A shift in goal from making money for shareholders to delighting customers through continuous innovation. A shift in the role of managers from controlling individuals to enabling self- organizing teams. A shift in the way work is coordinated from bureaucracy to dynamic linking. A shift in values from a preoccupation with efficiency to a broader set of values that will foster continuous innovation. A shift in communications from top-down commands to horizontal communications http://www.stevedenning.com/Radical-Management/default.aspx Stoos A community and social network dedicated to bringing the latest management Network thinking to the workplace. The founding statement of the Stoos Network is: “Reflecting on leadership in organizations today, we find ourselves in a bit of a mess. We see reliance on linear, mechanistic thinking, companies focusing more on stock price than delighting customers, and knowledge workers whose voices are ignored by the bosses who direct them. All these factors are reflected in the current economic crisis, increased inequity, bankruptcies and widespread disillusionment. There has to be a better way. In January 2012, a diverse group of twenty one people including senior executives, business strategists, managers, academics, and lean/agile development practitioners from four continents, met in Stoos, Switzerland. We believe that we uncovered some of the common characteristics of that better way. For example, that organizations can become learning networks of individuals creating value and that the role of leaders should include the stewardship of the living rather than the management of the machine. Most importantly, we committed to continue our work, both in-person and online. A problem this size will require many minds and hearts. We’d love to hear your voice and your experience. Help move the conversation forward by joining our LinkedIn Group and on twitter with hashtag #stoos. Let’s start the transformation, before it’s too late.” http://www.stoosnetwork.org/ Hacking New Imperatives Management Today's forward thinking leaders face an array of perplexing challenges that lie outside the performance envelope of management-as-usual. Motivation Accelerating Change. In a world that is all punctuation and no equilibrium, 3.0 organizations must become as adaptable and resilient as they are focused and efficient. Hyper-competition. In an open and dynamic economy, where organizations must compete with "everyone from everywhere ," organizations must learn to innovate boldly and incessantly. Knowledge Leveling. In an increasingly flat world, where knowledge advantages are fleeting, organizations must find ways of inspiring individuals to willingly contribute the gifts of their initiative, imagination and passion every day.

  • Best Practice for Selecting Software to Support NPD Process Management
    Best practice for selecting software to support NPD process management Janaina M. H. Costa, Creusa Sayuri T. Amaral, Henrique Rozenfeld University of Sao Paulo e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The use of software solutions is one way to improve NPD processes. However, this practice is still underestimated due to the lack of a comprehensive selection process of software toward the necessities of SME´s NPD. Therefore, this paper presents a method that allows SME to analyze and select software, on their own, which supports NPD processes. The method systematizes the search of empirical knowledge about NPD best practices. This knowledge may be updated by a community of practices based on previous experiences of selecting and applying new solutions to NPD. This can be reused as a background for enterprises to define their criteria without starting from the very beginning. This paper also reports an empirical application which highlights the criteria used to select the software. Keywords: NPD best practices; tool selection, reference model. 1. Introduction may not take place at technological SMEs. While they may not be able to afford external consultants, they still need Today’s small and medium technological enterprises to adopt tools and software that best meet their financial, (SMEs) are organizing into networks so as to (1) increase cultural and technological requirements. their visibility in the marketplace, (2) share experiences, Fortunately, a lot of free software that supports NPD can knowledge and abilities and (3) seek new ways to reduce be found on the Internet, thus, SMEs can take advantage of costs. Nonetheless, there remains the challenge of promoting them to improve their NPD processes.

    Technology Fee Concept Paper Proposal Template Title: ufstudent.org, Web Space and Resources for Student Organizations Proposer: Anne L. Allen, Assistant Director, Center for Instructional Technology & Training, Academic Technology, [email protected], 352-271-4909, 2215 Turlington Hall, FAX 352-392-7065; Rodger Hendricks, [email protected], Instructional Computing Services, Academic Technology, 352-392-2316, 229 Hub, FAX 352-392-3760 Sponsoring Organization: Academic Technology, Dr. Fedro Zazueta, Associate CIO Purpose: Provide a centralized service to facilitate the organization, activity and use of web resources by over 900 student organizations at UF. Background: Currently, student organizations use the GROVE webhosting service. GROVE services use dated technology that required it be deprecated in October, 2009, and is being divested from, starting with student web page organizations, which will be retired in February 2011. As a result there will be no supported services for the approximately over 900 student organizations. This project will: 1) Provide web hosting services for student organization websites. 2) Provide up-to-date web technologies. 3) Provide UF-sponsored centralized management and support service for the various needs of student organizations. 4) Provide oversight and communication with student organizations on UF policy. Impact/Benefit: Service improvements can easily be attained at a comparatively (to UF) low cost by utilizing standard application panel selection available at most hosted services. These improved services will be available to the over 900 UF student organizations, and through the organizations potentially reach every student at UF. The availability of social networking software such as blogs, wikis and discussion boards will assist in fostering the growth of communication.

  • An Application to Select Collaborative Project Management Software Tools
    An Application to Select Collaborative Project Management Software Tools Juliana Oliveira3, Anabela Tereso1,3, and Ricardo J. Machado2,3 1 CGIT Research Centre 2 ALGORITMI Research Centre 3 School of Engineering, University of Minho 4800-058 Guimarães, Portugal [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. In an increasingly competitive market the use of project management techniques can help controlling scope, time, and cost in an efficient way. Either due to size or complexity that may exist in a project, it may be essential to use project management software tools. Some projects involve teams of people who may be geographically dispersed, being essential to exchange information among project stakeholders, hence the need for collaborative tools, best known as groupware. In this paper, we present an overview of project management and collaborative project management techniques and tools. Next, we present a framework, based on ISO 9126 and ISO 14598, to classify collaborative project management software tools. Finally, we present a model and an application to help on the selection of this type of tools. Keywords: Project Management, Collaborative Management, Collaborative Tools for Project Management. 1 Introduction Today, Project Management (PM) is a key area for organizations, because without PM techniques the effort to implement a project would summarize to the common sense of the project manager, being difficult to effectively monitor deadlines, manage resources and costs and keep the scope controlled. It is important, before defining more precisely what PM is, to establish what a project is. A project may be defined as a temporary endeavor that is progressively developed, aiming to create a unique product or service [1].

  • Developing a More Effective Creative Operations Management System for Creative Businesses
    Developing a More Effective Creative Operations Management System For Creative Businesses By Copyright ©2011 Ryan Hembree Submitted to the graduate degree program in Design Management and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson Michael D. Eckersley ________________________________ Richard L. Branham ________________________________ Alan R. McClure ________________________________ Wallace W. Meyer, Jr. Date Defended: April 22, 2011 The Thesis Committee for Ryan Hembree certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Developing a More Effective Creative Operations Management System For Creative Businesses THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK ________________________________ Chairperson Michael D. Eckersley Richard L. Branham Alan R. McClure Wallace W. Meyer, Jr. Date approved: April 22, 2011 ii Abstract: Most creative businesses remain limited in organizational size, sales, and profitability, primarily due to a lack of efficient management. Unless the principal or owner of a cre- ative business delegates some of the functional aspects of operations to other staff, or finds a way to automate core processes and procedures, the firm will experience volatility, growth struggles, and possibly even failure. By developing a project and knowledge man- agement system that is tailored to the unique needs of creative businesses, many of the daily tasks and management issues that currently overwhelm owners and principals will THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK be streamlined and automated. The C.O.M.mand Center (Creative Operations Manager) system is an online project, time and knowledge management system accessible through any web browser. The purpose of this project is to prove the value of such a system to creative businesses by research- ing user needs, determine why existing project management systems are not adequately meeting those needs, and then develop a design and “proof of concept” for a more appro- priate solution.

  • Digital Project Management Tools – What You Need to Know
    Digital project management tools – what you need to know What is best digital tool for project management? Of course, that depends on the needs, but how should I understand them? What’s on the market? And what are the trends? This article will tell you what you need to know. Various frameworks for project management such as ISO 21500, PMBOK® Guide (PMI®), PPS, Wenell, SCRUM, PRINCE 2 and others, describe many processes, methods and tools. The list is long and includes tools like Requirements and Change Management, Gantt Schemes, WBS, Risk Analysis, Monitoring, Reporting, etc. The tools can be used by hand, i.e. with pen and paper - or perhaps a whiteboard and sticky notes - and simple calculations. It works great - especially in early phases before structures and working methods have taken shape. In small projects where everyone is often gathered in the same place, it can even work for the entire journey from idea to delivery. But in larger projects and organizations, one should carefully consider using a digital tool, especially if the project team is scattered. It's about communication and transparency; about what happens in a project affects other projects; about dependencies between projects and other parts of the organization that deal with economics, staff, shared resources etc. Sometimes there are standards and legal requirements (e.g. traceability) that must be taken into account. In addition, there are often demands for efficiency improvements to keep costs down. All these factors are accelerating digitization and automation within project management. www.wenell.se Rev. 1.1 This article is not a complete market overview as it’s not really possible to keep one fully up to date or even made relevant (depending on how to draw the boundaries).
