Management has been one of the driving forces of the last century, indeed an idea and a language that colonized most other institutions, areas of human activity and walks of life, even those that had until recently been regarded as completely unmanageable, such as art, academia and creativity. Some it supported and others it destroyed, but there are few areas in modern societies that have been untouched by it. What is the meaning of management now almost omnipresent and all-powerful in our current bleak times, in our current state of ‘interregnum’ that is characterized by an increasing sense of insecurity and hopelessness, a time when, paradoxically, the seemingly omnipotent force of management does not seem to work? Does it have a role to play today and in the future? What can it become and whom should it serve when the interregnum is over and a new, hopefully more humane, system begins to dawn? These are some of the questions explored in this timely new book by Zygmunt Bauman, one of the greatest thinkers of our times, architect and Urban Studies professor Irena Bauman, and two organization and management scholars, Jerzy Kociatkiewicz and Monika Kostera.

Manager und Berater m?ssen immer wieder zur Kenntnis nehmen, dass vieles, was in Pl?nen steht, nicht umgesetzt wird – und dass sich dagegen anderes erfolgreich durchsetzt, was nie in Pl?nen festgeschrieben stand. Die Schnittstelle zwischen Planung und Umsetzung entzieht sich offenbar einer rein vern?nftigen Handhabung. Die Antriebskr?fte f?r Innovation liegen zum gr??ten Teil im stillschweigenden Wissen der Organisationen verborgen. Organisationsaufstellungen helfen, die «kollektive Intelligenz» eines Unternehmens zu erschlie?en: in der Praxis gereifte Erfahrung, Intuition, W?nsche und Sehns?chte der Beteiligten – allesamt Erfolgsfaktoren, die oft unterbewertet oder systematisch ausgeblendet werden. In einer Organisationsaufstellung lassen sich auch komplexe Sachverhalte erfassen, abbilden und auf das Wesentliche reduzieren, ohne unzul?ssig zu vereinfachen. H?ufig treten dabei unausgesprochene Regeln zutage, die Mitarbeiter wie F?hrungskr?fte binden und das Unternehmen in seiner Entwicklung behindern. Die erfahrenen Organisationsberater Claude Rosselet und Georg Senoner erl?utern in diesem Buch die Grundlagen der Methode und entwickeln einen Leitfaden f?r ihren Einsatz. An Beispielen zeigen sie, wann eine Organisationsaufstellung angebracht ist, wie man sie mit anderen Interventionsmethoden, sinnvoll kombinieren kann und wie sich die Methode in eine allgemeine Organisationstheorie einf?gt. Die Autoren gehen dabei auf unterschiedliche Settings ein – Teams, offene Gruppen, Einzelcoaching – und demonstrieren jeweils die M?glichkeiten der Intervention, die sich f?r F?hrungskr?fte und Berater ergeben.

In this book the author explains that managers must build human capital and engender employee engagement by managing them almost not at all, by attending instead to the factors and circumstances that make them successful. In other words, managers must play their role from offstage and out of the limelight. Based on a survey of over 16,000 employees, the author presents Towers-Watson' management performance model: Executing tasks, Building relationships and performance capability, and Energizing change. Additionally, managers must create an atmosphere of authenticity and trust.

In the midst of the most severe recession for 80 years there is little need to argue that organizations are beset by dilemmas and paradoxes. Confidence in prevailing business models and in the underlying assumptions underpinning business decisions over many decades has now been shaken. But it is not enough to rail against arrogance and greed. Within their own (flawed) assumptions bankers and corporate leaders were acting rationally. A major reason for the failure to anticipate and warn is that observers of organizations usually tend to view organizations in terms similar to those employed by the people who run them: as rational, sensible and objective, whereas, in fact, they are usually confused and confusing, paradoxical and contradictory entities. Paradox is at the heart of how organizations work (or don’t work) yet the phenomenon has been strangely unstudied. In an age of crisis and uncertainty, dilemmas and paradoxes are especially evident and prevalent. The fascination and the promise of paradox is that there is also a sense that there is a hidden truth entwined within the opposites. This we contend is a challenge for leaders. The ultimate responsibility of leadership is to make sense of these and to handle them in a competent manner. This demands a new mode of leadership. The management of dilemma and paradox it is contended, the essence of leadership today. Paradoxical forces provide a dynamism which, although often experienced as potentially threatening, discomforting and negative can also be exciting, promising and positive. «The assumption that organizations are rational entities is challenged every day in the work environment by a rich reality of asymmetries between conflicting forces, complexity, hidden intentions and paradoxes. Anyone wanting to understand the real forces that govern organizations should read this book. A must read for modern leaders who have the intellectual honesty to lead organisations with open eyes and not with the over simplifications and clich?s of the past»–Giovanni Ghisetti, Director Business Transformation, Coca Cola Enterprises Europe «Storey and Salaman’s description of the paradoxes which characterise leadership today is hauntingly accurate. Their intelligent optimism that those dilemmas can be met is as encouraging as it is challenging for those of us who have to do just that. Having read the insights in this book I now understand how their business advice was always so pertinent».–Andy Street, Managing Director of John Lewis

Innovation is increasingly identified as the critical factor in ensuring economic competitiveness. Departments of state and quasi-governmental organizations in many countries including, Austria, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, The Netherlands, Sweden and the UK, have issued reports and calls to action; but implementation will continue to be problematic unless the points made in this book are taken into account. Drawing on 350 in-depth interviews with senior managers, this book presents an original theory about the characteristics of managers in “good innovative organizations” and “poor innovative organizations”. It pays close attention to the attitudes, understandings, assumptions and interpretations of managers, who are often the ultimate decision-makers when it comes to innovation. The text is supported by real-life, internationally-known cases such as Hewlett-Packard, Zeneca and the BBC, as well as voluntary sector cases such as Oxfam. It is also enriched by substantial and highly revealing quotations from senior managers themselves.

Managing the Aging Workforce is one of the crucial topics for many of the world's enterprises. The increasing average age of populations does not only affect social systems, countries and communities, but also has a strong impact on the work of businesses and companies. The decline in demographic fitness will not only hit countries like the U.S., the Western European countries, or Japan, but also the upcoming societies in China or in the Eastern European countries. In many of these countries, during three or four decades the average age will grow from about 40 years now to about 50 years. Where experts are needed, this may result in an increase of the workforce's age of between 5 and 10 years in only one decade. For companies thus, a number of challenges arise that have to be overcome fast and continuously. The main topics in this field will be new strategies in leadership, new concepts in health management, new ways in knowledge management and learning, as well as new models how to drive ideas for diversity and innovation. On the one hand, enterprises therefore will have to invest in their aging employees for supporting their talents, helping them to learn and keeping them in the company. On the other, they will have to increase productivity, keep on searching for new products, and integrate experts from abroad. This has to be combined with new ways of strategies and HR management. This book presents an analysis of the present and upcoming situation, and an introduction into the strategic concepts enterprises will need to survive in aging societies.

The wild beauty of deserts has always been a source of fascination the world over. Mankind and Deserts 3 – the third and final volume – focuses on wind, frequently present in all deserts, either hot or cold. Wind plays a major role in aridity and landscapes bear numerous forms due to its action, erosion, transportation and surface formations, some discreet and others spectacular, such as vast expanses of towering yardangs. Aeolian dynamics lead to dune formation, simple or associated with sand ridges or ergs, as in the Sahara. Mankind has attempted, to varying degrees of success, to cope with sand accumulation; ignoring aeolian dynamics has led many development projects to failure. This is developed by Yann Callot, a Professor at Lyon University who studied aeolian dynamics in the Sahara.

Traditional societies have adapted to live in deserts, establishing vibrant civilizations with original ways of living, managing water resources and creating routes for trade, especially for salt. In a changing environment, useful lessons can be drawn from the genius of mankind's adaptation to such diverse and fragile environments. This is explained by Marc C?te, who was a Professor at Constantine (Algeria) and Aix-en-Provence Universities.

From ancient, almost mythical, exploration to modern scientific studies, deserts have come to be better known yet still hold great appeal. This book traces the history of their knowledge while providing a basis for understanding their features and the tools needed for their protection, in an ever-changing world.

Si bien se dirige Alicia Stivelberg al empresario, a su pr?xima generaci?n de familia, y muy en especial a las mujeres en esas familias empresarias, sus contribuciones al tema son de principal relevancia para consultores de familias empresarias. Ya sean ?stos financieros, asesores legales, psic?logos o estrategas, sus reflexiones, destiladas de a?os de estudio y pr?ctica profesional,aciertan en educar y concientizar la pr?ctica de estos profesionales dentro del seno de una familia empresaria. Tanto los modelos de la empresa familiar que nos comparte como las perspectivas sobre el cambiante entorno social y tecnol?gico que afrontan, nos pueden guiar, como consultores de estas empresas, tanto en darle prioridad a ciertos temas como en acoplar otros con conceptos que ya utilizamos en nuestra profesi?n. Espero que, como yo, reciban la generosa contribuci?n que hace Alicia Stivelberg a la pr?ctica moderna en la empresa familiar, de tal forma que sus propios diagn?sticos e intervenciones sean apropiadamente sist?micos y sabiamente guiados por la importancia de la compleja, pero potencialmente tan beneficiosa, evoluci?n en la relaci?n familia-empresa.
