ASIN: 0750663677

Book Description

Organization Design looks at how you need to change the ways your organization does things in order to increase productivity, performance, and profit. Providing the knowledge and method to handle the kind of recurring organisational change that all businesses face, those which do not involve transforming the entire enterprise but which necessitate significant change at the business unit, divisional, functional, facility or local levels. The problem lies in knowing what needs to change and how to change it. Taking the organisation as a designed system, it describes four major elements of organizations: the work - the basic tasks to be done by the organisation and its parts, the people - characteristics of individuals in the organization, formal organization - structures eg the organisation hierarchy, processes, and methods that are formally created to get individuals to perform tasks, informal organization - emerging arrangements including variations to the norm, processes, and relationships, commonly described as the culture or 'the way we do things round here'. The way these four elements relate, combine and interact affects productivity, performance and profit. Most books on this subject target a wide management audience rather than HR, this is specifically written for HR practitioners and line managers working together to achieve the goal. It clarifies why and how organisations need to be in a state of readiness to design or redesign and emphasises that people as well as business processes must be part of design considerations.

* Demonstrates how HR practitioners can work across the organization to change the shape and structure in order to improve performance
* Provides tools and techniques that HR professionals need to fulfil their emerging role as business partners
* A well-structured approach which provides a tested framework adaptable to a variety of organizational situations

Excellent resource for new and experienced practitioners of organization development.......2006-12-01

Naomi Stanford has developed a useful guide for practitioners engaged in navigating the complexities of designing organizations. Her practical advice in the form of easy-to-understand narrative and checklists provides the reader with tools they can readily apply. This is a highly recommended resource for the seasoned practitioner or those just getting involved in the field of organization development.

The Consummate Design Guidebook.......2006-08-29

Whether you are an HR or OD professional (or a little of both), this book will become a valuable resource to you. It is filled with practical, thorough, and easy to follow methods for any practitioner involved in organization change projects. Naomi guides the reader through various stages of a change plan, explaining what needs to be done, how to do it, how to measure what you did, and how you are doing. It is this last part that I find exceptionally useful. Naomi's advice will keep you grounded in the work you are doing and instill the confidence you will need in approaching highly complex issues. I refer to this book often in my consulting practice and learn something new each time I pick it up.

Avoid Missteps in Organization Design.......2006-04-30

In today's economy, organizations are in constant flux and are often redesigned in response to new challenges. Organization Design: The Collaborative Approach provides practical tools and powerful insights on how to create new organization structures for high performance while winning support and building on the expertise of executives, managers, and employees. The book provides many checklists and models that aid in identifying and reducing common mistakes which often lead to significant design or implementation failures. A first rate book!

Excellent practical guide.......2006-02-09

This is an excellent practical guide. It combines a genuinely systemic understanding of the design process with clear, comprehensive and extremely well-organized advice on every aspect of design and implementation. There is a wealth checklists and tools, all carefully framed within explanation of the place of each in the whole. Each chapter ends with a self-check, a list of do's and dont's and a 'bare bones' summary.
The book is written primarily for HR practitioners but will be equally valuable for line managers and for consultants.

Book Description

Relational Mechanics is a new mechanics that replaces Einstein's theories of relativity. It implements Mach's principle quantitatively based on Weber's relational law and the principle of dynamical equilibrium. It explains Newton's bucket experiment as due to gravitational interaction between the water and the distant universe when in relative rotation. The book is intended for physicists, engineers, mathematicians, historians, philosophers of science and students.

Relational Mechanics - Andre Assis.......2005-01-11

I sought out this book immediately on reading the following abstract of a paper entitled The Principle of Physical Proportions

ABSTRACT. We propose the principle of physical proportions, according
to which all laws of physics can depend only on the ratio of
known quantities of the same type. An alternative formulation is that
no dimensional constants should appear in the laws of physics; or that
all "constants" of physics (like the universal constant of gravitation,
light velocity in vacuum, Planck's constant, Boltzmann's constant etc.)
must depend on cosmological or microscopic properties of the universe.
With this generalization of Mach's principle we advocate doing away
with all absolute quantities in physics. We present examples of laws
satisfying this principle and of others which do not. These last examples
suggest that the connected theories leading to these laws must be
incomplete. We present applications of this principle in some fundamental
equations of physics.

Goodness, he's seen it too I thought. No mealy mouthed beating about the bush. He takes no prisoners but declares royal abundance. Moreover, this is no crackpot or crank as you might imagine but someone who has a large corpus of perfectly conventional publications, as you will discover if, like me, you bother to do an elementary google search.

Mind you - this is not a book for students - unless they are unafraid of losing their faith.

But for anyone who appreciates only too well the cracks and fissures the have been steadily growing wider in the fabric of physics, for anyone who has done hands on research and had the ineffable experience of digging up jewels that the "dark unfathomed caves of ocean bear" [like the power laws for water vapour for example], for them, this book is a treasure beyond rubies.

For open-minded Science lovers, only! Not for followers..........2003-10-28

This masterpiece summarizes Dr. Andre Assis' studies of the basis of two main Mechanics theories in Physics from the last millennium: Classical Mechanics, founded by Sir Isaac Newton, and Relativity Mecahnics (both, Special and General), founded by Albert Einstein.

All the criticisms presented by Ernst Mach to the Newton's theory, which Einstein tried to overcome in his theories but failed to do so, are revised and explained in details.

Beyond a clear historical perspective of the problems faced by these two main theories, Dr. Assis presents his own theory of Mechanics (Relational), one that suceeds in implementing the Mach's Principle.

After reading this book, with an open-minded attitude, it will be difficult to support the Mecahnics theories currently accepted by the establishment!

The seven errors game.......2000-02-04

This book has two parts, the first concerning Classical Mechanics and Mach's ideas. The second criticizes relativity and introduces an alternative theory ("relational mechanics") of the author. To the first one I rate 5 stars, to the second I rate zero stars so actually the 3 stars above represents 2.5.
The first part of this book is a time machine: You can breath the construction of Mechanics since Newton until Mach. It sends you to exactly 100 years ago, 1904, before Einstein's special relativity, so you can understantd (with the eyes of the epoch) what problems Classical Mechanics was presenting to the physicists of the time. It is a really beautiful exposition of the ideas and critics to Classical Mechanics at that moment, broadly grouped under Mach's name. Although Mach had good points about what was wrong with classical mechanics, he proposed no theory to substitute the Newtonian one. He gave just general ideas. One can say that the theory proposed by the author in the second part of the book is a candidate which "implements" (at least in the particular interpretation of Mach's ideas adopted by the author) a theory that Mr. Mach would find better.
But if Mach had time to live until nowadays he would be the first to discard this proposed theory, just because it can not explain the most simple data we have (e.g, clock's delay in gravitational fields, muons life-time in atmosphere, redshift, etc, etc). So now I explain the zero star I gave to the second part: it's not because I like or dislike his theory, but because the author's presentation in this part of the book is not honest. He tries to criticize Special and General relativity, but the arguments just show how much he does not understand of the theory. To find the error in his arguments can be a good "seven errors game" to a physics student, e.g., the author misunderstanding of standard relativity topics (like the "twin paradox" for example). The author adopts a particular interpretation of Mach ideas, and when he verifies that his particular interpretation is not implemented in General Relativity, his conclusion is that Einstein theory is wrong. In another words, the position presented in the book is that "If the theory does not fulfill my philosophical prejudices, it's wrong.".
It is not a question of to be "open minded" or "follower". It is just a question of comparison of theory and experiments. In this regard, relational mechanics is wrong: It does not explain nature as we see it by the experiments. It's simple. No big deal here about conspirations, followers or discriminated geniuses.
In the end of the day, this is a instigating book. It makes you think, even when it is wrong.

This book was ok. The salon has so much drama and fighting over this one guy and after a while it gets a little old but that real life issues.

This book was ok. Through out the whole thing all of the workers at the salon are just fighting over this one guy and after a while it gets old and you lose whatever focus you had for the book ar first. Better sub-plots less Involving this guy would have enhanced the book

This was a pretty good book. I read the 1st 6 pages thanks to Amazon.com and bought it because of what I read and the explosive beginning. But the book fell down and let me down a little. I'd really like to read about careers that Black women have other than being hair stylists.
