Par Christian Holzer. 2013
Work-Life-Balance bedeutet viel mehr als den Ausgleich zwischen Beruf, Familie und Privatleben. Sie umfasst betriebliche Rahmenbedingungen, Führungskultur und persönliche Einstellungen,…
abzulesen am besseren Unternehmensimage, erfolgreicherem Recruiting, weniger Personalfluktuation und Krankenstand, langfristig auf hohem Niveau arbeitenden Führungskräften, besserer Widerstandsfähigkeit des Unternehmens gegenüber kritischen Situationen und zufriedeneren Kunden. Für die Mitarbeiter heißt das höhere Leistungsfähigkeit, Produktivität und Motivation aus sich heraus durch die Ausgewogenheit von Arbeit, Gesundheit, sozialen Beziehungen, Zeit für sich und Sinn. Auf dieser Basis entwickeln Unternehmen eine unvergleichlich stärkere Kraft als über Druck, Kontrolle oder andere klassische Führungselemente. Wie eine solche Wirkung zu erreichen ist, veranschaulicht Christian Holzer verständlich durch viele authentische Modelle der Work-Life-Balance, untermauert durch Praxisbeispiele aus Karrierecoachings, Betriebsberatungen und eigener Führungserfahrung. Dabei führt er den Leser von den psychologischen Grundlagen und dem Wert von Intuition, Empathie und Zeitsouveränität über Führung und Projektmanagement bis zu Unternehmenskonzepten und praktischen Maßnahmen. Mit mehr als 400 PRAKTISCHEN TIPPS AUS 50 THEMENBEREICHEN DER WORK-LIFE-BALANCE dient dieses Buch als Ideenpool für übergreifende und individuelle Programme und Aktivitäten im Rahmen sozialer Nachhaltigkeit, für das Employer Branding und die Personalentwicklung. Der Zugang zum Thema erfolgt dabei über die Betriebs- und die persönliche Ebene. Damit findet es bei Führungskräften genauso Anklang wie in HR- und Marketingabteilungen, aber auch bei Beratern. Christian Holzer ist Karrierecoach und Unternehmensberater. Er arbeitet für Unternehmen und Hochschulen, hat in den letzten Jahren mehr als 350 Karrierecoachings und Work-Life-Balance-Seminare durchgeführt und ist Moderator der Sendung "Fair Play" der Radiofabrik Salzburg. "Christian Holzer setzt sich wohltuend ab von der 'Wenn-du-dein-Leben-richtig-steuerst-geht`s-dir-gut-Literatur' und vielen bisher veröffentlichten praktischen, kaum imitierbaren Beispielen aus Unternehmen, die aufgrund ihrer besonderen Situation im Markt Work-Life-Balance für ihre MitarbeiterInnen leichter anbieten können als andere." (Johannes Gutmann, SONNENTOR)Vertebrate Palaeontology
Par Michael J. Benton. 2013
Vertebrate palaeontology is a lively field, with new discoveries reported every week… and not only dinosaurs! This new edition reflects…
the international scope of vertebrate palaeontology, with a special focus on exciting new finds from China. A key aim is to explain the science. Gone are the days of guesswork. Young researchers use impressive new numerical and imaging methods to explore the tree of life, macroevolution, global change, and functional morphology. The fourth edition is completely revised. The cladistic framework is strengthened, and new functional and developmental spreads are added. Study aids include: key questions, research to be done, and recommendations of further reading and web sites. The book is designed for palaeontology courses in biology and geology departments. It is also aimed at enthusiasts who want to experience the flavour of how the research is done. The book is strongly phylogenetic, and this makes it a source of current data on vertebrate evolution.Techniques for Virtual Palaeontology (Analytical Methods in Earth and Environmental Science)
Par Mark Sutton, Russell Garwood, Imran Rahman. 2014
Virtual palaeontology, the use of interactive three-dimensional digital models as a supplement or alternative to physical specimens for scientific study…
and communication, is rapidly becoming important to advanced students and researchers. Using non-invasive techniques, the method allows the capture of large quantities of useful data without damaging the fossils being studied Techniques for Virtual Palaeontology guides palaeontologists through the decisions involved in designing a virtual palaeontology workflow and gives a comprehensive overview, providing discussions of underlying theory, applications, historical development, details of practical methodologies, and case studies. Techniques covered include physical-optical tomography (serial sectioning), focused ion beam tomography, all forms of X-ray CT, neutron tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, optical tomography, laser scanning, and photogrammetry. Visualization techniques and data/file formats are also discussed in detail. Readership: All palaeontologists and students interested in three-dimensional visualization and analysis. New Analytical Methods in Earth and Environmental Science Because of the plethora of analytical techniques now available, and the acceleration of technological advance, many earth scientists find it difficult to know where to turn for reliable information on the latest tools at their disposal, and may lack the expertise to assess the relative strengths or limitations of a particular technique. This new series will address these difficulties by providing accessible introductions to important new techniques, lab and field protocols, suggestions for data handling and interpretation, and useful case studies. The series represents an invaluable and trusted source of information for researchers, advanced students and applied earth scientists wishing to familiarise themselves with emerging techniques in their field. All titles in this series are available in a variety of full-colour, searchable eBook formats. Titles are also available in an enhanced eBook edition which may include additional features such as DOI linking, high resolution graphics and video.Radiance: Creative Mitzvah Living
Par Danny Siegel. 2020
The Selected Prose and Poetry of Danny Siegel This first anthology of the most important writings by Danny Siegel, spanning…
and renewing fifty years of his insights intersperses soulful Jewish texts with innovative Mitzvah ideas to rouse individuals and communities to transform our lives, communities, neighborhoods, and world. As a renowned teacher Siegel describes the creative—often startling—ways individuals from different walks of life have brought compassion into the world, recognizes them as Mitzvah heroes, and suggests how we can apply their life lessons. He also plumbs how giving enriches living and presents Jewishly informed best principles for doing more world repair (Tikkun Olam). As a scholar of rabbinic literature Siegel offers translations and commentaries on Jewish texts illuminating Tzedakah, values, caring, and leadership. In addition he tops off a half-century of his thought with five new essays reflecting on his visions for a better world. The selected poetry asks religious and theological questions in the face of oppression and war, gives voice to personal moments often neglected by ritual, and exults at the wonders of modern Israel and the revelation of love. Both inspirational and pragmatic, this anthology offers practical guidance on using Siegel&’s classic and novel works in personal living and in Jewish organizational settings. Ultimately, in exploring the dynamic interaction between heroes, texts, and ourselves, Siegel seeks to engage each of us in discovering our own radiant potential for creative Mitzvah living.Dad Jokes for New Dads: Embarrass Your Kids Early!

Par Bronwen Wallace, Carolyn Smart. 2020
Bronwen Wallace was recognized in the last decade of her short life as a major Canadian poet and a significant…
figure in the growth of the feminist movement. The author of five collections of poetry and a book of short fiction, most of which have been out of print for decades, Wallace worked in a range of poetic styles in a voice as intimate as a conversation between friends. Offering the full breadth of this celebrated poet's output in a single, long-awaited volume, Collected Poems of Bronwen Wallace brings the text of all five published collections back into print alongside unpublished poems from earlier in her career, allowing readers to see the stylistic evolution of her poetry from its first incarnation to her last written work. In an engaging and often moving tone, the poems draw the reader in even as they document the poet honing her craft during the turbulent 1970s and reveal her fascination with the politics of the personal, the everyday concerns of ordinary people, and inequality and violence. Carolyn Smart's introduction and notes supplement the collection, along with a bibliography that catalogues the scholarly and literary responses to Wallace's work for the first time. An exhilarating reading experience, Collected Poems of Bronwen Wallace celebrates the clarity, humour, righteous anger, and inclusivity of Wallace's poetry, which remains timely and original thirty years after her death.Zukunftssicherung durch HR Trend Management: Personalarbeit auf den richtigen Kurs bringen

Par Mishal Husain. 2018
Acclaimed BBC anchor, Mishal Husain, inspires, champions, and encourages women to make their ambitions a reality by focusing on practical…
skills they can use throughout their careers, whether they are new graduates, working mothers, re-entering the workforce, or simply seeking a career change.When women are offered new opportunities, they often hesitate because of doubt—doubt that they are good enough or have the abilities to succeed. Mishal Husain has reached the pinnacle of her field, yet the British news presenter almost didn’t take her dream job because of doubt, and it took three years before she felt truly comfortable in her position. While men focus on advancement, women feel pressured to prove themselves. “It is clear that we need some better ideas about how more women can advance to levels comparable with men,” Husain writes. The Skills offers insight, practical knowledge, and encouragement to help women thrive.Husain begins with a frank overview of where women are socially and professional today, and identifies the factors that influence how others perceive us—and how we think about ourselves. Drawing on her own experience and knowledge, along with interviews with experts and inspirational figures from Martha Lane Fox to Malala Yousafzai, The Skills explains:How to present yourself to maximum effect, in person and onlineHow to prepare for big moments and plan for long-term goalsHow to gain confidence and authorityHow to use your voice and body language effectivelyHow to navigate the ups and downs of a long working life, from engineering quick wins to building resilience Wise, down-to-earth, and filled with vital advice, The Skills guides women in honing the abilities they need to thrive in whatever field they choose.The Racing Tribe: Portrait of a British Subculture
Par Kate Fox. 2005
It is generally assumed that anthropologists do their research in remote and uncomfortable parts of the world--places with monsoons, mud…
huts, and malaria. In this volume, social anthropologist Kate Fox has taken on an altogether more enjoyable assignment, the study of the arcane world of British horseracing. For Fox, field research meant wandering around racetracks in a pink hat and high heels (standard tribal costume) rather than braving killer insects and primitive sanitation. Instead of an amorphous racing crowd, the author finds a complete subculture with its own distinctive customs, rituals, language and etiquette. Among the spectators, she identifies Horseys, Addicts, Anoraks, Pair-Bonders, Day-Outers, Suits, and Be-Seens--all united by remarkable friendliness and courtesy. Among the racing professionals, the tribal structure includes Warriors (jockeys), Shamans (trainers), Scribes (journalists), Elders (officials and stewards) and Sin-Eaters (bookies). Fox includes witty and incisive descriptions of the many strange ceremonies and rituals observed by racegoers--the Circuit Ritual, Ritual Conversations ("What do you fancy in the next?") , Celebration Rituals, the Catwalk Ritual, and Post-Mortem Rituals (naturally, a horse never loses a race because it's too slow)--and their special codes of behavior such as the Modesty Rule, the Collective Amnesia Rule, and the Code of Chivalry. The Racing Tribe is also a refreshingly candid account of anthropological fieldwork, including all the embarrassing mistakes, hiccups, short-cuts and guesswork that most social scientists keep very quiet about.Supervision in the Legal Profession
Par Michael John McNamara. 2020
This book is about supervision in the legal profession with a focus on the experience of novice lawyers. It is…
the first of its kind. Until now there have been a range of books dedicated to professional supervision in many disciplines, but not law. Supervision is an important link between formal university-based legal education and independent practice and is relevant to a range of contemporary legal practice issues including changes driven by technology, workplace culture, regulating law firm management, and well-being. This book aims to be scholarly and practical. It provides an overview of how supervision is positioned in the legal regulatory framework; it describes how supervision is conceived in the legal profession and practice management literature; and draws lessons from clinical legal education and other professional disciplines. By reporting on survey data, this book also provides insights into practitioners’ attitudes and perceptions about supervision in legal practice.Zukunft der Weiterbildung: Die Anforderungen von heute und morgen (Fit for Future)

Par Meryl Bushell, Kim Hoque, Deborah Dean. 2020
As we begin the third decade of the twenty-first century, women have entered the workplace in unprecedented numbers, are now…
outperforming men in terms of educational qualifications, and are excelling across a range of professional fields. Yet men continue to occupy the positions of real power in large corporations.This book draws on unique, unprecedented access to Chairs of FTSE 350 Chairs, boardroom aspirants and executive head-hunters, to explain why this is the case.The analysis it presents establishes that the relative absence of women in boardroom roles is not explained by their lack of relevant skills, experience or ambition, but instead by their exclusion from the powerful male-dominated networks of key organisational decision-makers. It is from within these networks that candidates are sourced, endorsed, sponsored, and championed. Yet women’s efforts to penetrate these networks are instead likely to trap them into network relationships that will be of little value in helping them to fulfil their career aspirations.The analysis also identifies why women struggle to gain access to these networks, and in doing so, it demonstrates that the network trap in which women find themselves will not be overcome simply by encouraging them to change their networking behaviours. Instead, there is a need for a fundamental reconsideration of how boardroom recruitment and selection is conducted and regulated, to ensure the development of a more open, transparent and equitable process.Mitarbeiter im Verkauf sind Siegertypen und bereit, bis an die Grenzen ihres körperlichen und psychischen Potenzials zu gehen.

Par Beatriz Hausner. 2020
Juxtaposing the diction of surrealism with Ovid, Callimachus, and popular music—punk and new wave—the poems in Beloved Revolutionary Sweetheart concern…
themselves with various aspects of Eros.From wistful romance to explicit sex, these poems are inspired by the troubadour poets of Provence and Italy, and invoke such historical figures as the Byzantine Empress Theodora and her husband, Emperor Justinian, not to mention the Countess of Dia—Beatriz—a major poet of the troubadour tradition; these are Hausner's "alter voices," expressing permutations of presence, absence, conquest, and loss.Beloved Revolutionary Sweetheart reaches back through the millenia to create an unexpected, unconventional, and contemporary exploration of one of humanity's oldest pleasures.You're Mom: A Little Book for Mothers (And the People Who Love Them)
Par Liz Climo. 2020
