Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Academic Paper from the year 2017 in the subject Business economics - Miscellaneous, grade: 80, University of South Wales (Business School), course: Strategic Systems Thinking, Tools and Techniques, language: English, abstract: This essay serves as a critical appraise of the statement: 'Systems thinking essentially seeks to understand phenomena as a whole formed by the interaction of parts' in relation to changing ideas of strategic thinking. It explains how this statement exists within the author's business approach to strategic management. The key themes addressed consist of an analysis of approaches to strategic thinking, systems thinking, complexity perspective - especially the new ways of thinking about strategy, - complex adaptive systems - especially 'Modelling Complexity', and 'The Practice Perspective'.Today's business environment is complex, dynamic, multi-faceted and the environment has a far- reaching impact. As for other organizations, the author's company's environment is a combination of several factors that surround and affect it. Therefore, the management of such environment requires managers to carry out a careful analysis of the entire environment to have a clear understanding on how to position the firm in the industry based on fitting the strategy to the current business environment.The implication is that business managers should scan both the internal and external environment to adopt /develop strategies that they think will make their businesses successful. One of the biggest breakthroughs in how we understand and guide change in our organizations is systems theory and systems thinking. System thinking and strategic thinking are two interrelated terms that deal with examining patterns and lead to decision-making and the planning for execution at the organizational level.To understand how both strategic and system thinking are used in organizations, it will be clearly defined what systems are. To be able to evaluate strategic system thinking and systems tools in an organization, both strategies and systems need to be explicitly defined. This will also lead to an analysis of the complexity of organizational system. …

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Academic Paper from the year 2017 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 78, University of South Wales (Business School), course: Strategic Systems Thinking, Tools and Techniques, language: English, abstract: This paper discusses Gray's statement: 'Before we measure something, we must ask whether we understand what it is we are trying to measure', relating it to business performance management and management information system theories. With today's knowledge of management - which involves the way of organizing humans and the use of computers to manage information systems - the paper highlights the importance of hidden values (intellectual capital) in business success, knowledge and performance management, measurement techniques and challenges as well as how communities of practice are managing to solve real firm's problems and help it meet its goals.It was argued by Gray (2015) that all businesses operate with specific sets of activities that result in their deliverables. The most challenging and important discussion topic, is how these business processes are effectively managed and measured against the firm's objectives, as well as how companies measure the contribution of their intangible assets to business outcomes.Intellectual capital is the intangible assets of an organization resulting from employees' physical efforts, knowledge assets and other results of human innovation and thoughts. Due to firms that have neglected intellectual capital to focus on finance and operations for many years, Leif E. (1991) describes intellectual capital as a hidden value and explains its importance on the company value. Intellectual capital, as argued by some scholars and authors, including Edvinsson, can take many forms.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Decision No One Can Delegate is a biblically grounded and grace-filled appeal to modern leaders, professionals, scholars, scientists, religious seekers, nominal Christians, skeptics, and spiritually distracted readers to face the claims of Jesus Christ personally and without delay.Written with intellectual seriousness, pastoral compassion, and unwavering confidence in Scripture, the book addresses the spiritual condition of people who may possess knowledge, influence, religious experience, moral respectability, or professional success while remaining unprepared to meet God. It respectfully examines religious pluralism, modernism, scientism, moral relativism, church hypocrisy, inherited religion, syncretism, and the false assurance that human goodness can reconcile a sinner to a holy God.Moving carefully from creation and conscience to sin, judgment, grace, and redemption, the book presents Jesus Christ as the eternal Son of God, the Word made flesh, the sinless Saviour, the crucified substitute, the bodily risen Lord, the only Mediator between God and humanity, and the coming Judge. It explains in accessible but theologically precise language the meaning of Christ's atoning death, resurrection, justification, reconciliation, regeneration, repentance, saving faith, assurance, sanctification, and Christian discipleship.At its heart is one solemn truth: many responsibilities can be delegated, but no one can repent, believe, receive Christ, or stand before God on another person's behalf. Salvation cannot be inherited, earned, purchased, negotiated, or secured through religion, morality, achievement, baptism, church affiliation, or good intentions. It is God's undeserved gift, received through repentance toward God and personal faith in Jesus Christ.Without manipulation or sensationalism, this book places the Gospel before the reader with clarity, humility, urgency, and hope. It calls every person to abandon false refuges, trust completely in the finished work of Christ, and receive the forgiveness, righteousness, reconciliation, eternal life, and new beginning that God freely gives to all who truly come to His Son.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - What kind of children are our schools really forming Across many schools today, education is increasingly surrounded by ceremonies, themed events, costly study tours, branded experiences, social-media display, and compulsory extras. Many of these activities appear harmless, enjoyable, or even educational. Yet repeated practices quietly teach children what to love, what to admire, what to expect, and what to associate with success, belonging, and joy.Forming Learners or Consumers offers a serious Christian critique of this growing school culture. Prof. Sixbert SANGWA examines how ordinary educational practices can train children toward consumption, performance, comparison, pleasure-seeking, and dependence on spectacle rather than wisdom, discipline, stewardship, service, and truthful purpose before God.This book does not attack teachers, parents, or schools. It affirms joyful learning, meaningful field experiences, ceremony, play, and community when they are purposeful, proportionate, and curriculum-aligned. Its concern is with excess, misnaming, financial pressure, weak educational justification, ceremonial inflation, and the subtle weakening of parental authority.Drawing from biblical theology, educational philosophy, curriculum theory, consumer-culture critique, child formation, and policy analysis, the book asks hard but necessary questions: Are school activities truly educational or merely entertaining Are children being formed as image-bearers or as consumers Are parents respected as partners or treated mainly as financiers Are Christian schools resisting the spirit of the age or simply baptizing it with religious language Practical and pastoral, this book includes guidance for parents, school leaders, church boards, and Christian educators, along with policy tools for evaluating ceremonies, study tours, compulsory extras, opt-out protections, and curriculum alignment.For readers concerned about Christian education, school culture, parenting, educational stewardship, and the moral formation of children, this book is a timely call to recover education that forms learners for wisdom, purpose, service, and joy before God.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Christian organizations do not merely manage money. They steward resources that belong to God.Stewarding God's Resources: Financial Management for Christian Organizations is a comprehensive guide for pastors, ministry leaders, Christian nonprofit executives, church administrators, board members, donors, Christian entrepreneurs, and students of Christian business leadership who desire to manage financial resources with biblical conviction, professional excellence, and transparent accountability.Built on the truth that "the earth and everything in it, the world and its inhabitants, belong to the Lord" (Psalm 24:1), this book presents financial management as an act of worship, wisdom, governance, mission, and obedience before God. It rejects both careless spirituality that neglects sound financial practice and secular managerialism that separates financial decisions from biblical truth. Instead, it offers a deeply Christian framework for budgeting, fundraising, investing, reporting, compliance, internal controls, and long-term sustainability.The book addresses the real financial challenges faced by churches, ministries, mission agencies, Christian schools, nonprofits, and faith-based organizations. It explains how leaders can develop mission-aligned budgets, build ethical fundraising systems, steward donor relationships, manage restricted funds, evaluate investment decisions, strengthen internal controls, communicate financial information clearly, prevent fraud, and cultivate institutional trust.Readers will find biblical reflection, theological analysis, practical examples, governance principles, case-based discussion, reflection questions, financial checklists, policy tools, and a complete assessment section. The book is designed not only to inform but to form faithful Christian leaders who understand that financial integrity is part of Christian witness.This volume is especially useful for Christian business and ministry education, board training, church leadership development, nonprofit governance, and personal leadership formation. It equips readers to think carefully, act responsibly, and lead organizations that honour God with every resource entrusted to them.In a time when financial compromise, institutional mistrust, donor fatigue, regulatory pressure, and mission drift threaten many organizations, Stewarding God's Resources calls Christian leaders back to biblical faithfulness, transparent stewardship, and sustainable Kingdom impact.

Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Theology - Biblical Theology, grade: 90, Nations University, language: English, abstract: In order to deeply understand who God is, it is always important to understand His attributes, which tell about something that is true of Him. It is important to note, however, that man can hardly understand who God is due to being a limited being. However, God reveals Himself in various ways, such as His Word and His creation, so we can wrap our minds around our awesome Creator and God. Although describing Him may fall short of capturing who He is, God possesses some attributes He has revealed to us so we can know Him.

It will cover a few attributes that inform us about who God is, what kind of God He is and what He is like.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Academic Paper from the year 2020 in the subject Theology - Biblical Theology, grade: 95, Nations University, course: Critical Introduction to the New Testament, language: English, abstract: This paper discusses the application of the New Testament in contemporary life, with particular attention to how to distinguish the universal and limited or specific application of the texts, as well as to provide a solution that reiterates the meaning and the means of salvation. Christians often read the Bible a few verses or a single chapter at a time. As a result, they may overlook the context and draw unwarranted conclusions.The critic, on the other hand, looks for the inconsistencies that inevitably throws him on the track. In this paper, the problem of proving the continuity of the New Testament is approached in a way that ties it together by means of a theme or connectivity. Moreover, since the material is now two thousand years old, modern New Testament students are faced with the problem of application, especially how to understand the original intention behind the New Testament for current human history.However, Jews and Muslims, for their part, are challenged by the question of biblical authority, a problem that confuses many people but presents them with difficulties. In other words, the two overriding questions are what Christians mean by New and Old Testaments and the relationship between them. This problem is compounded by the fact that Jews do not accept the New Testament while Muslims accept both, in theory. However, the common Messianic theme of the two covenants ties them together, so that the evidence points to the meaning of New Testament continuity and integration.…

It begins with a critical review of McCarthy's 'Learning in the Café: pilot testing the collaborative application for education in Facebook' and Thorpe's 'Effective online interaction: mapping course design to bridge from research to practice'. The fact that Facebook has different features that promote student interactions, it was no surprise that 92 % agreed that Café encourages their interaction with their peers.
