Download or read book The Project Management Office PMO written by Monique Aubry, PhD, MPM and published by Project Management Institute. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since project management offices began to appear in organizations over the last decade, project management practitioners and their organizations have been asking how to structure project management offices (PMOs) and what functions to assign them. In The Project Management Office (PMO): A Quest For Understanding, authors Brian Hobbs and Monique Aubry address these questions, providing a look at how PMOs exist today, and some clues about how and why they're changing. Of particular interest to practitioners, the authors address the roles that PMOs play in organizations, which provides valuable insights for better creating, structuring and governing PMOs. When designing a PMO, an organization has a variety of choices regarding the PMO's structure and role assignment. By providing a way to define PMOs by type, this research explores how to set up and define a PMO, depending upon the specific type of PMO The authors discuss the many bases for the types of PMOs, including structural characteristics and functions, and how these types affect the PMO's role in the organization.

Download or read book Ethics Psyche and Social Responsibility written by Ana Maria Davila Gomez and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-05-23 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last few decades have seen significant changes in the structure of business organizations, including downsizing, outsourcing and flattened management structures. The effects on employees have been considerable. In this context the importance of the psychological contract between employer and employee has been overlooked, and there is uncertainty about what can be done to bring about changes to this contract and ultimately the future of organizations. This important book considers the psychological aspects of organizational life, particularly in the context of firms' ethical behaviour and its implications for corporate social responsibility. The authors consider the effects of corporate activity and change on individuals, not just in their working lives, but also in their family and social lives. They address a diverse number of topics from a variety of theoretical standpoints in an ongoing attempt to redress this neglected field of research.

Download or read book La gestion strat gique du changement written by Michel Arcand and published by . This book was released on 2024-08-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La gestion du changement représente un défi majeur pour l'ensemble des organisations privées et publiques. Les études scientifiques nous montrent, avec éloquence, qu'il est très difficile de gérer adéquatement le changement. Amener l'humain à accepter les orientations multiples poursuivies par les firmes représente un défi titanesque. Les transformations qui nous sont imposées par un chamboulement toujours plus important des environnements de la firme ne font qu'ajouter à cette complexité que devront assumer les leaders et autres gestionnaires d'entreprises. Changer aujourd'hui, ce n'est pas que s'adapter, c'est aussi faire table rase de nos croyances, de nos valeurs et de nos façons de faire. Afin d'y faire face, le véritable agent de changement devra développer des compétences. Dans ce livre, nous aborderons les intelligences multiples du changement. Ces niveaux d'intelligence pourront servir de levier aux agents de changement. Dans un premier temps, nous parlerons de l'intelligence conceptuelle. Ce type d'intelligence procure aux agents de changement les outils leur permettant, notamment, de comprendre les logiques historiques propres à cette discipline (chap. 1), d'apprivoiser les théories du changement et les différentes définitions et conceptions épistémologiques du changement (chap. 2), de saisir l'importance de la recherche de l'équilibre (chap. 3), d'évaluer le rôle des leaders dans le succès des changements (chap. 4) et d'analyser les facteurs à la base d'une prise de décision hautement satisfaisante (chap. 5). Dans un deuxième temps, nous verrons aussi ce que nous nommons l'intelligence stratégique. Ainsi, nous présenterons l'importance de la vision et l'analyse diagnostique (chap. 6), tout comme le choix et l'analyse stratégique des interventions (chap. 7). Finalement, nous aborderons l'intelligence opérationnelle. Cette logique opérationnelle permet de relever les défis de la mise en oeuvre du changement. Cette dernière requiert tout d'abord une compréhension approfondie de la résistance individuelle au changement (chap. 8), mais aussi une analyse détaillée des activités pragmatiques telles que le développement et la formation de l'équipe de changement, la gestion politique des parties prenantes, la gestion des indicateurs de changement ainsi que les différentes tactiques telles que la communication, la formation, la mobilisation et l'accompagnement des acteurs touchés par les transformations (chap. 9).
