Making Sense of Data in the Media


Book Description

The amount of data produced, captured and transmitted through the media has never been greater. But for this data to be useful, it needs to be properly understood and claims made about or with data need to be properly scrutinized. Through a series of examples of statistics in the media, this book shows you how to critically assess the presentation of data in the media, to identify what is significant and to sort verifiable conclusions from misleading claims. How accurate are polls, and how should we know? How should league tables be read? Are numbers presented as ‘large’ really as big as they may seem at first glance? By answering these questions and more, readers will learn a number of statistical concepts central to many undergraduate social science statistics courses. By tying them in to real life examples, the importance and relevance of these concepts comes to life. As such, this book does more than teaches techniques needed for a statistics course; it teaches you life skills that we need to use every single day.

Erfolgsformel Lean


Book Description

Lean – die dauerhafte Erfolgsformel! Kaizen und Kata sind etablierte Konzepte, die schon viele Unternehmen an die Spitze geführt haben. Kaizen kann übersetzt werden als das ständige Streben zum Besseren, Kata sind verinnerliche Routinen, die zu der im Lean Management notwendigen Geisteshaltung führen. Nach wie vor sind beide Konzepte hoch aktuell und extrem wertschöpfend! Doch traditionelle Lean Management-Ansätze sind nach innen gerichtet, das Umfeld spielt eine eher untergeordnete Rolle. Das wird der zunehmenden globalen Vernetzung in Zeiten steigender Digitalisierung und notwendiger Flexibilisierung jedoch nicht mehr gerecht. Unternehmen müssen nach außen offen sein, Kooperationen eingehen, ein stabiles Netzwerk aufbauen. Dieses Praktikerwerk kombiniert nun Kaizen und Kata mit Kereitsu. Kereitsu ist eine japanische Methode, die auf Kooperationen mit externen Partnern setzt. Schritt für Schritt wird gezeigt, wie sich diese Konzepte in der Praxis umsetzen lassen, was dabei die Erfolgskriterien sind, aber auch wo sich Hürden verbergen. - Bringt frischen Wind ins Lean Management - Schafft die Basis, um jede Transformation zu meistern - Mit konkreter Umsetzungsanleitung - Viele Beispiele und praktische Tipps - Mit Arbeitshilfen zum Download
