Book excerpt: Programme management is becoming an increasingly important aspect of managing business change, whether within parts of an organisation, across the whole organisation or involving a group of organisations. The drivers for change may be internal, such as improving the quality of products, or external, such as new government policy. The second edition of this publication describes the OGC's approach for managing change effectively, based upon best practice experience within government and across the private sector. It provides an overview of the programme management framework, and considers key principles including leadership, benefits management, stakeholder management and communication, risk management, programme planning and control, business case management and quality management issues. It then goes on to discuss the programme management lifecycle including the identification and detailed definition of the programme, managing the project portfolio, delivery and realisation of measurable business benefits and the close-down of the programme and its infrastructure.

Book excerpt: Programmes for Animation: A Handbook for Animation Technicians is a handbook on animation containing a list of 57 programs for use on a programmable calculator.

The programs are intended for the Hewlett-Packard HP-97 calculator, and can also be used on the HP-67 pocket calculator. Comprised of 17 chapters, this book begins by giving sufficient information about the functions of the keys of the calculator. The discussion then turns to field widths and zoom counter readings; the field chart and coordinate systems; and lens and table off-sets. Subsequent chapters deal with linear movements and fairings; exponential movements; middle fairings and co-fairings; rotations and circular pans; and simple harmonic motion. Exposures at different field widths are also explained, along with zooms using several pieces of artwork and movements along a curve. The book concludes by describing two-lens aerial image projection. This monograph was written specifically for animation technicians.

Download or read book Building Leadership Development Programmes written by Nigel Paine and published by Kogan Page Publishers. This book was released on 2016-11-03 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most leadership development runs on rails: courses are organized with standard content usually delivered by companies set up expressly for that purpose. Most leadership programmes fail when judged on whether they achieve lasting impact and behaviour change because what is covered is often forgotten after the programme ends. Building Leadership Development Programmes is designed to show how leadership development should work. It challenges the widely accepted notion that leadership development cannot be measured and it exemplifies how to design programmes that are in line with organizational needs and deliver lasting and measurable impact. Building Leadership Development Programmes is structured around detailed case studies from around the world that offer unique insights into the process of building effective leadership development, looking at a range of approaches from almost zero cost options to high end investment that actually works. It helps readers think through what it is that they are actually trying to achieve, offering processes to work through to establish what is necessary for their organization and take a longer view than looking for quick fixes. It features case studies including Crotonville Leadership Centre who have worked with GE, McKinsey and the Red Cross, and interviews with world authorities on leadership and talent development. Detailed guidance will help identify the right measures to ensure impact, and to adopt the right methodologies, including looking at leadership coaching, mentoring, social learning and action learning, blowing apart the idea that expensive training courses are always required.
Download or read book Economic Assessment of Election Programmes written by Johan J. Graafland and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Netherlands, the election programmes of the political parties are assessed for their economic impact by an independent economic bureau. The result of this analysis is published just before the elections take place. In this way, the voter will be protected against political parties that try to win the elections by making popular but unfounded financial promises. Economic Assessment of Election Programmes contains contributions of several distinguished economists and philosophers who consider the gains of this procedure to society. Does the analysis by the Netherlands' Bureau for Economic Policy Analysis (CPB) raise the democratic quality of the elections? Can we really be confident in the tools of economics? The last section of this volume states the opinion of representatives of the political parties. This part also clarifies why political parties voluntarily participate in this process and how they perceive the role division between the political party and CPB.

Download or read book Integrating gender into the design of cash transfer and public works programmes FAO Technical Guide 2 written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many social protection programmes, including cash transfers, public works programmes and asset transfers, target women as main beneficiaries or recipients of benefits. Extending social protection to rural populations has great potential for fostering rural women’s economic empowerment. However, to tap into this potential, more needs to be done. There is much scope for making social protection policies and programmes more gender sensitive and for better aligning them with agricultural and rural development policies to help address gender inequalities. Recognizing this potential and capitalizing on existing evidence, FAO seeks to enhance the contribution of social protection to gender equality and women’s empowerment by providing country-level support through capacity development, knowledge generation and programme support.To move forward this agenda, FAO has developed the Technical Guidance Toolkit on Gender-sensitive Social Protection Programmes to Combat Rural Poverty and Hunger. The Toolkit is designed to support SP and gender policy-makers and practitioners in their efforts to systematically apply a gender lens to SP programmes in ways that are in line with global agreements and FAO commitments to expand inclusive SP systems for rural populations. The Toolkit focuses on the role of SP in reducing gendered social inequalities, and rural poverty and hunger.
