Production and Operations Management Systems
Since the beginning of mankind on Earth, if the "busyness" process was successful, then some form of benefit sustained it. The fundamentals are obvious: get the right inputs (materials, labor, money, and ideas); transform them into highly demanded, quality outputs; and make it available in time to the end consumer. Illustrating how operations relat
Production and Operations Management
This text has been developed through extensive research to reflect both the new practices and traditional concepts that instructors feel are important for students to know. Starr uses real-world themes such as quality, technology, people and teamwork, globalization, service and manufacturing, environmental awareness and initiatives, and problem solving. Four real-world cases are included spotlighting Tom's of Maine, Rosenbluth International, Global Concepts Inc. at Celestica's Facility in Little Rock, and the Saturn Corporation on quality, service, smart technology, and the environment, respectively. This text follows a systems approach that is both systematic and constructive. Starr integrates OM decisions with the functional areas of business whose challenge is to make the firm perform as a team. It combines the methods of analysis and synthesis, which lead to better decisions and problem-solving skills for complex situations.

Foundations of Production and Operations Management
Foundations of Production and Operations Management focuses on the concepts essential to a simple-quantitative understanding of strategies and tactics in the P/OM field. Using a managerial focus with the systems approach, this book clarifies the field of Production and Operations Management in its current state. The systems approach is ideal for the managerial focus because the systems approach crosses functional boundaries in search of best solutions. This line of attack has come into strong favor by industry managers. In lieu of detailed quantitative discussions, Starr has streamlined, clarified, and updated fundamental qualitative concepts of business and P/OM. This introductory text provides students with a solid managerial framework for making better decisions, developing career skills, and problem-solving to support company sustainability. The writing style encourages educational literacy. This textbook is dedicated to broad educational objectives in the belief that managers prefer to hire well-informed students.
Production and Operations Management
Production and Operations Management explains how P/OM is fulfilling its strategic mission and responsibility for processes. It is essential for P/OM students to become conversant in new product planning. They must also be able to pursue P/OM goals in partnership with marketing, finance and other business functions. With P/OM participation, strategic thinking links new products to the best possible process configurations for goods and services. Using the systems approach, P/OM is shown as crucial to strategic global planning. Strategies and tactics are evaluated together for their combined contribution to productivity, low costs, high quality, timeliness, and total capability for the efficie...
Disaggregation
This volume is intended to expand the dialogue and interest among both practitioners and academicians in a problem area worthy of attention by all. The concept of disaggregation admits to our current inability to solve many types of interrelated hierarchical problems simultaneously. It offers instead a sequential, iterative process as a workable and necessary procedure. The papers in this volume are selected from those presented at a Disaggregation Conference held in March, 1977 at The Ohio State University. We heartily applaud all those who participated in the conference and particularly appreci ate the cooperation of those authors whose work is published in this collection. Part A contains...
Child Abuse in Sport

Routledge Handbook of Applied Sport Psychology
Applied sport psychology knowledge has advanced rapidly in recent years. Traditionally, literature focused primarily on a narrow range of topics associated with performance enhancement, giving rise to a model of helping labelled psychological skills training. Although the psychological skills training model has considerable value, the literature has broadened to address a greater diversity of athlete and team issues; a greater range of methods; and a greater recognition of the knowledge, skills, and attributes practitioners need to help clients. The first edition of the Routledge Handbook of Applied Sport Psychology was seminal work, bringing together the full range of knowledge and skills s...
