  • Engaged: Unleashing Your Organization's Potential
    “The current economic crisis has underlined how traditional means of manag- ing people are no longer effective. Too many businesses underperform because they can no longer count on the commitment of their workforce. Only by treating employees as key stakeholders and engaging them will organizations be successful. This timely book provides a practical roadmap for companies to create an engaged workforce and is essential reading for all business leaders.” Professor Klaus Schwab, Founder and Executive Chairman, World Economic Forum “This is an important contribution to leaders and managers across all types of organizations. I believe readers of this book will be more confident and better equipped to address the issues their organizations are facing.” David MacLeod, Chairman of the UK Government-sponsored Employee Engagement Task Force and co-author of the influential report to the UK Government Engaging for Success “This book highlights in a very understandable and comprehensive way, one of the most important HR concepts of our age, ‘engagement’. During difficult times, we need more than ever to engage our workforce, to get them involved and committed. This book shows how to do it, and is a ‘must read’ for all line managers and HR professionals.” Cary L. Cooper, CBE, Distinguished Professor of Organizational Psychology and Health at Lancaster University Management School, UK “A must read, timely and practical primer on how to engage any workforce – warts and all.” Will Hutton, author of Them and Us: Changing Britain – Why We Need a Fair Society, Principal at Hertford College, Oxford, UK, weekly columnist at The Guardian and The Observer Newspapers “An engaging book about engagement!

Accurate, accessible and timely information on the environmental and social impact of using different materials is increasingly important for designers, contractors and procurers to satisfy green building rating systems. These systems award credits based on the environmental impact of materials and for materials responsibly sourced, aiming to encourage the use of materials with lower environmental impacts over their lifecycle, and to recognize and encourage the specification of responsibly sourced structural materials. The CARES Sustainability Scheme provides a means by which approved firms in the reinforcing steel supply chain are able to declare product and organisational level sustainability performance, and achieve credits in the green building rating systems such as BREEAM and LEED. BREEAM is the UK’s most prominent green building rating system. The CARES Sustainability Scheme has been assessed, by BRE Global, against the requirements for responsible sourcing credits within BREEAM New Construction 2011 and has achieved entry into Tier 4 of Table 10- 2 in the Mat 03 issue [Responsible sourcing of materials]. The key features and benefits of the CARES Sustainability Scheme are summarised as follows, with further details and endorsements of the Scheme available on the CARES website, www.ukcares.com.

  • 2021 Book News Welcome to Our 2021 Book News
    2021 Book News Welcome to our 2021 Book News. As we come towards the end of a very strange year we hope that you’ve managed to get this far relatively unscathed. It’s been a very challenging time for us all and we’re just relieved that, so far, we’re mostly all in one piece. While we were closed over lockdown, Mark took on the challenge of digitalising some of Venture’s back catalogue producing over 20 downloadable books of some of our most popular titles. Thanks to the kind donations of our customers we managed to raise over £3000 for The Christie which was then matched pound for pound by a very good friend taking the total to almost £7000. There is still time to donate and download these books, just click on the downloads page on our website for the full list. We’re still operating with reduced numbers in the building at any one time. We’ve re-organised our schedules for packers and office staff to enable us to get orders out as fast as we can, but we’re also relying on carriers and suppliers. Many of the publishers whose titles we stock are small societies or one-man operations so please be aware of the longer lead times when placing orders for Christmas presents. The last posting dates for Christmas are listed on page 63 along with all the updates in light of the current Covid situation and also the impending Brexit deadline. In particular, please note the change to our order and payment processing which was introduced on 1st July 2020.
