Book Synopsis Culture, Leadership, and Organizations by : Robert J. House
Download or read book Culture, Leadership, and Organizations written by Robert J. House and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2004-04-29 with total page 849 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Culture, Leadership, and Organizations reports the results of a ten-year research program, the Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness (GLOBE) research program. GLOBE is a long-term program designed to conceptualize, operationalize, test, and validate a cross-level integrated theory of the relationship between culture and societal, organizational, and leadership effectiveness. A team of 160 scholars worked together since 1994 to study societal culture, organizational culture, and attributes of effective leadership in 62 cultures. Culture, Leadership, and Organizations: The GLOBE Study of 62 Societies reports the findings of the first two phases of GLOBE. The book is primarily based on the results of the survey of over 17,000 middle managers in three industries: banking, food processing, and telecommunications, as well as archival measures of country economic prosperity and the physical and psychological well-being of the cultures studied. GLOBE has several distinguishing features. First, it is truly a cross-cultural research program. The constructs were defined, conceptualized, and operationalized by the multicultural team of researchers. Second, the industries were selected through a polling of the country investigators, and the instruments were designed with the full participation of the researchers representing the different cultures. Finally, the data in each country were collected by investigators who were either natives of the cultures studied or had extensive knowledge and experience in that culture. A unique feature of this book is that while it is an edited book and many experts have written the different chapters, unlike other edited books, it is a fully integrated, seamless, and cohesive book covering the many aspects of the theory underpinning the GLOBE.

Book Synopsis Arte contemporáneo y restauración by : Rosario Llamas Pacheco
Download or read book Arte contemporáneo y restauración written by Rosario Llamas Pacheco and published by Tecnos. This book was released on 2014-05-08 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La conservación y restauración del arte contemporáneo es una disciplina compleja, en constante evolución, y que plantea la necesidad de actualización de los paradigmas sobre los que tradicionalmente se ha venido asentado la conservación de los bienes culturales. Tras varios años de investigación en el área, esta publicación recoge la visión particular de aquellos aspectos que, bajo un acercamiento propio, más sobresalen de una disciplina en continuo desarrollo. En este sentido, se ha descrito la naturaleza material de los objetos que forman el patrimonio reciente, estudiando la doble polaridad de la materia constitutiva del arte contemporáneo, pues es útil para concretar la idea de la obra, y a la vez lleva implícitos una serie de valores semánticos y culturales que la sustancian y dotan de importancia. Por otro lado, se ha realizado un acercamiento teórico y práctico a la disciplina de la conservación y restauración del arte contemporáneo, actualizando el marco deontológico y analizando los distintos sectores de actuación que podemos encontrar en la actualidad, o lo que es lo mismo, abordando las distintas categorías de problemas con las que el restaurador puede tener que enfrentarse: pintura contemporánea, instalaciones, videoarte, arte cinético, eat-art, obsolescencia tecnológica, necesidades específicas de documentación y conservación preventiva para el arte no convencional?
Book Synopsis The North American Mosaic by : Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat
Download or read book The North American Mosaic written by Commission for Environmental Cooperation (Montréal, Québec). Secretariat and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

Book Synopsis Contemporary Theory of Conservation by : Salvador Munoz-Vinas
Download or read book Contemporary Theory of Conservation written by Salvador Munoz-Vinas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-05-23 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical theories of conservation are well known in the heritage community, but in the last two decades thinking has shifted, and classical theory has faced increasing criticism. Contemporary Theory of Conservation brings together current ideas in conservation theory, presenting a structured, coherent analysis of the subject for the first time. This engaging and readable text is split into 3 parts. The first, Fundamentals of conservation, addresses the identity of conservation itself, and problems arising when classical conservation theories are applied. The second part, Questioning classical theories, delves deeper into the criticism of classical ideas such as reversibility. This leads on to the creation of new paradigms such as sustainability, which are covered in the final part of the book, Conservation ethics.
