Need, Speed, and Greed: How the New Rules of Innovation Can Transform Businesses, Propel Nations to Greatness, and Tame the World's Most Wicked Problems
by Vijay V. VaitheeswaranWorld-renowned economist Vijay V. Vaitheeswaran provides a deeply insightful, brilliantly informed guide to the innovation revolution now transforming the world. With echoes of Clayton Christensen’s The Innovator’s Dilemma, Tim Brown’s Change by Design, and Jared Diamond’s Guns, Germs, and Steel, Vaitheeswaran’s Need, Speed, and Greed introduces readers to the go-getters, imagineers, and visionaries now reshaping the global economy. Along the way, Vaitheeswaran teaches readers the skills they must develop to unleash their own inner innovator and reveals why America and other wealthy, privileged societies must embrace a path of inclusive growth and sustainability—or risk being left behind by history.
Need-Based Distributive Justice: An Interdisciplinary Perspective
by Bernhard Kittel Stefan TraubThis book explores the foundations and potential of a theory of need-based distributive justice, supported by experimental evidence. The core idea is that need-based distributive justice may have some legitimatory advantages over other important principles of distribution, like equality and equity, and therefore involves less dispute over the distribution and redistribution of scarce resources.In seven chapters, eleven scholars from the fields of philosophy, psychology, sociology, political science and economics outline the normative and positive building blocks of such a theory by critically reviewing the literature on distributive justice from their respective disciplinary perspectives. They address important theoretical and practical issues concerning the rationality of needs identification at the individual level and the recognition of needs at the societal level. They also investigate whether and how the dynamics of distribution procedures that allocate resources according to the need principle leads to social stability, focusing on the economic incentives that arise from need-based redistribution. The final chapter provides a synthesis and outlines a framework for a theory of justice based on ten hypotheses derived from the insights presented.

Needs Assessment for Learning and Performance: Theory, Process, and Practice
by Jill E. StefaniakNeeds Assessment for Learning and Performance offers comprehensive coverage of the knowledge and skills needed to develop and conduct needs assessments and to analyze, interpret, and communicate results to clients and organizations. Though critical to planning any performance improvement system, needs assessments can feel abstract and vague to students who have not yet managed the process in a professional setting. This first-of-its-kind textbook uses a variety of real-world examples to connect major theories and models to effective principles for practice. Each chapter offers guiding questions, key terms and concepts, recommended readings, and case studies illustrating how needs assessment training can be applied. Graduate students and researchers of instructional design, human resources, performance improvement, program evaluation, and other programs will find this volume relevant to a range of academic and organizational contexts.
Negative Capability in Leadership Practice: Implications for Working in Uncertainty
by Peter Simpson Charlotte von BülowWorking in uncertainty has become the new normal, but what do leaders have to draw upon when lacking the requisite knowledge? In this book, the authors make a case for Negative Capability, which enables leaders to work in a state of not knowing without simply reaching for old ideas or resorting to habitual behaviours. It is not a practice that can be measured, but its impact in leadership practice is immense and tangible. Offering fresh insights for leadership students, researchers, and practitioners on the challenges of working in uncertainty, the book offers a novel perspective on Negative Capability as a way of being. Each chapter explores an aspect of Negative Capability through the accounts of leaders and managers who had the courage to explore this way of being and share the stories about its powerful impact. Ultimately, this book explores how a practice of attention can lead to new ways of understanding the role of purpose, leisure, and passion in leadership practice.
Negative Interest Rates and Financial Stability: Lessons in Systemic Risk (Routledge International Studies in Money and Banking)
by Małgorzata Iwanicz-Drozdowska Karol RogowiczThis book sheds new light on a recently introduced monetary tool – negative interest rates policy (NIRP). It provides in-depth insight into this phenomenon, conducted by the central banks in several economies, for example, the Eurozone, Switzerland and Japan, and its possible impact on systemic risk. Although it has been introduced as a temporary policy instrument, it may remain widely used for a longer period and by a greater range of central banks than initially expected, thus the book explores its effects and implications on the banking sector and financial markets, with a particular focus on potentially adverse consequences. There is a strong accent on the uniqueness of negative policy rates in the context of financial stability concerns. The authors assess whether NIRP has any – or in principle a stronger – impact on systemic risk than conventional monetary policy. The book is targeted at presenting and evaluating the initial experiences of NIRP policy during normal, i.e. pre-COVID, times, rather than in periods in which pre-established macroeconomic relations are rapidly disrupted or, specifically, when the source of the disruption is not purely economic in nature, unlike in systemic crisis. The authors adopt both theoretical and practical approaches to explore the key issues and outline the policy implications for both monetary and macroprudential authorities, with respect to negative interest rate policy, thus the book will provide a useful guide for policymakers, academics, advanced students and researchers of financial economics and international finance.
Negative Political Advertising: Coming of Age (Routledge Communication Series)
by Karen S. Johnson-Cartee Gary CopelandThis volume provides a unique synthesis of the relevant literature from academic studies in the fields of political science, marketing, advertising, speech communication, telecommunication, and public relations combined with the practical wisdom of professional consultants. Offering the reader both the theory and practical applications associated with negative political advertising, this is the first book devoted exclusively to the various forms of negative campaigning in the United States. After developing a typology of negative political spots for greater clarity in explaining and evaluating them, the book addresses effectiveness questions such as: What works? When? Why? and How?
Negative und positive Effekte von Absagen in Online-Produkttester-Programmen (Applied Marketing Science / Angewandte Marketingforschung)
by Kira Louisa KüpperOnline-Produkttester-Programme haben sich zu einem bedeutendem Marketinginstrument entwickelt, bei dem Konsumenten sich bewerben können, um Produkte kostenlos oder vergünstigt zu testen und anschließend bewerten müssen. Diese Programme zielen darauf ab, wertvolles Feedback in Form von Fragebögen oder Online-Reviews zu sammeln, um die Bekanntheit und das Image von Produkten und Marken zu steigern. Doch nicht jeder Bewerber kann als Produkttester ausgewählt werden. Häufig sind die Unternehmen gezwungen Absagen an die Bewerber zu verschicken. Diese Arbeit untersucht die Auswirkungen von Absagen in Online-Produkttester-Programmen und liefert wertvolle Erkenntnisse für die Marketingforschung und -praxis. Auf der Grundlage sozialpsychologischer Theorien und qualitativer und quantitativer Studien untersucht Kira Louisa Küpper die unterschiedlichen Effekte von Absagen in Online-Produkttester-Programmen und identifiziert dabei zwei gegensätzliche Effekte. Die Unternehmen müssen sowohl mit negativen als auch mit positiven Konsequenzen rechnen, wenn sie Bewerber ablehnen. Eine Absage kann sowohl einen Effekt auf die Kaufabsicht als auch auf die Weiterempfehlungsabsicht der abgelehnten Bewerber haben. Die Ergebnisse zeigen Unternehmen auf, welche Faktoren einen Einfluss haben und geben Hinweise zur effektiven Gestaltung.
Neglected Links in Economics and Society: Inequality, Organization, Work and Economic Methodology
by Dieter BögenholdThis book deals with the Neglected Links in economics and society. These neglected links are the inner bonds and lines which keep the society and economy together and are almost interconnected although they are very often treated and discussed separately in different discourses. Contemporary discussion has forgotten to think universally and to integrate items into one common field of observation. Instead, too often particular items are studied and discussed as being independent of each other without acknowledging a broader context. The book gives an exemplary instruction on how to treat reciprocal links and how to work in an interdisciplinary way, which tackles history, sociology and economics at least. By so doing, the book as also serves as an educational instruction for integrative and interdisciplinary science instead of recapitulating mono-disciplinary approaches. Discussion includes topics such as social and economic inequality research, limits of rationality, and orthodoxies and heterodoxies of economic research, as well as a discussion of the heroes of interdisciplinary thought.

Negociação: Como Fazer Para Sair Sempre A Ganhar
by Passos Dias AguiarNão temos o que merecemos, apenas o que conseguimos negociar! A capacidade de negociar condiciona fortemente a vida profissional e pessoal de todos: é seguramente o indicador mais seguro do sucesso que cada um de nós tem ou pode vir a alcançar. Está demonstrado que as pessoas com grande capacidade negocial superam outras que lhes são superiores em capacidades intelectuais, em conhecimentos ou experiência, em boa vontade e mesmo em determinação. Há uma boa razão para isso: ao contrário do que muitos pensam, a capacidade negocial não é algo aplicável somente por uns poucos, que se reúnem em ambientes restritos para discutir "negócios" que passam ao lado da maioria de nós. Pelo contrário: o patrão negoceia com o trabalhador, o marido com a mulher, o aluno com o professor, o vendedor com o comprador, o colega com os seus pares, o filho com a mãe. Mesmo as pessoas que julgam não negociar têm diariamente dezenas de contactos negociais, onde ganham ou perdem! Infelizmente poucas são as pessoas que tiveram a oportunidade de receber treino em negociação. Esta obra colmata essa lacuna ao revelar os segredos, tácitas e estratégias utilizadas pelos negociadores mais hábeis: aqui encontra tudo o que necessita para começar imediatamente a obter melhores resultados nas suas negociações, quer no plano profissional quer no plano pessoal. Com um estilo agradável, fluente e bem-humorado este é um livro de fácil leitura a que sem dúvida recorrerá com frequência e da qual retirará inegável proveito. Alguns dos temas abordados: •Os três elementos cruciais de qualquer negociação. •As fontes de poder numa negociação. •Estilos de negociação. •Táticas para utilizar na abertura de uma negociação. •Táticas para utilizar no meio de uma negociação. •Táticas para utilizar no fim de uma negociação. •Como lidar com situaç�
