Portfolio Management : Delivering on Strategy
Portfolio management is becoming the ‘must have’ for organizations to prosper and survive in this decade and beyond.No longer can the organizational focus be one of following best and repeatable practices as resource limitations mean only those programs, projects, and operational work that add business value can and should be pursued.Executives are focusing on strategic ability and managing complexity, which can only be done through a disciplined portfolio process in ensuring the best mix of programs, projects, and operational work is under way.In turn, the portfolio is constantly in flux as difficult decisions are made if a project, for example, is no longer contributing to business value and providing benefits and should be terminated to reallocate resources to one of higher priority.Commitment to this difficult approach is necessary at all levels, and communication is required so everyone knows how their work contributes to the organization’s strategic goals and objectives. Portfolio Management: Delivering on Strategy, Second Edition focuses on the benefits of portfolio management to the organization.Its goal is to provide senior executives a view on how portfolio management can deliver organizational strategy.The emphasis is on the specific aspects within the portfolio management discipline and how each aspect should be managed from a business perspective and not necessarily from a portfolio management perspective.Highlights of the book include:Agile portfolio management Delivering organizational value Portfolio management and uncertainty Portfolio governance Marketing a portfolio Portfolio management success Starting with a review of the project portfolio concept and its development, this book is a reference for executives and practitioners in the field, as well as a students and researchers studying portfolio management.

Isaac Newton
From one of the best writers on science, a remarkable portrait of Isaac Newton.The man who changed our understanding of the universe, of science, and of faith. Isaac Newton was the chief architect of the modern world.He answered the ancient philosophical riddles of light and motion; he effectively discovered gravity; he salvaged the terms ‘time’, ‘space’, ‘motion’ and ‘place’ from the haze of everyday language, standardized them and married them, each to the other, constructing an edifice that made knowledge a thing of substance: quantative and exact.Creation, Newton demonstrated, unfolds from simple rules, patterns iterated over unlimited distances. What Newton learned remains the essence of what we know.Newton’s laws are our laws. When we speak of momentum, of forces and masses, we are seeing the world as Newtonians.When we seek mathematical laws for economic cycles and human behaviour, we stand on Newton’s shoulders.Our very deeming the universe as solvable is his legacy. This was the achievement of a reclusive professor, recondite theologian and fervent alchemist.A man who feared the light of exposure, shrank from controversy and seldom published his work.In his daily life he emulated the complex secrecy in which he saw the riddles of the universe encoded.His vision of nature was of its time; he never purged occult, hidden, mystical qualities.But he pushed open a door that led to a new universe.

Who is Sir Isaac Newton or Isaac Newton?
Sir Isaac Newton, often referred to simply as Isaac Newton, was an English mathematician, physicist, and astronomer who is widely recognized as one of the most influential scientists in history. He is best known for his work in formulating the laws of motion and universal gravitation, as well as his development of calculus. Newton's groundbreaking contributions to the fields of mathematics and physics laid the foundation for much of modern science and continue to have a profound impact on our understanding of the natural world.

'How much Newton?'
Newton is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the amount of force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared. One Newton is equivalent to approximately 0.225 pounds of force. It is commonly used in physics and engineering to quantify forces acting on objects.
-
'Einstein or Newton?'
Both Einstein and Newton made significant contributions to the field of physics. Newton's laws of motion and theory of gravity laid the foundation for classical mechanics, while Einstein's theory of relativity revolutionized our understanding of space, time, and gravity. While Newton's work is essential for understanding the motion of objects on Earth, Einstein's theories have broader implications for the nature of the universe. Ultimately, both scientists made invaluable contributions to our understanding of the physical world, and their work complements each other in shaping our understanding of the universe.

How do you calculate Newton?
Newton is calculated by dividing the force acting on an object by the mass of the object. This formula is represented as F = ma, where F is the force in Newtons, m is the mass in kilograms, and a is the acceleration in meters per second squared. By rearranging the formula, you can calculate Newton by multiplying the mass of an object by its acceleration.

What are watt and newton?
A watt is a unit of power, measuring the rate at which energy is transferred or converted. It is commonly used to measure the power of electrical devices and is equivalent to one joule per second. A newton is a unit of force, measuring the amount of force required to accelerate a one kilogram mass at a rate of one meter per second squared. It is commonly used in physics to quantify the amount of force applied to an object.

How big is a Newton?
A Newton is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the force required to accelerate a one kilogram mass by one meter per second squared. In terms of everyday objects, a Newton is roughly the force exerted by a small apple resting in the palm of your hand. It is a relatively small unit of force, but is commonly used to measure the force of everyday objects and activities.
