Understanding Organization as Process: Theory for a Tangled

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hernes, Tor, PUBLISHER: Routledge, Organization takes place in a tangled world, intermeshed by changing markets, products, standards, technologies, institutions and social groups. Coming to grips with the complexity and fluidity of organization and management is a persistent problem for scholars and practitioners alike, which is why process issues have received renewed interest in recent years. This book, aimed at scholars and higher level students, frames some of these issues in novel and instructive ways. Process views have existed since before the early Greek philosophers and have made decisive marks in all sciences. Alfred North Whitehead's classic work is a landmark in process philosophy, and his thinking provides renewed impetus to social scientists in search of an expanded framework of process thinking. Theorists such as Niklas Luhmann, Bruno Latour, Karl Weick and James March have contributed significantly towards a process view of organization. In this book, central aspects of their thinking are interpreted and discussed with the help of a broader canvas of process thinking provided by Whitehead. The comparisons do not only allow for interesting connections to be made between the theorists, but they also enable understanding to be made of the thinking behind their respective works. From the analysis, ideas are suggested for a framework for process-based organizational analysis. Advanced students and academics in sociology, organization studies and management studies will find this book useful in its discussion of such subjects as organization theory, process philosophy and process studies.

The Cabin Crew Interview Made Easy: A behind the scenes look at the SECRET elimination process

ARE YOU READY TO DISCOVER THE TRUTH ABOUT THE SECRET ELIMINATION PROCESS? Do you know that airlines use hidden surveillance and undercover officers to eliminate 90% of unsuspecting candidates as early as possible? and do you know that you are up against a strict set of hidden criterion and secret discriminations? These are just a few of the tactics that airlines use to make sneaky elimination choices during the selection process. By understanding the process from the inside, you can avoid being slaughtered by the underhand tactics, and you can tip the balance of power in your favour, so that you become the one who is doing the screening, not the airline. Within this guide, you will not find pages of information informing you about the duties, history and roster structures, and neither will you find average advice that will have you looking and sounding like everyone else. This book is raw and will take you behind the scenes to reveal secrets that airlines don’t want you to know. The information is universal, revealing how candidates are screened and hired all across the world, from the largest international carriers to the smallest national operators. The information is timeless, so you will not find outdated or irrelevant advice, and, most importantly, it is uncensored. For the first time, you be shown how to avoid the common traps and pitfalls, and the true reasons why no airline will ever tell you why you were unsuccessful in your pursuit. Whether you are a seasoned applicant who is finding yourself frustrated at another unsuccessful attempt or are a new candidate looking forward to your first interview, the insider secrets and step by step guidance will give you a huge lead over the competition.

IC-Process-PC: International Classification of Process in

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Wonca, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, This is the second in a series of four works designed to classify the components of the primary medical care interaction. It has been developed and field tested by the World Organization of National Colleges, Academies, and Academic Associations of General Practitioners/Family Physicians (WONCA) Classification Committee in concert with an ad hoc committee of the North American Primary Care Research Group. The interactions under analysis begin with the initial contact with a health care provider and include each step in the process: diagnostic, therapeutic, administrative, and final disposition or follow-up plans. The first book in the series, ICHPPC-2, coded the diagnostic part of the encounter. The latest volume makes it possible to code, classify, and count such valued and cost-effective modalities as listening, counseling, instructing, and educating patients and their families. Until now these aspects of health care provision have been omitted or downplayed by process analysts, even though they provide among the most instrumental therapeutic interventions. Their classification extends the ability to code for the first time to the efforts of health care personnel on the primary care level.

Defense Policy Choices for the Bush Administration,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: O'Hanlon, Michael E. / Armacost, Michael H., PUBLISHER: Brookings Institution Press, This latest study in the Brookings series on U.S. defense strategy and the defense budget reviews current American military capabilities and offers suggestions for the new administration and Congress. Michael OHanlon makes sense of the hot political topic of military readiness, questions the continued relevance of the current two-war framework for structuring most conventional combat forces, and challenges the wisdom of current plans for the procurement of advanced jet fighters, helicopters, and submarines. The book also focuses on missile defense, other means of homeland defense, the so-called revolution in military affairs, and possible conflicts between Taiwan and China that could involve U.S. forces. Throughout, the author looks for ways to close the gap between the cost of projected U.S. defense forces and the budget actually available to the Pentagon.
