Book Description
Everything you need to know about the PRINCE2 qualification, whether your studying, have passed the exam and wondering what to do next, or simply wanting to start using the best of PRINCE2 straight away. This book is designed to give practical information and advice about the project management method PRINCE2. This is a lighter version of the official text and more accessible, providing only what you need to know. It includes a reference map of PRINCE2’s approach and themes - a unique feature that will provide a rich, graphical representation of PRINCE2’s key features. From the Author: According to the Office of Government Commerce, 20,000 organisations in 150 countries are using PRINCE2, and there’s an ever growing interest in becoming a qualified practitioner. So for those with an interest in project management it’s one of the hottest tickets around. I’ve written Brilliant PRINCE2 for those in search of a concise and accessible guide to this popular method. It covers all of the core material. So it’s ideal for those studying for a PRINCE2 exam, or looking for a handy reference source to back-up what’s been learned already. (You’ll notice that the book has been accredited as an official PRINCE2 product.) PRINCE2 is a big subject – the official manual weighs in at over 300 pages. Brilliant PRINCE2 helps to make sense of it all, by guiding you step-by-step from project kick-off, through delivery and on to closure. There are chapter-by-chapter summaries of all the key points – and topics are mapped back to the PRINCE2 manual. You’ll even find two diagrams that each manage to fit PRINCE2 onto a single page! Importantly, there’s also plenty of practical advice on applying PRINCE2 tools and techniques in the real world. This is based on many years of using the method to deliver all sorts of projects. You’ll find lots of useful tips, examples of best practice, and a good smattering of “war stories” to make the material easier to digest.

This Brilliant Darkness: A Book of Strangers

Author: Jeff Sharlet
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 1324003219
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 324

Book Description
“A luminous, moving and visual record of fleeting moments of connection.” —New York Times Book Review, Editors’ Choice A visionary work of radical empathy. Known for immersion journalism that is more immersed than most people are willing to go, and for a prose style that is somehow both fierce and soulful, Jeff Sharlet dives deep into the darkness around us and awaiting us. This work began when his father had a heart attack; two years later, Jeff, still in his forties, had a heart attack of his own. In the grip of writerly self-doubt, Jeff turned to images, taking snapshots and posting them on Instagram, writing short, true stories that bloomed into documentary. During those two years, he spent a lot of time on the road: meeting strangers working night shifts as he drove through the mountains to see his father; exploring the life and death of Charley Keunang, a once-aspiring actor shot by the police on LA’s Skid Row; documenting gay pride amidst the violent homophobia of Putin’s Russia; passing time with homeless teen addicts in Dublin; and accompanying a lonely woman, whose only friend was a houseplant, on shopping trips. Early readers have called this book “incantatory,” the voice “prophetic,” in “James Agee’s tradition of looking at the reality of American lives.” Defined by insomnia and late-night driving and the companionship of other darkness-dwellers—night bakers and last-call drinkers, frightened people and frightening people, the homeless, the lost (or merely disoriented), and other people on the margins—This Brilliant Darkness erases the boundaries between author, subject, and reader to ask: how do people live with suffering?

Networking In A Week

Publisher: Teach Yourself
ISBN: 1444159690
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 110

Book Description
Networking just got easier Networking is a word that is firmly embedded in our vocabulary. It is not unusual to hear the word used to describe a range of activities and behaviours. The activities of a successful networker are often focussed on outcomes. Our research and observations suggest that successful networkers build their networks by developing close relationships with work colleagues, professional communities and associations and virtually, through social and professional networking sites, referrals and references from friends or colleagues. The behaviours of a successful networker are often social. Successful networkers may be considered to be gregarious; when you observe them, it becomes clear they build relationships through empathic connections, being respectful, purposeful and reciprocal relationships that are founded on principles such as 'do as you would be done by'. Individuals respond to the word network in different ways. However you respond to the word, networks can make the difference for you personally and professionally. Networking In A Week is designed to help you understand, benefit from and develop your network. Each of the seven chapters in Networking In A Week covers a different aspect: - Sunday: Networks and networking - Monday: Personal networks - Tuesday: Organizational networks - Wednesday: Professional networks - Thursday: Networking for career development - Friday: Social networking - Saturday: Simple steps to networking success
