John Boulmetis: The ABCs of Evaluation, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The most up-to-date version of the gold standard reference in conducting evaluations

The newly revised fourth edition of The ABCs of Evaluation is an easy-to-read explanation of the concepts and methods of the evaluation process. The author explains what the process offers to people who go through it, how to conduct it properly, and how to draw on its conclusions to improve your workplace. The book also walks you through every step of the evaluation process, answering not just the theoretical question of "Why should we evaluate?" but demonstrating the nuts and bolts of an effective and illuminating evaluation.

Author John Boulmetis presents evidence-based and useful strategies for conducting evaluations, transforming them from something seen by your people as something to "get around" or "get through"-or as something being done "to" them as opposed to "for" them-into an invaluable data gathering and processing tool for organizations of all types and sizes.

Inside the book:

• A comprehensive guide to evaluation for program and project managers who are new to the discipline
• Time-tested and proven evaluation principles and techniques you can apply immediately within your own organization
• How to collect data, set standards, implement an evaluation plan, select an evaluation model, and more

Perfect for managers, supervisors, team facilitators, and data analysts, The ABCs of Evaluation is a step-by-step playbook for conducting useful and effective evaluations in any industry and within organizations of any size.
