Managing Networks in Transition Economies (International Business and Management)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionOver the past twenty years, several countries in Europe, Central and South America and Asia have undergone a transition from a planned economy to a market economy. Some observers have described this process as perhaps the biggest economicexperiment of the last few centuries.

The task of this book is to increase our understanding about how business changes at the micro level during the transition to a market economy. The focus of this book is placed on the Russian market, as Russia is one of the biggest countries currently making the transition.

It presents a case study, which covers the period from 1986 to 1998, and analyses and explains how business networks in Russia have… [detailed...]

Managing Operational Risk in Financial Markets

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Risk Management is one of the biggest issues facing the financial markets today. `Managing Operational Risk in Financial Markets` outlines the major issues for risk management and focuses on operational risk as a key activity in managing risk on an enterprise-wide basis. While risk management had always been an integral part of financial activity, the 1990s has seen the requirement for risk management establish itself as a key function within banks and other financial institutions. With greateremphasis on ensuring that money is not lost through adverse market conditions, counterparty failure or inappropriate controls, systems or people, risk management has become a discipline in its own right. Managing risk is now THE paramount topic within the financial sector. Recurring major losses through the 1990s has shocked financial institutions into placing much greater emphasis on risk management and controls. The collapse of Barings and losses made by Metallgescellschaft,… [detailed...]

Managing Organizational Change: A Multiple Perspectives Approach. Ian Palmer

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Managing Organizational Change, by Palmer/Dunford/Akin, provides managers with an awareness of the issues involved in managing change, moving them beyond `one-best way` approaches and providing them with access to multiple perspectives that they can draw upon in order to enhance their success in producing organizational change. These multiple perspectives provide a theme for the text as well as a framework for the way each chapter outlines different options open to managers in helping them to identify, in a reflective way, the actions and choices open to them. The authors favor using multiple perspectives to ensure that change managers are not trapped by a `one-best way` of approaching change which limits their options for action. Changing organizations is as messy as it is exhilarating, as frustrating as it is satisfying, as muddling-through and creative a process as it is a rational one. This book recognizes these tensions for those involved in managing organizational change…. [detailed...]

Description: Helicopters suggest a range of images, from medical support and military action to traffic reporters and tourism. Unfortunately, in higher education helicopter evokes the image of parents who hover continuously and land when they perceive a need from their college student. Some administrators have even characterized aggressive parents as Black Hawk helicopters. This negative image of parental involvement can prevent college and university administrators from capitalizing on its opportunities. Federal financial policies, parental notification policies regarding alcohol use, the No Child Left Behind Act, and even college students themselves expect parents to be involved. Their experience in elementary and secondary education can make parents a valuable resource, however, administrators are often unsure how best to support the rights of students as adults and at the same time maximize the beneficial influence of parents.
