    Book : Achieving Successful Business Outcomes Driving High..

    -Titulo Original : Achieving Successful Business Outcomes: Driving High Performance & Effective Transformations In A Continuously Evolving Business Environment-Fabricante : Productivity Press-Descripcion Original: Achieving Successful Business Outcomes: Driving High Performance & Effective Transformations in a Continuously Evolving Business Environment Navigating in space is exponentially more difficult than navigating on the road - because there are too many directions to investigate, too many unknowns to be prepared for and infinite pathways to chart in the galactic system. So it is with business. Business environments are extremely demanding and change continuously, precipitated by innumerable actors and conditions. Business success cannot be predicated on the pedigree of a leader or a prescribed theory alone, as start-ups have amply proven. Large companies have tried to copy nimble-footed start-ups while start-ups, after achieving a certain size, have been forced to adapt to unchartered territory. Disruptions seems to be the order of the day. This book is about achieving successful business outcomes. An aircraft has a complex dashboard of dials, where only a critical few need to be monitored continuously, and other subsets warrant attention only during specific phases of the flight. A well-modeled business can be managed successfully using a similar strategy. But the larger question is how to model a business, with closely correlated variables, to represent the reality of the environment and to allow for devising, formulating and adjusting business strategy and actions in real-time. The author uses a simple but well-researched STA-Triangle (space, time and action) model to achieve this purpose. The core of the STA model is to help navigate effectively in a rapidly changing business environment. Unlike traditional business studies that use a single lens to define business rules or organizational practices, it uses the combination of space, time and action as the driver of outcomes - something fundamental and core to human thinking across the ages. This book contains both theoretical and practical applications - the former helps propel further research and analysis and the latter helps practicing leaders confidently drive their firms forward in any environmental conditions. It will also help causal readers understand how the future is evolving and how different organizations are responding to this change. The author includes more than a hundred supporting examples and tools that help create highly incisive and unique views for calibrating strategy and execution. Visit the authors website at alokksinha Review Alok K Sinha is a name to remember, and ‘Achieving Successful Business Outcomes’ is a tour-de-force. The book is Sinhas impressive intellectual take on essential corporate strategies for the 21st century. Distilled from decades of Sinhas pragmatic business experience, reinventing enterprise after enterprise, this book is not for the faint-hearted. Its the missing manual for CXOs who want to understand the reasons their growth strategies are faltering and how to reinvigorate them. Steven Sonsino, author of ‘Leadership Unplugged’ and ‘The Seven Failings of Really Useless Leaders’ Alok has hit the nail on the head! The future demands an entirely new approach to strategic thinking - and MUST be multi-dimensional, multi-faceted and exponential! This does not mean it is devoid of structure…quite the opposite in fact he offers us a comprehensive, relevant and structured way to synthesise the complex forces shaping our future world. It is crucial for leaders to comprehend the interdependencies between a wide range of forces that impact on our future choices and options. More importantly, how these can be used to create optionality and market differentiation. This is a valuable and important contribution to our future relevance toolkit! Anton Musgrave, Futurist and Senior Partner, Future World International A timely and compelling book that demystifies what it takes to drive change in a volatile and turbulent business environment.

    Book : 5s For Operators 5 Pillars Of The Visual Workplace...

    -Titulo Original : 5s For Operators 5 Pillars Of The Visual Workplace (for Your Organization!)-Fabricante : Productivity Press-Descripcion Original: Hiroyuki Hirano’s five pillars of the visual workplace: sort, set in order, shine, standardize and sustain are the most fundamental and often overlooked aspects in continuous improvement initiatives. Together, these concepts form the framework of the 5S System, a set of principles whose simplicity often betrays its powerful impact on the workplace. So much of the 5S System seems like common sense, that it is astonishing how often such seemingly simple practices are absent in manufacturing operations. That is why Productivity Press is proud to bring you 5S for Operators: 5 Pillars of the Visual Workplace, a hands-on book that explains the principles, rationale and implementation details of the 5S System. Easy-to-read and apply, each section of the text is loaded with questions, outlines, summaries, diagrams and illustrations. Most importantly, 5S for Operators provides the foundational knowledge that is essential for implementing not just the 5S System, but overall manufacturing improvements like shorter equipment changeovers, just-in-time inventory, total quality management and total productive maintenance. Since its publication in 1996, 5S for Operators has been and continues to be hugely popular, consistently ranking among Productivitys list of top-sellers, and its popularity is not hard to understand. 5S has proven its worth in one company after another, consistently reducing waste, guaranteeing product quality, ensuring safety and increasing the bottom line. With 5S for Operators, the 5S System can have the same profound effect on your operations. To introduce the 5S system and sell its use to executives as well as workers, consider purchasing: 5S System: An Introduction DVD (Catalog no. PP5934) Adhering to the principle of efficiency that defines this revolutionary and proven system, this video succinctly explains what is involved, who should participate, and what it will take to get started. Review I recommend this book to every supervisor who wants a commonsense, inexpensive method for improving quality, productivity, and morale within their department. Jaymie Randel, Training Coordinator, Douglas and Lomason Co. 06/01/04 This book should be read and studied by all shopfloor managers, supervisors, leaders, and associates looking for a direction to success.

The authors straightforward common sense approach makes this book an easily accessible, on-the-floor resource for every team member.Watch Shingo Prize-winning author Pascal Dennis discuss Lean Production Simplified, Third Edition s://youtu.be/YD030vOb8KM Review There is a need for a book exactly like this, and Pascal has the experience, knowledge, and passion to write it. Pascal Dennis is one of many Westerners who, during the past 20 years, have gained firsthand experience with ‘Lean production’ or the Toyota Production System (TPS). At Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada, one of Toyota’s early and successful efforts to transplant TPS outside the confines of Toyota City in Japan, Pascal received personalized mentoring from his trainer from Toyota City about each of the processes, systems, and philosophies explained in this book. John Shook, Senior Advisor, Lean Enterprise Institute; President, TWI Network, Inc., Ann Arbor, Michigan, USAPraise for the Shingo Prize-Winning Second Edition:Lean Production Simplified is both enlightening and informative for all levels of ‘Lean learners.’ It is written from a very human perspective. Many prior publications focus on the ‘Lean bag of tools’ or the softer cultural aspects of Lean. Dennis contribution is a well integrated blend of both giving the reader not only a systemic understanding of Lean, but also the clear skill development required for leadership at all levels. Wherever you are on your journey to Lean, Lean Production Simplified will provide further knowledge and insight to help achieve the next level on the eternal path to perfection.

Michael A. J. Davis, Executive VP, Waterville TG, Inc.Lean Production Simplified goes beyond being a ‘primer’ for the Toyota Production System - it is ‘Lean thinking’ at its best, revealed and explained. Pascal Dennis has drawn from his own experience at Toyota to help the reader understand the meaning behind their language of success, with the whys and hows explained clearl...
