Making Training Work: How to Achieve Bottom-Line Results and Lasting Success

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Are you getting far too little in return from your training investment? Do employees give glowing evaluations, and then fail to implement what they learned when they go back to work? There is probably a good reason for this: you are not focusing on the right customer. Berton Gunter, a leading trainer and consultant, presents an innovative total project-driven (TPD) training strategy to overcome this problem. TPD utilizes a unique eight-step process to help you identify and target training`s real customers-anyone who benefits because employees went through training. Getting these customers involved from the beginning will make your training programs successful and lasting. The eight-step process is based on a quality systems approach that applies proven quality principles and methods (such as quality function deployment) to the training process. Using it, the author shows you how to: Emphasize workplace application to aid learning and yield immediate, tangible benefits,… [detailed...]

Theodore L. Brown
Making Truth: METAPHOR IN SCIENCE

2003 y.
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
Description: In Making Truth: Metaphor in Science Theodore L. Brown argues that most laypeople, and many scientists, do not have a clear understanding of how metaphor relates to scientific thinking. With stunning clarity, and bridging the worlds of scientists and nonscientists, Brown demonstrates the presence and the power of metaphorical thought. To illustrate the roles of metaphor in science, Brown presents a series of studies of scientific systems. These range from the atom, historically one of the most important ideas in science, through models in chemistry and biology, including current `hot` topics such as protein folding, chaperone proteins, and global warming. The case studies in Making Truth illustrate the deeply metaphorical nature of scientific reasoning and communication. They provide the basis for far-reaching conclusions about science as an intellectual and social practice and about the nature of scientific truth. [detailed...]

Making Use: Scenario-Based Design of Human-Computer Interactions

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Difficult to learn and awkward to use, today`s information systems often change our activities in ways that we do not need or want. The problem lies in the software development process. In this book John Carroll shows how a pervasive but underused element of design practice, the scenario, can transform information systems design. Traditional textbook approaches manage the complexity of the design process via abstraction, treating design problems as if they were composites of puzzles. Scenario-based design uses concretization. A scenario is a concrete story about use. For example: `A person turned on a computer, the screen displayed a button labeled Start, the person used the mouse to select the button.` Scenarios are a vocabulary for coordinating thecentral tasks of system development--understanding people`s needs, envisioning new activities and technologies, designing effective systems and software, and drawing general lessons from systems as they are developed and used.

Making Welfare Work: Reconstructing Welfare for the Millennium

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The welfare system in the United Kingdom is broken. The number of claims has escalated and so, in consequence, have welfare expenditures. The social system does not encourage welfare recipients to become independent. Half the population of the United Kingdom lives in households drawing one of the major means-tested benefits. Research documents that means-tests paralyze self-help, discourage self-improvement, and tax honesty while at the same time rewarding claimants for being either inactive or deceitful. In Making Welfare Work, Frank Field challenges the current political orthodoxy, particularly its emphasis on the role of legislation alone in bringing about social improvement in a welfare state. Field argues that the impact legislation has on personal character is pivotal to human advance in a welfare state. Welfare reconstruction needs to address and channel the differing roles of self-interest, self-improvement, and altruism, which are among the great driving forces in human… [detailed...]

Making Whoopee: Words of Love for Lovers of Words

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description`Romance is everything,` said Gertrude Stein. And for those of us in love with words, the origins of love words have their own romance. So what is the etymology of the word romance? And for that matter, why is it that a kiss is a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh, and when two lovers woo they still say I love you? With wry wit and a wealth of word lore, Evan Morris, aka the Word Detective, answers these questions and traces the often surprising origins and evolution of the language of love--from flirtation to happily ever after, with stops along the way to examine betrayal, tryst, adultery, and all the rest of that hanky-panky. Organized alphabetically, sprinkled with quotations from lovers throughout history, Making Whoopee is brimming with entertaining information, from terms of endearment to the terms of the settlement. Readers will discover that when liaison first appeared in English it was as a cooking term (for egg yolks used to bind ingredients… [detailed...]

Making Work Pay: America After Welfare

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Leading experts and journalists offer an incisive, wide-ranging critique of welfare reform. In the four years since Congress acted to `end welfare as we know it,` millions of people have been forced out of government assistance programs into low-wage, dead-end jobs with few, if any, benefits. Making Work Pay brings together the foremost thinkers in the fields of social policy and public affairs to examine the effects of the new national prosperity on the working poor?to ask what happened to the second half of President Bill Clinton`s welfare reform, which was supposed to `make work pay.` As Robert Reich notes in his introduction, `like other ideas that have had the misfortune of becoming political slogans, `making work pay` went from obscurity to meaninglessness without any intervening period of coherence.` This book, which originated as a special double issue of The American Prospect magazine, brings coherence to the original notion, and updates it for a new… [detailed...]

Making Work Work

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Successful organizations consist of a group of enthusiastic, confident, positive people who work together on behalf of a future they have all committed themselves to. But in most organizations, the above observation of what a `successful organization` issimply does not exist. Why is this? Is it because people don?t want to be enthusiastic, confident, and positive? Would they rather be resigned, fearful, and negative? Do people not want to be part of a team? Would they rather be selfish and loners? Of course not. The reality is that we live in a paradigm that is not set up to have truly successful organizations. Which is why, in spite of hundreds of books on organizational effectiveness, most people still struggle trying to make work work. This book exposes the paradigm in which we live with such clarity and in such detail that leaders can finally and effectively take the steps necessary to create the organization they have only dreamed about heretofore.
