by John Weisman

The CIA, currently incapable of performing its core mission of supplying critical and time-sensitive human-based intelligence for the global war on terror, must now outsource the work to private contractors. Drawing on real-world crises and actual CIA operations, Direct Action takes readers deep inside this new and unreported covert warfare that is being fought on a daily basis by anonymous shadow warriors all across the globe.Racing against the clock and shuttling between Washington, Paris, and the Middle East, one of those shadow warriors, former CIA case officer Tom Stafford, must slip below the radar to uncover, target, and neutralize a deadly al-Qa'ida bombmaker before the assassin can launch simultaneous multiple attacks against America and the West. And as if that weren't enough, Stafford must simultaneously open a second front and mount a clandestine war against the CIA itself, because for mysterious and seemingly inexplicable reasons the people at the very top of the Central Intelligence Agency want him to fail.The characters and operations in Direct Action are drawn from true-life CIA personnel and their real-world missions. With Direct Action, John Weisman confirms once again Joseph Wambaugh's claim that "nobody writes better about the dark and dirty world of the CIA and black ops."

Digitalisierung und Kulturwandel: Strategien für die moderne Arbeitswelt – ein Wegweiser

by Josef Herget

Dieses Buch zeigt die Bedeutung des Kulturwandels bei der Digitalisierung von Arbeitsprozessen, der Gestaltung neuer Arbeitsumgebungen und der Realisierung innovativer Geschäftsmodelle. Dieser Faktor wird zumeist in der Literatur zwar immer wieder betont und als wichtig erachtet, es fehlen jedoch konkrete Vorgehensschritte und die Integration in ein integriertes Kulturkonzept der Unternehmen. Gerade die bewusste Gestaltung der hybrider Unternehmenskultur ermöglicht es, die Potentiale der Leistungssteigerung gemeinsam mit der Zufriedenheit und Produktivität der Mitarbeiter zu vereinbaren. In dieser überarbeiteten und erweiterten 2. Auflage werden konkrete Konzepte vorgestellt, wie die digitale Transformation methodisch mit der veränderten Unternehmenskultur umgesetzt werden kann. Dieses praxeologisch orientierte Buch bietet Unternehmen und Beratern bewährte Modelle, Konzepte und Vorgehensweisen, damit die digitale Transformation nachhaltig gelingen kann.

Für jeden Touchpoint auf dem Weg zum Kaufabschluss müssen Etappenziele definiert werden, wodurch Effektivität und Effizienz der Maßnahmen leicht überprüft werden können.Ein Werk für Marketingverantwortliche, die nach Lösungen in der Post-Cookie-Ära suchen, um ihre Zielgruppen weiterhin ohne Streuverluste zu erreichen.

Digitale Teilhabe von Menschen mit einer geistigen Beeinträchtigung: Entwicklung einer Definition, eines Modells und eines Erhebungsinstruments

by Joanna Albrecht Nadine Hüning

In diesem Open-Access-Buch wird die Entwicklung einer Definition, eines Modells und eines Erhebungsinstruments Digitaler Teilhabe von Menschen mit geistiger Beeinträchtigung beschrieben. Eine geistige Behinderung wird als Konstrukt verstanden, das durch die ganzheitliche Wechselwirkung zwischen personenbezogenen Faktoren, Gesundheitsproblemen sowie umweltbezogenen Barrieren entsteht. Für die Identifikation der Hilfebedarfe zur Realisierung von Teilhabe ist die ganzheitliche Betrachtung von heterogenen Ursachen, Formen und Ausprägungen unverzichtbar. Der Anspruch auf Teilhabe ist gesetzlich verankert, jedoch führt die digitale Transformation zu neuen gesellschaftlichen Ungleichheiten, die sich als Digital Divide manifestieren. Trotz geringer und heterogener Datenlage zu Ungleichheiten bei Menschen mit (geistiger) Beeinträchtigung sind bereits Hinweise auf eine Digital Disability Divide zu erkennen. Um dieses Forschungsdesiderat aufzuarbeiten, bedarf es eines einheitlichen Begriffsverständnisses Digitaler Teilhabe. Auch müssen Einflussfaktoren eruiert werden, um Ansätze zur Förderung Digitaler Teilhabe zu entwickeln und darauf aufbauend ein Erhebungsinstrument zu entwickeln. Entsprechend verfolgt diese Forschungsarbeit die Entwicklung einer Definition,eines Modells und Erhebungsinstruments Digitaler Teilhabe von Menschen mit geistiger Beeinträchtigung in der Eingliederungshilfe.
