Resource-ful Consulting Working with your Presence and Identity in Consulting to Change

Resource-ful Consulting Working with your Presence and Identity in Consulting to Change

Consultants and practitioners working with change can feel at a loss as to how to help their clients move forward. Organisations get stuck in routine ways even when they have innovations in mind. Consultants get stuck in familiar interventions which no longer prove stimulating or effective. Such challenges to practice can preoccupy and reinforce these stuck positions. Drawing on the authors' experiences of working with the professional development of consultants and change-agents over many years this book provides an asset-based approach to consulting where the resources to work at this 'stuckness' come from the way that we think about and use ourselves: our Identity and our Presence. The authors propose that developing capacities to recognise and analyse who we bring into our consulting and how we bring ourselves is central to resource-ful practice. Without a skill-ful integration of these resources the potential for change can be compromised. In handbook format the book is structured in seven sections: Potential Space Identity Presence Role Space Practice Change and Future Developments. | Resource-ful Consulting Working with your Presence and Identity in Consulting to Change

Introduction to Project Management A Source Book for Traditional PM Basics

Introduction to Project Management A Source Book for Traditional PM Basics

This book presents the fundamentals of project management in simple language and an easy-to-understand format. It is targeted principally at those who are learning or desiring to learn project management as well as those who are already taking project management as a course of study or as a profession. It covers all the basic aspects of project management including the core areas prescribed by the Project Management Institute (PMI) in the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) sixth edition. Although the PMBOK Guide seventh edition has significantly shifted focus from a process based standard to a principle based standard it does not invalidate nor replace the detailed knowledge base contained in the sixth edition which substantially emphasizes project management processes and knowledge areas.

The sections of the book are arranged in order of Project Management Processes as they fall within the respective Project Management Knowledge Areas. Experienced project manager Davies Igberaese presents all the basic content of traditional project management in a straightforward practical sequence as a typical project manager would go about the processes of initiating planning executing monitoring and closing a project without losing sight of the iterative nature of project management. The inclusion of Project Management Templates gives students and other users of the book the confidence required to effectively understand the basics of managing a wide variety of projects across disciplines including construction building industrial engineering petroleum engineering software engineering information technology business administration and event management.

The book is the first worldwide publication of a complex theory of management aesthetics in humanistic management based on the aesthetics and arts approach allowing for a complete and systemic understanding of the management art and art management phenomena.

The main goal of this monograph is to create a holistic model that organises the issues of management aesthetics and shows the interdependence of the components of this model. The role of this model should be to perform a central function for a complete and systemic understanding of the phenomenon of management aesthetics as well as to perform the function of a field based on which analysis of individual issues in the area of management aesthetics is conducted. The critical component of this holistic model is Maria Gołaszewska’s theory of the aesthetic situation. Two theses of the book are the following: (1) the theory of aesthetics and artistic practice have the potential to enrich the theory and practice of management with qualitative components through deep immersion in the world of values and (2) management theory and practice have the potential to enrich the theory of aesthetics and artistic practice with efficiency components. | Humanistic Management Organization and Aesthetics Art of Management and Management of Art
