  • - Business Process Excellence for the Millennium
    by Dr Shree Nanguneri
    £12.49

    Within any dynamic business climate, Lean and Six Sigma are symbiotic, perhaps even inseparable. Whereas Six Sigma methodologies are widely accepted as benchmarks for increasing profitability via product/service performance in every constrained area of an organization, Lean is closely associated with speed, efficiency and waste minimization. While meeting modern quality standards, corporations must simultaneously decrease lead times and become ever more proactive to evolving customer urgencies. Therefore, as manufacturing cycles get shorter and innovation accelerates, Six Sigma and Lean need to be integrated using the applied theory of constraints into the business product/service flow as Lean Six Sigma (LSS).Enter Dr. Shree Nanguneri, with his expertise in LSS methodologies and strategies and experience in LSS deployments across corporations, continents and cultures. In #LEAN SIX SIGMA tweet Book01, Dr. Shree shares insights with you derived from his team, professional, and personal experiences in LSS deployments. He focuses on DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve and Control), considered the hallmark of the LSS problem solving methodology showing how it is founded upon the premise of common people coming together for a common cause, applying common sense to achieve uncommon results. You will find his teachings equally applicable to diverse spheres including general manufacturing, product prototyping, engineering validation, production trials, final manufacturing launches, call center customer service, website back office management operations, accounts payables or receivables and sales closure cycles. You will understand what makes LSS work, where deployment brittleness could occur and what to watch out for as you speed up your business processes.By using the proven and popular tweet format, Dr. Shree has ''walked his talk.'' He has honed his personal technique of transferring knowledge, making the lessons in his book easy to absorb and assimilate. With knowledge that you can immediately apply to your work environment, this book helps you stay on top of the requirement to marry performance with speed and customer requirements so that your processes remain competitive at all times. This handy book will find its nook on every professional''s bookshelf.#LEAN SIX SIGMA tweet Book01 is part of the THiNKaha series whose 112-page books contain 140 well-thought-out quotes (tweets/ahas).

  • - Driving the Awareness and Adoption of Open Textbooks
    by Sharyn Fitzpatrick
    £12.49

    Textbook prices routinely cause sticker shock. Over the last decade, they have risen more steeply than the inflation rate and, in last year, the average textbook cost a student $62.97! While estimating the cost of a college education, today's college student needs to factor in several thousand dollars just for textbooks.Debate rages over the astronomical prices of college textbooks, and includes scrutiny of the practices of the textbook publishing industry. Powerful initiatives, including legislative solutions, have been proposed. In fact, the State of Maryland even passed the College Textbook Competition and Affordability Act of 2009. Some of the strongest movements to make textbooks accessible and affordable are open textbook initiatives, such as the Open Textbooks and Community College Consortium at http://collegeopentextbooks.org.An open textbook is one that is accessible to all. Not only is it freely available for use but educators can modify, localize or update it to suit the particular needs of their students. The ease of access and customization of open textbooks has spurred tremendous interest among professors and educationists and the demand for affordable, up-to-date textbooks is changing the landscape of how learning content is being delivered. This in turn has fueled a growing trend for open textbook adoption. Through appropriate licensing deals, authors can now offer content that remains current and can be remixed or shared, and thereby extend the reach of their textbooks to a wider, newer, more empowered audience.In '#OPEN TEXTBOOK tweet Book01,' written in the popular tweet format, Sharyn Fitzpatrick, shares with you the value of open textbooks and shows authors how to benefit from the growing demand for them. Best practices on why and how open textbooks should be adopted for today's classrooms are covered. Educators and faculty members will discover how to drive awareness and adoption of open textbooks at their own colleges. In the easy, accessible, readable style that has become the hallmark of THINKaha books, '#OPEN TEXTBOOK tweet Book01' shows authors and educators how they can participate in this win-win effort and seize this opportunity to contribute positively towards ensuring open, affordable college learning for all.'#OPEN TEXTBOOKS tweet Book01' is part of the THINKaha series whose 100-page books contain 140 well-thought-out quotes (tweets/ahas).

  • - Managing Your It Infrastructure in the Age of Complexity
    by Peter Spielvogel, Jon Haworth & Sonja Hickey
    £12.49

    Good IT is simply good business. But managing IT infrastructure has always been challenging. Virtualization and cloud computing make this even more difficult. In their daily work marketing HP Operations Center (formerly OpenView Operations), authors Peter Spielvogel, John Haworth, and Sonja Hickey frequently encounter organizations struggling with these issues. They have come to realize that IT professionals want simple actionable ideas that will deliver gains in availability, performance, and efficiency. #IT OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT tweet Book01 was written with that in mind.IT architectures are constantly evolving. Increased complexity and the dynamic nature of virtualized and cloud environments make managing the underlying IT infrastructure harder than ever. Companies need a new management approach that focuses on connecting business services and the end user experience to the underlying infrastructure, incorporating all of the layers from the application to the virtual and to the physical. The concepts of servers, storage, and networks become more fluid, and the relationships among these elements are constantly changing. Where companies could previously use different consoles to manage disparate and static silos, this becomes untenable with virtualization and the added abstraction layer in the cloud. Fortunately, there are some proven best practices that simplify IT infrastructure management in this age of complexity.Reading this book will not make you an expert on managing IT infrastructure, but it will make you think in a different way about some of your decisions, and those of your peers. If the guidance contained herein starts a discussion in your team that results in you avoiding one big mistake, then the authors will have achieved their goal.#IT OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT tweet Book01 is part of the THiNKaha series whose 120-page books contain 140 well-thought-out quotes (tweets/ahas).

  • - How Leaders Bring More Energy into Work and Life
    by Lisa Smith & Maryann Baumgarten
    £11.49

    Today's unfortunate reality, for millions of people, is that work is simply a have-to-do that pays the bills and gets in the way of doing what they really care about. This results in people becoming disengaged and disconnected from their organizations and colleagues. But what if employees could be made to see the big picture, the connection between their own efforts, and the success of their organizations? What if people could be made to feel a sense of purpose at work and to thereby become committed, sincere, loyal, and happy participants in a team effort? Authors Maryann Baumgarten and Lisa Smith know that we all feel engaged when we care and connect to something larger than ourselves. They realize that even though so many of us see work as a time- and energy-sucking drain, a few shifts in organizational behavior and direction can turn that perspective on its head.

    by Sterling Lanier
    £12.49

    Mentor...teacher...guide...friend...a coach is all of these, and more. Sterling Lanier, author of '#COACHING tweet Book01', has decades of experience coaching CEOs and CEOs-in-the-wings, and knows that coaching is no secret or magical process. Rather it is the art of inspiring, encouraging and motivating people through active listening, by asking thoughtful and thought-provoking questions and helping to set ambitious but realistic goals and action plans. It is a journey of self discovery, as much for the coach as for the person being coached.In the corporate world, a typical 'coaching' session consists of an annual manager or supervisor soliloquy in which the employee receives 'a mound of criticism sandwiched between two thin slices of praise.' Instead, as Sterling shares with us, coaching should consist of a series of frequent dialogs between employee and manager on the employee's goals, action plans, measurement milestones, alignment to corporate direction, and resources needed for improvement.In '#COACHING tweet Book01', Sterling has distilled his practical experience into bite-sized insights on the power, practices and sheer joy of coaching. Individual sections cover coaching philosophy--coaching from the heart and being fully present in the moment--and coaching practices, which reveal the tools of the trade, including such subtleties as ensuring non-judgmental listening and peeling back the layers so that clients voice the hidden issues.This little gem is written in the popular tweet format, which makes it easy to read but also, even more important, easy to immediately put to good use in your own work and life. As Sterling succinctly puts it, anyone can seize the opportunity to be a coach for someone--for a friend, a colleague, a business associate, even a family member or a child. #COACHING tweet sets you on the path to being a successful coach--here and now.'#COACHING tweet Book01' is part of the THINKaha series whose 100-page books contain 140 well-thought-out quotes (tweets/ahas).

Yet many leaders are unaware of the essential ingredients for high performing teamwork. Contrary to popular wisdom, hiring smart people and paying them well is not enough. This kind of winging it, as ''#TEAMWORK tweet Book01'' demonstrates, is not recommended when we are counting on teams for innovation, productivity, adaptability, effective resource utilization, talent growth, profitability and customer retention. As a leader or a member of a team, you need to learn what it takes to build high performing teams that support individual and organizational effectiveness, learning and growth.

    Virtually every nonprofit realizes that, pretty soon, social media will no longer be optional. Already several nonprofits ranging from small local groups to international organizations have demonstrated that social media offers unique opportunities for advocacy and fundraising, and for catalyzing change. So if your nonprofit is ready to make the leap into social media, how do you go about it?

Which is why she, along with industry expert Beth Kanter, stepped forward to put together '#SOCIALMEDIA NONPROFIT tweet,' a collection of bite-sized wisdom especially for nonprofits. Of course, for every person in your nonprofit team who is enthusiastic to take the plunge into social media, there may be a handful of naysayers. Janet's book takes that into account. In it, you will find guidance on how to convince the naysayers, how to measure the benefits of social media, how to manage volunteers and create evangelists, and best practices for using Twitter and Facebook. These last are especially valuable because efficient use of social media can work wonders for your nonprofit, while poorly-conceived or inefficient practices can be detrimental across the board.

  • - Taking Your Career from Classroom to Cubicle
    by Heather R Huhman
    £12.49

    The statistics are frightening. The National Association of Colleges and Employers' (NACE) 2009 Student Survey shows that just 19.7 percent of 2009 graduates who applied for a job actually have one. And, according to NACE's Job Outlook 2010 Fall Preview, employers expect to hire 7 percent fewer graduates from the college Class of 2010 than they hired from the Class of 2009. What's worse, this issue cannot completely be blamed on a poor economy. Entry-level hiring should have increased because many employers have laid off more expensive, experienced talent. So what's preventing new talent from entering the career marketplace?Millennials--those individuals born between 1977 and 1997 and also known as Generation Y--often expect college to teach them how to find jobs and are disappointed upon finding out this is not the case. And the career advice they do receive comes from "authority figures" (i.e., campus career center staff), whom they do not believe or trust. These graduates need practical and insightful guidance from someone who knows the challenges they face and how to overcome them."#ENTRYLEVELtweet Book01" by career expert Heather R. Huhman is a must-read for college students and recent grads who want to learn what it takes to find, land, and succeed in an entry-level career. In 140 tweet-style tips, Huhman provides a roadmap of what to do to impress hiring managers, how to create stand-out "career tools," and how to network during your job search with confidence in yourself and what you have to offer potential employers.Want to get ahead of your college colleagues?
