Book Description

In From Strategy to Change-the last in a series-Daniel James Rowley comes full circle in defining his unique vision of the strategic planning process. Written with Herbert Sherman, From Strategy to Change shows how to take the next step after a strategic plan has been formulated. The authors clearly show how to implement a strategic plan that will meet the myriad challenges of today's complex higher education environment and spell success for the academy. "It is amazing that while sports teams of colleges and universities meticulously plan their contests against their opponents, their institutions' administrators don't spend nearly enough time or effort in creating and implementing a strategy. Institutions of higher education seem to be missing the requisite tools to develop and activate their 'play book.' With this new age of globally available real-time information, it becomes increasingly more essential to have a map to help go over and around obstacles, avoid the ever-present pitfalls, and effectively aid in selecting the best route. Rowley and Sherman provide such tools in this exciting and comprehensive new book. I wish that when I was a department chair, president of a faculty senate, and dean that this superb work was available. My function in planning would have been so much easier and more rewarding." —Barry R. Armandi, Distinguished Teaching Professor, SUNY - Old Westbury

Book Description

The Project Management Institute (PMI®) Research Conference 2002, Frontiers of Project Management Research and Application, co-chaired by Dennis P. Slevin, PhD, Jeffrey K. Pinto, PhD, and David I. Cleland, PhD, held 14-17 July in Seattle, Washington USA, brought together top researchers and practitioners in the project management field. Their purpose was to discuss new learning, ideas and practices, as well as answer questions in areas that may still need more work. This publication brings their research to your fingertips.

The evolution of any profession depends on the breadth and depth of its research. The baselines must be established and then tested. Ideas must grow and change to remain up-to-date with current issues and business practices in the world. Committed to moving forward, these researchers present work in many different areas including:

• Project portfolio management
• Guiding theory and research
• Management challenges in project-intensive companies
• Motivation and job satisfaction
• Trust
• Project termination
• E-business
• Virtual project organizations
• Hybrid learning
• Buyer-Seller relationships
• Multi-project management

The focus of every PMI Research Conference is project/program management research that advances the body of knowledge and practice of the project management profession. This research will help practitioners, researchers and others understand how the learning from project management research is applied in practical situations, and where new or additional research learning is occurring and is needed.

Book Description

This first-of-its-kind publication from the Project Management Institute (PMI®) brings together 28 research papers from internationally known and well-established researchers in project management from around the globe. From them you will glean an insightful overview of past and current research findings, and take an eye-opening excursion along frontiers fertile for future investigation. You will also find a wealth of practical information that you can use now in managing your projects, be they organizing meetings, producing new products, or building skyscrapers.

Here are just a few of the many helpful insights awaiting your discovery within The Frontiers of Project Management Research:

• To know the field, read Project Management literature past and present. Over 3500 project management research articles have been published since 1960—the 1990s produced the largest volume, and certainly the most current information.

• Recognize the importance of measuring project success. Many factors contribute to it, but identifying and measuring the key ones for each project remains a critical, and sometimes elusive, achievement.

• Think project management is challenging now — wait `til tomorrow. Project management challenges are likely to increase in the future as projects, project environments, technology, and people relationships grow in complexity.

• Tailor your communications to key stakeholders' levels of interest and power. Devote considerable time and attention to a project's key players. Specifically define, demonstrate, and communicate the benefits from investments in project management to senior managers and others.

• Take the time to develop trusting relationships. Research confirms it—trust leads to better client relationships, accelerated time to market, and lower project costs.

• Planning is our most important process. Among all the research articles published in project management over the past 40 years, planning led over leading, controlling, executing, and improving.

Whatever your project management interests or informational needs, The Frontiers of Project Management Research offers you stimulating ideas for tomorrow and innovative approaches from today, all at your fingertips.

Book Description

This volume carries on the history of the House of Rothschild as revealed by the relevant documents from 1830 up to the peace that concluded the Franco-Prussian War in 1871. In the writing of this volume, the Rothschild families have brought no influence of any kind to bear; the author's aim has been to portray without prejudice or partiality the tremendous part that the House played in the events of the nineteenth century. Original documents and letters that had been intercepted have occasionally afforded particularly illuminating revelations; although, in the case of extracts from some of the letters, it is necessary to bear in mind that the originals were probably carefully altered by the Rothschilds themselves, with the deliberate intention of making upon persons like Metternich a definite impression such as would assist them in carrying out their plans. Seen in this light they are no less instructive and characteristic of the methods of the House than the more ingenuous documents that undoubtedly constitute a large proportion of those used in this work.

The epilogue which appears at the end of the book makes no claim to continue the treatment of the subject on the same lines; it merely attempts to bring out one or two of the more striking moves executed by the House of Rothschild on the political chessboard during the sixty years leading up to the present day, moves which show how the House, in spite of growing difficulties, vanishing influence, and the powerful competition of younger and richer firms, has endeavored until the most recent times to maintain its position, to influence international policies, and although with diminishing success, to drive them along the path which corresponded to the interests of the bank.

Book Description

Intense commercialism has been a perennial hallmark of the mass media ever since its inception and throughout the twentieth century the techniques and strategies of the dominant players in the world of media and advertising have become increasingly sophisticated, with the development of multinational media corporations and electronic media opportunities. Developments have been so rapid that scholars are only now beginning to come to terms with the full impact of media commercialization as a global phenomenon cutting across traditional cultural, economic, and social boundaries. Critical Studies in Media Commercialism brings together an impressive collection of essays that explore the growing complexity, range, and reach of media commercialism in today's world. From the corporate conglomeration of today's media giants to the effects of advertising on politics, society, and the individual, this collection provides a comprehensive and insightful critique of both the impact and the limits of media commercialism in the modern world.

An important approach to media.......2006-03-31

This is a good collection of media essays with a marxist and technophobe bent that includes articles by some of the most important scholars working in media criticism today. It points up the difficulties and complexities of the complete domination of media by commerce. In addition, it brings the material into the age of globalization rather than looking at media as single technological units. One area I think that it misses is the cell phone revolution, because that could create a counter model to the centralizing aspects of commercial media.
