Описание: Selected for common reading at North Lake College

Nominated as one of America's best-loved novels by PBS's The Great American Read

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars.

Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there.

After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive--and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive.

Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain-old "human error" are much more likely to kill him first.

But Mark isn't ready to give up yet. Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills--and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit--he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him?

Описание: I`m stranded on Mars. I have no way to communicate with Earth. I`m in a Habitat designed to last 31 days. If the Oxygenator breaks down, I`ll suffocate. If the Water Reclaimer breaks down, I`ll die of thirst. If the Hab breaches, I`ll just kind of explode. If none of those things happen, I`ll eventually run out of food and starve to death.

Описание: Dieses Buch handelt von dem Wie des Projektmanagements. Wie Sie die vielen verfuegbaren Methoden integrieren und kombinieren. Wie Sie eine proaktive Einstellung nutzen koennen, um auch in schwierigen Situationen die Kontrolle zu behalten. Wie Sie sich selbst von einem Kontrolleur in einen Beeinflusser verwandeln. Wie Sie agil handeln, auch in traditionellen Organisationen. Wie Sie Projektmanagement in Ihren persoenlichen Stil und taeglichen Arbeitsablauf integrieren. Wie Sie sicherstellen, dass Sie auch wirklich damit anfangen es zu nutzen! Wie Sie bei all dem sich selbst treu bleiben koennen.Heutige Projektmanager muessen hohe Erwartungen erfuellen. Herausfordernde Ziele, ein starker Fokus auf Kostenmanagement und Lieferzeiten, die Erfuellung der Erwartungen vieler Stakeholder und viele Abhaengigkeiten zwischen Unterprojekten machen das Projektmanagement zu einer zunehmend komplexen Aufgabe - besonders in einer Umgebung, in der Aenderungen und Unsicherheiten zur Norm geworden sind. Zusaetzlich muessen die kreativen Faehigkeiten der Wissensarbeiter bestmoeglich genutzt werden, was wiederum weniger hierarchische Organisationsstrukturen und mehr multidisziplinaere Zusammenarbeit erfordert. Die richtigen Projektmanagement-Fertigkeiten zu besitzen, ist daher essenziell auf praktisch jeder Ebener einer Organisation.Diese Herausforderungen resultieren in einem wachsenden Bedarf an umfassenden Methoden und der Zunahme der Popularitaet von Agile. Andererseits fuehrt die wachsende Komplexitaet gerade zu einem Beduerfnis an Einfachheit. Genau hierum geht es in diesem Buch: Sich auf die Grundlagen besinnen, in der Lage zu sein nuetzliche Elemente von verschiedenen Methoden zu kombinieren und sich auf die wichtigsten Aspekte zu fokussieren: Die Person hinter dem Projektmanager!Dieses Buch enthaelt eine Vielfalt an praktischen Beschreibungen mit nuetzlichen Beispielen und Anekdoten. Der Leser wird stets angeregt die Essenz zu verinnerlichen und diese seines eigenen Stils und seiner Personalitaet entsprechend in der Praxis umzusetzen. Dies ist der einzige Weg kontinuierlich dabei zu bleiben, erfolgreich zu sein und andere an sich glauben zu lassen!Welche Fragen dieses Buch Ihnen beantworten wird:¢ Was sind die grundlegenden Techniken eines Projektmanagers, die sowohl in agilen als auch traditionellen Umgebungen angewendet werden koennen?¢ Wie koennen Sie die vielen verfuegbaren Projektmanagement-Methoden in Ihren eigenen Arbeitsprozess einbeziehen?¢ Wie koennen Sie kluge Fuehrung und bestimmte Verhaltensformen dazu nutzen, um Ihre Effektivitaet und Effizienz durch stetes Ergreifen der Initiative erheblich zu erhoehen (der Faktor 10)?¢ Wie koennen Sie traditionelle (Wasserfall-orientierte) Produktentwicklung mit agiler (Software) Entwicklung kombinieren?¢ Wie koennen Sie Unsicherheiten und Aenderungen fuer sich arbeiten lassen, anstatt gegen Sie?¢ Wie koennen Sie ein komplexes Projekt auf eine Art und Weise strukturieren, so dass es zu einer aufschlussreichen und deligierbaren Serie von Zwischenergebnissen wird?¢ Wie koennen Sie durch Nutzung der kritischen Parameter den wahren Projektstatus von Projektbeginn an messen?¢ Wie koennen Sie den richtigen Rahmen schaffen, in dem Teams von Wissensarbeitern selbst-organisiert arbeiten koennen?¢ Wie koennen Sie mit Hilfe des Heartbeats in jeder Situation Fortschritt, Lernbereitschafft, Kommunikation und Zielorientierung sicherstellen?¢ Wie koennen Sie die Kooperation mit Ihren Stakeholdern in eine echte Zusammenarbeit ueberfuehren - unabhaengig von den aeusseren Umstaenden?¢ Vor allem, wie koennen Sie sich bei all dem selbst treu bleiben?

Описание: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "Brilliant . . . a celebration of human ingenuity and] the purest example of real-science sci-fi for many years . . . Utterly compelling."--The Wall Street Journal

The inspiration for the major motion picture

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars.

Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there.

After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he's alive--and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive.

Chances are, though, he won't have time to starve to death. The damaged machinery, unforgiving environment, or plain-old "human error" are much more likely to kill him first.

But Mark isn't ready to give up yet. Drawing on his ingenuity, his engineering skills--and a relentless, dogged refusal to quit--he steadfastly confronts one seemingly insurmountable obstacle after the next. Will his resourcefulness be enough to overcome the impossible odds against him?

NAMED ONE OF PASTE'S BEST NOVELS OF THE DECADE

"A hugely entertaining novel that] reads like a rocket ship afire . . . Weir has fashioned in Mark Watney one of the most appealing, funny, and resourceful characters in recent fiction."--Chicago Tribune

"As gripping as they come . . . You'll be rooting for Watney the whole way, groaning at every setback and laughing at his pitchblack humor. Utterly nail-biting and memorable."--Financial Times
