Practical Guide to IT Problem Management

Practical Guide to IT Problem Management

Some IT organisations seem to expend all their energy firefighting – dealing with incidents as they arise and fixing or patching over the breakage. In organisations like this restarting computers is seen as a standard method to resolve many issues. Perhaps the best way to identify whether an organisation understands problem management is to ask what they do after they have restarted the computer. If restarting the computer fixes the issue it is very tempting to say that the incident is over and the job is done. Problem management recognises that things do not improve if such an approach is taken. Such organisations are essentially spending their time running to stay in the same place. Written to help IT organisations move forward Practical Guide to IT Problem Management presents a combination of methodologies including understanding timelines and failure modes drill down 5 whys and divide and conquer. The book also presents an exploration of complexity theory and how automation can assist in the desire to shift left both the complexity of the problem and who can resolve it. The book emphasises that establishing the root cause of a problem is not the end of the process as the resolution options need to be evaluated and then prioritised alongside other improvements. It also explores the role of problem boards and checklists as well as the relationship between problem management and Lean thinking. This practical guide provides both a framework for tackling problems and a toolbox from which to select the right methodology once the type of problem being faced has been identified. In addition to reactive methods it presents proactive activities designed to reduce the incidence of problems or to reduce their impact and complexity should they arise. Solving problems is often a combination of common sense and methodologies which may either be learnt the hard way or may be taught. This practical guide shows how to use problem solving tools and to understand how and when to apply them while upskilling IT staff and improving IT problem solving processes.

Crony Capitalism in US Health Care Anatomy of a Dysfunctional System

Crony Capitalism in US Health Care Anatomy of a Dysfunctional System

The US political system has come to depend upon money too much. The US health care industry spends the most on political lobbying among all the 13 industrial sectors in the US economy. The government regulatory agencies at both federal and state levels have been captured by the health industry interest groups meaning that the regulatory agencies respond to the interests of the industry but not those of citizens. This book employs a broad theoretical framework of crony capitalism to understand US health care system dysfunction. This framework has not been applied before in any serious manner to understand the shortcomings in the US health care system. Specifically the book examines the role of seven key players using this framework - politicians/interest groups pharmaceutical companies private health insurers hospitals/hospital networks physicians medical device manufacturers and the American public. Crony capitalism is a destructive force and is rampant in US health care system causing much waste inefficiencies and malaise in the system. Current efforts and initiatives such as patient-centered medical homes and precision medicine for improving/reforming the system are of mere academic interest and tantamount to taking aspirin to treat cancer. They do not even pretend to address the root cause of the problem namely crony capitalism. Offering prescriptions to fix the U. S. health care system based on a comprehensive diagnosis of the dysfunction this book will be of interest to researchers academics policymakers and students in the fields of health care management public and non-profit management health policy administration and economics and political science. | Crony Capitalism in US Health Care Anatomy of a Dysfunctional System
