Gary Klein - Böcker

'No one has taught me more about the complexities and mysteries of human decision-making' Malcolm Gladwell'Gary Klein is a living example of how useful applied psychology can be when it is done well' Daniel KahnemanInsight is everything. At its most profound, it can change the world. At its simplest, it can solve everyday problems. It can be used to build businesses, solve crimes, progress science and make many aspects of our lives quicker, easier, bigger or better. Yet remarkably we often unwittingly build barriers to seeing what is in front of us. Both as individuals and organisations we can hold on to flawed beliefs and conform to established processes that can interfere with our perceptions. Having clear insight can transform the way in which we understand things, the decisions we make and the actions we take.In this groundbreaking study, renowned cognitive psychologist Gary Klein uses an eclectic miscellany of real-life stories to bring to life the process of insight. He demonstrates the five key strategies for spotting connections and contractions to ensure you too can see what others don't.

If you aren't using the term naturalistic decision making, or NDM, you soon will be. Even as a very young field, NDM has already had far-reaching applications in areas as diverse as management, aviation, health care, nuclear power, military command and control, corporate teamwork, and manufacturing.Put simply, NDM is the way people use their experience to make decisions in the context of a job or task. Of particular interest to NDM researchers are the effects of high-stake consequences, shifting goals, incomplete information, time pressure, uncertainty, and other conditions that are present in most of today's work places and that add to the complexity of decision making. Applications of NDM research findings target decision aids and training that help people in their decision-making processes. This book reports the findings of top NDM researchers, as well as many of their current applications. In addition, the book offers a historical perspective on the emergence of this new paradigm, describes recent theoretical and methodological advancements, and points to future developments. It was written for people interested in decision making research and applications relative to a diverse array of work settings and products such as human-computer interfaces, decision support systems, individual and team training, product designs, and organizational development and planning.

Insights,like Darwin's understanding of the way evolution actually works, and Watson and Crick's breakthrough discoveries about the structure of DNA,can change the world. We also need insights into the everyday things that frustrate and confuse us so that we can more effectively solve problems and get things done. Yet we know very little about when, why, or how insights are formed,or what blocks them. In Seeing What Others Don't , renowned cognitive psychologist Gary Klein unravels the mystery.Klein is a keen observer of people in their natural settings,scientists, businesspeople, firefighters, police officers, soldiers, family members, friends, himself,and uses a marvellous variety of stories to illuminate his research into what insights are and how they happen. What, for example, enabled Harry Markopolos to put the finger on Bernie Madoff? How did Dr. Michael Gottlieb make the connections between different patients that allowed him to publish the first announcement of the AIDS epidemic? What did Admiral Yamamoto see (and what did the Americans miss) in a 1940 British attack on the Italian fleet that enabled him to develop the strategy of attack at Pearl Harbor? How did a smokejumper" see that setting another fire would save his life, while those who ignored his insight perished? How did Martin Chalfie come up with a million-dollar idea (and a Nobel Prize) for a natural flashlight that enabled researchers to look inside living organisms to watch biological processes in action?Klein also dissects impediments to insight, such as when organizations claim to value employee creativity and to encourage breakthroughs but in reality block disruptive ideas and prioritize avoidance of mistakes. Or when information technology systems are dumb by design" and block potential discoveries. Both scientifically sophisticated and fun to read, Seeing What Others Don't shows that insight is not just a eureka!" moment but a whole new way of understanding.

Digital transformation is essential for modern enterprises striving to remain competitive in today's fast-evolving markets. Achieving transformation requires more than technology; it demands coordinated changes to business processes, models, and culture. Program management is the organizational backbone that successfully drives digital transformation by integrating multiple initiatives under one cohesive strategy.Through a structured examination of the program management lifecycle phases, Organizational Digital Transformation provides practical tools, methodologies, and actionable steps. Key tools and processes, such as program vision statements, blueprints, and benefits realization management, are explored in depth. Insights are brought to life through a detailed case example illustrating how to apply program management concepts effectively in practice.

Projects are a part of everyday life in an organization. Tools and procedures for project management are well understood and applied. However, the management of projects by an organization for substantial transformation is less certain in both practice and study. An awareness of how to manage increasingly complex projects, and collections of projects, to achieve the benefits of organizational transformation becomes ever more crucial in the implementation of new strategies.This book goes beyond a simple review of tools and techniques common in most publications of project management. We illustrate how the traditional practice of project management advances to handle the more complex problems inherent to strategic organizational transformation. The linkages among projects, operations, and the foundations of an organization provide a perspective of how an organization might pursue the difficult changes required of comprehensive transformation. The fashion in which the project world interacts with the executive world through successive layers of project management principles is prelude to operational benefits realization.

The papers were organized in the following topical sections: Data Security, Big Data and Data Science, Artificial Intelligence, ICT Project Management, Applications, Social Media, Smart Infrastructures.

This book constitutes revised papers from the five workshops which were held during June 2020 at the 23rd International Conference on Business Information Systems, BIS 2020. The conference was planned to take place in Colorado Springs, CO, USA. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic it changed to a virtual format.   There was a total of 54 submissions to all workshops of which 26 papers were accepted for publication.   The workshops included in this volume are: BITA 2020: 11th Workshop on Business and IT Alignment BSCT 2020: 3rd Workshop on Blockchain and Smart Contract Technologies DigEX 2020: 2nd International Workshop on transforming the Digital Customer Experience iCRM 2020: 5th International Workshop on Intelligent Data Analysis in Integrated Social CRM QOD 2020: 3rd Workshop on Quality of Open Data
