discuss the importance and proper deployment of personnel. Book is built taking the ITES -BPO/Call center WFM as the base. This book will also be useful for professionals as it is spiced with tips and tricks necessary to provide adequate nuances for the knowledge gleaned from each chapter. It is guaranteed that the reader would be filled with knowledge at the completion of the book.

When should organizations use digital assessment tools for gauging talent and potential? This book from MIT Sloan Management Review answers questions managers are only beginning to ask, presenting insights and stories from organizations navigating the novel challenges of the digital workplace. Experts from business and academia describe what's worked, what's failed, and what they've learned in the new world of work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Risk management and contingency planning has really come to the fore since the first edition of this book was originally published. Computer failure, fire, fraud, robbery, accident, environmental damage, new regulations - business is constantly under threat. But how do you determine which are the most important dangers for your business? What can you do to lessen the chances of their happening - and minimize the impact if they do happen? In this comprehensive volume Kit Sadgrove shows how you can identify - and control - the relevant threats and ensure that your company will survive. He begins by asking 'What is risk?', 'How do we assess it?' and 'How can it be managed?' He goes on to examine in detail the key danger areas including finance, product quality, health and safety, security and the environment. With case studies, self-assessment exercises and checklists, each chapter looks systematically at what is involved and enables you to draw up action plans that could, for example, provide a defence in law or reduce your insurance premium. The new edition reflects the changes in the global environment, the new risks that have emerged and the effect of macroeconomic factors on business profitability and success.
