Taylor & Francis Ltd Agile Portfolio Management
Book SynopsisAgile Portfolio Management deals with how an organization identifies, prioritizes, organizes, and manages different products. This is done in a streamlined way in order to optimize the development of value in a manner that's sustainable in the long run. It ensures that a company provides their clients with the best value for their investment. A good portfolio manager understands and follows the agile principles while also considering the various factors needed to successfully manage numerous teams and projects. The project management offices of many organizations are faced with the reality of more and more agile deliverables as part of agile transformations; however, they lack the knowledge to perform these tasks. Researchers and practitioners have a good understanding of project, program, and portfolio management from a plan-based perspective. They have common standards from Axelos, PMI, and others, so they know the best practices.

Taylor & Francis Creating an LGBT Inclusive Workplace The
Book SynopsisThis approachable and easy to follow book guides current and future leaders of all industries toward appropriate and proven ways to create safer working environments, update company policies, enhance continuing education and training, and better support LGBT+ people in the workplace.Trade Review"In her first book, Kryss Shane created an invaluable resource to help schools become LGBTQ affirming environments. This time she is using her almost 30 years of experience and insight to transform workplaces. Although suicide is the second leading cause of death among youth, the highest suicide rate in the USA is among working-aged adults 45 - 60. One step towards reducing adult suicide is creating a workplace that affirms LGBTQ employees and parents of LGBTQ youth. While the June 2020 Supreme Court decision protecting LGBTQ workers under the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was necessary, it was not sufficient to ensure workplaces were affirming environments. Shane's book meets this need and fills this gap." -Dr. Jonathan Singer, President of the American Association of Suicidology"Let's get down to business: whether you are a current business leader, someone dreaming or planning to become a leader in your industry, an advocate, or a customer who supports businesses invested in LGBT+ inclusion, Kryss Shane consistently delivers as the most engaging go-to coach and educator on best practices for creating supportive and productive LGBT+ inclusive businesses and workplaces. Kryss' coaching and interactive key lessons, guidelines, and leadership challenges exploring how and why creating LGBT+ inclusive work life is good business practice presented here could not be timelier or more on the money."-Andrea Shorter, Co-Founder, Bayard Rustin LGBTQ Coalition; Former Director of Community Relations, Out & Equal Workplace Advocates; Former Director, Marriage Equality and Coalitions Strategies, Equality California; Inclusive and Safe Community Building Consultant and StrategistTable of ContentsAcknowledgements; How Big of a Problem Is This?; Preface; Foreword by PostSecret; Introduction; Section I- The Foundation: Terminology and Insights; Safety; Allyship; Why It Matters That You Are an LGBT+ Ally; Who Am I and What Traits Do I Bring to Allyship?; How to Be an Active Ally; Privilege; Intersectionality; Battle Fatigue; Terminology; In Broad Terms; Sexual Orientations; Gender Identity; Additional Useful Terminology; Coming Out; Questions and Answers; Research Your Resources; Safety and medical emergencies on business grounds; Health and wellness concerns at home; Safety emergencies occurring at home; In Closing; Section II: Scenarios: Test Your Knowledge; Scenario 1; Scenario 2; Scenario 3; Scenario 4; Scenario 5; Scenario 6; Scenario 7; Scenario 8; Scenario 9; Scenario 10; Scenario 11; Scenario 12; Scenario 13; Scenario 14; Section III Put Your Knowledge into Practice; Assessing Your Business; First impressions; Hiring Processes; After Being Hired; The Written Rules; Introduction into the Learning Environment; Assessing Your Business; In the Office and Collaborative Spaces; Leadership and Learning Materials; How to Implement Change; In the Meantime/On Your Own; Physical Space; Inclusive Curricula and Printed Training Materials; In Closing; Appendix I: Opposition; Business district leaders (including C-suite and business board members); Business leaders (including supervisors and department heads); Company Employees; Employees’ Families (including parents, children, and other loved ones); Interviews; Lau Viggo Albjerg, GlaxoSmithKline & Colgate; Lauren Banyar Reich, LBR Public Relations; Bill Barretta, The Muppets; Greg DeShields, City of Philadelphia; Richard Gray, City of Fort Lauderdale; Sally Hogshead, CEO How to Fascinate; Kenny Johnson, Philadelphia Phillies; Shelly McNamara, Proctor & Gamble; Brian McNaught, The Godfather of Gay Diversity Training; Jerrie Merritt, Bank of Nevada; Gary Murakami, MGM Resorts International; Alfredo Pedroza, Wells Fargo; Howard Ross, Cook Ross & Udarta; Josh Scott, GracePointe Church; Andrea Shorter, City of San Francisco; Additional Resources; Archives and collections; Arts, literature, and culture; E-journals and Online; Newspapers; Gender Identity and Sexual Orientation; General Resources; History; Legal; Organizations; Religion

Filled with insight from managers and CEOs in science and technology organisations, the book unlocks the skills required to balance the leadership and managerial needs of the organisation, motivate the technical teams and drive successful innovation in new product development environments.

Taylor & Francis Making Meetings Work The Art of Chairing
Book SynopsisThis short, accessible book on the art of chairing is an indispensable guide to help Chairs and meetings (of all types) to work more effectively. There are millions of meetings every day in public and private organisations. A poor Chair can lead to unproductive meetings, weak outcomes, unclear actions and even major fallouts. Many types of meeting within business settings and beyond are covered in this short book â from regular meetings to company board meetings, conferences and senior level regulatory meetings. It covers both physical meetings and virtual chairing.Using a light-hearted approach and written by a globally recognised Chairperson of leading technology, media and communications businesses and regulatory bodies during times of great change, the book offers a practical, jargon-free approach that covers many types of meeting. It will be of use to Chairs in the business environment, the public sector at local, regional and national levels, and in many types of communities and gatherings. It is interspersed with anecdotes and examples that bring the text to life and give powerful stories that everyone can learn from. As a result, meetings of all sorts will be more productive, and, importantly, more fun. As a result, people will become better chairs. The book is a perfect quick reference tool for anyone currently involved in chairing meetings and is wanting to hone their skills, or anyone new to the art of chairing meetings and wants to get quickly up to speed.Trade Review"Meetings are corporate ritual, a massive cost of time, talent and energy to any organisation. They are viral decay. This brilliant book explains how to stop viral decay, and stop it right now." - Simon Jenkins "Making Meetings Work – the Art of Chairing is an essential guide for those who wish to chair meetings where no one feels left out or their opinions unheard. Richard chairs meetings like a great maestro conducting an orchestra. At the forefront of his mind are integrity, fairness as well as diversity. I am proud to have sat at the same table as him". - Baroness Floella Benjamin"A decade ago Richard Hooper gave me a report on the future of the Royal Mail for the government. It was one of the best ever written. A decade later he has done it again, this time about how to make meetings shorter, more effective, more productive, and more enjoyable. What it lacks in jargon and business speak is made up for by his entertaining personal experiences and graveyard humour: the table used by the PM to chair Cabinet meetings in 10 Downing Street is, he is told by a civil servant, "coffin-shaped. Everyone can see everyone." There is even discussion of access to my "ministerial biscuit tin"! The book is bang up to date with a final chapter on lessons from the pandemic – how to chair meetings in the modern digital era where even the biscuits are virtual". - Lord Peter Mandelson, Co-Founder and Chairman, Global Counsel"inspired guidance for successful meetings - essential reading for any Chair - new or experienced." - Stephanie Liston, Chair Jersey Competition Regulatory Authority"Richard’s book is simply excellent. It reflects the lifetime’s work and learning of one of the most accomplished Chairs I have known. He shares many of the secrets that allow for the bringing together of differing views around a table and shows how to create full support for a strategy and its implementation. I will be recommending it to all my clients." - Stephen Bampfylde, Founder and Partner, Saxton-Bampfylde"Hooper's mix of perceptive advice, practical tips and deep personal experience, are a must read for anyone who wants to be In The Chair, rather than simply In The Room ... a well-written tome … a well-written read." - Stephen Carter, CEO Informa plc"One thing in life that we always have is our experiences. Sharing those experiences with others, and the insights and learnings you make, is a gift. This book is one such gift. It contains a lifetime of chairing experiences of all shapes and sizes in a succinct delightful and practical read. Whether you are chairing a small family or team meeting, or a public sector or large global company board, this handbook is gold for anyone who wants to make meetings purposeful, effective and fun." - Vanessa Oakley, Executive General Manager Strategy & Business Operations, Chorus New Zealand Limited"Meetings are corporate ritual, a massive cost of time, talent and energy to any organisation.
