Ross McIntyre and his wife Jean spent 40 years together paddling the great wilderness rivers of North America. Paddle Beads is Ross's inspirational and moving memoir of those trips and the resultant lifetime journey they took together. For those whose hands have not yet grown a paddle callus, McIntyre offers a glimpse of what to expect as a canoe paddle becomes a real companion. For those with miles of water behind and more to come, these pieces will vividly bring back the sensation as the bow rises on a wave or as the canoe leans into a turn. And for those who are content to sit comfortably at the fireside and dream about the way things should be, Paddle Beads will take your imagination on a lasting journey. ---------------- "Paddle Beads is a deeply sensitive, introspective view of how wild places and the magic of canoes shape the human spirit. Masterfully written and rich with life lessons, the author's passion for adventure and his respect for humanity shine through on every page. I simply couldn't put this book down!" Cliff Jacobson

Practitioners operate in a necessary reality. We work in a space where project performance is above theory or methodology. In the best environments, delivery and an affirmative culture are what matter most. In the worst, it is politics and survival. In any environment we are challenged to adopt best practices and adapt our style to the environment in which the project is occurring. This is a book about those best practices and practitioner experiences. It is a must have reference and guide book for project managers, general managers, business leaders and project management researchers. This book is the result of the hard work and dedication of more than 35 authors from more than 15 countries across four continents. It brings a diversity of experience, professional and personal. It includes practitioners, leading academics, renowned theorists and many who straddle those roles. The chapters cover experiences in software, large scale infrastructure projects, finance and health care, to name a few. The chapters themselves take many forms. Check out the table of contents to get a deeper sense of the topics included. All provide real-world guidance on delivering high performing projects and show you how to build, lead and manage high performing teams. The Practitioners Handbook of Project Performance is complete in itself. It can also be an enticing start to an ongoing dialogue with the authors and a pleasurable path to get deeper into the subject of project performance. Find your favorite place to begin learning from these chapters, to begin taking notes and taking away nuggets to use in your everyday. But don’t stop there. Contact information and further resources for this diverse team of experts authors are found throughout. The Practitioners Handbook is a modern guide to the leading edge of project performance management and a path to the future of project delivery.

A 260-page, full-color book that will help you: STOP REACTING TO NOISE. START RESPONDING TO SIGNALS. Measures of Success shows business leaders how. A PRACTICAL GUIDE FOR HOW TO MANAGE YOUR METRICS Organizations depend on metrics for their business. Question is, are they helping people do the right things? Or, encouraging them to overreact to every uptick, downturn, and change? In other words, reacting to noise. Noise is present in every metric. But, it's our reaction to noise that causes waste and stress. Too often, people don't recognize this. Like feeling stuck on a rollercoaster you no longer enjoy. We do and explain things that don't help us improve. At the cost of doing things that do. No need to be jittery about every change in a metric. Not by a long shot. Measures of Success shows a better way to chart and manage your metrics, in any organization or setting. For your business processes and activities, you need to know what's working, what's not, and what to change. And why. Then, you can determine what to stop doing, what to start doing, what to keep doing. So you can... Jump off the metrics rollercoaster, by responding to signals. Systematically. Sustainably. Learn how to identify meaningful signals in a metric. To respond just right. Or perhaps, not at all. You'll learn how with methods easy to understand, making it obvious what activities to do next. Loads of vivid stories and clear examples from healthcare, software companies, and more. With compelling case studies from the news and personal lives, too. "What gets measured gets managed." We've all heard that. But did you ever learn how to manage a metric? This ain't about gaming the system or fudging the numbers. This is about delivering real value, understood by everyone, and proven with data. Learn a better way to manage your measures. WHO IS MEASURES OF SUCCESS FOR? EXECUTIVES AND LEADERS...in healthcare, manufacturing, and services. Who know what to measure, and are now ready to learn how to manage those measurements. And... WILLING TO... Challenge and change the way things are done today Motivate workers to think and do them better tomorrow Coach people, versus telling them what to do Be responsible for results, not hold others accountable Encourage people to collaborate, not compete Help people sleep better at night because they're improving their work during the day TO BE CLEAR Measures of Success is not for leaders who'd rather give orders. Then, blame others when things go south. That whole hit the target or else thing... won't create real change, nor real value. But that ain't you, right? AFTER READING MEASURES OF SUCCESS ...you'll be able to answer three critical questions for your business. Are we achieving our target? And, how often? Occasionally? Consistently? Are we improving? And, can we predict our future performance? How do we improve? And, when do we react? When do we ignore? When do we improve? ...AND HOW CAN WE PROVE WE'RE IMPROVING? How would you feel if you could answer these questions for your business? Measures of Success shows you how. PROCESS BEHAVIOR CHARTS This book teaches you a proven method for filtering out noise, so we can identify signals. This means we waste less time chasing our tail and more time responding to signals that really matter, heading off small problems before they become big, or showing that we've boosted performance in significant and sustainable ways.

Business students need the ability to think statistically about how to deal with uncertainty and its effect on decision-making in business and management. Traditional statistics courses and textbooks tend to focus on probability, mathematical detail, and heavy computation, and thus fail to meet the needs of future managers. Statistical Thinking in Business, Second Edition responds to the growing recognition that we must change the way business statistics is taught. It shows how statistics is important in all aspects of business and equips students with the skills they need to make sensible use of data and other information. The authors take an interactive, scenario-based approach and use almost no mathematical formulas, opting to use Excel for the technical work. This allows them to focus on using statistics to aid decision-making rather than how to perform routine calculations. New in the Second Edition: A completely revised chapter on forecasting Re-arrangement of the material on data presentation with the inclusion of histograms and cumulative line plots A more thorough discussion of the analysis of attribute data Coverage of variable selection and model building in multiple regression End of chapter summaries More end of chapter problems A variety of case studies throughout the book The second edition also comes with a wealth of ancillary materials provided on a CD-ROM packaged with the book. These include automatically-marked multiple-choice questions, answers to questions in the text, data sets, Excel experiments and demonstrations, an introduction to Excel, and the StiBstat Add-In for stem and leaf plots, box plots, distribution plots, control charts and summary statistics. Solutions to end-of-chapter exercises and powerpoint slides for lecturers are available directly from the publisher.
