This document discusses evidence-based management and decision making. It defines evidence-based practice as focusing on improving decision quality through a process of forming questions, searching for evidence, critically appraising evidence, integrating evidence with expertise, and assessing outcomes. The document provides examples of how pilot Chesley Sullenberger exemplified evidence-based decision making when landing a plane in the Hudson River by relying on scientific findings, organizational facts and checklists, considering decisions carefully, and taking responsibility for all stakeholders. It outlines five good habits for evidence-based practice in both management and teaching.
Key Note of the EHMA 2016 Annual Conference in Porto
In this key note, Rob Briner and Eric Barends from the Center for Evidence Based Management will discuss the basic principles of EBMgt and consider why while most people agree with the principles of EBMgt, few organisations are able to take advantage of its potential benefits. Utilising interactive social media tools
Rob and Eric will demonstrate how EBMgt can be used to separate the wheat from the chaff.
Hypothesis driven design is a powerful method to ensure features you build in your product are valuable and well evidenced. This quick presentation, delivered internally to DWP Digital colleagues, gives tips on writing high quality hypotheses to work from.
Big data, evidence-based, predictive analytics, today these terms are all over the place. Is this just another fad or an irreversible trend? An increasing group of HR leaders relies on science, critical thinking and data analyses to make decisions.
Evidence-based HR, however, is still perceived by many as too time-consuming, narrow or impractical. Meanwhile, evidence-based practice is becoming mainstream in many other disciplines (like medicine). This is the momentum for pioneering HR leaders to seize the opportunity and make a difference with evidence. As part of an inclusive approach, valuing different perspectives.
We will enter into the dialogue about the why, the what, and most of all the how of evidence-based HR. How to get started and how to blend it with softer, less tangible HR practices? A pragmatic introduction, with realistic ambitions and openness towards other approaches.
Unconscious Biases and mental models pose some of the biggest roadblocks to creating inclusive workplaces. We have listed the twelve most common workplace biases, how they impact your work day, and ways to avoid them.
Reach us to know about our unconscious bias workshops in this session, we help bring to the surface the hidden pictures in specific diverse groups, talk through strategies for working through them, and most importantly, help normalize the idea of biases.
Delivered through workplace case scenarios, videos, immersive activities, and lots of space for discussions.

Systematic review and evidence-based work and organizational psychology
Presentation by Prof. Rob Briner
17th congress of the European Association of Work and Organizational Psychology, Oslo
May 20, 2015
Mike Bowler presented on Psychological Safety at the DC Scrum User Group in November. Video and slides available at https://www.kaizenko.com/washington-dc-scrum-user-group-dcsug/
Abstract:
The term "psychological safety" was originally coined by Amy Edmondson to describe a behaviour that we can observe. But what does it mean to be psychologically safe? Why is this such a powerful and critical aspect to ourselves, and those around us?
When we dig a bit deeper, we find that psychological safety is deeply connected to our own survival mechanism. If we're going to create a positive and safe environment, we'll need to address it. And in order to do so, it's helpful to understand what's really going on in our brains.
In this session, we'll look at what we know from neuroscience and psychology about psychological safety. We'll discuss what we might be able to do in our environments, regardless of our job title or role, to make things better for ourselves, and for those we work with.
Calls for both practical and scholarly activities to be grounded more in actual evidence have become louder, especially in the last decade. Four domains in particular have embraced evidence-based thinking, resulting in the respective developments of evidence-based medicine, evidence-based management, evidence-based education and evidence-based policy. Despite the presumed benefits of drawing on different sources of evidence for decision-making in practice, whether in medicine, management, education or policy, this does not seem to prevail. Whilst one likely reason for this slow uptake could simply be down to practitioners not always having much time to consult the evidence-base in their day-to-day work, another reason might be that they are not aware of specific insights applicable to their domain of work or to practice in general.
This is where the workshop contributes:
Representatives from the four key domains engaged with evidence-based practice will share with the audience their latest insights and the consequences thereof for practice. Further, all speakers will discuss questions such as:
What do we have in common?
How can we learn from one another?
How can we combine insights from the four domains?
These will be discussed as part of a concluding panel.

Talent Management – What’s the Evidence?
With Rob Briner & Eric Barends
28th April 2016, 3:00PM-5:00PM, IMI Conference Centre, Dublin 16
In this session, Rob Briner, Prof. of Organisational Psychology, University of Bath and Eric Barends, MD, Centre for Evidence-Based Management, put talent management under the microscope. They challenge some of the traditional thinking behind talent management shaped almost 20 years ago by The War for Talent – including the idea that potential can readily be identified in complex roles and that the best organisations have the best people.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
