Book Description
Muchas compañías están transformándose para poder adaptarse a las exigencias de un entorno cada vez más demandante y cambiante. Algunas de las iniciativas de cambio que se impulsan son más intensivas en tecnología, otras en procesos y otras en herramientas, pero todas tienen un denominador común: su impacto en las personas que forman la organización. Este libro es una guía para todos aquellos directivos, gestores y profesionales que deben impulsar, gestionar o implantar un proyecto de cambio y para quienes deseen entender mejor la diferencia entre gestionar proyectos y gestionar el cambio. A través de casos reales y desde varios enfoques y disciplinas como el liderazgo, el diseño de los entornos de trabajo, la psicología, la sociología y la comunicación, la autora desgrana los aspectos más relevantes de la relación que existe entre las personas y los procesos de cambio dentro del contexto empresarial. La Cuarta Revolución Industrial, término comúnmente utilizado en relación a los retos que la tecnología aplicada a varios campos plantea en el siglo XXI, se diferencia de otras revoluciones por dos características principales: la velocidad a la que se suceden los cambios y la amplitud de ámbitos a los que afecta. Por ello, saber cómo gestionar los procesos de transformación resulta hoy, más que nunca, crítico. Sin obviar que la transformación digital es uno de los mayores desafíos que muchas empresas deben afrontar, este libro pone el foco en la importancia de ver, escuchar y entender al empleado como persona y no sólo como profesional durante cualquier proceso de cambio, ahondando tanto en aspectos racionales como emocionales para brindar al lector algunas de las claves más importantes para una correcta gestión del cambio.

The Digital Transformation Playbook
Author: David L. Rogers
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 0231541651
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
Rethink your business for the digital age. Every business begun before the Internet now faces the same challenge: How to transform to compete in a digital economy? Globally recognized digital expert David L. Rogers argues that digital transformation is not about updating your technology but about upgrading your strategic thinking. Based on Rogers's decade of research and teaching at Columbia Business School, and his consulting for businesses around the world, The Digital Transformation Playbook shows how pre-digital-era companies can reinvigorate their game plans and capture the new opportunities of the digital world. Rogers shows why traditional businesses need to rethink their underlying assumptions in five domains of strategy—customers, competition, data, innovation, and value. He reveals how to harness customer networks, platforms, big data, rapid experimentation, and disruptive business models—and how to integrate these into your existing business and organization. Rogers illustrates every strategy in this playbook with real-world case studies, from Google to GE, from Airbnb to the New York Times. With practical frameworks and nine step-by-step planning tools, he distills the lessons of today's greatest digital innovators and makes them usable for businesses at any stage. Many books offer advice for digital start-ups, but The Digital Transformation Playbook is the first complete treatment of how legacy businesses can transform to thrive in the digital age. It is an indispensable guide for executives looking to take their firms to the next stage of profitable growth.

Beyond Great
Author: Arindam Bhattacharya
Publisher: PublicAffairs
ISBN: 1541757157
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 275
Book Description
Great is no longer good enough. Beyond Great delivers a powerful new playbook of 9 core strategies to thrive in a post-COVID world where all the rules of the game are being re-written. Beyond Great answers to two fundamental questions which face business leaders today in a world shaped by daunting and disruptive technological, economic, and social change. First, what is outstanding performance in this new volatile era? Second, how do we build competitive advantage in a world with new and often uncertain rules? Supported by years of research and hands-on consulting practice, this book presents a comprehensive framework for building a high performing, resilient, adaptive, and socially responsible global company. The book begins by taking an incisive look at these disruptive forces transforming globalization, including economic nationalism; the boom in data flows and digital commerce; the rise of China; heightened public concerns about capitalism and the environment; and the emergence of borderless communities of digitally connected consumers. Distilled from the study of hundreds of companies and interviews with dozens of business leaders, the authors have distilled nine core strategies – the new winning playbook of the 21st century. Beyond Great argues that business leaders today must lead with a new kind of openness, flexibility and light-footedness, constantly layering in new strategies and operational norms atop existing ones to allow for "always-on" transformation. Leaders must master a whole new set of rules about what it takes to be "global," becoming shapeshifters adept at handling contradiction, multiplicity, and nuance. This book will show them how.

Book Description
"I am happy to recommend this work. I believe in the principles presented in it and identify with its context. Due to the lack of knowledge on the subject in the market, it is a topic that must be made known. The book should be in the library of all project and change managers."— Paul Dinsmore, PMI Fellow "Every manager should integrate HCMBOK® practices into their project management methodology in order to fully develop their work. This book addresses a simple and practical way that the critical component in organizational change management can be applied to projects of all kinds: the human factor."— Bruno Machado, Director, Project Management Office, Grupo Anima Educação "We live in a time of change, speed, and an avalanche of information. It is still very difficult for most companies to change their organizational culture efficiently. This book makes us reflect upon the crucial element in any change, and which most managers do not place in the foreground—the people." — Joyce Meyer, CEO, iDigo "In today's constantly changing world, the Project Manager must have sensitivity to how people react to change. Knowing a method that provides a structured way to take care of the human aspect is a key factor in the success of any project! HCMBOK® offers a simple and practical approach to managing change, which can be easily incorporated into the project management routine, providing amazing results."— Pedro Augusto Cardoso da Silva, Engineering Director, METRÔRIO This reference starts by presenting the concept of change management, its players, strategies, and applicable models. In the second part, the book covers the set of good practices, methodology, and tools known as the HCMBOK®— Human Change Management Body of Knowledge. The third part introduces the concept of the Change Management Office (CMO) and its relation to the strategic planning of an organization. The book concludes with the competencies essential for a change manager, an approach to agile methodologies, and a model for managing cultural change.

Book Description
Diseño, transformación y cambio en las organizaciones analiza los pilares esenciales que permiten alcanzar el máximo rendimiento en el competitivo panorama empresarial actual: el diseño organizacional moderno, la gestión del cambio proactiva y la atención al bienestar. Luis F. Toro estructura estos pilares en dos partes, centrándose en la primera en el diseño y la transformación, para analizar después la gestión del cambio: -El diseño organizacional es clave para impulsar el rendimiento y alcanzar objetivos estratégicos en el competitivo mundo empresarial.

La gestión del cambio se presenta como una necesidad ineludible, donde los directivos son agentes de transformación. Cierra la primera parte preocupándose de la conducta del empleado, y la segunda de la gestión del estrés laboral, que a menudo se ha visto como un mal necesario, pero tiene repercusiones negativas en la operatividad empresarial. Es esencial crear un ambiente laboral saludable, ajustando la carga de trabajo, diseñando roles significativos y fomentando la participación en la toma de decisiones. Índice: PARTE I.

Book Description
The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

The Resilient Enterprise
Author: Yossi Sheffi
Publisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262250624
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
Stories from Nokia, Dell, UPS, Toyota, and other companies show how firms can reduce their vulnerability to high-impact distributions, from earthquakes to strikes, from SARS to terrorism, and use them for competitive advantage. What happens when fire strikes the manufacturing plant of the sole supplier for the brake pressure valve used in every Toyota? When a hurricane shuts down production at a Unilever plant? When Dell and Apple chip manufacturers in Taiwan take weeks to recover from an earthquake? When the U.S. Pacific ports are shut down during the Christmas rush? When terrorists strike? In The Resilient Enterprise, Yossi Sheffi shows that companies' fortunes in the face of such business shocks depend more on choices made before the disruption than they do on actions taken in the midst of it—and that resilience benefits firms every day, disaster or no disaster. He shows how companies can build in flexibility throughout their supply chains, based on proven design principles and the right culture—balancing security, redundancy, and short-term profits. And he shows how investments in resilience and flexibility not only reduce risk but create a competitive advantage in the increasingly volatile marketplace.Sheffi describes the way companies can increase security—reducing the likelihood of a disruption—with layered defenses, the tracking and analysis of “near-misses,” fast detection, and close collaboration with government agencies, trading partners, and even competitors. But the focus of the book is on resilience—the ability to bounce back from disruptions and disasters—by building in redundancy and flexibility. For example, standardization, modular design, and collaborative relationships with suppliers (and other stakeholders) can help create a robust supply chain. And a corporate culture of flexibility—with distributed decision making and communications at all levels—can create a resilient enterprise.Sheffi provides tools for companies to reduce the vulnerability of the supply chain they live in. And along the way he tells the stories of dozens of enterprises, large and small, including Toyota, Nokia, General Motors, Zara, Land Rover, Chiquita, Aisin Seiki, Southwest Airlines, UPS, Johnson and Johnson, Intel, Amazon.com, the U.S. Navy, and others, from across the globe. Their successes, failures, preparations, and methods provide a rich set of lessons in preparing for and managing disruptions. Additional material available at www.TheResilientEnterprise.com.
