Abstract:

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to draw from data collected as part of the International Successful School Principalship Project (ISSPP) and present cases of democratic and heroic leadership from three countries, discussing to what extent successful school principals in each of their research sites (Melbourne, Australia; Umeå, Sweden; Arizona and Texas in the USA) carry old and new perspectives of heroism in their leadership. In particular the paper explores two questions: first, how do school principals describe aspects of heroic and post-heroic leadership in their practices? and secon

ABSTRACT The introduction and adoption of the Unified Command System (UCS) /Incident Command System (ICS) under the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (Public Law 101–380, as amended) (OPA 90) has been largely effective, the ongoing training of Federal On-Scene Coordinators (FOSC) by the Coast Guard's Marine Safety School has raised the quality of spill response management, and the development of Spill Management Teams (SMT) by the private sector has also significantly improved the effectiveness of spill response.

Abstract:

Context: Annually, more than 1 million youth athletes in the United States receive or are suspected of receiving a concussion. The Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) is the most commonly used clinical balance evaluation designed to provide a better understanding of the motor-control processes of individuals with concussion. Despite the widespread use of the BESS, a fundamental gap exists in applying this tool to young athletes, as normative values are lacking for this population. Objective: To determine age- and sex-specific normative values for the BESS in youth, high school, and collegiate

After more than two decades of academic and professional work focusing on the development of psychological theory, research methods, and decision modeling techniques in marketing, the author applies his knowledge to solve what he believes is the single greatest challenge facing the United States—the development of a curriculum and corresponding pedagogy to teach decision-making skills to at-risk children. The initial targets were elementary schoolchildren, but during the developmental process, the author expanded the curriculum to include at-risk young adults and, more recently, MBA students.

Abstract:

This article explains how consensus decision making has operated in practice in the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade/World Trade Organization (GATT/WTO). When GATT/WTO bargaining is law-based, consensus outcomes are Pareto-improving and roughly symmetrical. When bargaining is power-based, states bring to bear instruments of power that are extrinsic to rules, invisibly weighting the process and generating consensus outcomes that are asymmetrical and may not be Pareto-improving. Empirical analysis shows that although trade rounds have been launched through law-based bargaining, hard law is

Abstract:

Rational theories of organizational decision-making have shown that organiza tional outcomes and performance reflect a mixture of behavioural, structural and contextual factors, such as the goals of managers, the size and function of the organization, and the condition of the external environment. Critiques of this model suggest that non-rational factors such as national or systemic cultural values also affect the decision-making process. This article treats Canada and the United States as similar systems that differ in the degree to which their cultures embody conservative values. The author

Abstract:

While families have historically provided the basis of business organization in the United States, in the late nineteenth century the development of corporations and managerial capitalism weakened their role in business, especially in management (Bell 1962; Chandler 1977; Farber 1972; Hall 1977,1988; Kanter 1978; Mills 1956; Shammas et al. 1987). Chandler (1977) has postulated a historical decline in family management, control, and decision making in firms with the growth of industrial capitalism; others have asserted a continued presence of the family in business ownership (Davis and Stern 19

SummaryThis study examines the effect of employee involvement and job insecurity on employee satisfaction and commitment. A data set incorporating information from employees, managers and government sources in fifteen hospitals in a single metropolitan region in the United States is used to test these issues. In contrast to previous research, we find that workers’ satisfaction and commitment persist as long as the form of employee involvement in place increases worker input and control in their jobs and as long as management is perceived to be making clear efforts to enhance the future securit

There is considerable interest in the proper management of public lands in the United States, but questions arise over what institutional arrangements may ensure proper land stewardship. Recently, the trust doctrine has been heralded as a way to motivate prudent decision making by land managers. School trust lands, which are managed to generate revenues for public schools, represent a long-standing example of the trust doctrine at work. We examine Mississippi school trust leases and show that the trustees, who are elected officials, maintain multiple conflicting objectives, which ultimately un

Abstract:

At the end of the 1940s, the United States and several West European states allied to defend themselves against invasion by the Soviet Union. Balance-ofpower theory predicts the recurrent formation of such balances among states. But it says little about the precise nature of the balance, the principles on which it will be constructed, or its institutional manifestations. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) has been a peculiar mix. As a formal institution, NATO has through most of its history been distinctly nonmultilateral, with the United States commanding most decision-making power

Abstract Background. Obesity is a chronic disease with a significant negative impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and specifically, physical functioning, including the ability to complete activities of daily living (ADLs). Weight loss based on lifestyle management (e.g. diet, exercise), surgery, and pharmacotherapy can improve physical functioning; however, there is a need for further qualitative research to support the content validity of patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures for use in clinical studies of obesity and thus inform regulatory decision-making.
