Methods-Based Management: Legitimacy via Fluidity and Immersion

Methods-Based Management: Legitimacy via Fluidity and Immersion

Kenneth B. Tingey

Createspace Independent Publishing Platform

Methods-Based Management is the embodiment of the scientific method applied to organizations. No one has declared that a scientific approach to management of organizations was possible since Frederick W. Taylor, whose work was judged to fall short of that mark. Several developments outlined in this book support the idea that organizations can turn to science for resolution of their problems, from big to small. Quality models dating almost a century ago to Walter Shewhart, coupled with innovations over many decades in North America and Japan, resulted in development of quality/lean-oriented methodological approaches to improved behavior of organizations. These methods, based on the scientific method, are not universally recognized. Tingey adds two considerations to this mix. The first is an information-processing model that is within the reach of non-technologist logic designers. The second is network analysis, an approach that bridges between social and physical spheres to improve even on the results of quality/lean efforts. Together, these approaches can bring breakthrough performance to organizations, allowing organizations to make maximal use of their people as well as their technologies.

In April 1941, Burton C. "Stretch" Thomson, a twenty-six-year-old 1st Lieutenant in the U. S. Army's Veterinary Corps, sailed to his new duty station in the Philippine Islands. He is leaving a wife and 7-month old son in Iowa; he will be gone for two years. Arriving in Manila in May 1941 he learns that he has been assigned to the 4th Veterinary Hospital at Fort Stotsenburg in Luzon Province. He will take up his duties as a veterinarian with the 26th Cavalry Regiment. On August 1st, Stretch is transferred to Fort Mills, Corregidor Island. Corregidor is one of the five highly fortified islands at the entrance of Manila Bay. Stretch, as the sole veterinarian, will be responsible for the 25 mules on the island plus regular sanitary inspections. When war breaks out, Stretch is assigned an additional duty as mess officer for the station hospital now located in the confines of Malinta Tunnel. Corregidor's defenders finally surrender to the Japanese on May 6, 1942. Immediately, betrayal emerged from the ranks of Corregidor's defenders in the form of a U.S. Army Sergeant. A drawn-out process after the war would finally bring Sergeant John David Provoo before a jury of his peers in late 1952 to defend against the charge of treason. A prolonged investigation by the FBI, a questionable decision by the Department of Justice and an inartful prosecution of the case by the U.S. district attorney would lead to an appeal of the trial court's finding of guilty.

Incarcerated Epistles: Soul Of Recidivism

Incarcerated Epistles: Soul Of Recidivism

Kenneth B. Allen Jr; Andre F. Hopkins; Mr Writers Blokc

Independently Published
2019
nidottu
Within three years of release, about two-thirds (67.8 percent) of released prisoners were rearrested. Within five years of release, about three-quarters (76.6 percent) of released prisoners were rearrested, according to national statistics. Incarcerated Epistles: Soul Of Recidivism is an introspective and candid look into just that statistic. Have you ever wondered what it was like in jail? Many ask what is the difference between jail and prison? Do you have a family member in prison? What do people really go through in there? Is it like the movies? Many questions, perceptions and misconceptions permeate our minds about the Prison Industrial Complex; but do we really stop and ask about what goes on inside the soul of a man behind bob wire fences and the proverbial "23/1". This book is a look into the psyche of the author as a newly processed inmate from interstate extradition from Michigan Department of Corrections (MDOC) to Virginia Department of Corrections (VDOC), and his mentality through the beginning stages of recidivism. A compilation of letters written from different jails/prisons have been compiled alongside edifying writings during a two year period(10 years total) of incarceration as a cautionary tale for youth to not indulge or act on criminal thinking, instant gratification, and other catalyst of destructive behavior; in juxtaposition to inspire other felons to not re-offend and succumb to the vicious cycle of recidivism. These writings serve to be a testament that will stand the test of time for the youth, civilian, felons, law enforcement, courts, judges, and legislation to all learn and make the necessary changes for the greater good of the existence of humanity.

Limits of Political Theory

Limits of Political Theory

Kenneth B. McIntyre

Imprint Academic
2004
sidottu
This book examines Oakeshott's political philosophy within the context of his more general conception of philosophical understanding. The book stresses the underlying continuity of his major writings on the subject and takes seriously the implications of understanding the world in terms of modality. The book suggests strongly that Oakeshott’s philosophy of political activity cannot be reduced to a branch of conservatism, liberalism, or postmodernism or a theory or set of doctrines which fit neatly into any conventional school, like that of Idealism or Skepticism. Rather, Oakeshott’s philosophy of political activity is a provocation to all of the currently dominant schools of political theory and political practice. It questions their presuppositions and exposes as ambiguous, arbitrary, or confused all of the supposed certainties which they take for granted. It does all this by offering profound insights into the character and limits of both political activity and political theory in the modern world.

Heart Love to Head Love is a daunting and unconventional coming-of-age story frame against the backdrop of managing loved ones with the onset of a debilitating neurocognitive disorder. Two blended families find themselves forced to face and conquer the reality of caregiving in its rawest form. Their collective creativity and resilience intersect beautifully to untangle the complexities of their new normal, particularly in relation to two major characters who start out as strangers and end up connected in the most unusual way. Family dynamics, memory care issues, health decisions, planning for the future, and day-to-day survival, mixed in with good old-fashioned fun, are topics that evolve through this American love story. The work is hard but the balancing act is a story worth telling.

Nomocratic Pluralism

Nomocratic Pluralism

Kenneth B. McIntyre

Springer Nature Switzerland AG
2020
sidottu
This book is a contribution to the ongoing conversation about value pluralism and its relation to political life. Its uniqueness lies in its insistence that the acceptance of value pluralism involves placing certain limitations on what is an acceptable form of government and what functions governments ought to be legitimately performing. In a new approach coined “nomocratic pluralism,” this volume argues that liberty under the rule of law, which is not merely liberty where the law is silent, is a key concept of liberty and cannot be subsumed by the other primary implications of the acceptance of value pluralism: that political communities must reject positive liberty as a political value, and place a high, but not absolute, priority on negative liberty as a political value. The concept of liberty under the rule of law is particularly suited to accommodate a great variety of individual and group conceptions of value and the moral good, and thus, along with negative liberty, should be a primary value for those who accept value pluralism.

In der heutigen Phantastik-Forschung findet man nur eine recht selektive und oft sparliche Behandlung des Hoffmannschen Werks. Zu Unrecht: E.T.A. Hoffmanns literarisch-asthetische Produktion bietet Moglichkeiten fur eine Neufassung des Begriffs des Phantastischen. Die Studie nimmt hier ihren Ausgangspunkt. Unter Berucksichtigung der literarischen Darstellungsmittel Ironie, Satire, Groteske und Parodie wird die Bedeutung, Reichweite und Aussagekraft der hoffmannschen Schreibweise im Rahmen des romantischen Denkens untersucht und theoretisch fruchtbar gemacht."

Enzyme Kinetics and Mechanisms

Enzyme Kinetics and Mechanisms

Kenneth B. Taylor

Springer
2010
nidottu
Enzyme Kinetics and Mechanisms takes the reader through the experimental techniques and the logic by which the mechanisms of enzyme-catalyzed reactions can be elucidated by the results of steady-state kinetics and related experiments. It is meant to make these investigations both satisfying and effective. In distinction to other available descriptions, the descriptions in enzyme Kinetics and Mechanisms are limited to more commonly utilized and useful models and techniques. The logic relating the chemical models to the mathematical models and the logic of relating the mathematical models to data is presented in rather concise text, figures and equations. The development of mathematical models from chemical models is done by a unique algorithm that is both simple and quick, and the same concept are utilized to develop models for the effects of a variety of reaction conditions on the initial velocity. In addition, the various relationships of data, mathematical models and the chemical models is illustrated with examples from the scientific literature.
