...Lifecycle Project Management Approach Successful projects and campaigns result from quality stakeholder engagement, research, insight, careful planning, implementation, and constant adjustments based on feedback. We approach all projects from a project lifecycle perspective, with most projects following a series of interdependent stages. Typically, these stages include understanding, planning, designing, implementing, and concluding. There is a time and place for each product and service. Within each stage, projects may require any combination of management, research, creativity, training, and technical services. When we approach each project, we assess which project lifecycle stages will be required, and then we combine the best combination of services, products, and people for that stage. Recognizing there are no “one size fits all” solutions, we tailor each project to suit our clients’ individual needs and unique operating environments. Since all our products and services are aligned with the lifecycle stages, we offer the right support, at the right time, focused on the right goals. Project lifecycle stages 1. Understanding Solid projects and campaigns begin with quality research and insight. This can include audience, product, competitor, and stakeholder research. The insights gleaned at this stage are used for the strategic planning, design, and implementation stages. Moreover, any baseline data may be used for pre/post comparisons within the final evaluation. ...

...The Unified Process, a Project Management Approach The Unified Process, a Project Management Approach The Agile Unified Process is an easily understandable form of the Rational Unified Process (RUP).It defines a simple way of improving business applications (Methodsandtools.com, 2014). Organization’s changes to software development can be accepted at late stages of progression. The aim of any firm is to grow in future a trend observable in most businesses. It is right for the management to take into consideration the key indicators of a progressive service delivery. These will help in improving their structures through employing the best operational procedures. Improvements can be done on human skills, techniques used, and automations. The agile software delivery aims at developing mechanisms that will ensure a proper economy of the resources. It is achieved by targeting a lower value of risk and getting optimal utilization of the assets. This attributes to a higher chance of a successful business due to reduced negative impacts on the procedures. The management of modules such as projects and programs, should be performed in accordance with the business goal and the available resources. Each module should be designed to efficiently utilize the program budgets, timelines, resources, and uncertainties. The firm has then the capability to figure out how each portfolio will achieve the set goals. Then allocations of finances and human labor to different modules can be governed...

Then you read ahead in your manual and you draw a blank. What to talk about? The following tips will help you get through the Communication and Leadership Manual while maintaining your excitement about speaking. Selecting the right topics is the secret. * Speak about you. Tell the audience about things that you've experienced. * Speak about things you know. You many not realize it, but you have knowledge that the rest of your club members would like to have. Think about areas of interest and expertise and share them with others. * Speak about things you would like to know. If something interests you or is a lifelong dream, your enthusiasm for that topic will be contagious. Research the subject and present it to the audience. Speech 2 — “Be In Earnest” This speech challenges you to convince the audience of your sincerity or conviction on a topic. I did my second speech on “Unfinished Business” — someone dear to me had just died and I realized how much we leave unsaid to those people closest to us. It was an emotional speech for me, and it helped the club members get to know me better. Other great topics for this speech are political issues, social causes, relationships and anything else you feel strongly about. Speech 3 — “Organize Your Speech” I love this speech because it can be...

...would you Use the Systems Approach, and what Makes it so Critical to the Success of Project Management [Name] System approach is a strategic management concept which views the structure of a company as that of an interconnected and purposive system consisting of various business sections. It is a key approach to effective organizational management and structuring that groups elements on the basis that they can successfully be linked up together to give room for better management. System approach can be used in project management to evaluate both external and internal elements which affect the success of a business. According to Banathy, system approach is multi-directional (1964). This is because it allows an interactive approach to project elements. This management approach defines a project’s goals, objectives and the set procedures that are followed in successfully completing it. System approach is important to the success of any viable project. By interconnecting several elements of a project, this system provides a simplified base for management that reduces complexity. It also helps promote specialization and efficient coordination between different project departments. This results in efficient and specialized handling of project’s tasks and procedures, all which are critical to the success of project management. Moreover, through system approach, management strategies can be analyzed and evaluated for improvement. Simulations of new project management models can also...

...tone and making sure to use a reader-centered perspective that utilizes a "you" approach and positive wording. In addition to a reader-centered perspective, however, you also should consider the difference between what is called a direct and an indirect approach when organizing letters, memos, and e-mail messages, especially ones that convey bad news. DIRECT APPROACH The direct approach anticipates no resistance to its message--for instance, "you've been hired," "your order is being shipped today," or even "the project will be done in one week." In this case, organizing your message is simple. Searle’s mentions that memos and letters should have some kind of brief introduction, sometimes as its own paragraph. If you're using the direct approach, this introduction is simply a straightforward statement of the main point of the message. For instance, if you are writing a letter to confirm an order, simply begin by stating, "We have received your order for part #23-B-4439 and are shipping it today." Then the rest of the letter can provide details like shipping time, cost, etc. Whenever possible, use the direct approach. Most readers are in a hurry and want the main point up front. And if there's no reason for them to respond negatively, there's no reason to delay that main point.Keep in mind that the direct approach applies equally to letters, memos, and e-mail messages. INDIRECT APPROACH Sometimes, your letter, memo, or e-mail message contains "bad news" of some type--a...

...EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The summer internship of 2 months at Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages Pvt. Ltd. (HCCBPL), Mancheswar (Odisha) titled "Automation of report generation to identify potential BBD risk at Khurda plant and Analysis of Fill rate, Stock maintenance, Primary movement of iDAS distributors" focused on surfacing out the losses that HCCBPL is bearing and to find the measures for its eradication. The project consisted of 3 objectives: The 1st objective was to surface out the non moving / slow moving stocks that are the potential Best Before Due Date stocks (BBD's) and to automate the process on weekly basis - For that I analyzed the stock movement of a week and created a macro which can be run on weekly basis and will showcase the potential BBD's. The macro is already implemented in Khurda plant and there is no stuck out probability of BBD stocks in Khurda now. The 2nd objective was to create an MIS to provide an accountability of bottlenecks on indirect approach of distribution at distributor point. For that I understood the Improvised Distribution Automated System (iDAS) reports well, found out the reports which are beneficial for RTM Managers to see regularly so that the problems can be accountable. The analysis is done by the data gathered from the iDAS Fill rate report and created an MIS to identify the major stock out Stock Keeping Units (SKU's) and area which has got a greater market issue i.e., area and outlets where the stocks are...

Nature has always inspired human achievements and has led to effective materials, structures, tools, mechanisms, processes, algorithms, methods, systems, and many other benefits (Bar-Cohen Y (ed) 2005 Biomimetics—Biologically Inspired Technologies (Boca Raton, FL: CRC Press) pp 1–552). This field, which is known as biomimetics, offers enormous potential for inspiring new capabilities for exciting future technologies. There are numerous examples of biomimetic successes that involve making simple copies, such as the use of fins for swimming. Others examples involved greater mimicking complexity including the mastery of flying that became possible only after the principles of aerodynamics were better understood. Some commercial implementations of biomimetics, including robotic toys and movie subjects, are increasingly appearing and behaving like living creatures. More substantial benefits of biomimetics include the development of prosthetics...

Provide different suggestions for each of the four approaches to leadership. Directive approach | Supportive approach | By using a directive approach, you are providing guidance and training. This can be anything from work scheduling to maintaining clear work performance standards. Linking incentives directly to performance is also an approach worth trying to boost employee morale. Developing clear work rules and procedures can be essential for making any work environment successful. | Being friendly and approachable can be a hard thing to do on an everyday basis. There can be problems that affect a person attitude on a particular day. Showing concern for well being and needs of employees will show that you empathize with their situation and you will strive to better whatever situation that is troubling them.

...I believe all persuasive approaches will be different depending on who I will be approaching in the audience. I order to have an effective approach I must know who I am approaching and how I will approach them. Considering that a message can be directed to a boss, a peer, a challenging person, or an open-minded person I must be able to construct or tailor my approach according to each person in order to get to the see my point of view and gain their support. Each person will develop their opinions differently not only because each person has their own mind but because each plays a different role. For example, if I am approaching my boss in discussion I must consider the fact that he or she has worked extremely hard to obtain a position where they can lead others and is person who is respected because of their position who goals are in line with that of company’s vision. Therefore, my approach would be to follow the same order of directing my approach to line up with the company’s goals. If I were speaking with a peer, this approach would be probably be the easiest considering that we have established grounds of comfort and our views and goals would be easier. When approaching a peer there is no or very little preparation involved. Usually, peers see things eye to eye and very rarely does someone have to work hard in order to make a good impression or get them to see my point of view. In the case of the challenging person, this would be the complete opposite of a peer...

The meeting with Dixon is crucial for Larry to establish clear and concise goals for himself and his future team. Through this meeting, Larry must also determine Dixon's position on the manner and assess to what extent she will be involved with the team. From the information provided in the case, it is clear that Dixon is essentially "dumping" this task on Larry and that she will not even be present for the first two weeks of the task force.

My proposal about postponing the meetings would solve problems that will come your way when you are not focused enough. Since his morning started pretty stressful because of the traffic situation, that stressful feeling will most likely follow you during the day. When you feel stressful you are most likely to forget more things for example things you had to do or say during a meeting. Postponing his meetings would give him time to get everything together and feel comfortable going into the meetings. 3) How can you defend your solution from budgetary concerns? In what way is your approach both a solution to the problems of the expatriates at Tex-Mark and a good economic investment? The reason why my solution to postpone the meetings is a good solution because it can keep you away from any budgetary mistakes. I know that those meetings are very important because money is involved. The way I look at the solution for the expatriates is because I think that more time the expatriates get to prepare to go abroad the better they are going to do their work there....

...development approach is from the theory of Sen which says that development comes about only when capabilities expand. The idea generated from the theory is that the core reason for development is to ensure that human lives are improved. This can only be achieved if there is expansion in what they can be or do. It could include things such as the being well nourished and healthy, participating in the activities of the community and being knowledgeable. Hence, development can only occur once the obstacles that were present preventing an individual from doing something are removed. The obstacles might be in the form of ill health, illiteracy, lack of resources or lack of freedom- both political and civil. When these obstacles are removed one is said to be capable; hence the origin of the concept of capability Sen, 160). Purpose Statement The purpose of this paper is to analyze the concept of capabilities approach that was developed by Amartya Sen, a Nobel Prize winner, and M. Nussban. Amartya has enabled the measurement of human development by the United Development Program (UNDP). He helped invent the capabilities approach, which is the foundation of indices used by UNDP in their measurements. Through these indices the achievement in education and health can be measured in addition to income (Nussbaum, 67). Objectives The main aim of this paper is to establish whether the Human Development Reports (HDRs) have their base relying on the concept of capabilities approach and establish...
