Book excerpt: Earthen architecture constitutes one of the most diverse forms of cultural heritage and one of the most challenging to preserve. It dates from all periods and is found on all continents but is particularly prevalent in Africa, where it has been a building tradition for centuries. Sites range from ancestral cities in Mali to the palaces of Abomey in Benin, from monuments and mosques in Iran and Buddhist temples on the Silk Road to Spanish missions in California. This volume's sixty-four papers address such themes as earthen architecture in Mali, the conservation of living sites, local knowledge systems and intangible aspects, seismic and other natural forces, the conservation and management of archaeological sites, research advances, and training.
Download or read book Attirer retenir et fid liser les ressources humaines written by Pascal Paillé and published by Hermann. This book was released on 2014 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans leur très grande majorité, les organisations poursuivent le désir d’être perçues comme de bons employeurs. Il en va naturellement de leur capital d’attraction auprès de leurs futurs employés, ainsi que de leur capacité à les fidéliser à long terme. Compte tenu de la pénurie de main-d’œuvre qualifiée dans certaines industries et certains secteurs d’activité, être perçu comme " un employeur attractif " est un enjeu important. À l’heure de l’hypermédiatisation, de nombreuses sources d’informations permettent à toute personne désireuse de joindre un employeur futur de collecter des données économiques ou sociales. Que cette information soit fondée ou non, réelle ou déformée, liée à un jugement de valeur ou à un jugement de fait importe peu. Parce qu’elle est rendue disponible, elle permet au futur employé de se forger une intime conviction sur la nature et la qualité du contexte d’emploi de l’entreprise ciblée. L’information agit alors comme une force d’attraction, élevée ou faible. Dans ces conditions, l’urgence vise la conservation des personnes en emploi. Mais doit-on retenir ou fidéliser les employés ? Est-il utile de poser la question ? Bien que les processus psychologiques, sociaux et organisationnels qui les sous-tendent se recoupent partiellement, l’attraction, la fidélisation et la rétention répondent à des enjeux managériaux différents et s’inscrivent dans des logiques temporelles différentes. À partir de quel point l’attraction détermine-t-elle le désir des employés de rester dans l’organisation ? La fidélisation des ressources humaines se distingue-t-elle de la rétention des ressources humaines ? Ce sont deux questions parmi d’autres auxquelles cet ouvrage se propose d’apporter des réponses.

Download or read book The Planetarium written by Nathalie Sarraute and published by Deep Vellum Publishing. This book was released on 2023-01-31 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young writer has his heart set on his aunt's large apartment. With this seemingly simple conceit, the characters of The Planetarium are set in orbit and a galaxy of argument, resentment, and bitterness erupts. Telling the story from various points of view, Sarraute focuses below the surface, on the emotional lives of the characters in a way that surpasses even Virginia Woolf. Always deeply engaging, The Planetarium reveals the deep disparity between the way we see ourselves and the way others see us.

Book excerpt: `Howard Aldrich and Martin Ruef's tour de force shows us how the evolutionary approach can explain change not only in organizational populations, but within sectors and within organizations.

Download or read book Entrepreneurship and New Value Creation written by Alain Fayolle and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-11-22 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do some individuals decide they want to create businesses and then actually do so? Why do others decide against this course of action, even though they appear to have what it takes to succeed? These two questions were among the first that researchers in the field of entrepreneurship tried to answer. Recently, it seems that the problem is much more difficult to solve than it first appeared thirty years ago. The venture creation phenomenon is a complex one, covering a wide variety of situations. The purpose of this book is to improve our understanding of this complexity by offering both a theory of the entrepreneurial process and practical advice on how to start a new business and manage it effectively. Entrepreneurship and New Value Creation is a fascinating, research-driven book that will appeal to graduate students, researchers and reflective practitioners concerned with the dynamics of the entrepreneurial process.
Download or read book Time in the Philosophy of Gabriel Marcel written by Helen Tattam and published by MHRA. This book was released on 2013 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gabriel Marcel (1889-1973) stands outside the traditional canon of twentieth-century French philosophers. Where he is not simply forgotten or overlooked, he is dismissed as a 'relentlessly unsystematic' thinker, or, following Jean-Paul Sartre's lead, labelled a 'Christian existentialist' - a label that avoids consideration of Marcel's work on its own terms. How is one to appreciate Marcel's contribution, especially when his oeuvre appears to be at odds with philosophical convention? Helen Tattam proposes a range of readings as opposed to one single interpretation, a series of departures or explorations that bring his work into contact with critical partners such as Henri Bergson, Paul Ricoeur and Emmanuel Lévinas, and offer insights into a host of twentieth-century philosophical shifts concerning time, the subject, the other, ethics, and religion. Helen Tattam's ambitious study is an impressively lucid account of Marcel's engagement with the problem of time and lived experience, and is her first monograph since the award of her doctorate from the University of Nottingham.

Download or read book Notebooks written by Paul Valéry and published by Peter Lang Gmbh, Internationaler Verlag Der Wissenschaften. This book was released on 2000 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cahiers/Notebooks of Paul Valéry are a unique form of writing. They reveal Valéry as one of the most radical and creative minds of the twentieth century, encompassing a wide range of investigation into all spheres of human activity. His work explores the arts, the sciences, philosophy, history and politics, investigating linguistic, psychological and social issues, all linked to the central questions, relentlessly posed: 'what is the human mind and how does it work?', 'what is the potential of thought and what are its limits?' But we encounter here too, Valéry the writer: exploratory, fragmentary texts undermine the boundaries between analysis and creativity, between theory and practice. Neither journal nor diary, eluding the traditional genres of writing, the Notebooks offer lyrical passages, writing of extreme beauty, prose poems of extraordinary descriptive power alongside theoretical considerations of poetics, ironic aphorisms and the most abstract kind of analysis. The concerns and the insights that occupied Valéry's inner voyages over more than 50 years remain as relevant as ever for the contemporary reader: for the Self that is his principal subject is at once singular and universal.
Download or read book La gestion humaine des ressources written by Nancy Brassard and published by Editions JFD. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La psychologie humaine est susceptible et subtile. En tant que gestionnaire, il faut faire preuve de courage de gestion et de sagesse. Surtout de sagesse ! Travailler avec l’humain, aider l’humain, guider l’humain. N’est-ce pas ce qu’un gestionnaire devrait à tout prix développer comme habiletés en vue d’amener les humains de son organisation à exprimer le plein potentiel de leurs compétences et ainsi les mettre au service de l’organisation ? On constate également que de nombreuses organisations font face à une pénurie de main-d’œuvre qualifiée ou éprouvent des difficultés en termes de recrutement, d’attraction, de rétention et de fidélisation de personnes compétentes. Or, on dit de la gestion axée sur les compétences qu’il s’agit d’une démarche essentielle pour la compétitivité des entreprises. Cela est démontré par une panoplie d’études scientifiques portant, entre autres, sur l’analyse et l’identification des variables qui prédisent ou modèrent l’efficacité ou la productivité d’un travailleur, les conditions à mettre en place pour optimiser la productivité et, surtout, les variables psychologiques favorables à l’optimisation du potentiel humain chez les individus dans leur situation de travail. Ce livre a été rédigé de sorte qu’il s’adresse à tout gestionnaire aux prises avec l’une ou l’autre de ces problématiques ou qui désire effectuer un mouvement allant d’une dynamique de gestion des ressources humaines (GRH) vers celle d’une gestion humaine des ressources (GHR) ou encore, qui s’intéresse tout simplement à la gestion axée sur les compétences. Ainsi, le présent ouvrage peut accompagner toute personne devant mettre en place une démarche de gestion axée sur les compétences ou devant élaborer un ou plusieurs outils de gestion dans cette perspective. Il s’avère également un outil de référence fort utile à tout étudiant inscrit dans un cours de niveau universitaire traitant spécifiquement de processus de gestion ou de modèles de gestion axée sur les compétences des individus dans leur situation de travail. Par conséquent, le caractère pratico-pratique a été privilégié pour cet ouvrage afin de bien outiller les gestionnaires dans leur quotidien.
