Through his meetings with Lenny, Joel rediscovers the wisdom of ancient tales and takes us on a journey into a world of beggars and kings, monks and tigers,… [detailed...]

The Behavior-Based Safety Process: Managing Involvement for an Injury-Free Culture, 2nd Edition

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: The Behavior-Based Safety Process Since the behavior-based approach to accident prevention was launched in 1980 by the author and his associates, safety performance is increasingly prominent on the agendas of many companies. Several powerful factors contribute to this trend. The widespread reorganization of personnel into work-groups that are leaner and more self-directed, the increasing importance of international competition, the growing awareness of critical environmental issues?these and relatedfactors highlight the value of any mechanism that promotes continuous improvement in safety performance. Detailing a step-by-step approach to just such a mechanism for continuous improvement, The Behavior-Based Safety Process is a path-breaking guide that represents an important resource for anyone concerned with performance related issues in the workplace. As the title indicates, the focus is on process versus programs. The reason is simple: off-the-shelf safety imposed from… [detailed...]

The Behavioral Foundations Of Strategic Management (Theories of Strategic Management)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis book argues that assumptions of rationality and market equilibrium are inconsistent with rigorous strategic management research and that strategic management should adopt behavioral assumptions. The author suggests that most scholars in strategic management implicitly adopt a behavioral view by assuming firms can make better or worse decisions, and then trying to understand the characteristics of these decisions. He outlines the basics of a behavioral approach to strategic management, he examines assumptions of rationality and equilibrium and the problems they create, and he considers how a behavioral approach relates to several major strains of strategic management scholarship. Relevant methodological issues are also explored. The book as a whole argues persuasively that a behavioral perspective offers the best foundation for strategic management scholarship. [detailed...]

The Believer, Issue 60: February 2009

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The Believer monthly books and culture magazine is three-time finalist for National Magazine Awards in General Excellence and Design. An amiable yet rigorous forum for books and book criticism, The Believer provides an alternative to the plot summary that has increasingly become synonymous with `book review,` extending the ever-shortening shelf life of new books, reviving interest in books long overlooked, and stressing the interconnectivity of books to pop culture, politics, art, and music. To that end, each issue includes essays on these topics, as well as lengthy interviews with philosophers, politicians, and poets. Nick Hornby has a widely celebrated monthly books column, and Amy Sedaris (and well-known guest-columnists) offers an advice column comprised of hilariously bad advice. The celebrated graphic novelist Charles Burns illustrates the cover each month, and the magazine is littered with illustrations by a wide range of established and emerging artists, with regulars like… [detailed...]

After a brief and apparently casual affair, she decides to go to the United States and marry him. The main narrative then commences in New York in 2002. Joel is 72 and approaching the end of a long and illustrious career as an activist lawyer. He and Audrey live in Greenwich Village and have three adult children: two daughters, Rosa and Karla, and an adopted son, Lenny.

Her most tender feelings appear to be directed towards Lenny, a frequent drug user who is incapable of personal responsibility. Karla, the neglected and under-appreciated oldest child, is a social worker who is married, not very happily, to Mike. They have been trying unsuccessfully to start a family. Rosa works with… [detailed...]
