Hardback. Condition: New. Der verstärkte Wettbewerbsdruck durch die Globalisierung und die steigende Vernetzung der Weltwirtschaftssysteme konfrontiert Unternehmen immer häufiger gleichzeitig mit mehreren Krisen. Die neue Management-Kompetenz Unternehmen aus solchen Krisen zu führen ist ein wichtiger Wettbewerbsvorteil, der zunehmend auch zum Erfolgsfaktor von Manager-Karrieren wird. Aufbauend auf dem aktuellen Stand der Theorie werden im Buch "3D-Krisenmanagement" multiple Krisen als neue Herausforderung für das Management konzeptionalisiert. Die Autoren entwickeln vor dem Hintergrund ihrer spezifischen Expertise (Top-Management-Berater, Dax-30-Vorstand, Universitätsprofessor) ein innovatives Konzept zur Bewältigung von Krisen in Krisen. Dabei vereinen Sie theoretische Substanz mit praktischen Top-Management-Erfahrungen. Das Buch fasst die wichtigsten Grundlagen des Krisenmanagement prägnant zusammen, illustriert deren Umsetzung in einer Best-Practice Fallstudie und extrahiert Erfolgsfaktoren. Am Fallbeispiel der Lufthansa-Krisenbewältigung der Terror-Attentate vom 11. September 2001 erhält der Leser einzigartige Einsichten in Wechselwirkungen von Krisen und erfolgreiche Krisenmanagement-Entscheidungen. Dabei sind die Entscheidungssituationen und Auswirkungen zeitlich strukturiert und einfach nachvollziehbar aufbereitet. Zudem führen persönliche Erlebnisse und die globale Relevanz des 11. Septembers 2001 zu einer sehr hohen Bearbeitungsmotivation der angebotenen Fallstudienkonzepte. Der modulare Gesamtaufbau des Buches und die unterschiedlichen Aufgabenstellungen und Schwierigkeitsgrade zur eigenen Bearbeitung der Fallstudie (in Managerseminaren oder Vorlesungen) fördern eine individuelle Weiterbildung und nutzenorientierte Anwendung. "Sehr anschaulich vermitteln die Autoren Theorie und praktische Ansätze zur Krisenbewältigung. Die aufgezeigten Wechselwirkungen und konkreten Fallbeispiele beleuchten die Mehrdimensionalität eines erfolgreichen Krisenmanagement." Wolfgang Mayrhuber, Vorstandsvorsitzender der Deutschen Lufthansa AG "Meine Erfahrungen aus zahlreichen Sanierungen zeigen, dass viele Manager Krisen unterschätzen und damit die Existenz ihres Unternehmens aufs Spiel setzen. Die Auseinandersetzung mit dieser Best Practice Fallstudie hilft Krisen abzuwenden oder wirkungsvoll einzudämmen. Lesen und umsetzen!" Walter P. J. Droege, Vorstand, DIC Group AG "Das Buch enthält eine kreative und wichtige Erweiterung der gegenwärtigen Theorie des Krisenmanagement. Die Autoren zeigen mit bemerkenswerter Präzision wie Manager verhindern können, dass Sie in die ,Krise in der Krise'-Falle tappen." Prof. David Schmittlein (Ph.D.), Deputy Dean, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania Das Buch richtet sich an Executives/Nachwuchsführungskräfte, Krisen-/Risiko-Manager und Controller, sowie an Studenten (BWL, MBA etc.) und Dozenten/Trainer von Hochschulen, Akademien, Corporate Universities und Manager-Fortbildungen.

Condition: NEW. Roma: Viella, 2021 9788833138459 I libri di Viella. Arte 11 809 248 p. : ill. col., indice, biografia ; 24 cm. The end of World War I in 1918 meant a radical transformation of Central Europe: the multicultural space of former empires became divided into individual nation-states. This altered all spheres of life, deeply impacting the discipline of art history as well. The cosmopolitan vision of art history developed by figures from the Vienna School such as Franz Wickhoff and Alois Riegl was gradually replaced by new self-referential narratives. This nationalist tendency was reinforced by the division of Europe after World War II. In the wake of Jirí Kroupa's pioneering studies, this volume takes a truly transcultural approach to art produced in the Central European region from the 12th to the 20th century. Freed from national prejudices, a region shaped by the constant movement of people, ideas, and objects emerges.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Hardcover. First UK Edition. Octavo. xvi + 304pp. SUMMARY: "For centuries, hallucinogens have been of great significance in the ideology and religious practices of primitive societies. In fact, the use of psychotropic plants to achieve states of religious ecstasy goes back almost to the beginning of human culture. Furthermore, the content of the psychedelic experience in the West today has been found to be similar to that of the religious pilgrimages of Oriental and aboriginal New World groups. But one fundamental difference overshadows all In the traditional cultures described in this collection of ten essays, the hallucinogenic "trip" is a means to an end--a quest for confirmation of traditional values, for unity with the tribal ancestors. In contemporary Western society, by contrast, it tends to be an end in itself and a rejection of the society's values--perhaps, it has been suggested, because Western drug-users tend to be a-cultural. Clearly, we have much to learn from an objective study of societies with long histories of sanctioned, and controlled, drug use to achieve recognized cultural objectives."
