Mastering a Museum Plan provides an optimal structure for successful planning, one that allows a museum to articulate its message, organize its development activity, avoid the need for crisis management, and prevent the loss of human and material resources.

Download or read book Urban Development written by Lewis D. Hopkins and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "With increased awareness of the role of plans in shaping urban and suburban landscapes has come increased criticism of planners and the planning profession. Developers, politicians, and citizens alike blame "poor planning" for a host of community ills. But what are plans really supposed to do? How do they work? What problems can they successfully address, and what is beyond their scope?" "In Urban Development, leading planning scholar Lewis Hopkins tackles these thorny issues as he explains the logic of plans for urban development and justifies prescriptions about when and how to make them. He explores the concepts behind plans, some that are widely accepted but seldom examined and others that modify conventional wisdom about the use and usefulness of plans." "Urban Development will give all those involved with planning human settlements a more thorough understanding of why and how plans are made, enabling them to make better choices about using and making plans. It is an important contribution that will be essential for students and faculty in planning theory, land use planning, and planning project courses."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Competency orientated teaching has become an important objective in higher education. To meet this objective, an individual personal development plan (PDP) is indispensable.

Download or read book Apollo Program Development Plan written by Robert Godwin and published by Apogee Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been said that the Apollo Program was the greatest human achievement since the construction of the pyramids in Egypt. It was certainly one of the greatest achievements of modern times. But how was this miracle accomplished? Superficially, Apollo was the culmination of less than a decade of work by the greatest scientific and engineering minds anywhere in the world, but it was also an astonishing logistical and management achievement. Before President Kennedy was elected to office, military planners on both sides of the Cold War were convinced that the moon might represent the ultimate safe haven for military assets. If an enemy was to launch a first strike, whoever controlled the moon would always have the last word. With the goal of ensuring that safeguard, the US Army and the US Air Force began making plans for going to the moon long before NASA was even created. However, President Eisenhower chose to put Americas space program in the hands of a civilian agency and the military moon program ended. Three years later, when President Kennedy announced his nations goal of landing men on the moon, the sheer scope of the task required more than just scientists and engineers, it required men and women who were used to planning on a scale rarely seen outside of military conflict. It would also require the requisitioning of many of those old military assets, from ships, to tracking systems, to contractors. USAF Four Star General Samuel C Phillips would sit astride of the colossal program named Apollo and with the aid of nearly half a million of his fellow citizens would achieve the seemingly impossible. This book contains the entire plan, as it was summarised for a very limited number of people who were highly placed in the organisational structure. This rarely seen document is reproduced here in its entirety and spells out how the greatest logistical program of the 20th century was achieved.
