    Chapter 1 Craft, Design and Nostalgia in Modern Japan (2021)
    Taylor & Francis | The Organization of Craft Work | Routledge
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-30
    Description: "This edited book focuses on the organization and meaning of craft work in contemporary society. It considers the relationship between craft and place and how this enables the construction of a meaningful relationship with objects of production and consumption. The book explores the significance of raw materials, the relationship between the body, the crafted object and the mind, and the importance of skill, knowledge and learning in the making process. Through this, it raises important questions about the role of craft in facing future challenges by challenging the logic of globalized production and consumption. The Organization of Craft Work encompasses international analyses from the United States, France, Italy, Australia, Canada, the UK and Japan involving a diverse range of sectors, including brewing, food and wine production, clothing and shoe making, and perfumery. The book will be of interest to students and academic researchers in organization studies, marketing and consumer behaviour, business ethics, entrepreneurship, sociology of work, human resource management, cultural studies, geography, and fashion and design. In addition, the book will be of interest to practitioners and organizations with an interest in the development and promotion of craft work."

    Total quality, public management and critical leadership in civil construction projects (2000)
    Bingley : Emerald
    International journal of quality & reliability management 17 (2000), S. 541-553 
    Details
    ISSN: 0265-671X
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: The effective and efficient use of resources in public project management requires a commitment to driving down costs and exploiting value opportunities. In achieving this, public management, being a civil service, must also be aware of social, political and ethical requirements that can impinge upon strict economic reasoning. Opening public management to market pressures has been criticized as potentially weakening concerns of social justice, but in areas like civil construction, it is vital if procurement, build and operation are to improve. A hypothesis was formulated that uses a total quality perspective to link improvements in project performance with the effective promotion of public interest. This hypothesis - that a total quality orientation can reconcile and enhance economic and public interests - was tested through a survey of major stakeholders in public construction projects. It was found that, by developing a concept of critical leadership to drive through quality commitment, there were cogent reasons for further developing this total quality research.

    Benchmarking UK Government Procurement Performance in Construction Projects (2001)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Measuring business excellence 5 (2001), S. 13-21 
    Details
    ISSN: 1368-3047
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Benchmarking is introduced as a practice of non-financial assessment that promotes continual performance improvement. Its relevance to and possible consequences for the public sector are discussed in relation to a case study in construction procurement. A pilot study investigating the achievements of government clients in construction procurement has identified a need for better client "ownership" of project risk and opportunity. The article argues that benchmarking can provide the vehicle for this "ownership". In conjunction with the clients and HM Treasury, a second stage of project assessment has just been completed and the methods and results described. The aim is to realize consistent, relevant and feasible metrics, co-operatively authored by client practitioners and academics with reference to private construction organizations, that will then be used for purposes of on-going self-assessment at both project and strategic levels.
