Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Central and Eastern Europe

A Multidisciplinary Approach Beyond Borders

&lt;p&gt;The importance of being complex.- Why Central and Eastern Europe?.- Beyond Borders.- Tensions and Contradictions.- Our Standpoint as Editors.- Data and methods.- Attitudes and migration: Contemporary trends in Central and Eastern Europe.- Long-term changes in attitudes and migrant population in Central and Eastern Europe.- Methodology: narrative literature review.&lt;/p&gt;

Project Stakeholder Engagement provides concepts and frameworks that can help the reader gain insights into a project's stakeholders, and how to engage them. It also gives suggestions for how to identify and understand stakeholders, and how to create an engagement plan with communication and other activities.Readers will gain essential skills to drive project success by learning to systematically analyse stakeholders and develop targeted engagement strategies. The book delivers these benefits through research-based frameworks illustrated with real-world examples, mini-cases highlighting key concepts, and comprehensive case studies bridging theory and practice. Written primarily for undergraduate and postgraduate students in project management and business administration, this book is equally valuable for practising project managers, consultants, and executives seeking to enhance their stakeholder engagement skills. It's particularly relevant for courses in project management, project stakeholder engagement, and value creation.Supporting materials include PowerPoint slides summarizing key frameworks and an instructor's manual with teaching notes for case studies, facilitating effective classroom discussion and application of the book's principles.

Die Rufe nach einem umfassenden Arbeitnehmerdatenschutz sind mit den jüngsten Datenschutzskandalen in deutschen Konzernen wieder lauter geworden. Ein eigenes Arbeitnehmerdatenschutzgesetz lässt aber weiter auf sich warten. Auch die geltenden Regelungen lassen den Arbeitnehmer jedoch nicht schutzlos. Der Schwerpunkt des Praxishandbuches liegt daher in der Darstellung des Datenschutzes im Arbeitsverhältnis und seiner praktischen Umsetzung. Die Autoren zeigen Unternehmen, Rechtsanwälten und anderen Interessierten auf, welche datenschutzrechtlichen Probleme sich in den Phasen des Arbeitsverhältnisses (Begründung, Durchführung und Beendigung) stellen und wie in der Praxis mit ihnen umgegangen werden kann.

Praxishandbuch Datenschutz im Arbeitsverhältnis

This book integrates people management trends, practices, concepts, and principles from an experienced lens, with theoretical and practical aspects of managing the employee experience in the workplace. It brings a fresh perspective of managing employees with relevant case-lets, snippets, exercises, fireside chats with industry experts, and self-assessment tools, all set in varying contexts.This volume is meticulously designed through an input-output approach, addressing the methodological process of managing employee experience. This diverse content reflects the multifaceted challenges encountered in real-world scenarios. Adopting a simple, engaging conversational tone, it makes even the most complex topics accessible to readers, especially those with little to no background in people management. The book acts as a bridge, connecting theoretical knowledge with practical application, thereby equipping future leaders with the necessary skills to excel in the dynamic landscape of employee experience management.This volume would be an indispensable resource for students, researchers, practitioners, and teachers specializing in Employee Engagement, Talent Management, Human Resource Management, Organizational Behaviour, and General Management. Its comprehensive approach not only educates but also prepares readers for real world challenges, making it an essential tool for aspiring business managers and corporate leaders.

Museums today are facing complex challenges due to changes in digital technologies, global migration and increasing demands as regards collaboration and societal relevance from principals. The range of services and activities expected of and at museums is today broader, demanding increasingly diversified competence at a time when economic conditions for museums have not radically changed. Thus, pressure is put upon museums to strategically approach their competence needs, and to actively manage competence for the future, in order to secure long-term organisational goal achievement.&nbsp;
 &nbsp;
This book addresses the lack of research on strategic management and development of museums by defining, mapping and discussing competence management practices, based on research and a comparative case study across four museums in Sweden. This book offers both museum practitioners, students and researchers an elaboration on both research on competence management and provision in general and how this is currently practiced in the museum sector, something which is largely overlooked in comprehensive museum management books.

"An engaging and thought-provoking read. 
 Purposeful Capitalism
 makes a compelling case that corporate profit is not the enemy of human progress. Blending economic history with vivid storytelling, Qian provides an insightful perspective on how business leaders can align strategy, competitive advantage, and sustainability to create value for both society and shareholders."

 , best-selling author of 
 For Profit: A History of Corporations
 “
 Purposeful Capitalism
 offers a clear-eyed examination of how companies can create long-term value while addressing real societal needs. Through rigorous case studies and a practical framework, Qian shows that purpose and profitability are strongest when grounded in strategy and discipline. This is a thoughtful contribution for business leaders and investors navigating today’s complex environment.”

 In today’s polarising world, businesses frequently face competing demands from across the political spectrum. Progressives are pushing companies to minimise environmental footprints and enhance diversity, equity and inclusion, while conservative activists are labelling those initiatives as “woke” and urging executives to focus solely on profit maximisation.&nbsp;
 How should corporate leaders navigate this volatile landscape? 
 Purposeful Capitalism
 charts a path forward, centred on the idea of profitable problem-solving. Drawing on lessons from fourteen well-known companies across industries and countries, this book argues that businesses must promote human progress by tackling societal challenges. This requires harnessing the best elements of capitalism, including the ability to attract investment and motivate people through financial rewards. Profit, when it stems from value-creating activities rather than a myopic obsession with financial engineering, should be celebrated, not vilified.&nbsp;
 Engaging and insightful, the book introduces a new framework — the Sustainability Flywheel — which explores how strategy, business models, and sustainability factors interact to create financial value. It shows that good intentions don’t guarantee commercial success. Instead, business leaders must focus on material issues aligned with their strategy and competitive advantage. The result is a more nuanced perspective that moves beyond dogmatic debates about sustainability and capitalism.
 Offering practical guidance for business leaders and investors, 
 Purposeful Capitalism
 is vital reading for anyone interested in improving our economic system and building a flourishing society.

His experience with the Positive Change Strategy gives him unique insights into how businesses can deliver both profits and positive societal impact.

Management und Organisationsberatung

Klar kommunizieren, wirksam handeln 

 Zwischen Tempo und Sorgfalt, Deutlichkeit und Wertschätzung: Führungskräfte stecken täglich in Zwickmühlen - Situationen ohne eindeutig "richtige" Lösung. Das Buch macht diese Dilemmata sichtbar und handhabbar. Seine zentrale These: Wer Dilemmata klar benennen kann, bleibt auch ohne finale Gewissheit handlungsfähig - gegenüber Mitarbeitenden wie Vorgesetzten.
 

 Anhand von 11 typischen Führungsdilemmata aus ihrer Beratungspraxis zeigen die Autor:innen unter anderem, wie man in Konfliktsituationen klar kritisiert und zugleich Beziehung sichert, wie man zwischen situativem Führen und werteorientierter Führung balanciert. Daneben werden Sprach- und Handlungsstrategien für Führungskräfte und Beratende vermittelt, die sich sofort in der täglichen Praxis einsetzen lassen.
 

 Jedes Kapitel bietet Ausgangssituationen, Fallbeispiele, Situationsanalysen, ein Wertequadrat sowie konkrete Formulierungen für schwierige Gespräche. Sie helfen, Erwartungen zu managen, Kommunikation im Führungsalltag zu schärfen und Führungskompetenz wirksam weiterzuentwickeln.

Dilemmata der Führung

Despite the growing population and significant natural resources of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), economies in that region currently represent only 2% of global GDP. Finished goods are imported to Africa from the US, Europe, China and Japan, while commodities remain the primary export. Addressing this balance must be the primary focus of initiatives to foster economic growth and development across the region in the coming years. However, there is currently a lack of intellectual discourse that incorporates diverse firm-level and institutional-level theories, as well as the stakeholder perspective, to explain the transformation of Sub-Saharan Africa into a production economy. This two-volume edited work brings together scholars of business in Africa and economic transformation to discuss topics including the knowledge economy, inter-regional relations, supply chains, the informal economy, the service sector and more, creating a broad and probing analysis of Africa’s potential for transformation and strategies to achieve it.This first volume explores a multidisciplinary perspective on the transformation of SSA’s economies to production and export orientation, which entail: facilitating SSA’s economic transformation through regional relations; the role of SSA’s informal sector on regional relations and economic transformation; and the recommendations for economic transforming in SSA. It will be of interest to scholars of business in Africa, international business, developing economies, business strategy and innovation.Ayodotun Stephen Ibidunni

Co-Creation beschreibt eine moderne Art des Zusammenarbeitens. Dabei ist Co-Creation mehr als die Einbeziehung von Kunden oder Stakeholdern, mehr als Kooperation und Kollaboration. Gleichzeitig ist Co-Creation kein Allheilmittel, das immer passt und für jegliche Teams und Produkte anwendbar ist. Wie lässt sich also Co-Creation bei der Durchführung von Projekten integrieren? Wen oder was braucht es dafür? Dieses Buch geht diesen Fragen nach und beleuchtet Rahmenbedingungen, Personen und Werkzeuge für eine wirkungsvolle Umsetzung von Co-Creation für Projekte. Damit beschreibt dieses Buch einen besonderen Aspekt im Spannungsfeld zwischen klassischen Handlungsweisen in Projekten und modernen Arbeitsweisen und gibt allen Beteiligten in Projekten, besonders Projektleitern oder Produktmanagern sowie auch Agilen Mastern oder Product Ownern Impulse für die Arbeit mit ihren Teams.

How corporations can address legacies of historical oppression in ways that are good for them and good for others. Increasingly, corporate executives find themselves called upon to atone for their predecessors’ moral transgressions. While many are prepared to address inherited failed product lines or dysfunctional teams, few know how to handle demands that their enterprise address legacies of mass atrocity such as slavery, genocide, or colonialism. In Corporate Reckoning, Sarah Federman provides a corporate atonement model for corporate leaders and employees across industries around the world. When survivors and descendants demand reckoning, many corporate leaders initially shirk the responsibilities that follow from these requests. They may claim that history belongs to the historians, that their company’s activities were legal at the time, or that too much time has passed. If it comes to it, courts will rule in their favor, they reassure themselves. Others avoid these issues simply because they have no idea how to address them. Demands for reckoning ebb and flow, but these histories do not disappear. This book offers a way forward that serves companies and those affected by these historical harms. Taking responsibility for irreparable harm is not easy or comfortable. Despite the dilemmas and difficulties, the only way out is through.
