Levers Of Organization Design: How Managers Use Accountability Systems For Greater Performance And Commitment

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The design of an organisation — the accountability system that defines roles, rights, and responsibilities throughout the firm—has a direct impact on the performance of every employee. Yet few leaders devote focused attention to how this design is chosen, implemented, and adjusted over time. Robert Simons argues that by viewing design as a powerful and proactive management lever—rather than an inevitable outcome of corporate evolution—leaders can maximize productivity across every level of the organisation. Levers of Organizational Design presents a new design theory based on four key yet often underrated categories: customer definition, critical performance variables, creative tension, and commitment to mission.

Levi-Strauss Today : An Introduction to Structural Anthropology

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Robert Deliege`s book provides a concise overview of the monumental work of one of the greatest and most prolific thinkers of the 20th century. Claude Levi-Strauss has had a profound and lasting impact on the course of contemporary anthropology. One could further argue that he has spawned a discipline in and of itself, so widespread has the influence of structuralism been, from linguistics to philosophy to psychology. He had a formative influence on such thinkers as Jean-Paul Sartre, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, also Ernest Gellner, Jean Piaget, Paul Ricoeur and Vladimir Propp, to name but a few. Levi-Strauss` visionary work sparked the debate, criticism and fervour that revived social anthropology at a critical point in the development of the discipline. This reappraisal is essential reading for students and indeed anyone wishing to have a handy introduction to one of the world`s great minds. [detailed...]

Leviathan 4: Cities

2004 y.
Publisher: Night Shade Books
Description: Aguirre`s relatively restrained fourth volume in his World Fantasy Award–winning series showcases 10 literate dark fantasy stories, which may be variously described as surreal, decadent, absurd or horrific. In perhaps the finest tale, Jay Lake`s `The Soul Bottles,` a wealthy man is ruined after his trade in soul bottles, which literally hold the souls of the dead, is proclaimed heretical. His son then goes through a Dickens-like fall into working-class obscurity before achieving financial success, albeit sacrificing much of his humanity along the way. Also memorable are Stepan Chapman`s surreal `The Revenge of the Calico Cat,` a wonderfully detailed piece set in the city where toys go after they die, and Ben Peek`s `The Dreaming City,` in which Mark Twain dreams of an encounter with Cadi, the aboriginal spirit of Australia`s Sydney Harbour, and is moved to write a book in defense of that continent`s native population. Other notable contributors include Michael Cisco, K.J. Bishop and… [detailed...]

Leviathan Three

2004 y.
Publisher: Wildside Press
Description: Postmodern playfulness and solid storytelling intermingle fluidly in this bountiful third volume of the publisher`s genre-bending anthology series. In contrast to previous volumes, whose eclectic contents resisted tidy categorization, the editors have grouped these 21 stories into five different elliptically defined `libraries.` As befits a structural scheme that includes a virtual library of books as yet unwritten and a library whose sole volume changes its contents each time the cover is closed, the selections are dominated by themes of impermanence and transformation. James Sallis`s elegiac `Up` is set in a world where people disappear once they`ve reached the limit of their life`s possibilities, leaving only shadowy outlines to mark their passing. In Jeffrey Ford`s amusingly sentimental `The Weight of Words,` a man hires a scientist who has worked out the chemistry of language to adulterate messages to his ex-wife with expressions of affection invisible to the naked eye.

Leviticus Justice, A Novel

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: On a Sunday night in Albuquerque, New Mexico, twenty-eight year old Steve Garcia got home from his ministerial class at a local church and shot two men to death. One had been renting a room from him. The words from the Bible`s Book of Leviticus saying if a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable were fresh in his ears. And the section had indicated death for anyone caught in the act. ``They must be put to death,`` Leviticus said, and Steve was obsessed. The police arrested him and he was charged with two counts of first-degree murder. His only defense was that God told him to do it. Before the trial, a devout Christian mailed a booklet called ``Juror`s Voting Guide for Serious Christians`` to Christians in the area. Its premise: Christians who were members of a jury should vote based upon the law of God, not the law of man. By coincidence, all Steve`s jurors are Christians. Will they base their decision on the law of God…or the… [detailed...]
