What Business Really Wants from IT: A Collaborative Guide for Business Directors and CIOs

Terry White, "What Business Really Wants from IT: A Collaborative Guide for Business Directors and CIOs (Computer Weekly Professional)"
Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann | 2004 | ISBN 0750660961 | PDF | 208 pages | 1.7 MB

Business expectations of their IT departments are simple: Deliver IT without fuss, get involved in achieving business results, and pre leadership. But while business emphasis is on business results and leadership, IT is focused on the technology.
How to get your IT Department to Add Real Value to Business presents a practical framework that defines the roles and activities for the CIO to meet business expectations. It introduces a new approach to IT in large organizations, which shifts the focus from day to day technological operations to three critical areas of performance for IT: IT management, business results and information leadership.
The concepts are simple and elegant but the implementation is increasingly demanding. However, these changes are essential if in-house IT functions are to survive and prosper in organizations.
The author's framework has already proven itself in changing business and IT perspectives significantly. Large organisations have commenced the implementation process, and are reporting significant results. The book offers ground-breaking perspectives on the role of IT in organisations. These perspectives are finding favour with business and IT people alike. The book offers practical and anecdotal examples and plans to assist in implementing the framework.
*CIOs will benefit from a radically changed perspective on how they can gain real alignment and add real value to their business
*Business management will benefit from a new understanding of what they should expect from their IT functions
*Offers a new common language to talk meaningfully about IT and business issues

Stress Management Hypnosis

Stress Management Hypnosis by Psychomed
Publisher: Psychomed 2010 | ISBN: n/a | Language English | Audio CD in MP3 - CBR | 90 MB

After taking you on a walk through the woods, past the idyllic scenery of your holiday locations, across mountain streams filtering pure and refreshing water, two metaphoric stories will evoke a scene as you would experience it in a dream. They also reach out to your intuitive intelligence, spontaneity, self-confidence and the natural stress-relieving behaviour of certain animals. Gradually, like a pilot in charge of your own destiny, you will be flying your own small plane through the clouds of your existence. This recording contains powerful suggestions that will dispel the concerns that have crystallised in the depths of your subconscious. Length : 47:05

This recording is also encoded with Audiostrobe signals, so those of you with Audiostrobe compatible AVS systems will know what this means. If you don't own an AVS system just listen to this recording in the normal way, as you would any other recording, as Audiostrobe signals are inaudible to the human ear, and are only used to control the light goggles on AVS systems
and do not affect the listening experience in any way.

Nursing Law and Ethics

John Tingle, Alan Cribb, "Nursing Law and Ethics"
Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell | 2002 | ISBN 0632055073 | PDF | 320 pages | 2.4 MB

This valuable book is distinctive in that it deals with both law and ethics. There is both practical and academic value in knowing 'what the law requires' and ' what is right', and in understanding that these two are not always the same.
This second edition builds upon the strengths of the first. The interface between law, ethics and nursing is explored in the first part of the book as are patient complaints and the changing policy context of nursing law. The chapters in Part 2 contain both legal and ethical perspectives on more specialist topics including negligence, consent, resource allocation, mental health nursing, the critically ill patient, clinical governance and research.
