Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - There is a search in process for a new context and paradigm for the organization of the future-an organization that must be capable of producing high-quality, competitive products that satisfy customers without destroying the planet or degrading human life. The End of Management and the Rise of Organizational Democracy calls for a radical set of organizational development initiatives that will combat the destructive forces of globalization, put an end to authoritarian, paternalistic management, and move organizations toward a new 'organizational democracy.' Kenneth Cloke and Joan Goldsmith detail the practical opportunities, alternatives, and models for these new organizations and challenge leaders to transform their workplace environment into one shaped by a context of values, ethics, and integrity. They reveal how a combination of collaboration, self-management, and organizational democracy can break down long-standing boundaries and foster the far-reaching, sustainable changes critical to success in the twenty-first century.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Eureka' ist eine Sammlung der bemerkenswertesten und unterhaltsamsten Geschichten über die großen wissenschaftlichen Entdeckungen, die die Welt verändert haben. Das Buch setzt die Tradition von 'Hellman's Great Feuds in Science' fort und erzählt ein Dutzend Wissenschaftsgeschichten, die sich allesamt auf die besondere Dramatik des unmittelbaren 'Heureka Moments' gründen, der vielen wissenschaftlichen Entdeckungen gemeinsam ist. Angefangen beim Amateurwissenschaftler Joseph Priestly, der im 18. Jahrhundert auf die Existenz des Sauerstoffs gestoßen ist, jedoch ohne eine wirkliche Ahnung davon zu haben, was er eigentlich gefunden hatte, bis hin zu dem 14-jährigen Fernseh-Pionier Philo Farnsworth, dem die Idee für einen Fernsehbildschirm beim Pflügen der elterlichen Felder in Idaho kam. Unter den hier vorgestellten Wissenschaftlern befinden sich Berühmtheiten wie Darwin, Einstein und Watson Crick, aber auch etwas obskure Persönlichkeiten, wie z.B. der Chemiker Kekulé und der Mathematiker Benoit Mandelbrot. Bei allen Entdeckungen spielten Glück, gutes Timing und ein wacher Geist eine wesentliche Rolle. 'Eureka' - eine ebenso spannende wie unterhaltsame Lektüre.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - China's coastal region between Shanghai and Hong Kong is one of the most dynamic regions in the world, having undergone a transformation widely attributed to economic reform. This insightful account shows that rapid economic growth in China has a history and a geography, and demonstrates how regional restructuring is far from an economic 'miracle'. Instead of a linear historical approach, the analysis shows how history matters in contextualized geographies, in regional places and their transnational connections. The book situates the analysis in the contemporary globalization debates and the most current ideas in human geography to develop a cultural economy perspective that anticipates the 'new regionalism'.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In 1995 The Boundaryless Organization showed companies how to sweep away the artificial obstacles-such as hierarchy, turf, and geography-that get in the way of outstanding business performance.

With new examples, a new commentary on the developments of the last five years, and illuminating first-hand accounts from pioneering senior executives, the authors once again show why 'boundaryless' is a prerequisite for any organization trying to succeed in the economy of the twenty-first century.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This concise historical narrative by a prize-winning Cold War historian covers the entire Cold War period from the Yalta Conference of 1945 to the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991. The book analyzes the Cold War and the various ways that it impacted American life: how it stimulated the economy, was a primary agent of social cohesion (at least until the Vietnam War), greatly inflated presidential power, and was at all times a formidable cultural and intellectual presence. It shows that the Cold War's influence was sometimes palpable, as during the McCarthy years and the Vietnam 'conflict,' and was at other times merely a backdrop, as during the civil rights movement and the loosening of cultural restraints in the 1960s. The book also explores the uneasy co-existence of the era's conservative American political structure and private realm of techno-business volatility and radical popular culture.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book places the practice of supervision firmly within the culture of psychotherapy and counselling. It suggests and demonstrates, through discussion and vignettes, the essential relational requirement of good practice in supervision. It is a practical book for working supervisors, supervisees, trainees in counselling and psychotherapy and, most importantly, for trainers devising training courses for supervisors. Supervision in therapy and counselling is taken into a broad perspective of psychological, ethical and social concerns and the author, Don Feasey, draws upon twenty years of experience as a psychotherapist, in private and public practice, to illustrate his themes.Supervision is seen and described not only as a way of learning, a way of working with a therapist or counsellor to promote the wellbeing of a client, but as a deeply held creative psychotherapeutic relationship, of mutual benefit, between supervisor and supervisee alike.The book has a wide spectrum, examining the origins and social context of supervision; it discusses the place of supervision in training, the use of psychotherapy and counselling supervision in private practice and within NHS settings, it reviews the debate about the nature of supervision as a therapeutic relationship and gives strongly felt attention to issues of ethics. It pays attention to individual and group supervision. The term therapist is used in this book to indicate a broad view of counselling and psychotherapy and its practitioners; creative therapists get special mention. It also sets out to draw together therapists and counsellors, inviting them to share similar concerns in examining the nature of supervision and its place in their professional lives.Finally Don Feasey sets out his own vision of the nature of supervision and defends its place in the therapeutic milieu, arguing that its presentation, primarily, as an educational activity should be treated with reservation. He believes that due consideration must be given to the origins of supervision in the practice of psychoanalytic psychotherapy. He advocates the `Relational Approach` upon which he has based his own work as a supervisor for the past twenty years.The book contains number of valuable short personal accounts of supervision by experienced therapists and counsellors . These may be found at the end of the book in the chapter called Reflections.
