A Carver Policy Governance Guide, Adjacent Leadership Roles. CGO and CEO
Автор: Carver Miriam Mayhew
Год издания: 0000
The Carver Policy Governance Guide series includes six booklets that offer board members a description of John Carver's Policy Governance model of board leadership. Policy Governance enables a board to fulfill its accountability to its organization's «owners,» whether the owners are association members, city residents, company shareholders, or a community of interest. Policy Governance addresses the board's engagement in financial, programmatic, and personnel matters; roles of officers and committees; reporting and evaluation; agendas; and other aspects of the board job. For boards pursuing, or wanting to pursue, the Policy Governance model, Adjacent Leadership Roles: CGO and CEO examines the leadership roles needed in the boardroom and the executive suite. This guide reveals the two important and separate functions that are key to enabling both governance and management to have the benefit of optimal leadership. The Policy Governance model is based on the functions rather than the structure of a governing board. It outlines commonsense principles about governing that fit together into an entire system. The practices of the Policy Governance board, which are consistent with the principles, allow it to control without meddling, focus on long-term organizational outputs, powerfully delegate to a CEO and staff, and discharge its fiduciary responsibility in a visionary, strategic manner. Because the model is a total system, the Carver Policy Governance Guide series offers boards a complete set of principles for fulfilling their various obligations.
Testing SAP R/3
A Manager’s Step-by-Step Guide
Автор: JOSE FAJARDO, ELFRIEDE DUSTIN
Год издания:
Planning, preparing, scheduling, and executing SAP test cycles is a
time-consuming and resource-intensive endeavor that requires participation
from several project members. SAP projects are prone to
have informal, ad-hoc test approaches that decrease the stability of
the production environment and tend to increase the cost of ownership
for the SAP system. Many SAP project and test managers cannot
provide answers for questions such as how many requirements have
testing coverage, the exit criteria for a test phase, the audit trails for
test results, the dependencies and correct sequence for executing test
cases, or the cost figures for a previously executed test cycle. Fortunately,
through established testing techniques predicated on guidelines
and methodologies (i.e., ASAP SAP Roadmap methodology,
IBM’s Ascendant methodology, and Deloitte’s ThreadManager
methodology), enforcement of standards, application of objective
testing criteria, test case automation, implementation of a requirements
traceability matrix (RTM), and independent testing and formation
of centralized test teams, many of the testing risks that plague
existing or initial SAP programs can be significantly reduced.
This book is written for SAP managers, SAP consultants, SAP
testers, and team leaders who are tasked with supporting, managing,
implementing, and monitoring testing activities related to test planning,
test design, test automation, test tool management, execution of
test cases, reporting of test results, test outsourcing, planning a budget
for testing activities, enforcing testing standards, and resolving
defects.
