Baker takes on eight dysfunctional people management practices originating from the scientific management and offers practical solutions for changing these practices and increasing organizational agility. Agile is the new black. Every business now has to be adaptive, nimble and ready to pivot – managers have to be comfortable with ambiguity and constantly ready for change. And yet… While agility is regarded as essential for competitive advantage, most organizations are still unthinkingly applying people management practices, rooted in Frederick Taylor’s scientific management philosophy of the early 20th century, designed to ensure consistency and efficiency on production lines but which actively prevent the sort of creativity and flexibility needed in the modern workplace. 100 years of scientific management has led to the creation of eight performance myths. Myths that impede the agility necessary to compete in the age of the knowledge worker but which are so instinctively embedded in management psyche that they go unchallenged despite the fact that the changing world of work has rendered them dysfunctional and counterproductive. Through case studies and examples Baker demonstrates how the right workplace culture for promoting and applying agile decision-making consists of eight values shared by employer and employee – values that are polar opposite of the values and assumptions of traditional management styles. A new psychological contract that enables the collaborative working relationship necessary for agility to flourish.

Make your Swift apps agile and sound with this short step by step guide. You'll learn about unit testing, mocking and continuous integration and how to get these key ingredients running in your Swift projects. This book also looks at how to write your Swift apps using test driven development (TDD). Agile practices have made major inroads in iOS development, however it’s very unusual to see something as basic as unit testing on a Swift application. Done correctly, Agile development results in a significant increase in development efficiency and a reduction in the number of defects. Apple has released unit testing and code coverage frameworks for Swift development in XCode. Up until now getting unit testing up and running in Swift was not for the faint-hearted. Thankfully now, there is no excuse other than a lack of information on where to get started. iOS developers are faced with their own set of problems such as tightly coupled code, fragmentation, immature testing tools all of which can be solved using existing Agile tools and techniques. Swift Programming Using Agile Tools and Techniques is your solution to handling these tasks. What You Will Learn Write unit tests in Swift Write an application using test driven development Examine GUI testing, refactoring, and mocking frameworks Set up and configure a continuous integration server Measure code coverage Who This Book Is For Swift developers and would be mobile app testers will benefit from the guidance in this book.

In diesem Buch hinterfragt Andrea Weichand die bestehenden Reporting-Routinen. Die manuelle Arbeit im bekannten Tabellenkalkulationsprogramm Excel hat sich nicht nur etabliert, sie nimmt auch weiterhin zu. Dies ist ein großes Problem für die Innovations- und Zukunftsfähigkeit so mancher Controlling-, Sales-, oder Marketingabteilungen. Wie datenkompetent ist ein Unternehmen, wenn ein Großteil der Datenarbeit in Excel zurechtgeschustert wird? Wie schafft man es im Berufsalltag, Daten effizient und mit hoher Qualität in passende Datenprodukte zu bringen? Welche Rolle spielt die Pivot-Tabelle? Weichand beschreibt einen neuen Weg zu mehr Datenkompetenz und erklärt, warum die Prinzipien Kreativität, Strategie und Agilität so wertvoll dabei sind. Ihr Ziel ist es, all die Angestellten, die sich Tag für Tag mit ihren anstrengenden und monströsen Excel-Dateien quälen, zu ermutigen, die Datenprozesse (mit und ohne Excel) zu automatisieren, die eigene Datenkompetenz weiterzuentwickeln und eine kreative, zukunftsfähige Perspektive für agile Datenarbeit einzunehmen.
