Download or read book Corporate Communications written by Lars Thoeger Christensen and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2008-02-28 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of corporate communications describes the practices organizations use to communicate as coherent corporate `bodies′. Drawing on the metaphor of the body and on a variety of theories and disciplines the text challenges the idealized notion that organizations can and should communicate as unified wholes. The authors pose important questions such as: - Where does the central idea of corporate communications come from? - What are the underlying assumptions of most corporate communications practices? - What are the organizational and ethical challenges of attempting truly `corporate′ communication? Clearly written with international vignettes and executive briefings, this book shows that in a complex world the management of communication needs to embrace multiple opinions and voices. Rewarding readers with a deeper understanding of corporate communications, the text will be a `must read′ for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and scholars, in the arenas of corporate communications, organizational communication, employee relations, marketing, public relations and corporate identity management. Practitioners in these areas will be provoked to re-examine their assumptions and habits.
Download or read book Corporate Entrepreneurship written by Vijay Sathe and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2007-02-15 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do large corporations encourage their senior managers to become more entrepreneurial? This is a key question which is seldom addressed in mainstream entrepreneurship studies. Professor Sathe has written this study based on hundreds of hours of interviews with senior managers to help understand why some organizations and some top managers are better than others in fostering entrepreneurship leading to successful new business growth. Corporate Entrepreneurship explores the real world of top managers in a systematic and comprehensive way, examining business realities, the management culture, the corporate philosophy, the organizational politics, the personalities and the personal agendas of the people at the top. The book offers both a theory of corporate entrepreneurship and practical advice on how to manage it better. An interesting and valuable contribution to the literature on strategic management, this is a book that will appeal to graduate students, researchers and reflective practitioners.
Download or read book The Action and Adventure Cinema written by Yvonne Tasker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-08-19 with total page 815 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This exciting collection addresses action and adventure from the silent to the contemporary period exploring diverse questions of aesthetics, industry and ideology. Action has established itself as one of the leading commercial genres of the New Hollywood cinema, generating extensive debate in the process. Contributors consider how action might best be defined, how it has developed historically, and how it works formally. The critical reception and standing of action and adventure cinema is considered in relation to questions of national culture, violence and the 'art' of cinema. Themes explored include genre and definitions; early action, sensation and melodrama; authorship and action; national and transnational action-adventure traditions; action aesthetics; spectacle and narrative; stars and bodies; class; gender; race and ethnicity. Attempting to evaluate the significance of this type of filmmaking for both popular cinema and film studies, the book underlines the central place of action and adventure within film history.
Download or read book Economy written by Ron Martin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 723 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic geographers have always argued that space is key to understanding the economy, that the processes of economic growth and development do not occur uniformly across geographic space, but rather differ in degree and form as between different nations, regions, cities and localities, with major implications for the geographies of wealth and welfare. This was true in the industrial phase of global capitalism, and is no less true in the contemporary era of post-industrial, knowledge-driven global capitalism. Indeed, the marked changes occurring in the structure and operation of the economy, in the sources of wealth creation, in the organisation of the firm, in the nature of work, in the boundaries between market and state, and in the regulation of the socio-economy, have stimulated an unprecedented wave of theoretical, conceptual and empirical enquiry by economic geographers. Even economists, who traditionally have viewed the economy in non-spatial terms, as existing on the head of the proverbial pin, are increasingly recognising the importance of space, place and location to understanding economic growth, technological innovation, competitiveness and globalisation. This collection of previously published work, though containing but a fraction of the huge explosion in research and publication that has occurred over the past two decades, seeks to convey a sense of this exciting phase in the intellectual development of the discipline and its importance in grasping the spatialities of contemporary economic life.

Book excerpt: Verena Tovick-Ra, beautiful, bronze explorer as well as the princess of Vixen had been sent out on many missions before. This present mission, more important and more simple than all the others, had developed into a lengthy, complex, tormenting situation. Lengthy, for it took longer than anticipated to find a planet that sustained compatible males for the Sisters of Vixen to obtain as mates. All their men had died suddenly by a mysterious plague they could not cure. Complex were their dealings with the males of Earth they had obtained. Converting their ship into a workplace had been simple, making them believe that they were still on Earth instead of flying through space toward their new destiny was easy. Getting used to their large size and manner was another matter. These males actually thought that they were equal to females, and worse yet, should be treated with higher regard! Verena's dealing with the one male who had been watching them before they left Earth and knew of the abductions was the most complex of situations. Jordan Mitchell, pale, large and bulky was determined to get back to Earth. Of course he could not return. He was her future mate. Jordan's resistance was the last factor of this most difficult trip. Having marked him as her own and not following with the traditional Ceremony of Unity Verena's very life was at risk. Add to that an unwarranted attacked by a neighboring planet resulting in a forced alliance with their new mates as they fight against a conspiracy toward Vixen. Where will it all lead?
