Product Description:
Strategic management of an organization's activities can be quite complex. Combine this with the overwhelming speed in which global markets are changing and sustainable competitive advantage is a goal that can seem insurmountable. This unique resource presents a new look at how the puzzle pieces of corporate dynamics management can fit together to ensure strategic designs are actionable. Written by a recognized industry expert, this practical book shows professionals how to:
--Integrate such strategic process management approaches as Six Sigma, Kaizen, ITIL, GSCF, and Critical Chain to support your Basel II, HIPAA, SarbOx or Turnbull operational risk compliance efforts.
--Leverage such modern strategic design approaches as value innovation, real options analysis, game theory, Hoshin Kanri and shape-adapt analysis to architect such automated performance management technologies as those provided by business intelligence engines, data warehouses, service oriented architectures (SOAs) and enterprise application integration (EAI) platforms.
--Build on the enterprise project portfolio management best practices offered by the British Office of Government Commerce (OGC) and the Project Management Institute (PMI) to support such performance measurement frameworks as the Balanced Scorecard, the Performance Pyramid, ENAPS and the Performance Prism.
--Use such new tools as a virtual strategic management office, an enterprise execution maturity model and an integrated activity management roll-out approach to accommodate organizations of all sizes.
--Use simple processes, common structures, and open-book organizational support approaches to effectively link performance management, process management, project portfolio management and risk management objectives.
Summary: Extremely well-researched
Rating: 5
Mr. Bonham has meticulously researched this, his latest book. Each chapter is filled with stimulating ideas and concepts that both newcomers and experts alike will find enlightening. I also found the organizations he has chosen to illustrate his findings very helpful and varied, examples including Harrah's, Amazon, and a Denver hospital. I would recommend this book to all those striving to pursue actionable strategies.
Summary: Outstanding Resource for Managers Looking to Turn Business Strategies into Successful Action
Rating: 5
In his new book, Actionable Strategies . . ., Stephen Bonham has filled a void that has been missing in the literature of management. Namely, Mr. Bonham draws linkages between the many disparate approaches to performance, process, project, and risk management, and he provides insights into how these various management approaches inter-relate to each other. Mr. Bonham's cataloging and description of the many approaches to performance, process, project, and risk management is a useful reference. He supplements that information with his even more valuable knowledge of methods to integrate approaches to the various facets of strategic management, and how to ensure that strategies become actions that can be measured for performance, effectiveness, risk, and value. Mr. Bonham's book is a "must read" for any manager who is looking to develop business strategies that can be implemented and measured for success.
