Huber J: The Unheroic Art of Managing
Engineers

The Unheroic Art of Managing Engineers

How to Lead Brilliant Minds Without Losing Yours


<p>
Investigating the innovation activities of multinational corporations, this book uncovers and examines why the geography of innovation by multinationals is overwhelmingly local, in spite of their global operations in manufacturing and sales through case studies of produce development by three global players: Toyota, Sony, and Canon.  The microdynamic approach of the book allows an in-depth investigation of the engineering and technical aspects of innovation making. The book unfolds the complex and constant process of trial and error in innovation and reveals three fundamental natures of innovation making: complexity, interdisciplinarity, and prototyping and testing. In order to manage these three natures of innovation, firms have to plan, ironically, for unplanned situations and to collocate knowledge, people, and resources.</p>


Why the Engineering Aspects of Innovation Making Require Co-location

Global Companies, Local Innovations

Studies on Industrial Productivity: Selected Works


<p>
</p><p>Originally published in 1999, this volume integrates several streams of research on the antecedents of innovation to test a model of individual innovative behavior in a high technology product development organization. The sample for this research was a group of Engineers, Designers and Lab Technicians employed in an engineering department responsible for the development of high technology products. Structural equation modeling techniques and multiple linear regression were used to evaluate the research. </p><p></p>


A Study of Innovative Behavior in High Technology Product Development Organizations

</p><p><b>A GUIDE TO EFFECTIVE PROJECT MANAGEMENT IN TECHNOLOGY-BASED FIRMS</b></p> <p>Used effectively, project management can increase a firm's market share, product quality, and customer satisfaction. Though technology-based companies place themselves at a competitive disadvantage if they neglect this strategic tool, many overlook project management's benefits because they see themselves as continuously adapting organizations. In reality, this role makes project management even more vital.</p> <p><i>Managing Technology-Based Projects</i> imparts the latest approaches and tools essential to lead a successful technology-based project. It outlines the practical integration of project management with four key areas: strategic alignment of projects within the enterprise, the project management process and its organizational support system, invaluable tools and techniques, and the individual and group leadership within a project's organization. Complete with examples of industrial applications, the book includes: </p> <ul> <li>Methods for defining key performance indicators and assessing project management process effectiveness</li> <li>Suggestions for fine-tuning and continuous improvement</li> <li>Practical case scenarios, discussion topics, end-of-chapter reviews, and exercises</li> <li>Attention to project management as it applies to a globalized business</li> </ul> <p>No one in a managerial role should be without Thamhain's expert advice. This guidebook is your road map to successfully incorporating enterprise project management into technology-based work.</p><p></p>


Written by well-known author and PMP Hans Thamhain, this professional reference and textbook provides management practitioners and students of project management with the latest concepts and tools for leading technology-oriented projects.

Decision Making in Systems Engineering and Management

Synthesis Collection of Technology (R0)

&lt;p&gt;This book focuses on analytical and quantitative methods that align improvement opportunities with organizational goals and metrics. The book describes a framework that starts with developing a holistic view of an organization and then defining the organization’s goals, objectives, decision criteria, and metrics to result in meaningful measures for process, project, and product investment decisions. The author describes how to utilize decision-making tools, analytical methods, and optimization techniques to enhance the objectivity and robustness of the readers’ decisions. This framework supports the use of these tools and enables readers to make decisions that drive bottom-line performance. Aspects of this approach have been used in corporate, military, and government agencies to drive the efficient use of available resources.  &lt;/p&gt;
