A Handbook of Management Theories and Models for Office Environments and Services
Author: Rianne Appel-Meulenbroek
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000434206
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Although workplace design and management are gaining more and more attention from modern organizations, workplace research is still very fragmented and spread across multiple disciplines in academia. There are several books on the market related to workplaces, facility management (FM), and corporate real estate management (CREM) disciplines, but few open up a theoretical and practical discussion across multiple theories from different disciplines. Therefore, workplace researchers are not aware of all the angles from which workplace management and effects of workplace design on employees has been or could be studied. A lot of knowledge is lost between disciplines, and sadly, many insights do not reach workplace managers in practice. Therefore, this new book series is started by associate professor Rianne Appel-Meulenbroek (Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands) and postdoc researcher Vitalija Danivska (Aalto University, Finland) as editors, published by Routledge. It is titled ‘Transdisciplinary Workplace Research and Management’ because it bundles important research insights from different disciplinary fields and shows its relevance for both academic workplace research and workplace management in practice. The books will address the complexity of the transdisciplinary angle necessary to solve ongoing workplace-related issues in practice, such as knowledge worker productivity, office use, and more strategic management. In addition, the editors work towards further collaboration and integration of the necessary disciplines for further development of the workplace field in research and in practice. This book series is relevant for workplace experts both in academia and industry. This second book in the series focuses on the role of workplace management in the organization and the tasks that workplace management needs to consider. The 18 theories that are presented in this book and applied to workplace research discuss management aspects from the organization’s perspective or dive deeper into issues related to people and/or building management. They all emphasize that workplace management is a complex matter that requires more strategic attention in order to add value for various stakeholders. The final chapter of the book describes a first step towards integrating the presented theories into an interdisciplinary framework for developing a grand workplace management theory.

Are Generational Categories Meaningful Distinctions for Workforce Management?
Author: National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309677327
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
Headlines frequently appear that purport to highlight the differences among workers of different generations and explain how employers can manage the wants and needs of each generation. But is each new generation really that different from previous ones? Are there fundamental differences among generations that impact how they act and interact in the workplace? Or are the perceived differences among generations simply an indicator of age-related differences between older and younger workers or a reflection of all people adapting to a changing workplace? Are Generational Categories Meaningful Distinctions for Workforce Management? reviews the state and rigor of the empirical work related to generations and assesses whether generational categories are meaningful in tackling workforce management problems. This report makes recommendations for directions for future research and improvements to employment practices.

Astrology Of America
Author: William Noah
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595339042
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 534
Book Description
There are thousands of highly practical and often entertaining astrology books freely available to consumers who have become familiar with the basic parameters of astrology. The authors of these books, and most other astrologers, analyze only the "ten planets"--the sun and the nine planets of our solar system. Author William Noah asserts that this simple method is insufficient because the energy of mankind is not solely captured in the planets. Noah's all-inclusive work serves as a tutorial and reference for the world of asteroids and planets. Of the thousands of asteroids in the universe, Noah has selected twenty key asteroids that are the most relevant to the events, experiences, encounters, and future possibilities of the astrology-interested public. Noah's comprehensive work includes: Charts with meaning and symbolism of zodiac signs and houses Lists of planetary symbolism and meaning Alignment of chart interpretation with the complementary astro-mythic energy characterization of triangular Grand Trine formations depicting the meaning and permanent effect for life momentum Natal charts for every president of the United States Natal charts for popular American celebrities The "Astrology of America" goes beyond analysis of the planets to prepare horoscopes by introducing preselected asteroids into the astrological mix. Noah believes his use of these asteroids, along with planetary placement, builds a framework that identifies the surest way to reach success and meaning in life.

Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
"Diane Stegmeier's landmark findings on workplace behavior in the corporate setting will prove vital in determining workplace strategy over the next ten years." —Prentice Knight, CEO of CoreNet Global "The author takes a truly comprehensive approach to understanding the business barriers to the successful implementation of physical space design. The Critical Influence methodology identifies areas of resistance to change and addresses them, enabling the architectural and design firm to do what they do best—create the appropriate workplace solution." —from the Foreword by Greg Bendis "One of the most difficult aspects of facility management is the inability to link environmental improvements with measurable productivity results. Stegmeier’s observations in this area are based on hard facts and real research, not just abstract theories. Her work is an essential tool for any professional looking to justify facility improvements that can actually support and advance the mission of the organization." —Heidi Schwartz, Editor-in-Chief of Today's Facility Manager Magazine This definitive book on innovations in interior office design offers vital lessons on preventing workplace strategy failure for architects, interior designers, facility managers, and business leaders. It fully explains the author's research on the fifteen Critical Influences on behavior in the workplace, and introduces a practical approach to integrate an organization’s cultural, operational, and environmental elements fostering the desired behaviors to support the company’s business goals when designing an office. The book includes case studies of good design in contemporary interior offices illustrating collaborative workplaces that work.
