...1. Introduction The growing diversity of projects is being reflected in a growing diversity of ways to manage them. The dominant approach to project management remains the ‘‘plandriven” model, as exemplified by the Bodies of Knowledge (BOKs) of the various PM professional associations (e.g. Project Management Institute, 2004). However alternative or complementary approaches such as lean, agile, and soft systems methods have gained acceptance in some fields, and are beginning to spread beyond their areas of origin (e.g. Poppendieck and Poppendieck, 2003; Yeo, 1993). Even within the plan-driven model, increasingly diverse methods are being advocated. Despite this increasing range of available management choices, project managers frequently fail to seriously consider their alternatives (Brown et al., 2000; Shenhar, 2001). This may be partly because they do not consider this to be within the scope of ‘‘project management”, (although it is clearly part of the wider concept of ‘‘management of projects” (Morris et al., 2006)). But the lack of decision support tools also discourages such consideration. Although project categorisation systems are common within organisations, these are generally narrowly tailored and categorisation criteria often are not logically linked with objectives (Crawford et al., 2005). Hence there is a need for enhanced methods for relating PM approaches to projects. One path to such methods is via project contingency theory (PCT). PCT...

...Article Title Page The moderating role of supply network structure on the customer integration–efficiency relationship Author Details Prof. Pamela Danese Department of Management and Engineering, University of Padova, Vicenza, Italy. Prof. Pietro Romano Department of Electrical, Managerial and Mechanical Engineering, University of Udine, Udine, Italy Corresponding author: Pietro Romano Corresponding Author’s Email: pietro.romano@uniud.it Structured Abstract: Purpose: To study whether a fast supply network structure interacts with Customer Integration (CI) by positively moderating the relationship between CI and efficiency performance. Design/methodology/approach: Two hypotheses are developed, incorporating dimensions of Customer Integration, Fast Supply Network Structure and Efficiency performance. The hypotheses are tested through a hierarchical regression analysis using data from a sample of 200 manufacturing plants. Findings: CI alone is not enough to guarantee cost reductions because a fast supply network structure acts as a moderator of the CI-efficiency relationship. The role of this moderator is twofold. On the one hand, it interacts with CI, strengthening the positive impact of CI on efficiency through a positive complementary effect. On the other hand, if the supply network structure is not intended to support fast lead times, the impact of CI on efficiency can be hindered and, in extreme cases, CI can even make efficiency worse. Practical implications: Efficiency maximization...

...Article Rickard, C. M., McCann, D., Munnings, J., & McGrail, M. R. (2010). Routine resite of peripheral intravenous devices every 3 days did not reduce complications compared with clinically indicated resite: a randomised controlled trial. BMC Medicine, 853. doi:10.1186/1741-7015-8-53 Background Information The purpose of this article was to study if only changing peripheral intravenous catheters when clinically indicated verses every 72-96 hours was beneficial in regards to cost, patient outcomes, and staff workload. This subject made sense to this author as a practicing nurse on an inpatient oncology unit that manages all intravenous access sites. As a practicing nurse, it was not a rational process. This author often questioned discontinuing an access site when there was no evidence of clinical necessity. The authors indicated that peripheral intravenous catheters are the most common invasive treatment that patients experience while hospitalized. As an invasive procedure, the authors note that there is a risk of phlebitis and bloodstream bacterial infections. Phlebitis is indicated if there is pain, redness, or swelling at the site due to irritation from the catheter. The CDC currently recommends replacement of peripheral intravenous catheters every 72-96 hours. The authors reference previous studies indicating that the longer the need for treatment requiring a catheter the greater the risk of developing phlebitis versus the length of time one...

...COURSE TITLE: STRATEGIC OPERATIONS MANAGEMENT.20110224.202 (UKL1.STRGOM.2011224.202) MODULE PROJECT: Organizational Goal of PZ Cussons Limited’s goal: Describing and assessing the strategy employed. Name: Joshua Seyram Amoah 15785702 Date: 27 April 2011. 1.0 ABSTRACT The purpose of this project work is to investigate and understand the relationship between the organizational goal of PZ Cussons and the operations strategy employed in driving towards the achievement of this goal, at the end of this paper we should be able to conclusively deduce how successful this strategy was and the impacts of it on the organization. A wide variety of information sources will be used for this project work, however the primary source of information and data will be provided in PZ Cussons, 2010 Annual Report (PZ Cussons, 2010a) and from interviews with staff from PZ Cussons Ghana (Awotwe, E. and Amofa, B., 2011). Other materials will be employed such as books, internet sources, journal articles, media articles, and interviews, these sources will be used to support the discussion and assist in arriving at a conclusion concerning the success or failure of implementing that operations strategy. 2.0 BACKGROUND. PZ Cussons was established by Messer’s George Paterson and George Zochonis in 1879 as a trading post in Sierra Leone and named Paterson Zochonis. The company’s primary focus was the export of West African produce (palm products, nuts, etc.) into Europe through the United Kingdom...

...resource management (HRM) becomes SHRM when the workforce is well trained so that they seek competitive advantage. Only a committed workforce may not contribute in competitive edge (Mavin, 2000). For an instance, Ann had not had a proper training before staring her shifts. Even if she is hard working and leaves a nice touch after her work, she might not be contributing in competitive advantage for KCS over other cleaning organizations. Furthermore, HRM should take place in the early stage of a corporate planning to make it SHRM. It is not about fixing employment problem in middle of organization’s operation. It is integrated with corporate strategy so that organization can have the right people at the right place at the right time(Van Donk, 2001). For example, Ann was struggling about the appraisal system because she was not aware of it while she joined KCS. Finally, authority and HR managers must have a channel for communication. Effectively HR managers will assess the role of a employee to achieve organizational goals. If senior management does not listen to HR managers, employees they will be hiring will not be able to help in organizational mission and vision. For instance, KCS did not plan what they will be doing with Ann for future; instead they employed Ann as their client base got increased. Assessing the purpose of SHRM (AC 1.2)\ Firstly, as discussed earlier, only a committed workforce is not enough to achieve competitive advantage. Ann should have gone through...

...Feminist perspectives are slowly becoming the standard for deconstructing popular culture. When doing so issues of masculine hegemony, gender roles, heteronormativity, objectivity, and an abundance of other concepts that stir up controversy are brought to the surface. Popular culture allows for the challenging of problems women have faced for many years, but it some cases is adheres to these traditions. It is vital to be able to see the overall message in a pop culture text in order to understand its implications. Some texts hold messages that were not intended to be there in the first place. There will forever be controversy when it comes to pop culture, especially when it comes to television shows, as the average Canadian watches 30 hours of T.V a week. (Ryan, 2013) When being constantly exposed to these messages it is important to know what information you are being fed. Some shows are more complex than others, and consist of mixed messages when looking at them from a feminist standpoint. One example of this would be The Mindy Project, a sitcom that first aired in 2012, and has since gained an average of $2.34 million viewers per episode, (IMDb, 2012) The Mindy Project is packed full of messages that can be depicted from a feminist standpoint, but are often blurred behind the hilarity it is known for. To give a brief synopsis of the show, Mindy Lahiri, played by Mindy Kaling, also the director of the show is the main character and also the narrator. The show is about her...

...[pic] Seperti tulisan saya terdahulu disini, tidak semua sakit maag dapat diatasi dengan golongan antasida (seperti minum Mylanta, promag biasa) tetapi ada beberapa golongan lain seperti H2 Antagonis/ H2 Blokers dan Proton Pump Inhibitor serta obat tambahan lainnya seperti Sucralfate, Rebamipide, Fucoidan. Biar tidak terlalu texbook kaya kuliahan, saya langsung pada aplikasinya saja. Gambar diambil disini. 1. Nyeri Lambung pake antasida = seperti mylanta, promag biasa ( isinya Al(OH)2, Mg(OH)2, Simetikon) 2. Nyeri Esofagus (nyeri ulu hati disatu titik) bisa pake H2 Ant = seperti Ranitidine, Famotidine. 3. Nyeri Usus halus (duodenum/intestine) pake Proton Pump Inhibitor = seperti Lanzoprazole, Omeprazole, Pantoprazole. Quote ini harus dicatat dan diingat ya!. Ada beberapa hal dasar yang harus diketahui. Pertama, mengapa obat golongan Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPi) mengobati hanya di usus halus? karena obat golongan PPI berbentuk coated (disalut) agar tidak pecah di asam lambung melainkan baru akan pecah obatnya diusus halus, jadi obat ini tidak boleh digerus. Kedua, kapan saya harus minum H2 bloker? Jika terjadi nyeri di ulu hati. Biasanya saat makanan berada dilambung, dapat terjadi reflux (keluarnya isi lambung keatas) sehingga isi lambung yang bersifat asam dapat melukai dinding esofagus, makanya sakitnya hanya disatu titik saja. Ketiga, kenapa kalo minum antasida (promag) harus dikunyah dulu sebelum ditelan? karena obatnya dirancang untuk mengembang dulu dimulut biar...

...*** A Complete Guide to Beating the Micros *** PROLOGUE The goal of this guide is to provide anyone with the skill-set and knowledge needed to beat the micro limits online. A lot of people will shrug off the micros and repeat the same thing over and over: "Value bet, don't bluff, ????, PROFIT!". They’re actually right, but I don't feel that advice in and of itself is that helpful to a new player. Beating the micro limits online is a pretty simple process, but getting to that simple process is a whole other story. For a lot of players, including myself, it's a big hump to get over and hopefully this guide can make it easier. If you've been playing 2NL, 5NL, 10NL, or 25NL online and can't seem to post a profit, win consistently or beat the limit, then this guide is for you. This guide will be updated as required with suggestions from more experienced players than myself and possibly with links to further reading as well. Yes this is very long, but with poker you pretty much get what you put in If you're already beating 25NL or above you probably won't get any new information from this, but feel free to read it. Enjoy! WHY WE WIN: THANKS FOR ALL THE FISH First let's explain exactly why beating the micro limits is so easy. I think knowing why what you're doing works is extremely helpful when you're learning. Poker is a game of skill, like chess or backgammon. The short term goal of poker is to win money, but the underlying goal of any game like poker or chess isn't actually...
