Neuorientierung des Widerstands in Hongkong: Linkssein, Dekolonialität und Internationalismus
by Wen Liu Jn Chien Christina Chung Ellie TseDieses Buch versammelt Beiträge von Aktivisten und Wissenschaftlern, die sich mit linken und dekolonialen Formen des Widerstands befassen, die in der aktuellen Ära der Proteste in Hongkong entstanden sind. Praktiken wie gewerkschaftliches Engagement, die Abschaffung der Polizei, der Kampf um Landrechte und andere radikale Ausdrucksformen der Selbstverwaltung werden vielleicht nicht explizit unter den Bannern der Linken und der Dekolonialität geführt. Wenn man sie jedoch in diesem Rahmen untersucht, lassen sich historische, transnationale und präfigurative Perspektiven aufzeigen, die helfen können, ihre Auswirkungen auf die politische Zukunft Hongkongs zu kontextualisieren und zu interpretieren. Diese Sammlung bietet nicht nur Einblicke in die lokalen Kämpfe in Hongkong, sondern auch in ihre Verflechtung mit globalen Bewegungen, da die Stadt weiterhin an der vordersten Front der internationalen Politik steht.
Neural Approximations for Optimal Control and Decision (Communications and Control Engineering)
by Riccardo Zoppoli Marcello Sanguineti Giorgio Gnecco Thomas ParisiniNeural Approximations for Optimal Control and Decision provides a comprehensive methodology for the approximate solution of functional optimization problems using neural networks and other nonlinear approximators where the use of traditional optimal control tools is prohibited by complicating factors like non-Gaussian noise, strong nonlinearities, large dimension of state and control vectors, etc. Features of the text include: • a general functional optimization framework; • thorough illustration of recent theoretical insights into the approximate solutions of complex functional optimization problems; • comparison of classical and neural-network based methods of approximate solution; • bounds to the errors of approximate solutions; • solution algorithms for optimal control and decision in deterministic or stochastic environments with perfect or imperfect state measurements over a finite or infinite time horizon and with one decision maker or several; • applications of current interest: routing in communications networks, traffic control, water resource management, etc.; and • numerous, numerically detailed examples. The authors’ diverse backgrounds in systems and control theory, approximation theory, machine learning, and operations research lend the book a range of expertise and subject matter appealing to academics and graduate students in any of those disciplines together with computer science and other areas of engineering.

Neuro-Advertising: Brain-friendly advertising for more success in your market
by Elke SchwarzFind out how to increase your marketing success with this book on neuro-advertising. Marketing is one of the most important departments in a company. It is responsible for attracting new customers and retaining existing customers. Unfortunately, in many cases, high budgets are spent on marketing strategies that have little effect. This book on neuro-advertising will help you to effectively increase the impact of your advertising. It is based on the "Subconscious Decision Marketing Index" (SDMI). This neuroscientific method represents a new marketing tool that can be used to measure the subconscious impact of advertising. These include: Facial features Body Reactions Emotions Brain activity In this way, advertising strategies can be effectively planned and marketing efficiency sustainably increased. It is measured how successful advertising is or is not. Then advertising measures can be designed according to the target group. Marketing agencies can benefit from this technique as well as marketers working for companies. Key figures help to compare results Typically, it is difficult to measure unconscious emotions and emotions. However, this new method manages to do just that by creating metrics in the context of consumer research. In this way, individual indices of marketing effectiveness can be measured: Emotional Index: What emotions does advertising trigger? Benefit Index: To what extent does the advertising convince with brain-appropriate benefits? Memory index: How high is the actual memory value? Hormone index: Which hormonal reactions are triggered and how do they influence the buying process of customers? Impulse Index: How well does advertising use impulse opportunities? In turn, you can easily compare these indices with previous measurements and derive clear recommendations for action. The book on neuro-advertising explains this method in a practical way, allowing you to integrate it directly into your marketing planning.
Neuro-Linguistic Programming for Change Leaders: The Butterfly Effect
by David PotterWe know a lot about change leadership. We understand how to design change programmes, and we know how to prescribe best practice change methods. Yet, despite all this knowledge, it is reported that up to 70% of change leadership projects fail to realize many of their objectives. The fault lines are cited as occurring at the micro level of social interaction. What we don’t adequately explain and demonstrate within the change leadership literature is how change leaders may consciously generate in themselves and in others resourceful mindsets, emotions, attitudes, and behaviours to enable positive change leadership dynamics. Neuro-Linguistic Programming for Change Leaders: The Butterfly Effect fills this gap by connecting the practices of personal development with those of corporate change leadership. This book has the vision of advancing NLP as a serious technology in the change leader’s tool box. The book introduces to operations managers, HR practitioners, OD specialists, and students of management new ideas and practices, which can transform their effectiveness as change leaders. It focuses on the benefits of applied NLP to change leaders as a generative change toolkit. Secondly, the book provides a model that shows change leaders how to build a climate of psychological safety to establish rapport with stakeholders. Thirdly, the book provides a strategy for enabling broader cultural change and stakeholder engagement throughout the organization.

Neuro-Organisationskultur: Moderne Führung orientiert an Hirn- und Emotionsforschung
by Garo D. Reisyan"Neuro-Organisationskultur" oder kurz "Neurokultur" baut auf die Erfahrungen auf, die in den letzten 30 Jahren mit Organisationskultur gemacht wurden und ergänzt sie um neueste Erkenntnisse aus Hirn- und Emotionsforschung sowie um wichtige Einsichten aus Soziologie und Psychologie. Die aktuelle Konzeptlandschaft zum Thema Organisationskultur ist im Kern 20-30 Jahre alt und weist für praktische Operationalisierungen gravierende Unzulänglichkeiten auf. Mit dem Konzept "Neurokultur" wird ein neuartiges Kulturmodell vorgestellt, das im Kern die drei Bausteine Reflexivität, Vorstellungen und Emotionen aufweist. Dazu führt der Autor in die neurowissenschaftlichen Grundlagen z. B. von Wahrnehmung, Gedächtnis und Lernen ein und macht mit Konstrukten, wie etwa Emotion, Stress, kognitiver Dissonanz, Intelligenz, Aufmerksamkeit und Kreativität vertraut. Neuartig ist auch, dass Gruppen und Individuen konsistent unter einem Dach konzeptualisiert wurden. Insgesamt ergibt sich ein signifikant belastbareres Verständnis von kulturellen Phänomenen und menschlichem Verhalten, wodurch sich neue Möglichkeiten der Operationalisierung eröffnen. Dazu wird ein struktureller Rahmen nebst Begriffsinventar sowie konkrete Methoden und Vorlagen zur Analyse, kontinuierlichen Pflege und gezielten Veränderung von Organisationskultur dargeboten. Schließlich werden wichtige Megatrends skizziert, auf deren Basis Anforderungen an das kulturelle Profil von Organisationen des 21. Jahrhunderts abgeleitet werden. Das praxisorientierte Buch enthält zahlreiche Beispiele aus Unternehmen und Exkurse zu aktuellen Themen aus Gesellschaft, Politik und allgemeiner Lebensführung.
Neuro-Organizational Culture
by Garo D. ReisyanThis book introduces a new concept on organizational culture, called 'Neuro-Organizational Culture', or 'Neuroculture'; a concept that is based on the most recent neuroscientific knowledge. The book describes a new approach to understanding human behavior and interaction in the workplace, replacing the old concept of organizational culture by one that takes into account humans' perceiving, feeling, thinking, and acting. Taking advantage of the substantial progress that has been made in neuroscientific research, the book combines experiences gained from organizational culture in the past 30 years with the latest findings from brain and emotion research, as well as with important insights from sociology and psychology. The book explains the three building blocks of Neuroculture: Reflexivity, Notions, and Emotions. Neuroculture consistently conceptualizes the culture of groups and individuals consistently under one roof, which allows for a better explanation of individual deviations. It provides a structural framework and an inventory along with proven methods and templates to analyze, continuously foster and actively change organizational culture. In addition, it outlines global megatrends in order to define cultural requisites that promote sustainable success of organizations in the 21st century.

NeuroInvesting
by Wai-Yee ChenRewire your brain for investing successAs an investment advisor to high net worth individuals, Wai-Yee Chen has spent years watching her clients make investment decisions--some good decisions and some not-so-good decisions. Though confronted by the same market variables, those clients often make very different choices with very different results. Here, Chen argues that it's usually not the data that affects investor decision-making as much as the way investors themselves think. In NeuroInvesting, Chen argues that investors can change the way they think in order to change the way they invest. She presents four elements that affect investor decision-making and reveals how investors can rewire their brains to make better investing decisions for better returns.Uses neuroscience to explain how successful investors think differentWritten by an experienced investment advisor who works at one of Australia's premier retail brokersExplains investing using real-world stories about investors from an advisor's perspectiveWhen it comes to investing, how you think has a huge impact on how you make investing decisions. Based on the real science of how people think, NeuroInvesting offers every investor a chance to change the way they invest by changing the way they think.

Neurocognitive Risk Assessment for the Early Detection of Violent Extremists
by Geoff DeanThis Brief provides a theoretical and conceptual development of a new Risk Assessment Toolbox (RAT) for the early detection of violent extremists. It is based on a neurocognitive perspective, conceptualized as 'neuroplasticity-in-action' arising from brain-based neural patterns expressed in mind-based cognitive pathways likely to form a mind-set of violent extremism. This neurocognitive-based Risk Assessment Toolbox (RAT) is comprised of two distinct components: a cognitive indicators instrument that serves as an early detection checklist for trained practitioners, and a software visualisation program. The Brief includes: A framework of contemporary approaches to the risk assessment of violence as well as the background context for the current research project on 'violent extremism' and its related concepts of 'terrorism' and 'radicalisation,' out of which the RAT was developed. A detailed overview of RAT and a pilot case study experiment to highlight the practical value and utility of this neurocognitive Risk Assessment Toolbox. Preliminary research findings of a study conducted with a sample of recognized experts (academics and practitioners) in several countries around the world, to fine tune and validate the risk parameters of the two components that constitute RAT (Risk Assessment Toolbox). The current stage of development of RAT as a practitioner-based system for the early detection of potentially violent extremists as well as its strategic intelligence implications for using a neurocognitive risk assessment approach to violent extremism is discussed. Research limitations and plans for future research studies. This work will be of interest to researchers in Criminology and Criminal Justice interested in studying violent extremism, terrorism and crime prevention and intervention and policing, as well as researchers in related fields of Forensic Psychology, Cognitive Neuroscience and Social Work or Social Intervention.

Neurodiversity Works: A Study Of Employees With ADHD, AS And PTSD
by Sarah E. H. BabineauThis research paper focuses on the experiences of employees with hidden disabilities in the workplace. Three cognitive disorders were studied, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Asperger's Syndrome, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Literature by experts on these subjects is reviewed and analyzed. Participants then describe their feelings and experiences in the workplace as they related to their conditions, and the two are juxtaposed in a final discussion. Emergent themes that resulted from the lines of questioning included the role played by manager and coworker support, accommodations under ADA and ADA Amendments Act, working environment, employee attitude, and whether the participants felt they had been treated fairly. Participants were asked to contribute to a quantitative survey instrument as well as a qualitative survey instrument that encouraged them to tell their stories in their own words. In some cases, these stories serve to help identify best practices in the workplace, and some serve to illustrate the obstacles and level of conflict, sometimes bordering on cruelty, that can exist for those with ADHD, AS and PTSD if negative behaviors and attitudes in the workplace are left unchecked. Human Resources practitioners and managers were also queried on the subject to obtain a rounded and full view of the challenges employees with these three hidden disabilities face, as well as those of the people who manage them.
Neurodiversity and Work: Employment, Identity, and Support Networks for Neurominorities (Palgrave Studies in Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Indigenization in Business)
by Eric Patton Alecia M. SantuzziThis interdisciplinary work explores creating more inclusive workplaces around neurodiversity. It focuses on how organizations can promote true inclusion for neurominorities, a large segment of the emerging workforce while underlining the difficulties as well as the strength-based characteristics faced by this population.Beyond social, learning or communication challenges, neurominorities are often highly intelligent, honest, authentic, hyper-focused, innovative, skilled in various forms of perception, reliable, and resilient. Discovering ways for true inclusion can add value to organizations, helping all employees to learn and develop as colleagues while also helping neurominorities fulfill the goals of achieving dignity, respect, independence, and flourishing through work. This volume connects neurodiversity to disability in the workplace and examines the factors that contribute to the successful employment and integration of neurodiverse workers, including the transition from school to the labor market. It also highlights barriers and challenges faced by neurominorities. This book will appeal to scholars across business and the social sciences looking to better understand how neurodiversity should be addressed in organizational contexts. The multidisciplinary approach will accelerate management research and practices by providing insights already captured across a wide variety of disciplines, rather than prompting management researchers to build upon what currently exists solely in the management literature
Neurodiversity at Work: Drive Innovation, Performance and Productivity with a Neurodiverse Workforce
by Amanda Kirby Theo SmithAn organization's employees are its biggest competitive advantage. Performance gains can be achieved through cost saving, process improvement or technology adoption, but the biggest difference is made by people. This means that recruiting, engaging and retaining the very best talent has never been more important.Crucially, these employees should be a diverse group of people with different approaches, skills and strengths in problem-solving and driving innovation. As well as focusing on gender, race, age and class, it is critical that businesses also develop a neurodiverse workforce if they are committed to outperforming the competition and achieving sustainable business growth.Neurodiversity at Work is a practical guide that explains what neurodiversity is, why it's important and what the benefits are. It covers how to attract, recruit and engage neurodiverse talent and provides guidance on how to adapt HR policies, processes and workplaces to ensure that all employees, including the 2 in 10 employees in the UK who are neurodiverse, can reach their full potential. Neurodiversity at Work is packed full of case studies from leading organizations like Microsoft who are already seeing the productivity, performance and financial benefits of neurodiversity in the workplace. Individuals in these companies are also experiencing benefits in their working environments. Also featured are interviews with prominent figures in the neurodiversity community and people who have successfully adapted their HR processes for neurodiversity, including members of the ND@IBM Program and the Head of People and Culture at Autotrader. With tips, advice, examples and 'how to' actions in every chapter, this is essential reading for every HR professional.
Neuroeconomics, Judgment, and Decision Making (Frontiers of Cognitive Psychology)
by Edited by Evan A. Wilhelms and Valerie F. ReynaThis volume explores how and why people make judgments and decisions that have economic consequences, and what the implications are for human well-being. It provides an integrated review of the latest research from many different disciplines, including social, cognitive, and developmental psychology; neuroscience and neurobiology; and economics and business. The book has six areas of focus: historical foundations; cognitive consistency and inconsistency; heuristics and biases; neuroeconomics and neurobiology; developmental and individual differences; and improving decisions. Throughout, the contributors draw out implications from traditional behavioral research as well as evidence from neuroscience. In recent years, neuroscientific methods have matured, beyond being simply correlational and descriptive, into theoretical prediction and explanation, and this has opened up many new areas of discovery about economic behavior that are reviewed in the book. In the final part, there are applications of the research to cognitive development, individual differences, and the improving of decisions. The book takes a broad perspective and is written in an accessible way so as to reach a wide audience of advanced students and researchers interested in behavioral economics and related areas. This includes neuroscientists, neuropsychologists, clinicians, psychologists (developmental, social, and cognitive), economists and other social scientists; legal scholars and criminologists; professionals in public health and medicine; educators; evidence-based practitioners; and policy-makers.
