Are you stuck in a rut despite your best efforts to get out? Looking for long-term solutions to your problems?
We have the best of intentions to improve our conditions, but often our solutions fall short of improving our lives. Sometimes our best efforts can result in the opposite of what we want over time. How can we avoid these unwanted results?
If we apply conventional thinking to complex issues, we often maintain or increase the very problems we want to fix. There is, however, a solution to get the desired results.
Think in Systems is a concise information manual offering high-level problem-solving methods for personal and global issues. The book presents the main features of systems thinking in an understandable and everyday manner, helping you to develop this skill top analysts and world leaders use.
If you thought that complex thinking is only for people who deal with complex issues like running a company or country, think again. Every issue is complex. Running out of gas is a simple problem, but I'm sure you're dealing with much greater headaches on a daily basis.
Your life is a system. Everything that is connected to your system (life) is a part of it. However, you are just a subsystem in the larger picture. Your town, country, the world, the solar system are all bigger systems you are a part of. These systems are interconnected. Whatever you do will affect the system and whatever the system does will affect your life.
Systems can have positive and negative effect on your life - or on the life of people generally. The greatest problems like hunger, war, and poverty are all failures in the system. Similarly, fights with your loved ones, being stuck in a rut at your job are also system failures. They are not only your fault. Thus they can't be fixed with a simple cause-effect thinking.
Learn to use systems thinking in your business, relationships, friendships, and general political, socio-economic, and environmental issues.
Systems thinking boosts your critical thinking skills, makes you more logical, enhances your analytical abilities, and makes you more creative.
Systems thinking won't put extra pressure on your cognition. Quite the contrary, you'll have fewer headaches knowing that you surely didn't miss any detail when you tried to solve a problem.
"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." Albert Einstein

After two decades of research on founders, a bestselling book on the subject, and experience teaching and mentoring thousands of students in this field, Noam Wasserman is a prominent authority on startups. Hearing from countless readers and students that his insights helped them with important life decisions, beyond the incubator and boardroom, Wasserman brings us a new book that applies to everyday life his research on the methods of successful startup founders.
Like entrepreneurs, we all deal with uncertainty, tough decision-making, and necessary problem-solving. Whether we freelance or work for large organizations, whether we're married or single, have kids or not, we must be able to think on our feet, assess risks and opportunities, and recruit others to help us navigate them. This book offers important advice for envisioning change in our lives--from contemplating the next step in a relationship to making a radical career move--and managing changes to which we've already committed. We can learn to recognize our own well-worn patterns and keep our tendencies and habits in check, recruit a personal taskforce--our own board of directors--to advise us, and plan ahead for growth. With his extensive database of entrepreneurship case studies--from Pandora to Twitter to Nike--complemented with data on 20,000 founders, Wasserman is able to go deeply into the entrepreneurial mindset and show us how startups provide specific lessons for crafting our most successful lives.

Автор: Zinkin, John Название: Better governance across the board ISBN: 1547417110 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781547417117 Издательство: Walter de Gruyter Рейтинг: Цена: 42140.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Better Governance Across the Board is a practical guide for achieving good corporate governance of organizations regardless of whether they are for profit, listed, state-owned, family owned, or widely held. It delves into the questions boards must ask if they are to fulfill their fiduciary duties, taking account of regulatory issues. Part 1 defines corporate governance, explaining the four reasons why it matters and how it applies to a wide range of organizations. Part 2 explores the "Five P" framework of Purpose, Principles, Power, People, and Processes that helps boards to create sustainable value. Part 3 concludes by showing how the organization’s long-term "license to operate" is achieved by boards focusing on the three most important assets of the organization: its reputation; its people, and its processes. This book explores the dilemmas that currently exist in modern approaches to corporate governance and suggests ways of overcoming them. Based on ten years of teaching more than 1,500 directors of publicly listed companies, it integrates key principles of leadership, ethics, branding, and governance into a unique five-factor framework to help directors make good decisions in strategy, risk management, succession planning, internal controls, and stakeholder engagement.

The recent issue of the revised International Standard has introduced new thinking into the text of the document. Companies that are embarking on accreditation for the first time should embrace these requirements as they design their Quality Management Systems. Companies that have already achieved the 2008 version have until September 2018 to convert their systems to the 2015 version of ISO 9001.
New companies 'coming on board' after this date should use this document to assist in their application of systems and documents.
This handbook will guide you through the various paragraphs of the standard and offer my interpretation of models and templates to work with and to embed into your new Quality Management System. If you have an integrated system with the Environmental Standard (ISO 14001) there is some read-across to interpretation, but this handbook does not address all the Environmental considerations.
