Project Management: It's All Bollocks!

Project Management: It's All Bollocks!

Susie Palmer-Trew; Peter Taylor

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2022
nidottu
Welcome to Project Management: It’s All Bollocks! where two people who vaguely know each other and barely like each other will pick over the sadly inadequate body of knowledge that is project management today, and generally challenge just about everything, eliminating that which you don't need to bother to learn about, or should already know, leaving you only with the parts that will give you the results you want. This book is a shakedown of project management, the profession, the myths it creates and promotes, its great ideas and ambitions and a few ropey bits that we’re just not convinced about. The project management profession continues to grow and mature, but is at risk of excluding those who don’t fit the mould. There is a mystique out there that only certificated project managers can be project managers. This is nonsense. The project management skill set is accessible to anyone, and how you choose to access it and put it to use should remain the decision of the individual. There shouldn’t be a right or wrong choice. This book is targeted at those ‘projects as usual project managers’ who will drive most of the change inside organisations tomorrow and beyond, and who really need help to do that. The authors offer up a selection of seven cracking ideas, that when applied to a project environment will ultimately result in you being a good manager of projects in this modern world of business complexity.

The Climate Change Cook Book

The Climate Change Cook Book

Peter Taylor

Meze Publishing
2021
sidottu
The global food production system is responsible for a quarter of the world's total greenhouse gas emissions caused by humans. The food we waste accounts for 8 to 10% of those emissions, and we could feed an extra 2.4 billion people with everything that gets thrown away. Nearly 1 billion adults die from malnutrition or starvation each year, while around 670 million adults are obese. Food distribution is unbalanced and unfair. This book is a guide to eating healthily for yourself as well as for the planet; it features over 60 recipes created by PJ Taste, a catering company who have always put sustainability at the heart of their business, which are designed to offer information and inspiration for finding a balance that benefits your body and its environment. You will also find compelling facts and figures about global food production and plenty of ideas about how, by making small changes to your food choices, you can make a difference in the fight against the biggest challenge of our time: climate change.

Investment Decisions in Advanced Manufacturing Technology

Investment Decisions in Advanced Manufacturing Technology

Magdy G. Abdel-Kader; David Dugdale; Peter Taylor

Routledge
2020
nidottu
First published in 1998, this volume was designed to lead to an operational model of Advanced Manufacturing Technology (AMT) decision making which incorporated the mathematics of fuzzy set theory. The rapid advancement of robotics, automated technologies and software such as CAD and CAM have made such studies paramount. Here, analyses of a questionnaire survey and field study of major UK manufacturing companies together provide a simulating portrayal of AMT investment decision making and have been expanded upon with a model using fuzzy set theory.

Cities Demanding the Earth

Cities Demanding the Earth

Peter Taylor; Geoff O'Brien; Phil O'Keefe

Bristol University Press
2020
sidottu
This urgent book brings our cities to the fore in understanding the human input into climate change. The demands we are making on nature by living in cities has reached a crisis point and unless we make significant changes to address it, the prognosis is terminal consumption. Providing a radical new argument that integrates global understandings of making nature and making cities, the authors move beyond current policies of mitigation and adaption and pose the challenge of urban stewardship to tackle the crisis. Their new way of thinking re-orients possibilities for environmental policy and calls for us to reinvent our cities as spaces for activism.

From the Past

From the Past

Independently Published
2019

VETERAN CID boss Vic Pollard drinks too much, thinks too much (about the childhood he lost because of his war-damaged father), and hits rock bottom when he is overlooked for the top job he thought had his name on it - in favour of a rank outsider. He quits the Northumbria police force but there is no escape when a dismembered body is found in a giant petrol storage tank being drained of leaded petrol as part of the quiet, green forecourt revolution which ended the four-star era at the advent of the new millennium. It has been hidden away in time and perfectly preserved for decades and is to plunge Vic back in to the past which haunts him, dragging all manner of skeletons out of the cupboard. With the man who pinched his job gunning for him, he must fight for the living and the dead...and his own sanity. The only way is to fight dirty.

Halvin toimitettuna 18,90 €

Brian Clough famously remarked, `I’m not equipped to manage successfully without Peter Taylor. I am the shop window and he is the goods in the back.’ Often outrageous and always compelling, Peter Taylor and Brian Clough’s partnership shook the very foundations of the footballing world. They took two peripheral clubs – Derby County and Nottingham Forest – from the sleepy backwaters of East Midlands football to international renown. The first to pay £1 million for a player and the first to win two European Cups and two League Cups in successive seasons, their journey was a whirlwind of trophies, record-breaking transfers, bust-ups and sackings. In a first-hand account told with immense candour, Taylor reveals the highs and lows of their relationship, and details the events that led to their unprecedented success. Originally published in 1980 and available now for the first time in forty years, With Clough, By Taylor is the definitive account of the partnership that revolutionised English football and the trade of the football manager.

In a career spanning over half a century, Peter Taylor explored in exquisite detail the dramas, large and small, of a Tennessee gentry struggling with the loss of the old certainties in an Old South becoming new. A winner of both the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the Penn/Faulkner Award and a regular contributor to The New Yorker, he was, in the estimation of Anne Tyler, othe undisputed master of the short-story form. You could give a creative writing class with no other text but his stories and that class would come out fully educated.o Now, for his centennial year, Taylor joins fellow twentieth-century masters William Faulkner, Eudora Welty, Flannery O'Connor, and John Updike in the Library of America series an unprecedented two-volume edition of his complete short fiction. Edited by acclaimed writer Ann Beattie, it brings together for the first time all sixty of the stories that Taylor published during his professional career as writer, half of them restored to print for the first time in decades and five never before collected in book form. (This second volume, as a special feature, includes his remarks on accepting the Gold Medal in the Short Story from the American Academy and Institute of Arts & Letters in 1978.) Several of these works-including oVenus, Cupid, Folly, and Time,o oIn the Miro District,o and oThe Old Foresto-are anthology classics. All are masterly contributions to the literature of the South and the art of the American short story.
