Achieving high performance through people is one of the most challenging aspects of leadership. Balancing good culture and high performance is never easy in any organisation. You want your people to be happy and enjoy coming to work, but you also need them to be productive and produce results. Many leaders believe the two just can’ t coexist and that it’ s impossible to drive people to deliver results while allowing them to have fun and enjoy being at work. Australia’ s own ‘ Culture Queen’ Elaine Jobson guarantees that it’s not only possible but essential if you want to build a company that achieves sustainable performance over the long term. She sets out how to do this in this very practical, easy-to-follow book, comprising five parts: 1. The relationship performance and culture 2. Leading a high-performing, happy culture 3. Building high-performance teams 4. Designing your high-performance culture 5. Making lasting culture change. By following the strategies in High Performance Through Happy People, a leader with the desire to invest the time and focus needed to implement the change required can be confident of stellar results.

2013 | 253 Pages | ISBN: 3642367801 | PDF | 6 MB
This book constitutes the refereed post-proceedings of the 9th European Performance Engineering Workshop, EPEW 2012, held in Munich, Germany, and the 28th UK Performance Engineering Workshop, UKPEW 2012, held in Edinburgh, UK, in July 2012. The 15 regular papers and one poster presentation paper presented together with 2 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics from classical performance modeling areas such as wireless network protocols and parallel execution of scientific codes to hot topics such as energy-aware computing to unexpected ventures into ranking professional tennis players. In addition to new case studies, the papers also present new techniques for dealing with the modeling challenges brought about by the increasing complexity and scale of systems today.

Teaching and Evaluating Music Performance at University Beyond the Conservatory Model


Free Download John Encarnacao, "Teaching and Evaluating Music Performance at University: Beyond the Conservatory Model "
English | ISBN: 1032236175 | 2021 | 268 pages | EPUB, PDF | 3 MB + 8 MB
Fresh perspectives on teaching and evaluating music performance in higher education are offered in this book. One-to-one pedagogy and Western art music, once default positions of instrumental teaching, are giving way to a range of approaches that seek to engage with the challenges of the music industry and higher education sector funding models of the twenty-first century. Many of these approaches – formal, informal, semi-autonomous, notated, using improvisation or aleatory principles, incorporating new technology – are discussed here. Chapters also consider the evolution of the student, play as a medium for learning, reflective essay writing, multimodal performance, interactivity and assessment criteria.
