Download or read book Il ruolo del capitale intellettuale nella creazione e nella comunicazione del valore dell impresa written by Simone La Bella and published by Gangemi Editore spa. This book was released on 2011-12-12T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nella moderna economia della conoscenza il capitale intellettuale, espressione delle risorse immateriali, di cui dispone l'impresa in un dato periodo della vita aziendale, rappresenta, rispetto alle risorse prive dell'elemento della tangibilità, un ruolo fondamentale nella corretta misurazione/rappresentazione delle reali performance aziendali e nella veritiera rappresentazione della grandezza patrimoniale dell'impresa. Infatti, la crescente complessità che ha caratterizzato la gestione d'impresa negli ultimi anni, nonché un ruolo efficace nell'attivazione di sinergie ed una posizione sempre più strategicamente rilevante da parte degli stakeholders nei processi di generazione di valore aziendale, stanno influenzando le imprese ad adottare nuovi modelli di reporting e di accounting, che tengano conto di aspetti e fattori intangibili finora non considerati con la giusta attenzione. In particolare nella prima parte del presente volume vengono evidenziati i principali contributi della letteratura in ordine alla definizione ed alle caratteristiche del capitale intellettuale; nella seconda, invece, viene presentata un'indagine empirica basata sull'analisi di un campione di imprese quotate appartenenti al segmento Star della borsa italiana. L'obiettivo della ricerca empirica consiste nel rilevare alcune ipotesi di studio che prevedono delle relazioni di causalità tra le imprese che comunicano informazioni in ordine agli "intangibles" ed alcuni indicatori di misurazione della "performance" aziendale.
Download or read book World Development Report 2019 written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-10-31 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work is constantly reshaped by technological progress. New ways of production are adopted, markets expand, and societies evolve. But some changes provoke more attention than others, in part due to the vast uncertainty involved in making predictions about the future. The 2019 World Development Report will study how the nature of work is changing as a result of advances in technology today. Technological progress disrupts existing systems. A new social contract is needed to smooth the transition and guard against rising inequality. Significant investments in human capital throughout a person’s lifecycle are vital to this effort. If workers are to stay competitive against machines they need to train or retool existing skills. A social protection system that includes a minimum basic level of protection for workers and citizens can complement new forms of employment. Improved private sector policies to encourage startup activity and competition can help countries compete in the digital age. Governments also need to ensure that firms pay their fair share of taxes, in part to fund this new social contract. The 2019 World Development Report presents an analysis of these issues based upon the available evidence.

Download or read book The Boundaries of Europe written by Pietro Rossi and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europe’s boundaries have mainly been shaped by cultural, religious, and political conceptions rather than by geography. This volume of bilingual essays from renowned European scholars outlines the transformation of Europe’s boundaries from the fall of the ancient world to the age of decolonization, or the end of the explicit endeavor to “Europeanize” the world.From the decline of the Roman Empire to the polycentrism of today’s world, the essays span such aspects as the confrontation of Christian Europe with Islam and the changing role of the Mediterranean from “mare nostrum” to a frontier between nations. Scandinavia, eastern Europe and the Atlantic are also analyzed as boundaries in the context of exploration, migratory movements, cultural exchanges, and war. The Boundaries of Europe, edited by Pietro Rossi, is the first installment in the ALLEA book series Discourses on Intellectual Europe, which seeks to explore the question of an intrinsic or quintessential European identity in light of the rising skepticism towards Europe as an integrated cultural and intellectual region.

Download or read book Gower Handbook of Internal Communication written by Eileen Scholes and published by Gower Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employee commitment can mean the difference between success and disaster. So internal communication is now a key issue for senior management. This new Gower Handbook recognises IC's emergence as a new management discipline. It is aimed both at the generalist manager who needs to come to terms with the theoretical and technical aspects of internal communication, and the media specialist now seeking wider management skills and perspectives.Early chapters examine changes in IC's strategic context. These include organizations' increasing need for innovation and flexibility; the disappearance of 'loyalty' among employees; growing recognition of the importance of corporate 'brand' and how to sustain it; and the effects on traditional work and management patterns of new computer networks. Step-by-step guides introduce the reader to creating IC strategies and to carrying out research and measurement. Over 45 communication techniques, from team meetings to web sites, are evaluated for use in differing circumstances. The Handbook also looks at how to set about developing good communicators; and finally presents 16 practical case studies in key application areas. Organizations featured are all leaders in their field, among them Andersen Consulting, The Body Shop, BP Chemicals, IBM, The Boots Company, Glaxo Operations, Rover, SmithKline Beecham, WH Smith and Unigate Dairies.Eileen Scholes and her team have compiled what is probably the most comprehensive - and is certainly the most authoritative - guide available to the principles and practice of internal communication.

Download or read book The Work of Art written by Gérard Genette and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What art is--its very nature--is the subject of this book by one of the most distinguished continental theorists writing today. Informed by the aesthetics of Nelson Goodman and referring to a wide range of cultures, contexts, and media, The Work of Art seeks to discover, explain, and define how art exists and how it works. To this end, Gérard Genette explores the distinction between a work of art's immanence--its physical presence--and transcendence--the experience it induces. That experience may go far beyond the object itself.Genette situates art within the broad realm of human practices, extending from the fine arts of music, painting, sculpture, and literature to humbler but no less fertile fields such as haute couture and the culinary arts. His discussion touches on a rich array of examples and is bolstered by an extensive knowledge of the technology involved in producing and disseminating a work of art, regardless of whether that dissemination is by performance, reproduction, printing, or recording. Moving beyond examples, Genette proposes schemata for thinking about the different manifestations of a work of art. He also addresses the question of the artwork's duration and mutability.
