It has never been more important to show examples of sales skills at work. The process to evaluate these skills is sometimes perceived as straightforward and routine, simply a matter of tracking the sales gains after the program has been conducted. But credibly Measuring the Success of Sales Training programs is a bit more involved than that. Experts in the practice of ROI measurement, Jack and Patricia Phillips have collected a new book of ROI case studies, with a focus on sales training programs. The case studies presented in this book demonstrate how to use of the ROI Methodology to properly measure the results of sales programs. These studies come from all over the world, in many different disciplines and concentrations, from financial services to the public sector. The use of the ROI Methodology addresses issues that are sometimes omitted from other casebooks. First, since many other factors influence sales, there must always be a step to isolate the effects of the sales training program on the sales (each study features this step). Second, when converting to monetary value, only the profit margins of increased sales must be used, not the sales themselves—a mistake made by many. Third, the stream of monetary benefits for the increased profits must be conservative, usually representing only one year. Sponsors need a credible, conservative approach to measuring ROI—one that meets these challenges. All of the case studies in this book will address these issues, providing examples and benchmarks for others to use to evaluate these important types of programs.

In an environment of scarce resources and rising federal deficits the people not only expect, but demand greater accountability for the spending of public funds. This demand has created a trend in the public sector, not only in the United States, but worldwide as well, towards the importation of private sector business practices to improve accountability-oriented analysis. One example is increased emphasis on return on investment (ROI) analysis in public sector organizations. Development and application of ROI analysis is challenging in the public sector since most government organizations do not generate profit necessary for calculation of ROI in the manner in which it is done in the private sector. This thesis develops the methodology necessary for use of ROI analysis in the public sector. ROI methodology is applied for test evaluation with the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR) in San Diego. The test demonstrates that ROI can be applied successfully to assess the relative efficiency of value-added work and to improve the process of choosing between investment alternatives. Properly designed ROI analysis reveals how and for what goods and services money is spent and provides a means for comparing the value derived from investment and work performed.

Using the most successful evaluation system in the world for measuring impact and ROI—the ROI Methodology—learn how to measure the success of all business programs and projects involving environmental initiatives, health-related programs for employees and citizens, and various safety programs in all types of settings Few topics are more important than the health and safety of employees, associates, and citizens. Organizations focus a tremendous amount of money/resources on maintaining a zero-harm approach to its employees, the greater community, and the surrounding environment. At the same time, organizations are implementing many types of wellness and fitness programs ensuring that employees remain healthy, safe, and productive. Measuring ROI in Environment, Health, and Safety shows how to measure the success of all types of programs and projects involving environmental initiatives, health-related programs for employees and citizens, and various safety programs in all types of settings. Environmental efforts, or green projects, can represent value for organizations. Eighty percent can deliver a positive ROI, and the other 20 percent are often required by regulation. In either case, it is critical to understand whether or not these projects are working. This new book will show step-by-step how to measure the success of many types of green programs. Within an organization, responsibility for environment, health, and safety is often under the direction of the same executive team. Their concern is always about how well the programs are working and, more importantly, what can be done to ensure that they are more successful. ROI in Environment, Health, and Safety introduces the ROI Methodology, now used by over 4,000 organizations, and the most successful and utilized evaluation system in the world for measuring program impact and ROI. It shows step-by-step how to capture the reaction to the various initiatives and programs a firm may institute, the learning necessary to make them successful, progress in terms of application and implementation, the specific business impact measures driven by these programs, and, finally, the financial ROI. Along the way, data is collected for process improvement to ensure that if certain programs are not working, they can be adjusted for success.

A multidisciplinary collection on global public entity strategic communication Research into public sector communication investigates the interaction between public and governmental entities and citizens within their sphere of influence. Today’s public sector organizations are operating in environments where people receive their information from multiple sources.

Public sector organizations need to develop “communicative intelligence” in balancing their institutional agendas and aims of public engagement. The Handbook of Public Sector Communication is the first comprehensive volume to explore the field. This timely, innovative volume examines the societal role, environment, goals, practices, and development of public sector strategic communication. International in scope, this handbook describes and analyzes the contexts, policies, issues, and questions that shape public sector communication. An interdisciplinary team of leading experts discusses diverse subjects of rising importance to public sector, government, and political communication. Topics include social exchange relationships, crisis communication, citizen expectations, measuring and evaluating media, diversity and inclusion, and more. Providing current research and global perspectives, this important resource: Addresses the questions public sector communicators face today Summarizes the current state of public sector communication worldwide Clarifies contemporary trends and practices including mediatization, citizen engagement, and change and expectation management Addresses global challenges and crises such as corruption and bureaucratic roadblocks Provides a framework for measuring communication effectiveness Requiring minimal prior knowledge of the field, The Handbook of Public Sector Communication is a valuable tool for academics, students, and practitioners in areas of public administration, public management, political communication, strategic and organizational communication, and related fields such as political science, sociology, marketing, journalism, and globalization studies.

Summary "Critical Thoughts From A Government Perspective" illustrates a broad picture that is grounded in the realities of day to day issues faced by public sector managers in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. The chapters in the book examine the main areas of importance for public sector leaders; they have been grouped into four distinct categories: strategic management, organisational performance, e-government and national identity. The objective of "Critical Thoughts From A Government Perspective" is to: help augment recent public sector development efforts in the GCC; contribute to the advancement of research on the GCC; and serve as knowledge building tools for those interested in learning about public sector management practices in GCC countries. Key Features Many books about the GCC governmental sector are typically written from either a purely academic perspective or present a small subset of available research, thereby failing to capture critical management issues and considerations. Therefore, "Critical Thoughts From A Government Perspective" not only embodies insights based on extensive research but also the collective insights of numerous senior government practitioners. "Critical Thoughts From A Government Perspective" has been written from a philosophical 'mind-set' in the sense that if we need to improve our organisations and thereafter our nations, we need to be transparent when we share knowledge and practices. "Critical Thoughts From A Government Perspective" is easy-to-read and is highly practical. The Author Dr Al-Khouri is the Director General (Under Secretary) of the Emirates Identity Authority: a federal government organisation established in 2004 to rollout and manage the national identity management infrastructure program in the United Arab Emirates. Contents Strategic management Public value and ROI in the government sector Strategy development at Emirates Identity Authority Targeting results: lessons learned from the UAE National ID Program Re-thinking enrolment in identity card schemes Organisational performance Improving organisational performance through understanding human motivation Succeeding with transformational initiatives E-government Supporting e-government progress in the UAE National identity Population growth and governments' modernisation efforts: the case of GCC countries
