Download or read book Working together to cut crime and deliver justice written by Great Britain: Office for Criminal Justice Reform and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-11-15 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document details the Government's strategic plan for the criminal justice system to 2011 based on four priorities: effectiveness in bringing offences to justice; engaging the public and inspiring their confidence; putting the needs of victims at the heart of the justice system; and developing simple and efficient processes which make the best use of resources, expertise and technology. To deliver efficient and effective services, the criminal justice agencies (including the police, prosecution services, courts, youth justice, probation and prison services) will need to work closely together through their local criminal justice boards (LCJBs) and other local partnerships. This will also support the Government's wider crime reduction and re-offending strategies to make communities safer, as set out in the Home Office crime strategy document "Cutting crime: a new partnership 2008-2011" (available at http://www.homeoffice.gov.uk/documents/crime-strategy-07/crime-strategy-07?view=Binary).
Download or read book Your Strategy Needs a Strategy written by Martin Reeves and published by Harvard Business Review Press. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You think you have a winning strategy. But do you? Executives are bombarded with bestselling ideas and best practices for achieving competitive advantage, but many of these ideas and practices contradict each other. Should you aim to be big or fast? Should you create a blue ocean, be adaptive, play to win—or forget about a sustainable competitive advantage altogether? In a business environment that is changing faster and becoming more uncertain and complex almost by the day, it’s never been more important—or more difficult—to choose the right approach to strategy. In this book, The Boston Consulting Group’s Martin Reeves, Knut Haanæs, and Janmejaya Sinha offer a proven method to determine the strategy approach that is best for your company. They start by helping you assess your business environment—how unpredictable it is, how much power you have to change it, and how harsh it is—a critical component of getting strategy right. They show how existing strategy approaches sort into five categories—Be Big, Be Fast, Be First, Be the Orchestrator, or simply Be Viable—depending on the extent of predictability, malleability, and harshness. In-depth explanations of each of these approaches will provide critical insight to help you match your approach to strategy to your environment, determine when and how to execute each one, and avoid a potentially fatal mismatch. Addressing your most pressing strategic challenges, you’ll be able to answer questions such as: • What replaces planning when the annual cycle is obsolete? • When can we—and when should we—shape the game to our advantage? • How do we simultaneously implement different strategic approaches for different business units? • How do we manage the inherent contradictions in formulating and executing different strategies across multiple businesses and geographies? Until now, no book brings it all together and offers a practical tool for understanding which strategic approach to apply. Get started today.
Download or read book The Planning Polity written by Mark Tewdwr-Jones and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-06-27 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planning is not a technical and value free activity. Planning is an overt political system that creates both winners and losers. The Planning Polity is a book that considers the politics of development and decision-making, and political conflicts between agencies and institutions within British town and country planning. The focus of assessment is how British planning has been formulated since the early 1990s, and provides an in-depth and revealing assessment of both the Major and Blair governments' terms of office. The book will prove to be an invaluable guide to the British planning system today and the political demands on it. Students and activists within urban and regional studies, planning, political science and government, environmental studies, urban and rural geography, development, surveying and planning, will all find the book to be an essential companion to their work.

Download or read book Greenfields Brownfields and Housing Development written by David Adams and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The location of new housing development has become one of the most intractable controversies of modern times. This book provides a powerful critique of the growing tendency to reduce the debate on the development of new housing to a mere choice between greenfield and brownfield locations. It calls for full account to be taken of such factors as the structure and organisation of the housebuilding industry, supply and demand pressures in the housing market, the contested nature of sustainability and the political character of the planning process if a truly effective housing land policy is to be devised. Drawing on theories from economics and political science, this book will provide an important reference point on the institutional context within which residential development takes place and on the concerns of planning authorities, environmentalists, housebuilders, and their customers in relation to the apparent choice between greenfield and brownfield development.
