Abstract

His book is the first practical, hands-on guide that shows how leaders can build psychological safety in their organizations, creating an environment where employees feel included, fully engaged, and encouraged to contribute their best efforts and ideas. Perhaps the leader's most challenging task is to increase intellectual friction while decreasing social friction. When this doesn't happen and it becomes emotionally expensive to say what you truly think and feel, that lack of psychological safety triggers the self-censoring instinct, shuts down learning, and blocks collaboration and creativity. Timothy R. Clark, a former CEO, Oxford-trained social scientist, and organizational consultant, provides a research-based framework to help leaders transform their organizations into sanctuaries of inclusion and incubators of innovation.

Abstract

Dit boek gaat over cultuurverschillen en hoe zij van invloed zijn op management en het bedrijfsleven in het algemeen. De auteurs willen aantonen dat managementstrategieën niet algemeen toepasbaar zijn door het verschil in culturen. Doel is een beter begrip van eigen cultuur te krijgen, te leren cultuurverschillen te herkennen en er mee om te gaan. Onderwerpen daarbij zijn: wat betekent culturele diversiteit, de ervaring van tijd en omgeving in verschillende culturen en de gevolgen, de invloed van heersende opvattingen over mensen, tijd en omgeving op het bedrijf, voorbereiden op internalisatie. In de bijlagen: technische aspecten van de Trompenaars-databank en vragen en antwoorden om de bedrijfscultuur te bepalen.(Bron: Biblion)

Abstract

During the Soviet era, blat-the use of personal networks for obtaining goods and services in short supply and for circumventing formal procedures-was necessary to compensate for the inefficiencies of socialism. The collapse of the Soviet Union produced a new generation of informal practices. In How Russia Really Works, Alena V. Ledeneva explores practices in politics, business, media, and the legal sphere in Russia in the 1990s-from the hiring of firms to create negative publicity about one's competitors, to inventing novel schemes of tax evasion and engaging in "alternative" techniques of contract and law enforcement.Ledeneva discovers ingenuity, wit, and vigor in these activities and argues that they simultaneously support and subvert formal institutions. They enable corporations, the media, politicians, and businessmen to operate in the post-Soviet labyrinth of legal and practical constraints but consistently undermine the spirit, if not the letter, of the law. The "know-how" Ledeneva describes in this book continues to operate today and is crucial to understanding contemporary Russia.
