Abstract:

Abstract This book explores the storied spaces and narrative archetypes of a secondary business service, using facilities management (FM) as an example of non-core and increasingly outsourced organizational activities. The centrepiece is the development of artificial folklore, a research approach combining organizational analysis, storytelling, and folklore for interpretive purposes. An in-depth exploration of FM is developed; one exploring people, place, and process in a project revealing elements of organizational liminality as well as professional enchantment. This leads to concentration on

Abstract:

Partly fueled by the pervasiveness of information technologies that facilitate the broadcasting of problems to crowds, and by anecdotal examples of phenomenally high-value solutions from outsourcing some problems to crowds, growth in the research and practice of crowdsourcing for problem solving has been remarkable. Research streams have been emerging in different disciplines. In this introduction to the volume, we introduce twelve chapters by scholars—from different disciplines—who explore interesting topics from some of these emerging research streams. The chapters fall into different groups

They angered the local populace with their forceful proselytization and were soon driven out of the region.

HRM comprises of a set of activities (recruitment and selection, training, reward, performance management, etc.) related to the management of people. It is often posited that because people are a key source of competitive advantage, such activities should be seen as central to organizational success. However, the HR function in most organizations is typically administrative in character, and seen as a cost to be minimized. Normative models of HRM that stress HR’s strategic dimension are rarely adopted in practice. This chapter seeks to explain why this is. It argues that five powerful forces c

As such, the response of the local and national authorities to such traditions changed. Concentrating on demonstrations of the unemployed, this chapter

If untreated, this distress can persist and hinder both recovery and quality of life.

Abstract:

In 1962, Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring sounded an alarm: the natural environment is being dangerously degraded because of human activity. Ever since, environmental protection has been a major societal concern. A robust system of environmental laws has emerged in the United States, commercial activities are increasingly scrutinized for their environmental impact, and communities around the world are becoming aware of the environment as a global issue requiring international attention. The most important evidence comes from the environment itself: the planet is warming, water supplies are at ris

Abstract:

The Brief Behavioral Therapy (BBT) program is designed to help kids and teens with “internalizing problems”—by this we mean feeling stressed, sad, bad, nervous, worried, moody, irritable, or scared. Feelings like these are the most common mental health problems that kids, teens, and even adults experience throughout their lives. Although these issues are quite common, internalizing problems can lead to serious consequences if they are not treated. Without treatment, anxiety and depression tend to become chronic, long-lasting issues. They also make it hard for kids to do the things they need an

Abstract:

The perception of pain is a biological mechanism which warns that damage has occurred and protects against further damage, allowing healing to occur. Acute pain often acts as an indicator of injury severity and progression or healing. The same may apply in some with chronic injuries, but in others pain may not correlate with tissue damage and/or may not be a sign that the tissue needs to be protected from mechanical stress. The management of most sports injuries involves early mobilization where possible, and pain management in the treatment of these injuries is important to allow rehabilitati

Scope This standard covers the AMPP external corrosion direct assessment (ECDA) process for buried onshore ferrous pipeline systems. This standard is intended to serve as a guide for applying the AMPP ECDA process on typical pipeline systems. This standard was written to provide flexibility for an operator to tailor the process to specific pipeline situations. ECDA is a continuous improvement process. Through successive applications, ECDA should identify and address locations at which corrosion activity has occurred, is occurring, or may occur and reduce the external corrosion integrity risk o
