You may have a great idea for a project, but without planning, your project will remain just that — an idea. Simply put, planning is the critical step to take a project from an intangible theory to a tangible result. Project planning is part of project management, which relates to the use of schedules such as Gantt charts to plan and subsequently report progress within the project environment. Project planning can be done manually or by the use of project management software.

Introduction You have probably been part of an organization or team activity that did not appear to have direction, purpose, or goals. This kind of experience sometimes produces frustration, especially in organizations that are supposed to have a purpose, simply because people want to know that they are part of something larger than themselves and that they can make a difference. Sometimes organizations have goals, but it seems like only top management knows what they are. This chapter will explore the value of having organizational and project goals and sharing them with the people charged with realizing them. This chapter follows up on earlier chapters that dealt with the field of project management, project phases in the cycle, and organizational design. The chapter will address how projects are started, how they are aligned with the organization’s goals, and how individual project goals and objectives are set to serve customers. Once a project is selected and initiated in phase 1, phase 2 involves defining the project in a project plan and preparing the project framework for execution. The next five chapters will address the highlights and critical activities and tools used in this phase.

The opportunity, recommendation, timeline, and cost are provided in this report. Opportunity In the absence of a national “smart” grid, which would increase “pricing transparency, as well as enable a host of consumer-producer interactive transactions” (Contreras, 2012, p. 645), we here at Sunco, as producers of renewable energy, have run into the problem of getting our services to the customers who demand them. Similarly, our consumers who generate renewable energy on-site from solar panels and wind turbines have also run into the problem of permits, regulations, and service charges that vary from state to state and utility to utility (Ryor, 2014). Currently, the main challenge is convincing local utilities of the economic viability of renewable energy, and since the energy supplied is undifferentiated, the general customer base is unaware that other options exist. Solution Since we, as a company, lack the necessary knowledge and authority to enable our services to be accessed and expedited in a way that would make them economically feasible in the existing system, we seek to engage in a partnership with utilities and regulators arou ...

T E C H N O L O G Y Budgeting best practices Controlling medical equipment spending for the life of a project BY TERRY ESQUIBELL AND KELLY SPIVEY Key to the success of a health care construction project is a vetted and approved medical equipm ent budget. This lays the foundation for the application of practices that m ay not only save the facility money on medical equipm ent, but on the entire project cost. This requires careful consideration of a number of important variables such as the sophistication of the equipment being specified, the accuracy of cost estimates, the needs and desires of the various stakeholders and the frequency of change orders, to name a few. Successful professionals will take a for mal approach to ensuring that these and other concerns are properly addressed. Budget development Historically, medical equipment budgets for health care construction projects were determined as a percentage of project ed constmction cost. The industry now recognizes that two hospitals with the same square footage can offer completely different services, resulting in significant differences in the cost for owner-furnished medical equipment. A more accurate method than basing a budget on square footage is basing it on a space program. But, even then, the budget may vary significantly, depending on a variety of factors. A fundamental concept in developing the medical equipment budget is the A large teaching facility's vision may include specialized technology such as PET, while a critical access hospital's vision may focus more on procedure volume. budget-setter's definition of medical equip ment — not just categories of devices but whether factors such as relocation costs, equipment upgrades, leases, transition rentals, information technology (IT) inte grations and ancillary expenses (Le., elec tronic health record interoperability) will be part of the medical equipment budget. Additionally, the project delivery method (i.e., design-build, integrated project delivery or design-bid-build) may impact the procurement process and the final cost of medical equipment. On a design-build project, for instance, medical equipment that typically is considered owner-furnished may be furnished by the contractor. The construction schedule also can impact the cost of medical equipment. For example, in renovation or expansion proj ects, phasing can impact the warehousing requirements, equipment discounting and the practicality of relocating existing equip ment versus purchasing new equipment. After all these issues are considered, the health care organization will deter mine whether the budget should include additional costs such as tax, freight, inflation, group purchasing organization (GPO) discounting, insurance for stored equipment, warehousing costs, instal lation, transition planning and various contingencies. 22 // JA N U A R Y 2 0 1 5 w w w .

Running head: PROJECT SCOPE AND CHARTER 1 PROJECT SCOPE AND CHARTER 3 Project Scope and Charter Yahima Montero Chamberlain University Project Scope and Charter In current healthcare settings, it is in the best interest of hospitals to have project management as the central focus and input to high performance. Project management solves unforeseen issues that may undermine the delivery of services since it is a performance road map that demands significant supervision, an organization, and strategy. The paper outlines the scope and charter's critical concepts for running the entire project using the available approaches and resources. Scope Statement A project requires a well-written scope statement that illustrates the whole thing. Aspects such as deliverables and their characteristics; and stakeholders of interests get considered by the scope. Most significantly, objectives and goals that measure the success form an integral part of the project scope. Project managers may write the scope or assign the role to one of the team members. He closely works together with their teams to have a full understanding of the scope value. This understanding involves assembling of viable techniques, tools, and processes for use (Guanci, 2019). Non-essential activities do not support the scope and need not be performed to ensure the project is completed behind schedule and deliver customer expectations. Signatures of the project manager and sponsor in the scope indicate an agreement for what is included in the plan in the course of the project execution Project Charter Any successful project must have a charter. Charter states the objectives, the process of project execution, and identifies the project's stakeholders. It forms the most critical ingredient in project planning as it is used in the entire lifecycle of the project. Summarily, project charter documents: reasons for the project, objectives and challenges of the project, identified risks, the significance of the project, overview of the budget, and key stakeholders. A well-created charter is the one that project goals and objectives are well understood, the project organization is defined, the implementation plan is ready, and likely challenges listed (Putlitz, 2019). So, the charter is an integral part of the project management process and get approved by a steering committee comprising of stakeholders or by leadership. Conclusion Both project scope and charter define the chances of successful project management process and implementation. The two aspects are the project manager's blueprint and provide the necessary tools and resources for the execution. So, a wrongly-written scope or charter cannot identify some of the unforeseen risks that are likely to sabotage the achievement of the project's main objectives and overall purpose, leading to change.

IT Project Management In this course, we only introduce project management, but the main concepts are covered. In order to be a good project manager, you should specialize in this area. Project management certificates are offered by universities such as UMUC, and there is at least one recognized certification authority—the Project Management Institute (PMI). PMI evaluates both your experience as well as your knowledge before a certification is awarded. So, you can see that project management cannot really be learned from a book or a class, but from those combined with experience in the "real world." A couple of definitions with which you should be familiar are: • project: a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product, service, or result • project management: the application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to project activities to meet project requirements What is the role of a project manager? Is it different for an IT project manager? A project manager must control the four key variables associated with any project: time (schedule), resources (human and financial), scope of work, and quality. The project manager leads the development of a project plan that takes all of these into consideration. Frequently, trade-offs are required. For instance, the budget may be limited, which restricts the scope of the work and perhaps how many people can work on the project. Or, the project is needed within a certain time frame, which may drive up the costs, since more people would have to be hired to complete the project on time. When any one of the four variables changes, there is an impact on at least one (and often more than one) other variable. A strong project manager pays attention to the project plan and the progress of the project against the plan, and manages the variables appropriately to ensure successful completion of the project. Successful completion is accomplished if the project is delivered on time, stays within the allocated budget, performs the required functions, and does so correctly. This role is the same for any project manager, including an IT project manager. 1 The four variables are interdependent. You cannot change one without affecting the others. For example,  Decreasing a project's time frame means either increasing the cost of the project or decreasing the scope of the project to meet the new deadline.  Increasing a project's scope means either increasing the project's time frame or increasing the project's cost—or both— to meet the increased scope changes.  Decreasing a project's resources (either people or money) will necessitate a reevaluation of the scope and/or the quality. The scope may need to be reduced to avoid decreasing the quality, or if the scope must remain unchanged, quality will suffer.  Increasing a project's quality requirements will require more time and money to incorporate more perfectio.

Attachment: Programs and Families Working Together Learning Objectives After reading this chapter, you should be able to: ▸▸ Discuss the history of attachment theory and be able to define attachment. ▸▸ Recognize the importance of developing a secure attachment in infants and young children. ▸▸ Describe the four types of attachment and typical behaviors associated with each. ▸▸ Differentiate among the different kinds of temperaments and explain how a child’s temperament can affect the development of attachment. ▸▸ Explain how parents can foster a child’s secure attachment during the first three stages of Erikson’s psychosocial theory. ▸▸ Examine the relationship between cultural diversity and attachment. ▸▸ Identify how an early care and education program can develop and foster secure attachment in infants and young children. ▸▸ Explain how an early care and education program and family can work together to enhance the development of secure attachment. 2 © Jupiterimages/Thinkstock Attachment Theory Chapter 2 Introduction It is a marvel to see a family of mallard ducks walk across a street, mother proudly in front and tiny little ducklings following in a straight line behind. In a flock of sheep with new lambs, it is amazing to see how each pair is somehow able to find each other. In these cases, there is an inborn instinct or bond between the mother and new offspring. This is a survival mechanism that helps the parent care for the tiny, vulnerable new babies. But what about humans? Do we have a similar bond or connection? Is there some kind of built-in mechanism that creates a connection between a parent and his or her newborn child? It is generally believed that humans do have a similar connection or bond, known as attachment (see Chapter 1). According to attachment theory, attachment plays a critical role in the healthy development of the infant and young child and determines whether the child grows into a secure or insecure adult. According to Ainsworth (1973), attachment is an emotional tie formed between one individual and another specific individual. Bowlby (1988) believes that babies are born with behaviors—crying, smiling, and clinging—that elicit caregiving behaviors from parents. An infant, however, is not born with attachment. Rather, attachment develops over time as the result of dynamic interactions between the infant and mother or other significant caregivers. Attachment develops slowly, from birth through the child’s first years. As infants interact with important adults in their lives, they develop a concept or model of their relationship with others—what we call an internal working model (Bowlby, 1973). This model then influences the development of later relationships and acts as a guide to emotions, perceptions, and attitudes. The view that attachment is a critical model that sets the stage for healthy development is known as attachment theory. Not all children develop secur.

Kellogg Foundation 53535353 Developing a Basic Logic Model For Your Program Drawing a picture of how your program will achieve results hether you are a grantseeker developing a proposal for start-up funds or a grantee with a program already in operation, developing a logic model can strengthen your program. Logic models help identify the factors that will impact your program and enable you to anticipate the data and resources you will need to achieve success. As you engage in the process of creating your program logic model, your organization will systematically address these important program planning and evaluation issues: • Cataloguing of the resources and actions you believe you will need to reach intended results. • Documentation of connections among your available resources, planned activities and the results you expect to achieve. • Description of the results you are aiming for in terms of specific, measurable, action- oriented, realistic and timed outcomes. The exercises in this chapter gather the raw material you need to draw a basic logic model that illustrates how and why your program will work and what it will accomplish. You can benefit from creating a logic model at any point in the life of any program. The logic model development process helps people inside and outside your organization understand and improve the purpose and process of your work. Chapter 2 is organized into two sections—Program Implementation, and Program Results. The best recipe for program success is to complete both exercises. (Full-size masters of each exercise and the checklists are provided in the Forms Appendix at the back of the guide for you to photocopy and use with stakeholder groups as you design your program.) Exercise 1: Program Results. In a series of three steps, you describe the results you plan to achieve with your program. Exercise 2: Program Resources and Activities by taking you through three steps that connect the program’s resources to the actual activities you plan to do. Chapter 2 W B A S I C L O G I C M O D E L D E V E L O P M E N T Produced by The W. K. Kellogg Foundation 54545454 The Mytown Example Throughout Exercises 1 and 2 we’ll follow an example program to see how the logic model steps can be applied. In our example, the folks in Mytown, USA are striving to meet the needs of growing numbers of uninsured residents who are turning to Memorial Hospital’s Emergency Room for care. Because that care is expensive and not the best way to offer care, the community is working to create a free clinic. Throughout the chapters, Mytown’s program information will be dropped into logic model templates for Program Planning, Implementation, and Evaluation. Novice Logic modelers may want to have copies of the Basic Logic Model Template in front of them and follow along. Those read.

B H 1. The first issue that jumped out to me is that the president and two vice presidents were the ones to develop the program. Our lecture notes and the text tell us that safety is one topic where management and employees can usually come to an agreement. Everyone wants a safe work environment. We are also taught that consultation is the best way to approach health and safety at work. Again, this means involving more than three people at the company. For starters, I would recommend that the safety program be dismantled and reconstructed by a committee consisting of at least 50% employees, not just senior leadership. I would keep this committee as small as possible and not have it controlled by one person only. The committee should be formed of employees from all sections and representing all possible departments where health and safety are potential issues. 2.

N S 1. 1.Top of Form There could be a number of problems with CMI's safety awareness plan. One major one is that they could not be promoting safety. That is the first step into getting the program to work...employee involvement. First the awareness program was developed by the president and the vice presidents. A safety awareness program can be more successful if employees are involved in the development, and remain involved as it is adjusted and refined. Rules should be in place, and employers must ensure that those rules are followed and enforced consistently. Incentives and competition could be another way to promote safety in the work place. Our text cites that having employees work in teams and have them determine the incentives will keep them involved and promote safety. Also, of course keeping employees up to date on all rules will also promote safety. 2. I think the supervisor's response to employee complaints about John Randall is not appropriate at all. Even thought it is difficult, home problems should not be brought into the work place. Especially if coworkers are complaining about someone's behavior. This does not promote safety at all. To say that Randall will get over it and to disclose that he has personal problems is.

b l u e p r i n t i CONSUMER PERCEPTIONS HQW DQ Perceptions Impact Your Market? By Nicole Olynk Widmar and Melissa McKendree, Purdue University I aintaining existing markets for pork products, I cultivating new markets for existing products and creating new products for new markets are some avenues that the U.S. pork industry has sought, and continues to explore, for growth. When it comes to maintaining markets, there are several relationships that must be considered. End consumers, whether in restaurant or supermarket settings, are increasingly interested in social issues and the production processes employed in food production. Livestock products (meat and dairy products) certainly seem to get the majority of the spotlight in regard to consumers' concern for production processes. Shoppers in supermarkets and din- ers in restaurants have increased access to information via the Internet, and are in constant communication with one another via social media and alterna- tive news sources about perceptions of animal agriculture. Even though most U.S. consumers are not directly in contact with livestock, concern for the treatment of animals, including those employed in food production, is evident — and increasing. While in the past consumers were mainly concerned with factors like the fat or nutritional content of pork, for example, today's savvy shoppers are con- sidering other factors, like the welfare of livestock (pigs), safety of workers employed on farms and potential environmental impacts (externalities) of livestock operations. Large-scale changes in production practices are taking place in livestock 24 April 15, 2014 production due to pressures from various interested parties. Changes such as the discontinued use of gestation stalls, for example, are being sought via traditional regulatory channels in some states, but are also being pushed via non-traditional market channels. Consider the cumbersome process of changing regulations, versus the oftentimes faster (and perhaps easier) channel of influencing key market actors. It is no surprise that consumers' concerns are increasingly voiced to supermarkets and restaurants which, in turn, take action to satisfy their customers by placing pressure on supply-chain players. Changes sought via "the market," rather than legislation or regulation, are increasingly common, and the use of market channels for communicating throughout the supply chain is unlikely to stop anytime soon. www.nationalhogfarmer.com Figure 1.

B R O O K I N G S M E T R O P O L I TA N P O L I CY P R O G RA M 6 I . I N T R O D U C T I O N A s the global economy has become more integrated and urbanized, fueled in large part by technology, major cities and metropolitan areas have become key engines of economic growth. The 123 largest metro areas in the world generate nearly one third of global output with only 13 percent of the world’s population. In this urban-centered world, the classic notion of a global city has been upended. This report introduces a redefined map of global cities, drawing on a new typology that demonstrates how metro areas vary in the ways they attract and amass economic drivers and contribute to global economic growth in distinct ways. New concerns about economic stagnation—in both developing and developed economies—add urgency to mapping the role of the world’s cities and the extent to which they are well-positioned to deliver the next round of global growth.1 Instead of a ranking or indexed score, which many prior cities indices and reports have capably delivered,2 this analysis differentiates the assets and challenges faced by seven types of global cities. This perspective reveals that all major cities are indeed global; they participate as critical nodes in an integrated marketplace and are shaped by global currents. But cities also operate from much different starting points and experience diverse economic trajectories. Concerns about global growth, productiv- ity, and wages are not monolithic, and so this typology can inform the variety of paths cities take to address these challenges. For metro leaders, this typology can also ensure better application of peer com- parisons, enable the identification of more relevant global innovations to local challenges, and reinforce a city-region’s relative role and performance to inform economic strategies that ensure ongoing prosperity. This report proceeds in four parts. In the following section, Part II, we explore the three global forces of urbanization, globalization, and technological change, and how together they are demanding that city- regions focus on five core factors—traded clusters, innovation, talent, infrastructure connectivity, and governance—to bolster their economic competitive- ness. Building on these factors, Part III outlines the data and methods deployed to create the metropolitan typology. Part IV explores the collective economic clout of the metro areas in our sample and introduces the new typology of global cities. Finally, Part V explores the future investments, policies, and strategies required for each grouping of metro areas. Within the typology framework, we explore the priorities for action going forward, including the implications for governance.

Slack, Jr.2 Resumen E ste artículo investiga la totalidad de la influencia de Asia sobre la Nueva España que resultó de la conquista de Manila en 1571 y la re-gularización del comercio Transpacífico -comúnmente conocido como los galeones de Manila o las naos de China- entre las Filipinas y Acapulco. En sus inicios, una oleada constante de inmigrantes asiáticos, mercancías y nuevas técnicas de producción influyeron mesuradamente en la sociedad y la economía colonial mediante un proceso que el autor denomina “Orientali- zación”. No obstante, en ninguna manera “Orientalización” se debe equiparar con el concepto de Edward Said de “Orientalismo” por la relación histórica, única e intima de la Nueva España con Asia a principios de la edad Moderna. Abstract This article examines the totality of Asia’s influence on New Spain that resulted from the conquest of Manila in 1571 and the regularization of transpacific trade – more widely known as the Manila Galleons or naos de China – between the Philippines and Acapulco. In its wake, a steady stream of Asian immigrants, commodities, and manufacturing techniques measurably impacted colonial society and economy through a process the author calls “Orientalization.” However, “Orientalization” should in no way be equated with Edward Said’s 1.

Año 15, núm. 43 / enero – abril de 2012 Edward R. Slack, Jr. concept of “Orientalism” because of New Spain’s uniquely intimate historical relationship with Asia in the early Modern era. Introduction Contrary to popular belief, the Philippines Islands were more a colony of New Spain (Nueva España) than of “Old Spain” prior to the nineteenth century. The Manila galleons, or naos de China (China ships), transported Asian products and peoples to Acapulco and other Mexican ports for approximately 250 years. Riding this ‘first wave’ of maritime contact between the Americas and Asia were tra- velers from China, Japan, the Philippines, various kingdoms in Southeast Asia and India known collectively in New Spain as chinos (Chinese) or indios chinos (Chine- se Indians), as the word chino/a became synonymous with the Orient. The rather indiscrimi- nate categorizing of everything “Asian” under the Spanish noun for the Ming/Qing empire, its subjects and export items is easily discovered in a variety of sources from that age. To illustrate, the eig hteenth centur y works of Italian adventurer Gamelli Carreri and the criollo priest Joachin Antonio de Basarás (who evangelized in Luzon) nonchalantly refer to the Philippine Islands as “la China.”3 Additionally, words such as chinería (Chinese-esque, European/Mexican imitation of Chines.
