Almost 80% of CEOs say that their organization must get better at
managing external relationships. According to The Economist, one of
the major reasons why so many relationships end in disappointment
is that most organizations 'are not very good at contracting'. This
ground-breaking title from leading authority IACCM (International
Association for Contract and Commercial Management) represents the
collective wisdom and experience of Contract, Legal and Commercial
experts from some of the world's leading companies to define how to
partner for performance. This practical guidance is designed to
support practitioners through the contract lifecycle and to give
both 'supply' and 'buy' perspectives, leading to a more consistent
approach and language that supports greater efficiency and
effectiveness. Within the five phases described in this book
(Initiate, Bid, Development, Negotiate and Manage), readers will
find invaluable guidance on the whole lifecycle with insights to
finance, law and negotiation, together with dispute resolution,
change control and risk management. This title is the official
IACCM operational guidance and fully supports and aligns with the
course modules for Certification.

This book is intended for everyone in an organization who wishes to
have a basic understanding of information security. Knowledge about
information security is important to all employees. It makes no
difference if you work in a profit- or non-profit organization
because the risks that organizations face are similar for all
organizations. It clearly explains the approaches that most
organizations can consider and implement which helps turn
Information Security management into an approachable, effective and
well-understood tool. It covers: * The quality requirements an
organization may have for information; * The risks associated with
these quality requirements; * The countermeasures that are
necessary to mitigate these risks; * Ensuring business continuity
in the event of a disaster; * When and whether to report incidents
outside the organization. The information security concepts in this
revised edition are based on the ISO/IEC27001:2013 and
ISO/IEC27002:2013 standards. But the text also refers to the other
relevant international standards for information security. The text
is structured as follows: * Fundamental Principles of Security and
Information security and Risk management. * Architecture, processes
and information, needed for basic understanding of what information
security is about. * Business Assets are discussed. * Measures that
can be taken to protect information assets. (Physical measures,
technical measures and finally the organizational measures.) The
primary objective of this book is to achieve awareness by students
who want to apply for a basic information security examination. It
is a source of information for the lecturer who wants to question
information security students about their knowledge. Each chapter
ends with a case study. In order to help with the understanding and
coherence of each subject, these case studies include questions
relating to the areas covered in the relevant chapters. Examples of
recent events that illustrate the vulnerability of information are
also included. This book is primarily developed as a study book for
anyone who wants to pass the ISFS (Information Security Foundation)
exam of EXIN. In an appendix an ISFS model exam is given, with
feedback to all multiple choice options, so that it can be used as
a training for the 'real' ISFS exam.
This pocket guide is the one book to read for everyone who wants to
learn about Scrum. The book covers all roles, rules and the main
principles underpinning Scrum, and is based on the Scrum Guide
Edition 2013. A broader context to this fundamental description of
Scrum is given by describing the past and the future of Scrum. The
author, Gunther Verheyen, has created a concise, yet complete and
passionate reference about Scrum. The book demonstrates his core
view that Scrum is about a journey, a journey of discovery and fun.
He designed the book to be a helpful guide on that journey. Ken
Schwaber, Scrum co-creator says that this book currently is the
best available description of Scrum around. The book combines some
rare characteristics: * It describes Scrum in its entirety, yet
places it in a broader context (of past and future). * The author
focuses on the subject, Scrum, in a way that it truly supports the
reader. The book has a language and style in line with the
philosophy of Scrum. * The book shows the playfulness of Scrum.
David Starr and Ralph Jocham, Professional Scrum trainers and early
agile adopters, say that this is the ultimate book to be advised as
follow-up book to the students they teach Scrum to and to teams and
managers of organizations that they coach Scrum to.
