Summary

Global infrastructure is at a crossroads. Sustainability and climate-resilience imperatives, new geopolitical headwinds, technology and connectivity issues, as well as the ongoing reconfiguration of global value chains, all call for a rethink in how infrastructure is designed, built and maintained. Leading world economic powers are envisaging new infrastructure plans that could fit in new trade and industrial strategies, with the ultimate goal to increase sustainability, economic competitiveness and resilience. Meanwhile, the use of digital technologies entails new risks for the security of critical infrastructure. How are global value chains changing, and how does this affect infrastructure? How could more resilient infrastructure transform economies? How to enhance the quality and sustainability of new and existing infrastructure? And how to safeguard security in critical infrastructure?

  • Benefits Realisation Management - The Benefit Manager's Desktop Step-by-Step Guide - cover

    Benefits Realisation Management...

    Stuart undertook formal Benefits, Programme and Portfolio Management training and has been employed as a Benefits Manager in Projects, Programmes and Portfolio Offices (P3Os) and In-Service/ BaU teams in Public and Private Sector organisations since 2014.
    It took Stuart time to implement effective Benefits Management despite attending formal training because there was no practical guide available, there was varied and competing views on the subject and, a successful approach with support from the organisation was hard to find. Indeed, much time had been spent on circular conversations trying to understand the subject, confusion and language. A structured/ informed guide could have saved significant time and money.
    Stuart used the 'lived experience' to inform this guide and approach so the P3Os and In-Service/BaU teams can see it's practical application. Stuart removes the jargon, gets to the point and, seeks to save time so Benefit Managers can work effectively and at pace and, develop their knowledge and skills using an accepted approach to boost performance.
    Stuart would like to thank all stakeholders who were involved either directly or indirectly, for their interactions, influence and exchanges and a special thank you to Paul Carter for his time and assistance.

    WHY DO SOME PEOPLE ACHIEVE EVERYTHING THEY SET OUT TO DO — WHILE OTHERS STAY STUCK, BUSY, AND BURNED OUT? 
    If you've ever ended a long day wondering where the time actually went, you already know the problem isn't effort. It's habits — the small, invisible routines running your life on autopilot. 
    Highly Successful Habits is not another motivational pep talk. It's a practical, research-backed system for rewiring the daily patterns that separate people who talk about success from people who actually build it. 
    Inside, you'll discover how to:    Break the procrastination cycle sabotaging your goals    Build daily habits for success that actually stick    Master time management and productivity without relying on willpower    Develop the mindset of highly successful people    Design a morning routine that compounds results over time    Overcome self-sabotage and the "almost there" plateau 
    Bonus included: The High Performance Blueprint PDF 
    Tried habit-building before? It never lasted? Most advice fails because it ignores how your brain forms behavior under real-life stress. This one's built for real schedules, not perfect conditions. 
    Whether you're an entrepreneur, a professional climbing the ladder, or simply someone tired of starting over every Monday, this audiobook gives you the tools to finally close the gap between where you are and who you're capable of becoming. 
    Your habits are already deciding your future. The question is: are you choosing them — or are they choosing you? 
    Press play and start building the life your future self will thank you for!

    When Urgent Is a Lie - How to...

    Urgency has a way of entering the room before the facts do. Someone delayed, underestimated, forgot, or changed direction, and suddenly you are expected to rearrange your day. Some deadlines are real. Others are manufactured, inherited, or driven more by anxiety than consequence. When Urgent Is a Lie helps you tell the difference before another person's alarm becomes your automatic command. William R. Stanek offers a clear method for examining what changed, what will actually happen if the request waits, and who has the authority to reorder existing commitments. This is not permission to dismiss important work simply because the timing is inconvenient. It is a way to respond proportionately, make tradeoffs visible, and stop allowing borrowed panic to decide what deserves your best effort.
