Agile ways of working that amplify impact

An expert-led, practical guide to management that redefines what it means to lead people with purpose and impact.

The Good Boss Project

Passionately Transforming Management

The allure of crime is undeniable. From news headlines to true crime podcasts, crime has a way of entrapping our interest and imagination. An exploration of the lessons that managers can learn from organised crime, Passionately Transforming Management with Crime addresses how criminal enterprises engage with leadership and innovation, and how popular representations of crime affect our perceptions of management and organisation. Alf Rehn's enticing text explores crime from a number of angles - historical, cultural and economic - to better understand the link between business and crime, and the lessons that can be shared. It looks to crime both as a source of inspiration for entrepreneurship and organisation, and as an influence on management through iconographies, legends and storytelling. The book also debunks common misconceptions about the business of crime, and touches on the dangers of romanticising criminal endeavours. Following an examination of criminals in history and fiction, Passionately Transforming Management with Crime progresses to discuss why we are attracted to crime, how crime mirrors legitimate businesses, and what we can learn from the criminal underworld, both real and fictional. Passionately Transforming Management with Crime offers a compelling and novel approach to management that provides valuable insights for practicing managers, professionals, advanced postgraduate students and scholars in Management, Critical Management Studies and Organisation Studies. Witty and engaging, this text is a fascinating read for those interested in discovering the management lessons to be learnt from Jean Genet, Biggie Smalls and Grand Theft Auto.

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

Domain-specific Bodies Of Knowledge In Project Management

This book brings together, develops, and consolidates important core common knowledge components in construction management, with the aim of developing a knowledge domain specific to the concepts of circular economy (CE) and reverse logistics (RL). It places emphasis on the following knowledge domains: foundation knowledge domain; procedural knowledge domain; and theoretical knowledge domain. This book goes further than others in integrating the two themes of CE and RL in integrating the latest research and developments in both these 'Circular Economy' and 'Reverse Logistics' areas.The issue of construction demolition waste and the detrimental impact of the construction industry is a global one; in fact, the construction industry is responsible for over 30% of the extraction of natural resources, and 25% of solid waste generated. This waste has significantly aggravated adverse environmental impacts, including pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. To mitigate this, there is an urgent need for construction organizations to transition from a linear economy to a circular economy. This book elaborates on RL and CE as remedial strategies for waste recovery. This book will make a difference compared to other books on these two themes of 'Circular Economy' and 'Reverse Logistics' areas as its anchored-on knowledge domains. It is a must-read for policy makers, students, and construction management researchers and practitioners.

The need for resilience at organisational, department and individual level has never been greater. Geopolitical conflict, climate change, supply chain disruption and political instability are just a handful of the risks that leaders must mitigate to ensure stable business operation and optimum effectiveness. Project resilience refers to the ability of a project or initiative to anticipate, adapt and recover from unexpected challenges, disruptions or uncertainties. It involves the capacity to withstand shocks, maintain functionality in the face of adversity, and quickly recover to a stable state. Resilient projects underpin resilient organisations; a resilient organisation produces sustainable competitive advantage. This book offers a structured framework - the Project Resilience Maturity Model - to assess and enhance resilience in organisations. The authors begin by considering different approaches to project resilience, and by identifying potential tensions therein. In the second part, methods of sustaining project resilience are examined, focusing on the perspective of the project manager, personal responsibility and leadership. The latter part of the textbook provides practical tools and applications to assess and enhance project resilience. Throughout, the authors employ a pedagogical framework designed to ensure maximum effectiveness for students and practitioners. Chapters are organised to reflect the evolution of project resilience maturity and concepts are introduced in a sequential order that builds on what has come before, with Key Takeaways summarising each chapter's most critical points. Fictional case studies illustrate how topics can be implemented in a project management setting, while Key and Dormant Tensions highlight potential blind spots. Demystifying complex topics without sacrificing scholarly rigour, Project Resilience provides you with a strategic approach to ensuring projects are well-equipped to withstand uncertainties and adapt to dynamic conditions. It is the perfect textbook to support advanced Project Management and Organisational Resilience courses, and to provide practical methods for leading responsible organisations.

Boost your AI quotient for AI-ready leadership.Most leaders know that AI can deliver efficiency gains, making it a company priority in a challenging business environment. But the pace of change is outstripping their ability to adapt. More than 75% of leaders report that AI is creating challenges they have never faced before and these new challenges, anxieties and uncertainty about the future are creating a 'readiness gap'.AI-Q, your AI Quotient, is both a new metric for assessing readiness and a framework for building it. Use the AI-Q MAP (Mindset, Abilities and Practices) to: <ul> <li> assess where you are today </li> <li> identify the critical gaps, and </li> <li> build the leadership and organizational capabilities you need to ensure your AI investments deliver returns. </li> </ul>Futurist and economist Athena Peppes draws on research from leading institutions and expert interviews to offer a new approach to AI-readiness, the new critical leadership capability in the human+AI era.

The eight postures that make management conversations work (and how to choose the right one every time)

The Deliberate Manager

A guide to organizational transformation targeting the country's trillion-dollar stagnancy problem-the "frozen middle" of corporate America-and offering strategies to overcome bureaucratic setbacks that hinder innovation, profit, and fulfillment Corporate America is stuck. Initiatives are stalling out, strategic plans are fizzling, and even the most promising innovations get buried under bureaucracy. Worse still, profit and employee satisfaction are trending lower. Sound familiar? This is the impact of the "frozen middle"-the critical layer of management caught between high-level leadership's vision and frontline employees' execution. That corporate paralysis traps passionate managers in inertia and stymies senior leadership. And every year it's costing companies billions. As experts in organizational transformation, Jimmy Leppert and Justin Wasserman have spent their careers figuring out how to thaw the frozen middle. Their consulting firm, Empactful Advisors, has led major organizations-including Chevron, Merck, and the Department of Defense-to generate more than $5 billion in cost savings and revenue growth. The key to their success comes from aligning senior leadership and middle management, using empathy and practical frameworks to illuminate the blocks that both sides face, and showing how they can shift from utter disconnect to collaborative goal setting that helps all parties-as well as the company-hit their targets. In Thaw, Leppert and Wasserman share their field-tested methods for turning strategic goals into tangible outcomes. Along the way, they offer a road map for employees at all levels to learn how to move through the bottlenecks that hold their organizations back and facilitate meaningful change. Middle managers will be empowered to unlock stalled careers, and senior leaders will learn how to galvanize their workforce and achieve bold, accelerated change. In the age of AI, a playbook for improving-and celebrating-human contribution is more essential than ever. Sharp, confident, and timely, Thaw is poised to be the definitive book on ending organizational paralysis and unlocking true potential.

Decolonizing Critical Management Studies

It's Not too Late to Build Toward a Better Future!Rick Caruso has earned a reputation for being a problem solver--somebody who's not afraid of facing big challenges. From his appointment to Water Commissioner and later Police Commissioner in Los Angeles to his bold real estate ventures, Caruso made the decisions he felt were right, even in the face of staunch adversity. In Its Not Too Late, Caruso shares the lessons he learned from his experiences while offering us all a path forward to a better future. At a time when more importance is placed on choosing sides than actually getting things done (let alone done right), Caruso offers refreshing perspective and will teach you how to let go of false divisions, and instead to embrace the search for actual answers and solutions.Togetherness, brotherhood, sisterhood, faith in each other, respect for each other, the ideals preached in almost every faith on Earth are the way forward, no matter how difficult the climb in front of us may seem. And ultimately, the only way we will get back on that path is for each of us to step up, with integrity, in whatever small way we can: for our kids, for our communities, for our country, and for each other.
