Book Engineering Management

Download or read book Engineering Management written by Hans J. Thamhain and published by Wiley-Interscience. This book was released on 1992 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Competing effectively in a complex global marketplace requires more than just having technological parity with foreign countries. It also requires the effective management of that technology, the people, the organizations, processes, and overall resources. Modern management tools have been developed that can respond to this challenge, but many of today's busy managers, caught up in the necessary rush to generate new products, processes, and services, haven't heard the good news. Hans Thamhain's Engineering Management gets the good word out - clearly and forcefully. He skillfully combines 20 years of R&D and technical management experience with eight years of field research, to show you how to manage technological developments and lead technical personnel in a team-oriented work environment. The book integrates engineering methods with modern management tools and techniques to forge a powerful approach for dealing effectively with the many interrelated variables involved in the management of today's technology-based organization. Engineering Management gets the word out in the most direct way possible - including checklists, figures, tables, forms, practical recipes, case histories, and simulations that turn concepts into practical prescriptions that you can use at work. With each successive chapter, you'll grow more confident in your ability to lead and motivate your workforce; stimulate innovative performance; oversee technical projects and engineering work; manage new product developments faster and more cost effectively; exercise financial control over projects; measure financial control over projects; effectively utilize computer-based decision support systems; allocate your peopleand other resources most effectively; understand joint responsibilities, organizational interfaces, and team buildings; integrate total quality management efforts, manage conflict, change, and development; develop winning bid proposals - and more. The appendices in Engineering Management build on the principles and techniques discussed in the book's 15 chapters, providing management guidelines in such areas as project planning, tracking and control, as well as new business acquisition. A sweeping mandate for improving technology-based organizations through the effective control of their resources, Engineering Management should be required reading for every engineering, technical, product, project, and R&D manager. It will also prove to be an important text for instructors of advanced undergraduate courses in engineering, business, and management.

Book Wireless Independent Living for a Greying Population

Download or read book Wireless Independent Living for a Greying Population written by Lara Srivastava and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is widely known today that not only are the aged ageing, or the old getting older, but they are also increasing in number the world over. At the same time, proper care and support for our aged is increasingly at risk. Without some form of support, the quantitative extension of life cannot be matched by a qualitative one. This may mean that the opportunity provided by a longer life is squandered, and life itself, of course, is nothing if not opportunity. Societies find that self-sufficiency and independence not only contribute to individual well-being, but are also economically desirable due to the resultant increase in productivity.The challenges of daily living for a growing population of the aged form the basis of the independent living platform, the AGE@HOME platform, which is described in this book. The platform combines both existing and emerging technologies suitable for the home. Its use and application is considered in the wider context of Web 2.0, the internet of things, and other elements of the burgeoning digital world. It is time that a holistic and multi-disciplinary approach to this constantly enlarging area of human existence is taken.This book is written for researchers and designers of wireless tools, analog and digital circuits as well as academics who are active in the various fields of Human Sciences.Foreword"This book appears at the right moment when several developments have made age and its consequences an important element of human existence. It makes for informative reading, being based on considerations related to independence for the aged and the application of emerging technologies to enhance this independence......."From the foreword by:Houlin ZhaoDeputy Secretary-General of theInternational Telecommunication Union

Book Modelling Accelerated Proficiency in Organisations

Download or read book Modelling Accelerated Proficiency in Organisations written by Dr Raman K Attri and published by Speed To Proficiency Research: S2Pro©. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a research thesis of a large-scale study conducted with over 50 large organizations in 7 countries with 80 business leaders to understand how businesses speed up the proficiency of their employees to meet business challenges. The book describes a start-to-end research study that explored the concept of 'accelerated proficiency' of employees in organizations. The book is organized into five chapters. The book introduces the concept of accelerated proficiency in a business context in light of reviews of four decades of classic studies. The research methodology to identify sources, recruit participants, and the mechanism to collect as well as analyze data have been explained in detail. The book reveals six business practices implemented by organizations across the board that seem to make a major impact in shortening the time to proficiency of employees. Important observations and findings have been discussed as implications in regards to how organizations orchestrated six business practices as an input-output-feedback system to reduce the time-to-proficiency of the workforce. The book briefly explains how these six practices were implemented through a set of twenty-four strategies in various contexts. The concepts and findings discussed in this book contribute significantly to the body of knowledge on accelerated proficiency. In particular, the conceptual model and the framework developed in this study can be implemented across a range of contexts, business sectors, job types, and settings to reduce the time-to-proficiency of the workforce.

Book excerpt: The corporate start-up incubator is currently developing in large companies as an essential approach to open innovation. It faces a global system involving varied contexts, issues and actors. Its implementation is an art and to succeed the corporate incubator must become a real "interaction architect". Using testimonials and real case studies, the author takes a dive into the structural and social mysteries of corporate incubators. By analyzing the complex mechanisms of interactions, this book decrypts and reveals the keys to the success of these devices and to opening innovation in a broad sense. The concept of an “interaction architect” is related to the art of building fruitful interactions within human systems. Being aware that social systems exist is good, but knowing how to manage them is better.
