A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

The theme of this book is that any management approach for the development of commercial aircraft should seek to integrate the strengths of state-of-the-art management disciplines while limiting their application to some basic essentials. It explores the interconnectedness between individual management disciplines by explicitly considering the matter of integrative management.

His objective within this role is to improve project and programme management culture across Airbus, developing and delivering lean, efficient and pragmatic processes, methods and tools.
