Book Description
Analizar y resolver problemas es una tarea cotidiana para todos nosotros. Pero es una tarea que cobra especial relevancia en el ámbito profesional. En efecto, de un ejecutivo se espera que sepa resolver problemas de forma eficiente y funcional. Los buenos ejecutivos están conscientes de esto, y cumplen bien con su propósito en situaciones normales. Pero ¿qué sucede cuando los problemas son tan complejos que requieren de soluciones creativas, originales? es entonces cuando la mente se pone a prueba. La capacidad de "pensar fuera de la caja" y ofrecer soluciones innovadoras cobra especial relevancia. Necesitamos poner a trabajar nuestra inventiva."Todos podemos ser creativos", es una máxima con la que abre esta interesante obra. Pero necesitamos algunas técnicas que puedan disparar esa creatividad y darle cauce. Esas técnicas -sencillas y bien estructuradas- se encuentran en este libro. Se trata de técnicas sencillas, que pueden ser aplicadas de inmediato, y que asegurarán el obtener lo mejor de la inventiva propia y del equipo de trabajo. Aderezada con casos reales de empresas y personas que dieron con grandes ideas, esta obra es atractiva, aplicable y de fácil lectura. Indispensable para project managers, directivos, ejecutivos, y en fin, profesionistas de cualquier área que necesiten originar ideas para mejorar su trabajo, posicionarse sólidamente y coadyuvar al éxito propio, de su área y de su organización. Las ideas y recursos que se muestran en este libro, son por cierto también de utilidad para aplicarlos en la vida personal, con la familia y la comunidad. Ahora más que nunca, necesitamos pensar creativamente. Esta obra te será de gran utilidad para lograrlo.

Design Thinking for the Greater Good
Author: Jeanne Liedtka
Publisher: Columbia University Press
ISBN: 0231545851
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 530
Book Description
Facing especially wicked problems, social sector organizations are searching for powerful new methods to understand and address them. Design Thinking for the Greater Good goes in depth on both the how of using new tools and the why. As a way to reframe problems, ideate solutions, and iterate toward better answers, design thinking is already well established in the commercial world. Through ten stories of struggles and successes in fields such as health care, education, agriculture, transportation, social services, and security, the authors show how collaborative creativity can shake up even the most entrenched bureaucracies—and provide a practical roadmap for readers to implement these tools. The design thinkers Jeanne Liedtka, Randy Salzman, and Daisy Azer explore how major agencies like the Department of Health and Human Services and the Transportation and Security Administration in the United States, as well as organizations in Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom, have instituted principles of design thinking. In each case, these groups have used the tools of design thinking to reduce risk, manage change, use resources more effectively, bridge the communication gap between parties, and manage the competing demands of diverse stakeholders. Along the way, they have improved the quality of their products and enhanced the experiences of those they serve. These strategies are accessible to analytical and creative types alike, and their benefits extend throughout an organization. This book will help today's leaders and thinkers implement these practices in their own pursuit of creative solutions that are both innovative and achievable.

The Critical Path to Corporate Renewal
Author: Michael Beer
Publisher: Harvard Business Press
ISBN: 9780875842394
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
The Critical Path to Corporate Renewal is a practical and effective agenda for revitalizing the corporation. Through an in depth analysis of six companies that have undergone fundamental changes, the authors describe what works and what doesn't in corporate renewal. Describes the many common errors companies make in getting started. The human sources of competitive advantage--coordination, commitment, and competence--cannot be enhanced through programs. Successful corporate renewal occurs only when plants, divisions, and departments involve employees. That must be done through a carefully designed series of steps--the critical path--led by unit general managers. Companies that have followed this strategy have flatter and less hierarchical organizations, employees who take initiative to reduce costs and improve quality, and enhanced teamwork at all levels.

The Book of Daniel
Author: E.L. Doctorow
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 0307762955
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
The central figure of this novel is a young man whose parents were executed for conspiring to steal atomic secrets for Russia. His name is Daniel Isaacson, and as the story opens, his parents have been dead for many years. He has had a long time to adjust to their deaths. He has not adjusted. Out of the shambles of his childhood, he has constructed a new life—marriage to an adoring girl who gives him a son of his own, and a career in scholarship. It is a life that enrages him. In the silence of the library at Columbia University, where he is supposedly writing a Ph.D. dissertation, Daniel composes something quite different. It is a confession of his most intimate relationships—with his wife, his foster parents, and his kid sister Susan, whose own radicalism so reproaches him. It is a book of memories: riding a bus with his parents to the ill-fated Paul Robeson concert in Peekskill; watching the FBI take his father away; appearing with Susan at rallies protesting their parents’ innocence; visiting his mother and father in the Death House. It is a book of investigation: transcribing Daniel’s interviews with people who knew his parents, or who knew about them; and logging his strange researches and discoveries in the library stacks. It is a book of judgments of everyone involved in the case—lawyers, police, informers, friends, and the Isaacson family itself. It is a book rich in characters, from elderly grand- mothers of immigrant culture, to covert radicals of the McCarthy era, to hippie marchers on the Pen-tagon. It is a book that spans the quarter-century of American life since World War II. It is a book about the nature of Left politics in this country—its sacrificial rites, its peculiar cruelties, its humility, its bitterness. It is a book about some of the beautiful and terrible feelings of childhood. It is about the nature of guilt and innocence, and about the relations of people to nations. It is The Book of Daniel.
