Strategic Security: Forward Thinking for Successful Executives
by Jean PeroisStrategic Security will help security managers, and those aspiring to the position, to think strategically about their job, the culture of their workplace, and the nature of security planning and implementation. Security professionals tend to focus on the immediate (the urgent) rather than the important and essential—too often serving as "firefighters" rather than strategists. This book will help professionals consider their roles, and structure their tasks through a strategic approach without neglecting their career objectives. Few security management books for professionals in the field focus on corporate or industrial security from a strategic perspective. Books on the market normally provide "recipes," methods or guidelines to develop, plans, policies or procedures. However, many do so without taking into account the personal element that is supposed to apply these methods. In this book, the authors helps readers to consider their own career development in parallel with establishing their organisation security programme. This is fundamental to becoming, and serving as, a quality, effective manager. The element of considering career objectives as part-and-parcel to this is both unique to only this book and vital for long-term career success. The author delineates what makes strategic thinking different in a corporate and security environment. While strategy is crucial in the running of a company, the traditional attitude towards security is that it has to fix issues quickly and at low cost. This is an attitude that no other department would tolerate, but because of its image, security departments sometimes have major issues with buy-in and from top-management. The book covers the necessary level of strategic thinking to put their ideas into practice. Once this is achieved, the strategic process is explained, including the need to build the different steps into this process—and into the overarching business goals of the organisation—will be demonstrated. The book provides numerous hand-on examples of how to formulate and execute the strategic master plan for the organization. The authors draws on his extensive experience and successes to serve as a valuable resource to all security professionals looking to advance their careers in the field.

Strategic Software Quality Management: How to Incorporate Sustainable Continuous Improvement Practices
by Mahsa Fidanboy Cemalettin Öcal FidanboyThis book introduces strategic management tools and techniques appropriate for use in software quality management. There has been a gap between strategic management and software quality, and the solutions for solving the problems and improving the software quality usually come from the experience of IT experts: the managerial experience. This book helps people interested in software quality to go beyond the IT technical issues and integrate strategic management tools with their technical knowledge to become more prepared for the future, develop long-term plans for solutions and improvements, take more strategic decisions even when compared with the competitors, and finally, reach sustainable continuous improvements.This book, by bridging software quality management and strategic management, can be used by software quality practitioners for effective results. The software development process is usually studied with regards to its functional aspects and the attempts to improve the quality and performance are mainly concentrated on the technical side. The developers, testers, or engineers search for solutions mostly directed toward a local problem specific to a unit, department, or code. What is often missing is grasping the big image of the problem: the managerial aspect. Even if all the technical staff are doing their tasks as they were planned, there is a vital need for identifying the bottlenecks and the points in need of improvements, alterations, and exclusions, together with tracking the progress and coming up with future strategies. This makes the software quality management activities intertwined with the strategic management concepts where strategic management enhances the quality management with its tools and techniques, and, in return, the software quality management provides the strategic management with insights on the technical issues, resulting in symbiosis. The highly competitive nature of the IT world makes it inevitable to take strategic tools and techniques into account and infuse them into the technical practices of software quality management.This book encompasses the following chapters: analyzing the current situation, identifying the improvement areas, determining the strategies, tracking the progress, and achieving a sustainable improvement.
Strategic Spatial Planning Support System for Sustainable Development: Agent-Based Modelling and Simulation (Advances in Geographic Information Science)
by Yan Ma Zhenjiang ShenThis book introduces a planning support system called Strategic Spatial Plan Support System (SSP-SS) to visualize population growth and predict energy demand, land use, and waste discharge resulting from urbanization.

Simulations are created based on these policy outcome assessments, taking into account the influences of energy and resource consumption on sustainable development in urban environments. The book is geared towards researchers, universities, and urban policy makers.The book begins by presenting a framework of urban growth simulation, and introducing SSP-SS. Then, household lifecycle and relocation models are employed for simulating policy impacts on urbanization, and investigating the impacts of spatial strategic planning. Several projects are assessed using agent-based modeling including shopping centre construction, day-care service for aging populations, and shelter accommodation capacities for earthquakes and other disasters. The final chapters discuss water and energy management, the environmental impacts of demand and consumption, and future recommendations for sustainable development and policy implementation.Introduces Strategic Spatial Plan Support System (SSP-SS) to visualize population growth and predict energy demand, land use, and waste discharge resulting from urbanization.Analyzes policy effects on urban areas during stages of growth and decline.Discusses the influences of water and gas consumption on environmental issues in urban areas for sustainable development.

Strategies in E-Business
by Ignacio Gil-Pechuán Daniel Palacios-Marqués Marta Peris Peris-Ortiz Eduardo Vendrell Cesar Ferri-RamirezIn this volume, the authors apply insights from a variety of perspectives to explore the alignment among strategy, organization design, process and human resource management, and e-business practices on developing successful social networking programs--with particular regard to applying such initiatives against the backdrop of the global financial crisis and challenges to traditional business models. Showcasing in-depth case studies, the authors present emerging approaches to analyze the impact of investment in social networking sites, aligning internal resources, and measuring effects on positioning, branding, and new business creation. The fact that a growing proportion of the world population has a relationship with social networking sites could prove very valuable for companies. The question is whether this represents a business opportunity, whether companies know how to make the most of it and if they will make the necessary efforts to adapt to these new platforms. In the modern world, social networking sites have enormous potential for large as well as small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs); most companies are aware of the need for a presence on social networking sites, but at present their e-business strategies are part of their medium and long-term strategic planning and only a small percentage have been put into practice. In short, this book attempts to answer the following questions: Is there a business opportunity for companies on social networking sites? Do they know how to make the most of it? Are they willing to make the necessary effort to adapt? Can e-business strategies contribute to company creation and the success of already existing businesses? And if so, how?

Aus Organisationssicht verändern sich damit unter anderem Entstehung und Pflege von Reputation oder das Management von Stakeholderbeziehungen. Zehn Jahre nach Beginn der Fachdiskussion zu PR und sozialen Medien gibt dieser Band auf Basis aktueller Untersuchungen Einblick in die Praxis und in aktuelle Herausforderungen der Organisationskommunikation im Internet.

Strategy Analytics for Business Resilience Theories and Practices (Information Systems Engineering and Management #33)
