Key Performance Indicators (KPI): Developing, Implementing, and Using Winning KPIs book pdf download By David Parmenter

Today I learned something. And that is worth the price of this book!David Parmenter opens the book showing how we often confuse results, with actions that we need to take to get those results. He shows an onion and Key Result Indicators (KRIs) being the outer most layer of that onion. This is what we see as the end result in a company – Customer Satisfaction, Financial Results in terms of Profits, etc. The next layers inside are the Result Indicators (RIs) and Performance Indicators (PIs). Performance Indicators are like % Increase in Sales with say top 10 Customers. Result Indicators are like Sales done Yesterday. David then makes the key distinction that only some are Key Performance Indicators that drive the whole company outwards from the core of the onion! These are the ones you need to monitor closely on a daily, weekly, monthly basis as appropriate but they cause the other indicators to have positive or negative values.The example he uses is that of a British Airways CEO who always called the relevant British Airways people at the airport EVERYTIME a flight left late. That kept the BA personnel on their toes making sure the planes left on time all the time! Now every Performance Indicator, Result Indicator and Key Results Indicator downstream like On Time Record, Sales Per Flight and Customer Satisfaction Index were all exemplary!David also talks about a very useful 10/80/10 rule that says KPIs should only be 10% of all the metrics. Result Indicators and Performance Indicators make up 80% and Key Result Indicators 10%. This enables management at different levels pay attention to those that are relevant and urgent on a daily basis (KPIs) so that all downstream results and indicators are on track.There is also an elaborate 12 step implementation process on how to plan for, implement and fine tune a KPI measurement regimen. The best illustration I liked was that of a Dial Chart on page 171 that provided at a glance a lot of information – Performance Indicator on a Speedometer where you can see current performance value, Best Performance so far as a dot on the meter, worst performance as a dot, acceptable, middle and unacceptable ranges of performance all in the same speedometer! In one glance you know where your current performance stands. That should be the goal of visualizations – all information in one place at the same time!I will never think about KPIs the same way again! Very useful, illuminating book!

The Political Economy of Economic Growth in Africa, 1960-2000 book pdf download By Paul M. Collier

The period from 1960 to 2000 was one of remarkable growth and transformation in the world economy. Why did most of Sub-Saharan Africa fail to develop over this period? Why did a few small African economies succeed spectacularly? The Political Economy of Economic Growth in Africa, 1960-2000 is by far the most ambitious and comprehensive assessment of Africa’s post-independence economic performance to date. Volume 1 examines the impact of resource wealth and geographical remoteness on Africa’s growth and develops a new dataset of governance regimes covering all of Sub-Saharan Africa. Separate chapters analyze the dominant patterns of governance observed over the period and their impact on growth, the ideological formation of the political elite, the roots of political violence and reform, and the lessons of the 1960-2000 period for contemporary growth strategy.

The Plundered Planet: Why We Must–and How We Can–Manage Nature for Global Prosperity book pdf download By Paul M. Collier

Paul Collier’s The Bottom Billion was greeted as groundbreaking when it appeared in 2007, winning the Estoril Distinguished Book Prize, the Arthur Ross Book Award, and the Lionel Gelber Prize. The Economist wrote that it was “set to become a classic,” the Financial Times praised it as “rich in both analysis and recommendations,” while Nicholas Kristof of the New York Times called it the “best nonfiction book so far this year.” Now, in The Plundered Planet, Collier builds upon his renowned work on developing countries and the poorest populations to confront the global mismanagement of nature. Proper stewardship of natural assets and liabilities is a matter of planetary urgency: natural resources have the potential either to transform the poorest countries or to tear them apart, while the carbon emissions and agricultural follies of the rich world could further impoverish them. The Plundered Planet charts a course between unchecked profiteering on the one hand and environmental romanticism on the other to offer realistic and sustainable solutions to dauntingly complex issues. Grounded in a belief in the power of informed citizens, Collier proposes a series of international standards that would help poor countries rich in natural assets better manage those resources, policy changes that would raise world food supply, and a clear-headed approach to climate change that acknowledges the benefits of industrialization while addressing the need for alternatives to carbon trading. Revealing how these are all interconnected, The Plundered Planet charts a way forward to avoid the mismanagement of the natural world that threatens our future.

The Bottom Billion: Why the Poorest Countries are Failing and What Can Be Done About It book pdf download By Paul M. Collier

Global poverty, Paul Collier points out, is actually falling quite rapidly for about eighty percent of the world. The real crisis lies in a group of about 50 failing states, the bottom billion, whose problems defy traditional approaches to alleviating poverty. In The Bottom Billion, Collier contends that these fifty failed states pose the central challenge of the developing world in the twenty-first century. The book shines a much needed light on this group of small nations, largely unnoticed by the industrialized West, that are dropping further and further behind the majority of the world’s people, often falling into an absolute decline in living standards. A struggle rages within each of these nation between reformers and corrupt leaders–and the corrupt are winning. Collier analyzes the causes of failure, pointing to a set of traps that snare these countries, including civil war, a dependence on the extraction and export of natural resources, and bad governance. Standard solutions do not work against these traps, he writes; aid is often ineffective, and globalization can actually make matters worse, driving development to more stable nations. What the bottom billion need, Collier argues, is a bold new plan supported by the Group of Eight industrialized nations. If failed states are ever to be helped, the G8 will have to adopt preferential trade policies, new laws against corruption, and new international charters, and even conduct carefully calibrated military interventions. As former director of research for the World Bank and current Director of the Center for the Study of African Economies at Oxford University, Paul Collier has spent a lifetime working to end global poverty. In The Bottom Billion, he offers real hope for solving one of the great humanitarian crises facing the world today.

Fairness in International Trade book pdf download By Paul M. Collier

This book arises out of papers delivered at the World Congress of the International Society of Business, Economics and Ethics (ISBEE) held in Cape Town in 2008. There are two sections. First, a number of key papers provide an insight into global business, wealth creation and welfare issues with particular reference to the African continent – appropriate for a Congress that was based in South Africa and drew wide participation from African scholars. Second, it provides the output from a global research project on “Fairness in International Trade” which ran over the two years prior to the Congress. This project drew together the work of scholars in five regions across the globe and is the first time that such a global perspective has been attempted. This book is aimed at academics working in the area of international trade or development economics particularly those who have an interest in the ethical dimensions of trade. It will also be of interest to students of development economics and business ethics particularly at Masters and Doctoral level.

Tanzania : the path to prosperity book pdf download By Paul M. Collier

This book, the third in the Africa: Policies for Prosperity series, is concerned with the challenges of securing economic prosperity in Tanzania over the coming decades. Building on widespread economic reforms in the early 1990s, Tanzania has recorded steady economic growth over the last two decades, despite the downturn in global economic fortunes since 2008. The process of reform is continuous, however, and the challenge facing the current generation of policymakers is how to harness these favourable gains in macroeconomic stability and turn them into a coherent strategy for labour-intensive, inclusive growth over the coming decades. The next twenty years offer huge opportunity but also huge challenges to Tanzania. The pace of economic transformation and integration into the regional and global economy is picking up; society is becoming much more urban and with population growth remaining high, the need for high-quality employment, especially amongst the young, has never been so pressing. At the same time, the discovery of large natural gas reserves and a programme of heavy investment in transport and communications infrastructure creates the opportunity for Tanzania not just to exploit its natural locational advantage, but to finance the investment in this transformation. This volume brings leading international and national scholars into the policy arena to examine these challenges and to lay out, in a rigorous but accessible manner, economic policy options facing policymakers in Tanzania.

Refuge Transforming a Broken Refugee System book pdf download By Paul M. Collier

ECONOMIST BOOK OF THE YEAR 2017 ‘Betts and Collier offer innovative insights into how to more effectively meet this challenge, with an important new focus on international solidarity and refugee empowerment’ Kofi Annan ‘Refugees and policy makers need practical answers to what is now a global crisis. This valuable book represents the kind of can-do thinking that we need to see’ David Miliband An eye-opening account of the migrant crisis which shows why our global refugee regime is broken and how it can be fixed Europe is facing its greatest refugee crisis since the Second World War, yet the institutions responding to it remain virtually unchanged from those created in the post-war era. As neighbouring countries continue to bear the brunt of the Syrian catastrophe, European governments have enacted a series of ill-considered gestures, from shutting their borders to welcoming refugees without a plan for their safe passage or integration upon arrival. With a deepening crisis and a xenophobic backlash in Europe, it is time for a new vision for refuge. Going beyond the scenes of desperation which have become all-too-familiar in the past few years, Alexander Betts and Paul Collier show that this crisis offers an opportunity for reform if international policy-makers focus on delivering humane, effective and sustainable outcomes – both for Europe and for countries that border conflict zones. Refugees need more than simply food, tents and blankets, and research demonstrates that they can offer tangible economic benefits to their adopted countries if given the right to work and education. An urgent and necessary work, Refuge sets out an alternative vision that can empower refugees to help themselves, contribute to their host societies, and even rebuild their countries of origin.
