Building on the importance of place sensory inquiry embodiment and rhythm within walking research this book offers four new concepts for walking methodologies that are accountable to an ethics and politics of the more-than-human: Land and geos affect transmaterial and movement. The book carefully considers the more-than-human dimensions of walking methodologies by engaging with feminist new materialisms posthumanisms affect theory trans and queer theory Indigenous theories and critical race and disability scholarship. These more-than-human theories rub frictionally against the history of walking scholarship and offer crucial insights into the potential of walking as a qualitative research methodology in a more-than-human world.

Managing Business Projects The Essentials

Managing Business Projects The Essentials

Managing Business Projects: The Essentials differs from many other project management textbooks. Foremost it is about business projects as opposed to construction or engineering projects. Although many techniques like schedule management apply to both they are usually applied differently. As its title conveys the book explains the essential techniques and perspectives needed for business projects to be successful. The focus is on small- and medium-sized projects up to $20 million but often below $1 million. Some literature favors large and mega-projects but for every mega-project there are many thousands of smaller projects that are vital to the organization and could involve considerable complexity and risk. Nevertheless the techniques outlined here also apply to mega-projects and their many subprojects; they even apply to some aspects of construction or engineering projects. This book does not aim to cover all project management techniques. In real life there is simply no time for sophisticated ‘should-dos. ' Rather it covers the essentials that apply to almost all business projects; these are unlikely to change in the future even as technology and methodologies advance. The driving idea which is stated repeatedly is to do the essentials and to do them consistently and well. Strong emphasis is placed on things that happen before around and after the project itself. So while the basic disciplines like engaging with stakeholders managing scope schedules costs risks issues changes and communication are thoroughly explained other important aspects are covered. These include: governance of a project and of a portfolio of projects project selection with its financial and non-financial aspects effective use of the business case through to benefits realization procurement outsourcing and partnership and also the agile mindset that is valuable beyond Agile projects. Besides project managers and sponsors this book is intended for people who are working in business or government at any level or for MBA students. It offers perspectives that enable them to learn more from their everyday experience. It is not aimed at undergraduate students although many would benefit from the contents. | Managing Business Projects The Essentials
