Sarkar D: Little Big Things in
Operational Excellence

Little Big Things in Operational Excellence

Competitive advantage is found in operations, and in the operations leaders who build resilient, adaptive, and intelligent businesses.The relentless waves of disruption in the turbulent 2020s--from the Covid-19 pandemic to AI breakthroughs and so much more--have made operations the nerve center of business survival. The companies thriving in today's volatile world are those that have transformed operations from a "silent function" into a strategic engine of resilience, innovation, growth, and competitive advantage. In this practical book, you learn how it's done.Professor of Strategy and Supply Chain Management Carlos Cordon joins the former head of operations at Nestlé, Magdi Batato, to show leaders why operations is the CEO's secret weapon and how the COO has emerged as one of the most strategically important roles in modern business.Drawing on interviews, case studies, and real-world lessons from global leaders at companies including Nestlé, Apple, Carlsberg, Danaher, and Novo Nordisk, the authors reveal how modern executives are rethinking the supply chain to be something more flexible and nonlinear; how they're reimagining manufacturing, sustainability, technology, talent, and customer responsiveness in an era when disruption is constant and adaptability is everything.From nearshoring and AI-powered decision-making to sustainable sourcing, consumer-driven operations, and resilient ecosystems, the book provides a practical framework for building operations that can withstand shocks while continuing to innovate and grow. It will guide CEOs, COOs, supply chain leaders, strategists, and anyone responsible for steering organizations through an increasingly unpredictable world.Operational resilience is now inseparable from long-term success. Operations is strategy.

Passionately Transforming Management

For years, the menopause was rarely spoken about - those who experienced it were often encouraged to do so quietly, without drawing attention to it. Whilst contemporary discussions have become more open around the subject, and gender-based medicine has made strides in its treatment, in mainstream discourse menopause is still addressed as a problem to be solved. This is often the case in the workplace, with 'menopause initiatives' being introduced in response to rising calls for action. But is the menopause even something that can be 'managed' by corporations, and does it even need to be? Passionately Transforming Management with Menopause refutes the assumption that better management of the menopause is a panacea for companies and employees. Rather, it repositions the basis of the discussion to explore how lived experiences of the menopause can transform and expand traditional parameters of management. Drawing on lived experiences from both their own lives and from those close to them, the authors address the reality of menopause both within and beyond the workplace. Using data generated from these discussions, the book investigates both the menopause management practices implemented throughout various sectors, and the holistic lives of those undergoing this transitional phase. Passionately Transforming Management with Menopause provides students, scholars and managers with an empowering and provocative guide to understanding and repurposing the topic of menopause in the workplace.

Passionately Transforming Management with Menopause

An acclaimed New York Times Magazine writer brings us into the world of the controversial technology firm Palantir and its very colorful and outspoken CEO, Alex Karp, tracing the ascent of Big Data, the rise of surveillance technology, and the shifting global balance of power in the 21st century. Palantir builds data integration software: its technology ingests vast quantities of information and quickly identifies patterns, trends, and connections that might elude the human eye. Founded in 2003 to help the US government in the war on terrorism—an early investor was the CIA—Palantir is now a $400 billion global colossus whose software is used by major intelligence services (including the Mossad), the US military, dozens of federal agencies, and corporate giants like Airbus and BP. From AI to counterterrorism to climate change to immigration to financial fraud to the future of warfare, the company is at the nexus of the most critical issues of the 21st century. Its CEO, Alex Karp, is a distinctive figure on the global business scene. A biracial Jew who is also severely dyslexic, Karp has built Palantir into a tech giant despite having no background in either business or computer science. Instead, he’s a trained philosopher who has become known for his strongly held views on a range of issues and for his willingness to grapple with the moral and ethical implications of Palantir’s work. Those questions have taken on added urgency during the Trump era, which has also brought attention to the political activism of Karp’s close friend and Palantir cofounder Peter Thiel. In The Philosopher in the Valley, journalist Michael Steinberger explores the world of Alex Karp, Palantir, and the future that they are leading us toward. It is an urgent and illuminating work about one of Silicon Valley’s most secretive and powerful companies, whose technology is at the leading edge of the surveillance state.

Global Health Diplomacy

There has been an increasing movement to place results at the heart of the agenda for social investments and development. Though development has a compelling value proposition a year of life can often be saved for a few hundred dollars there is skepticism to its ability to measure and manage programs for results. It is this skepticism which is at the heart of debates on the future of development. Managing Development for Results describes the results agenda in development, measurement and management approaches, and challenges on the ground. It is an easily accessible book which provides a comprehensive view on the innovative approach used to demonstrate compelling development results. The first section of the book covers the history and key components of the results agenda. The second section assesses how this is put into practice with innovative examples from global initiatives, foundations, civil society, private sector and country case studies. Finally, the book assesses the future role of the results-based agenda for a wide variety of development actors. It argues that results provide a "common currency" to coordinate and focus increasingly diverse partners on the core value of development, and communicate this to a wider audience. How results are built into development programs and the future development agenda will be illustrated as well. This book aims to target a wide audience in development, practitioners internationally and locally, management, business and philanthropy and those interested in international relations. It would also aim to appeal to a general audience interested in the future of development and whether it can achieve compelling results.

Managing Development For Results

Grounded in the authors' decades of experience, Crossroads in Global Health reflects on the transformative power of medicine, the complexities of global health engagement, and the enduring human impulse to alleviate suffering. The authors examine the tension between short-term relief and durable system change, and show how reframing global health as a marketplace, powered by data, analytics, and AI, can better match resources to need and turn goodwill into measurable impact.Key Features:· Explores the history, evolution, and critiques of global health, with a focus on discrete philanthropic medical missions.· Examines the landscape of global health needs and resources, shaped by logistics, incentives, and institutional structures.· Reflects on the authors' personal journeys in global health, offering insights into the challenges and lessons learned from decades of experience.· Proposes innovative approaches to harnessing data and technology to create a more efficient and accountable marketplace for global health philanthropy.· Balances the importance of systemic solutions with the moral imperative of immediate care, emphasizing the enduring value of direct human connection in medicine.Building on the authors' previous works, including the World Compendium of Healthcare Facilities and Nonprofit Organizations, this book is an essential resource for medical practitioners, academics, and professionals in the non-profit, public, and private sectors. It offers a compelling call to action for those seeking to make a meaningful impact in global health, while honoring the profound responsibility and transformative potential of the medical profession.

Pragmatic Solutions in a Complex World

Crossroads in Global Health

"What an interesting agenda for this meeting." "Sustainability is a priority for our company." "We care deeply about our customers." Let's face it: We all lie. Sometimes to save face, to get out of a scrape or to protect someone's feelings, and sometimes for more malicious reasons. Generally, however, we only expect people to lie under certain circumstances, and we expect our professional environments to be beacons of truthful and honest behaviour. Deceit, untruth and disinformation have become part and parcel of the everyday political agenda. World leaders and business magnates unabashedly lie and peddle misinformation, from climate change denialism to anti-vaccine propaganda. In Passionately Transforming Management with Lies, Professor Johan Alvehus recognizes that such things are not only going on at the grand political stage - instead arguing that the utility of lies, deception and manipulation can provide key lessons for anyone interested in leadership. The author delves into differing philosophical perspectives on the morality of lying, before examining the various ways in which falsehoods find their way into our modern workplaces. Ultimately, we must begin re-assessing our professional hierarchies with a new clarity by rejecting the notion of a leader as a morally superior concept automatically deserving of adulation. We need to recognize that lies and manipulation are fundamental elements of accomplishing things in organizations. Even before working life starts, its truthfulness is dubious - who doesn't polish their CV to give a better impression? Bypassing formal structures, ensuring certain people are left out of decision processes, spreading non-factual 'visions' and lying to keep one's position safe are all essential for the accomplished manager. Passionately Transforming Management with Lying provides students, scholars and managers with a concise and provocative guide to identifying, utilising and manipulating bullshit culture.
