Book excerpt: the model of the true learning organization. A few years ago, a new learning initiative came to aerospace giant Rockwell Collins. "Built to Learn" is the story of why it stayed. Once regarded as a change-averse organization, Rockwell could have been the poster child for old-fashioned corporate training: lackluster offerings in bland classroom setting, with little connection to the strategic goals of the organization. But in less than three years, Rockwell's training offerings had expanded by 400 percent, instruction was available 24/7 to more than 17,000 employees around the world, and training and development expenses had decreased by 23 million dollars. The process they followed was refreshingly simple. "Built to Learn" presents their ten-step approach in clear, accessible terms, explaining the reasoning behind each step, the way the step was implemented at Rockwell, and how the same step can be adapted and applied in any organization. Using the same steps, Rockwell reinvented its floundering training program and made it a strategic epicenter that has since been emulated at top companies worldwide. "Built to Learn" is the key to achieving that same results in any organization. Following the steps, you will learn how to define your core objectives, plan your strategy, select your vendor, build the business case, implement the plan, and leverage experience, feedback and new developments.

Download or read book Beyond the Lean Revolution written by Deborah J. Nightingale and published by AMACOM Div American Mgmt Assn. This book was released on 2011 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most organizations are engaged in change efforts-often focused solely on eliminating waste in specific departments or "silos." That's the "lean paradigm," and while it's a good place to start, enterprise transformation goes much further. It begins with the big picture: What are the strategic objectives? How is the enterprise performing against those objectives? How should it be? Who are the stakeholders and what do they value? Then it moves forward toward an audacious vision of the enterprise's future. Based on years of research and implementation, Beyond the Lean Revolution provides a roadmap for achieving sustainable, bottom-line results, delivering value to stakeholders, and reaching that future vision. Filled with illuminating examples, the book moves well beyond traditional lean thinking, showing readers how to: Ensure senior leadership commitment * Assess the enterprise's current state * Analyze stakeholder values * Develop a future vision * Create a plan for transformation From inception to implementation and beyond, this book provides a holistic framework for bridging the gap from mere change ... to genuine transformation.

Download or read book Integrating Program Management and Systems Engineering written by and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-02-21 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrate critical roles to improve overall performance in complex engineering projects Integrating Program Management and Systems Engineering shows how organizations can become more effective, more efficient, and more responsive, and enjoy better performance outcomes. The discussion begins with an overview of key concepts, and details the challenges faced by System Engineering and Program Management practitioners every day. The practical framework that follows describes how the roles can be integrated successfully to streamline project workflow, with a catalog of tools for assessing and deploying best practices. Case studies detail how real-world companies have successfully implemented the framework to improve cost, schedule, and technical performance, and coverage of risk management throughout helps you ensure the success of your organization's own integration strategy. Available course outlines and PowerPoint slides bring this book directly into the academic or corporate classroom, and the discussion's practical emphasis provides a direct path to implementation. The integration of management and technical work paves the way for smoother projects and more positive outcomes. This book describes the integrated goal, and provides a clear framework for successful transition. Overcome challenges and improve cost, schedule, and technical performance Assess current capabilities and build to the level your organization needs Manage risk throughout all stages of integration and performance improvement Deploy best practices for teams and systems using the most effective tools Complex engineering systems are prone to budget slips, scheduling errors, and a variety of challenges that affect the final outcome. These challenges are a sign of failure on the part of both management and technical, but can be overcome by integrating the roles into a cohesive unit focused on delivering a high-value product. Integrating Program Management with Systems Engineering provides a practical route to better performance for your organization as a whole.
