Produktionsstyring og kvalitetsledelse

En hjælp til projektledere til at kunne navigere i komplekse sammenhænge, hvor standardiserede processer oftest langt fra er løsningen. Forfatterne bidrager med teori, tanke- og handleværktøjer som gør projektledere i stand til: - At forholde sig reflekteret til de værktøjer, som projektledere har adgang til- At klæde projektledere på til at kunne facilitere de nødvendige processer i og omkring projektet. Det er ikke de enkelte værktøjer og tilgange som er afgørende for om en projektleder lykkes. Det er i højere grad den måde man som projektlederen og projektorganisation ser på disse værktøjer og bringer dem i spil, der er afgørende. Formålet med denne bog er at skærpe projektlederens opmærksomhed på og refleksion over de værktøjer, der nu engang er til rådighed, samt at skabe refleksion over, hvordan man kan tænke og arbejde for at skabe de bedst mulige rammer for projektledelse.

Skiftende regeringer sørger for, at den offentlige sektor til stadighed bliver reformeret og forandret. Derfor er forandringsledelse et grundvilkår for de offentlige ledere, der skal omsætte de politiske ideer til ny praksis i organisationerne. Også når der lokalt er skepsis og modstand mod, at opgaver skal løses på nye måder og i nye rammer.Overalt i den offentlige sektor er aktive ledere i gang med at forholde sig til reformer og forandringer. De er konstant på udkigefter nye måder at få ressourcer og resultater til at mødes på for at skabe værdi for borgerne.Forfatternes egen forskning ledsages sammen med ny international forskning i komplekse forandringer af illustrative eksempler fra offentlige organisationer, der har gennemgået reformer og forandringer og har opnået gode resultater.

Når vi skal føre nye ideer ud i livet, bliver vi ofte ramt af usikkerhed og frygt for fiasko. Men hvis du vænner dig til altid at teste dine ideer, minimerer du risikoen for, at det, du troede skulle blive genialt, falder til jorden. Test dine ideer viser, hvordan du gør dine ideer skudsikre. Du lærer at anvende eksperimenter og at sætte dine undersøgelser i system, så det med at teste altid bare er noget, man gør i din virksomhed.Bogens 44 enkle eksperimenter er værdifulde, fordi de reducerer risikoen og usikkerheden ved en idé og giver dig et bevis for, om dine hypoteser skal støttes eller afvises.

Eliyahu M. Goldratt was an educator, author, physicist, philosopher and business leader, but fi rst and foremost, he was a thinker who provoked others to think. Oft en characterized as unconventional, stimulating, and "a slayer of sacred cows," he urged his audience to examine and reassess their business practices with a fresh, new vision. Dr. Goldratt is best known as the father of the Theory of Constraints (TOC), a process of ongoing improvement that identifies and leverages a system's constraints in order to achieve the system's goals. He introduced TOC's underlying concepts in his business novel, The Goal: A Process of Ongoing Improvement, which has been recognized as one of the best-selling business books of all time. First published in 1984, Th e Goal has been updated three times and sold more than 10 million copies worldwide. It has been translated into 40 languages.

Dr. Elouise Epstein's new book, How to hack your supply chain: Breaking today, building tomorrow, provides insights to practitioners for navigating the ongoing volatility of the disruptive world we live in.This book's guidance couldn't arrive at a better time. Supply chain leaders are encountering technological changes, increased customer expectations, and growing security risks. Seemingly overnight, supply chain management has gone from the understudy to the leading actor.The trouble, though, is that most global enterprise supply chains were designed and built decades ago. They remain lumbering monoliths designed to maximize cost savings at the expense of efficiency, ESG, and security. More importantly, most supply chains are not digital; instead, they run on technology from the 1990s, spreadsheets, and human grit. It's time for enterprises to fundamentally redesign their supply chains and then rebuild them around digital excellence and AI fluency.In How to hack your supply chain, Dr. Epstein explains how to create intelligence from the glut of data and upskill practitioners to function in a disrupted world. She also provides advice for improving cyber and physical security and operating supply chains more effectively in an ever-evolving global environment. Written with humor and plenty of real-world examples, How to hack your supply chain is a must-read for operations practitioners, supply chain enthusiasts, and anyone else who yearns to understand and design supply chains for the future.

Circular economy can serve as a key building block for the sustainability targets of manufacturing companies. Although the term itself has long been established, we see that proper implementation of a circular economy model across entire manufacturing value chains is still lacking and remains a challenge.
