Book R  silience organisationnelle

Download or read book R silience organisationnelle written by Guy Koninckx and published by De Boeck Supérieur. This book was released on 2010-02-23 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Toutes les organisations traversent des turbulences et des crises. Ces situations conduisent à des pertes de repères et de sens. Les identités ne sont pas épargnées. Dans de telles circonstances, comment rebondir ? Quels moyens mettre en œuvre pour favoriser la résilience, cette capacité à faire face à l’adversité ? Les auteurs présentent ici le cadre conceptuel de la résilience, différents modèles, une démarche opérationnelle et un ensemble d’outils appropriés. Le modèle CIRERO permet de positionner les organisations sur les trajectoires de résilience. Des stratégies particulières sont recommandées en fonction des situations de crise. Toute personne amenée à mettre en place des conditions favorables à l’émergence de la résilience trouvera, dans ce livre, un guide, une « boîte à outils » et une abondante source d’informations constituées par des retours d’expériences et des études de cas d’organisations amenées à affronter de sérieux bouleversements.

Book La narration de soi pour grandir

Download or read book La narration de soi pour grandir written by Bruno Humbeeck and published by Mols. This book was released on 2013-10-03 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ma vie aurait sans doute changé du tout au tout si un jour, ou plutôt une nuit, presque un matin, j'avais osé parler... Raconter... Mais je me suis tu. Je n'ai rien dit. J'ai laissé le silence s'interpréter... Et elle est partie... Sans comprendre... Ma vie s'en est trouvée désertée. Bien entendu, je l'ai remplie comme je l'ai pu... Plutôt bien somme toute puisqu'il m'en est resté trois merveilleux enfants et que j'y ai été parfaitement heureux... Il n'empêche... Et puis, trente années plus tard, un autre jour ou plutôt une autre nuit, presque un autre matin, j'ai osé parler... Je ne me suis plus tu... J'ai mis des mots sur le silence... Et elle est restée... Pour ensoleiller tout ce qui reste de ma vie... Voilà pourquoi la narration de soi revêt chez moi une telle importance. Elle peut infléchir le cours d'une vie. Elle aurait dû infléchir le cours de la mienne. Et si depuis je passe mon temps à prêter l'oreille à qui veut se faire entendre, à écouter ceux qui cherchent à parler, quitte pour cela à les aider à trouver leurs mots, quitte à traduire en phrases ce qu'ils vivent d'indicible, si je fais tout cela, ce n'est assurément pas de la générosité. C'est juste de la vengeance. Parce que les mots, un jour, m'ont trahi et que la narration, cette fois-là, a cruellement manqué à l'appel. Depuis, je passe mon temps à débusquer les phrases, je me suis fait chasseur de mots et j'essaye d'offrir à toutes les vies bancales que je rencontre une occasion de se raconter, je me suis fait traqueur de maux parce qu'en renonçant à se raconter on peut aussi parfois, je ne le sais que trop bien, se construire de travers ou se reconstruire à l'envers. Voilà pourquoi, en définitive, ce livre pour aider à se raconter, c'est à elle que je veux le dédier... Parce que je me suis tu il y a trente ans... Et que cela, jamais, jamais, je ne me le suis pardonné.

Book L   Urbanisation diversifi  e

Download or read book L Urbanisation diversifi e written by Madio Fall and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Côte d’Ivoire est en quête d’une stratégie de développement qui lui permettra d’atteindre le statut de pays à revenu intermédiaire, ce qui représente un défi qui nécessiterait un taux de croissance annuel de 10 % pendant plus de 13 ans. L’expérience des économies développées et émergentes démontre que le produit intérieur brut (PIB) par habitant augmente avec la progression de l’urbanisation. Néanmoins, l’économie de la Côte d’Ivoire affiche des performances insuffisantes sur le plan de l’urbanisation. L’urbanisation et le revenu par habitant ont une corrélation négative depuis la fin des années 1970, et la pauvreté augmente. Au lieu d’envisager le développement des villes individuellement, un plan d’urbanisation réussie devrait considérer les villes de la Côte d’Ivoire comme un portefeuille d’actifs qui se distinguent les uns des autres par leur taille, leur emplacement et la densité de leur population. Les auteurs de L’Urbanisation diversifiée : Le cas de la Côte d’Ivoire identifient trois types de villes, fondées sur leurs contributions à la croissance et à la création d’emplois : les connecteurs globaux ; les connecteurs régionaux, situées le long des corridors d’échanges et des transports régionaux ; et les connecteurs locaux, qui génèrent les économies de localisation nécessaires à l’agro-industrie. Les parties prenantes des administrations nationales et infranationales et du secteur privé ont formulé une vision commune de l’urbanisation en Côte d’Ivoire : « villes planifiées, structurées, compétitives, attractives, inclusives et organisées autour de pôles de développement ». Afin de réaliser cette vision et d’atteindre le statut de pays à revenu intermédiaire, les décideurs politique ivoiriens doivent agir de toute urgence pour promouvoir une urbanisation diversifiée pour tous les types de villes. Cette présente étude identifie des contraintes principales et des enjeux dans quatre domaines : la planification, les connexions, l’écologisation, et le financement des villes.

This book was released on 2024-02-21 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resilience in healthcare organizations is a complex issue, involving all stakeholders in the healthcare field. It is a highly topical issue, even more so in the wake of the recent health crisis. This book explores the impact of collective intelligence on the resilience of these organizations, and the role played by innovation. Health organizations comprise the structures and systems involved in treating patients, as well as healthcare professionals with medical, social or medico-social expertise, along with institutional and administrative players in the field.

Their diversity is the result of their contributors: university researchers, institutional players from healthcare authorities, practicing caregivers in hospital structures or healthcare coordination support systems, and managers of healthcare structures and systems.

Book Enjeux europ  ens et mondiaux de la protection des donn  es personnelles

Download or read book Enjeux europ ens et mondiaux de la protection des donn es personnelles written by Alain Grosjean and published by Éditions Larcier. This book was released on 2016-02-10 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage offre une analyse des grands enjeux en matière de protection des données à caractère personnel, à la lumière des dispositions de la proposition de règlement européen et des législations européennes en vigueur. Nous assistons actuellement à une véritable révolution sociale, économique et technologique. L’exploitation des données avec le big data, l’internet des objets, va changer le monde. Face aux avancées, mais également aux inquiétudes que cette révolution suscite, il est important de s’appuyer sur les droits fondamentaux. Ainsi l’ouvrage revient sur la jurisprudence tant de la Cour de justice européenne que celle de la Cour européenne des droits de l’homme. Une attention particulière est également donnée au champ d’application territorial de la proposition de règlement et au transfert des données. L’ouvrage met également en relief la perception américaine des règles de protection des données personnelles par rapport aux dernières négociations entre l’Europe et les Etats-Unis ; il traite en particulier du droit à l’oubli, du profilage ou de la notification des failles de sécurité ; il met en exergue les défis de la protection des données personnelles dans le domaine des services financiers, notamment en matière de fraude au paiement. L’ouvrage s’intéresse ainsi non seulement aux mesures à prendre par les entreprises pour respecter les règles de protection des données, mais aussi à la façon des autorités de les faire respecter. Un ouvrage qui propose une approche aussi bien juridique que pratique sur le sujet.

Book Manual for developing intercultural competencies

Download or read book Manual for developing intercultural competencies written by Deardorff, Darla K. and published by UNESCO Publishing. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book presents a structured yet flexible methodology for developing intercultural competence in a variety of contexts, both formal and informal. Piloted around the world by UNESCO, this methodology has proven to be effective in a range of different contexts and focused on a variety of different issues. It therefore can be considered an important resource for anyone concerned with effectively managing the growing cultural diversity within our societies to ensure inclusive and sustainable development. Intercultural competence refers to the skills, attitudes and behaviours needed to improve interactions across difference, whether within a society (differences due to age, gender, religion, socio-economic status, political affiliation, ethnicity, and so on) or across borders. The book serves as a tool to develop those competences, presenting an innovative adaptation of what could be considered an ancient tradition of storytelling found in many cultures. Through engaging in the methodology, participants develop key elements of intercultural competence including greater self-awareness, openness, respect, reflexivity, empathy, increased awareness of others, and in the end, greater cultural humility. This book will be of great interest to intercultural trainers, policymakers, development practitioners, educators, community organizers, civil society leaders, university lecturers and students -- all who are interested in developing intercultural competence as a means to understand and appreciate difference, develop relationships with those across difference, engage in intercultural dialogue and bridge societal divides"--

Book Positive Psychology  Theory  Research And Applications

Download or read book Positive Psychology Theory Research And Applications written by Hefferon, Kate and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Kate Hefferon and Ilona Boniwell have done an excellent job on this introduction to Positive Psychology! I encourage educators, students and everyone else interested in an updated, well-written and culturally balanced approach to the scientific study of human flourishing, to read this highly accessible, yet rigorously crafted text; and to get it under your skin by ways of carefully chosen tests and exercises." Hans Henrik Knoop, Aarhus University, Denmark and President, European Network for Positive Psychology "This accessible, yet comprehensive, book provides an excellent new resource in the area of positive psychology. Students, researchers and practitioners alike will benefit from the skilful and lively integration of theory, research and application. The authors are prominent members of the international positive psychology movement and as such are able to deliver a confident, practical and overarching assessment of the area, integrated into psychology more widely." Angela Clow, University of Westminster, UK "This is an exceptional book that synthesizes more than a decade of positive psychology research into chapters that are engaging, accessible, and educational. Hefferon and Boniwell demonstrate a mastery of the literature through the ways in which they have marshaled the evidence from research and practice into this invaluable resource. This book will become an essential reference guide for researchers, educators and practitioners of positive psychology around the world." Professor Alex Linley, Founding Director, Capp "This book is a valuable resource for students looking for an introduction to Positive Psychology, but also wanting to get a comprehensive and updated overview of this innovative approach to the study of human behaviour and experience. It provides a broad coverage of the most relevant theories and constructs developed within Positive Psychology, and of their relevance for intervention and application in the most diverse life domains. Hefferon and Boniwell use a rigorous though accessible and friendly style of presentation. By means of effective learning supports, they stimulate readers' active engagement in critical reflections on each topic. The authors address the several issues and open questions which still characterize Positive Psychology as a relatively recent domain through a balanced and objective approach." Antonella Delle Fave, University of Milano, Italy "Kate Hefferon and Ilona Boniwell have produced the first textbook which has set out purposefully to support students and teachers in higher education in the exciting new area of positive psychology. The authors have experience of teaching the lectures described in each chapter and the book is written in a way that students will find engaging and fun. Each chapter has clear learning objectives, mock essay questions, measurement tools, summaries and a guide to further resources. The content has been well researched and the early chapters cover the main concepts of positive psychology such as emotions, happiness, wellbeing, optimism, and resilience. The later chapters are more novel and cover interventions and applications all with a critical eye. Of particular note is the chapter on the body in positive psychology - a topic which is frequently omitted from the 'thoughts and feelings' approach of other texts in this area. I would strongly recommend this book to all students and teachers of psychology." Nanette Mutrie, Professor of Exercise and Sport Psychology, Strathclyde University, UK Discover the latest research findings and thinking on the topics of happiness, flow, optimism, motivation, character strengths, love and more! Find out how happiness levels can be increased, what stops us from flourishing and how positive psychology can be applied to many professional disciplines. This new textbook combines a breadth of information about positive psychology with reflective questions, critical commentary and up to date research. It is written in a witty, engaging and contemporary manner and includes: Personal development exercises to help you meld together research and application Mock essay questions to get essay writing going Think about it boxes to get you thinking about the concepts and theories discussed Experiments boxes giving you most influential positive psychology experiments to date Suggested resources guiding you where to go next Measurement tools presenting popular positive psychology tools Time out boxes on key issues, concepts and thinkers Chapter summaries to help you check their understanding Review questions to enhance your learning Positive Psychology is key reading for students taking modules in positive psychology and well-being, and will also be of interest to students of applied, coaching and sports psychology, as well as psychologists, coaches, counsellors and researchers interested in this burgeoning field.
