Lean Human Performance Improvement

Lean Human Performance Improvement

As companies continue their efforts to improve work performance they must ensure that their ongoing Lean activities include a healthy appreciation for and recognition of human performance. Ignoring the human component of work performance can be a recipe for unnecessary waste inefficiency and decreased productivity. Lean Human Performance Improvement presents a broad overview of human performance in the workplace. The author discusses his findings from a broad spectrum of human performance-related fields and diverse industrial sectors (gained by working in the field for over 30 years). Organized in three sections this book covers understanding human performance analyzing and improving work productivity and analyzing and improving quality and safety. The author first develops a fundamental and basic understanding of human performance then couples that understanding with learning how to analyze and improve human-related work productivity and quality and safety. He also discusses how knowledge and skills transfer from one work setting to another. Intended for Lean Six Sigma team members and human performance improvement practitioners the book contains multiple examples from diverse work settings to explain key points. It also includes several major case studies. The goal of all examples and case studies is to develop a generic understanding that in turn can be successfully applied to any work setting.

Performance Art in Portugal

Performance Art in Portugal

This book explores histories which have only recently been rediscovered by artists and researchers. This study explores the history of Portuguese performance art in its various speculative and performative forms. The author approaches this relationship with the re-emergence and centrality of these (semi-)peripheral histories at an international level whilst identifying some of their unique traits: their cycles of emergence and retraction in Portuguese history; their multiple and complex ontologies; the intertwined relations between the art of performance and the social performance of the Portuguese (regarding topics as sensitive and fracturing as those of the long dictatorship the colonial war and the revolutionary process or even the integration of Portugal in the European Community and more recently the various 21st century social political and economic crises). This reading in turn covers the development of the relationship between performance and hybridism namely analyzing the recent dimension of meta-hybridism in the processes of artistic homage that contemporary Portuguese creators have been establishing through access to the histories and archives of this historical genre. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars in theatre and performance studies performance art and arts in general. | Performance Art in Portugal

Measuring Safety Management Performance

Measuring Safety Management Performance

Measuring Safety Management Performance lists and explains the difference between lagging and leading measures of safety management performance. It informs the reader how to use both proactive and reactive safety performance indicators and explains that consequence measurement is not an accurate reflection of the organization’s safety effort. It suggests managements’ Safety Performance Indicators (SPI) should be changed to proactive positive measures of action and activities which can be controlled and accurately measured. A roadmap of a holistic system for measurement is offered that covers health and safety performance. It shows how management is traditionally informed about where they have been by information provided relating to injury data rather than proactive measurable and controllable data on accident prevention efforts provided by the health and safety management system (SMS) which indicate where they are going. This highly practical book features examples of safety performance indicators provides positive guidelines for accurate safety performance measurement and is based on actual workplace experiences. It explains the strengths and weaknesses of proactive and reactive measurement metrics and gives examples of leading and lagging safety performance indicators. This book will be an ideal read for professionals and graduate students in the fields of occupational health and safety ergonomics and human factors engineering. It will have resonance with managers and professionals engaged in health and safety provisions at their place of work.

Music Performance Encounters Collaborations and Confrontations

Music Performance Encounters Collaborations and Confrontations

Why do most musical performers and musical researchers continue to inhabit divergent epistemic spaces? To what extent is the act of musical performance coextensive with the act of doing musical research and vice versa? At what point in the research process can a performative act transform into a scholarly one and a scholarly act into a performative one? These and other related questions form the central focus of this book with each chapter offering a fresh perspective on a particular topic in music performance studies: improvisational traditions historical performance practices analysis and performance sports psychology cross-cultural musical interactions and institutional challenges. This book is aimed at music researchers teachers students and practising musicians interested in the intersection of academic and performance research; as such it seeks to bridge the divide between the research of university-trained musicologists scholars from other fields who focus on music and the growing community of musical artist-researchers. Material in this book is supported by performance outcomes offered by the contributors on a separate YouTube channel and on the Routledge online portal. | Music Performance Encounters Collaborations and Confrontations

The Basics of Performance Measurement

The Basics of Performance Measurement

You can‘t understand manage or improve what you don‘t measure While every smart executive now knows the truth of those words perhaps more so than anyone it was Jerry Harbour who turned that adage into a science. Originally published in 1997 The Basics of Performance Measurement helped pioneer the science of performance measurement and continues to serve as an industry standard. Yet despite the book‘s continued relevancy Harbour is once again stepping ahead of the curve to fully update his little yellow book. In addition to adding the wisdom of lessons learned over the past decade he adds two new chapters to this second edition. One of these chapters discusses units of measurement. The other introduces ways to better interpret what has been measured and then translate those measurement-related interpretations into actionable knowledge. Harbour provides a six-step method for developing a performance measurement system. He shows how to design performance measurement families and how to build hierarchies tailored to different levels within an organization. He also covers collection and distribution as well as the value of performance measure displays. When you finish this book you will be able to undertake performance measurement with new confidence. You will also come away knowing how to present your findings with an authority that will convince stakeholders of the importance and accuracy of your results.

Out of Time? Temporality In Disability Performance

Out of Time? Temporality In Disability Performance

Out of Time? has many different meanings amongst them outmoded out of step under time pressure no time left or simply delayed. In the disability context it may also refer to resistant attitudes of living in “crip time” that contradict time as a linear process with a more or less predictable future. According to Alison Kafer “crip time bends the clock to meet disabled bodies and minds. ” What does this mean in the disability arts? What new concepts of accessibility crip futures and crip resistance can be staged or created by disability performance? And how does the notion of “out of time” connect crip time with pandemic time in disability performance? The collective volume seeks to respond to these questions by exploring crip time in disability performance as both a concept and a phenomenon. The book tackles the topic from two angles: on the one hand from a theoretical point of view that connects performance analysis with crip and performance theory on the other hand from a practice-based perspective of disability artists who develop new concepts and dramaturgies of crip time based on their own lived experiences and observations in the field of the performing and disability arts. The book gathers different types of text genres forms and styles that mirror the diversity of their authors. Besides theoretical and academic chapters on disability performance the book also includes essays poems dramatic texts and choreographic concepts that ref lect upon the alternative knowledge in the disability arts. | Out of Time?

Unraveling the complexities involved in the conservation of performance Performance: The Ethics and the Politics of Conservation and Care (vol. 1)brings this new understanding to bear in examining performance as an object ofstudy experience acquisition and care. In so doing it presents both theoreticalframeworks and functional paradigms for thinking about—and enacting—theconservation of performance. Further while the conservation of performance isundertheorized performance is nevertheless increasingly entering the artmarket and the museum meaning that there is an urgent need for discourse onhow to care for these works long-term. In recent years a few pioneering conservators curators and scholars have begun to create frameworks for the longtermcare of performance. This volume presents explicates and contextualizestheir work so that a larger discourse can commence. It will thus serve the needsof conservation students and professors for whom literature on this subject issorely needed. This interdisciplinary book thus implements a novel rethinking of performancethat will challenge and revitalize its conception in many fields such as art history theater performance studies heritage studies and anthropology. | Performance The Ethics and the Politics of Conservation and Care Volume I

Integrated Reporting and Performance Measurement Systems

Integrated Reporting and Performance Measurement Systems

Despite the development of innovative approaches to strengthen accountability and the quality of integrated reporting disclosures stakeholders are increasingly demanding more objective and unambiguous data. Therefore the use of non-financial performance measures that assist in collecting comparable information and the verification thereof by independent experts can help to establish trust in a firm’s communication with its stakeholders. Certainly non-financial information should complement mandatory financial reporting to go beyond traditional financial ratios and link them to non-financial risks and achievements. This book examines the possibility of using information provided by performance measurement systems in the process of preparing integrated reports. It presents an overview of the integrated report from the supply side which undoubtedly affects the quality and usefulness of the information presented as well as enhances the manner in which the data and analyses are suitable for independent assessment. The book looks at the ways in which various groups of stakeholders - management; those who prepare non-financial reports; investors - influence the scope of the key performance indicators (KPIs) used for integrated reporting purposes and what categories of KPIs are the most significant. Further it analyzes which performance measurement systems provide information for the different components of integrated reports. The book is interdisciplinary its thematic scope is at the intersection of accounting business reporting and business management and thus it provides an important source of knowledge for students scholars and researchers of economics finance and management. It will also be a valuable guide for those preparing integrated reports or other forms of non-financial reporting. | Integrated Reporting and Performance Measurement Systems

Meaning in the Midst of Performance Contradictions of Participation

Meaning in the Midst of Performance Contradictions of Participation

Being an audience participant can be a confusing and contradictory experience. When a performance requires us to do things we are put in the situation of being both actor and spectator of being part of the work of art while also being the audience who receives it and of being both perceiving subject and aesthetic object. This book examines these contradictions – and many others – as they appear by accident and by design in increasingly popular forms of interactive immersive and participatory performance in theatre and live art. Borrowing concepts from cognitive philosophy and bringing them into a conversation with critical theory Gareth White sharply examines meaning as a process that happens to us as we are engaged in the problems and negotiations of a participatory performance. This study will be of great interest to scholars and students of theatre and performance intermedial arts and games studies and to practising artists. | Meaning in the Midst of Performance Contradictions of Participation
