Book Gerenciamento de Projetos de Mapeamento e Redesenho de Processos

Download or read book Gerenciamento de Projetos de Mapeamento e Redesenho de Processos written by Carlos Magno da Silva Xavier and published by Brasport. This book was released on 2016-12-22 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As reestruturações e implantações de processos nas organizações devem ser tratadas como projetos. Os métodos tradicionais de gerenciamento de projetos não estão atendendo às expectativas dos clientes, conforme resultado da pesquisa PMSURVEY.ORG, que comprova que os problemas mais comuns dos projetos são de comunicação. Devemos, então, abandonar os métodos tradicionais? Na verdade, não. É impensável achar que não precisamos fazer cronogramas, gerenciar riscos ou até mesmo combinar escopo. O que devemos fazer é utilizar métodos híbridos, ou seja, que combinem artefatos tradicionais de metodologias simples (tais como da metodologia Basic Methodware®) com métodos ágeis (tais como Scrum) e com melhores formas de comunicação e colaboração com os stakeholders (tais como Canvas e Kanban). Neste livro utilizamos um modelo Canvas para a concepção de projetos de mapeamento e redesenho de processos, em conjunto com a nossa metodologia (de apenas 13 processos), que incorpora uma das ferramentas mais conhecidas de melhoria contínua: o ciclo PDCA (PLAN – DO – CHECK – ACT) da qualidade. Tivemos a preocupação de estabelecer, no início do livro, um nivelamento básico do conhecimento dos leitores acerca dos conceitos de gerenciamento de projetos. Para que a metodologia pudesse ser mais bem entendida e aplicada, utilizamos dois casos: a reestruturação do processo de matrícula em uma faculdade; e o mapeamento de processos, com a proposição de melhorias operacionais, em uma empresa de projetos de engenharia. Metodologia alinhada com o PMBOK® GuideUma versão prática e simplificada de como iniciar, planejar, executar, monitorar, controlar e encerrar projetosIdeal para estudantes e gerentes de projetos de pequeno e médio porteContém guias de como utilizar a metodologia nos softwares MS-Project e Net ProjectUtilização do modelo Canvas para a concepção do projeto

Download or read book Framing Age written by Iris Loffeier and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-05-12 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ageing populations have gradually become a major concern in many industrialised countries over the past fifty years, drawing the attention of both politics and science. The target of a raft of health and social policies, older people are often identified as a specific, and vulnerable, population. At the same time, ageing has become a specialisation in many disciplines - medicine, sociology, psychology, to name but three – and a discipline of its own: gerontology. This book questions the framing of old age by focusing on the relationships between policy making and the production of knowledge. The first part explores how the meeting of scientific expertise and the politics of old age anchors the construction of both individual and collective relationships to the future. Part II brings to light the many ways in which issues relating to ageing can be instrumentalised and ideologised in several public debate arenas. Part III argues that scientific knowledge itself composes with objectivity, bringing ideologies of its own to the table, and looks at how this impacts discourse about ageing. In the final part, the contributors discuss how the frames can themselves be experienced at different levels of the division of labour, whether it is by people who work on them (legislators or scientists), by people working with them (professional carers) or by older people themselves. Unpacking the political and moral dimensions of scientific research on ageing, this cutting-edge volume brings together a range of multidisciplinary, European perspectives, and will be of use to all those interested in old age and the social sciences.

Book Food and Urbanism

  • Author : Susan Parham
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2015-02-26
  • ISBN : 0857854747
  • Pages : 377 pages

Download or read book Food and Urbanism written by Susan Parham and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-26 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cities are home to over fifty percent of the world's population, a figure which is expected to increase enormously by 2050. Despite the growing demand on urban resources and infrastructure, food is still often overlooked as a key factor in planning and designing cities. Without incorporating food into the design process – how it is grown, transported, and bought, cooked, eaten and disposed of – it is impossible to create truly resilient and convivial urbanism. Moving from the table and home garden to the town, city, and suburbs, Food and Urbanism explores the connections between food and place in past and present design practices. The book also looks to future methods for extending the 'gastronomic' possibilities of urban space. Supported by examples from places across the world, including the UK, Norway, Germany, France, Spain, Portugal, Greece, Romania, Australia and the USA, the book offers insights into how the interplay of physical design and socio-spatial practices centred around food can help to maintain socially rich, productive and sustainable urban space. Susan Parham brings together the latest research from a number of disciplines – urban planning, food studies, sociology, geography, and design – with her own fieldwork on a range of foodscapes to highlight the fundamental role food has to play in shaping the urban future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is widespread consensus in the international scientific community that climate change is happening and that abrupt and irreversible impacts are already set in motion. What part does education have to play in helping alleviate rampant climate change and in mitigating its worst effects? In this volume, contributors review and reflect upon social learning from and within their fields of educational expertise in response to the concerns over climate change. They address the contributions the field is currently making to help preempt and mitigate the environmental and social impacts of climate change, as well as how it will continue to respond to the ever changing climate situation. With a special foreword by Desmond Tutu, Archbishop Emeritus of Cape Town.
