Ruiz Vázquez and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La presente tesis doctoral lleva por título: “La influencia de las tecnologías avanzadas de manufactura y las habilidades en el incremento del performance de las empresas de manufactura españolas”. En los últimos tiempos, el mercado laboral alrededor del mundo ha mostrado cambios debido a la introducción de nuevas tecnologías. Tanto en EE.UU como en varios países europeos se ha presentado un fenómeno de polarización del empleo, es decir, un aumento en la demanda de trabajadores de alta y baja cualificación y, una disminución en la demanda de trabajadores con mediana cualificación. Este fenómeno de polarización laboral ha sido observado también en España y ha sido documentado por algunos autores (Anghel et al., 2014; Fernández et al., 2015). Con el fin de explicar este fenómeno han surgido dos marcos teóricos: el Skill Biased Technical Change (SBTC de aquí en adelante) y el Routine Biased Technical Change (RBTC de aquí en adelante). Aunque ambas teorías comparten dos componentes principales (las tecnologías de información y comunicación y, la alta cualificación de los trabajadores), el RBTC añade la necesidad de contar también con personal con baja cualificación para realizar aquellas tareas no-rutinarias que son necesarias en las empresas y que no necesariamente están directamente ligadas con el uso de las nuevas tecnologías. El RBTC está fundamentado en la hipótesis de la rutinización, la cual argumenta que: mientras las máquinas no pueden sustituir fácilmente las tareas interactivas no-rutinarias ubicadas en la parte más baja de la jerarquía ocupacional, si se hacen cargo fácilmente de las tareas rutinarias típicamente realizadas en empleos de mediana cualificación. La tecnología es, entonces, vista como complementaria tanto para empleos analíticos altamente remunerados, como para aquellos interactivos bajamente remunerados (Oesch & Rodríguez, 2011). La teoría del RBTC ofrece entonces, de acuerdo a Lindley y Machin (2014), un refinamiento a la explicación ofrecida por el SBTC. En la revisión de la literatura de este proyecto sobre la relación que existe entre las TIC (tecnologías de información y comunicación) y las habilidades en el performance de la empresa, encontramos varios estudios que han encontrado una relación positiva entre estas dos variables...

Book CIMOSA  Open System Architecture for CIM

Download or read book CIMOSA Open System Architecture for CIM written by ESPRIT Consortium AMICE and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enterprise operation efficiency is seriously constrained by the inability to provide the right information, in the right place, at the right time. In spite of significant advances in technology it is still difficult to access information used or produced by different applications due to the hardware and software incompatibilities of manufacturing and information processing equipment. But it is this information and operational knowledge which makes up most of the business value of the enterprise and which enables it to compete in the marketplace. Therefore, sufficient and timely information access is a prerequisite for its efficient use in the operation of enterprises. It is the aim of the ESPRIT project AMICE to make this knowledge base available enterprise-wide. During several ESPRIT contracts the project has developed and validated CIMOSA: Open System Architecture for CIM. The CIMOSA concepts provide operation structuring based on cooperating processes. Enterprise operations are represented in terms of functionality and dynamic behaviour (control flow). Information needed and produced, as well as resources and organisational aspects relevant in the course of the operation are modelled in the process model. However, the different aspects may be viewed separately for additional structuring and detailing during the enterprise engineering process.

Book Firms of Endearment

Download or read book Firms of Endearment written by Rajendra Sisodia and published by Pearson Prentice Hall. This book was released on 2003-01-30 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today’s best companies get it. From Costco® to Commerce Bank, Wegmans to Whole Foods®: they’re becoming the ultimate value creators. They’re generating every form of value that matters: emotional, experiential, social, and financial. And they’re doing it for all their stakeholders. Not because it’s “politically correct”: because it’s the only path to long-term competitive advantage. These are the Firms of Endearment. Companies people love doing business with. Love partnering with. Love working for. Love investing in. Companies for whom “loyalty” isn’t just real: it’s palpable, and driving unbeatable advantages in everything from marketing to recruitment. You need to become one of those companies. This book will show you how. You’ll find specific, practical guidance on transforming every relationship you have: with customers, associates, partners, investors, and society. If you want to be great—truly great—this is your blueprint. We’re entering an Age of Transcendence, as people increasingly search for higher meaning in their lives, not just more possessions. This is transforming the marketplace, the workplace, the very soul of capitalism. Increasingly, today’s most successful companies are bringing love, joy, authenticity, empathy, and soulfulness into their businesses: they are delivering emotional, experiential, and social value–not just profits. Firms of Endearment illuminates this, the most fundamental transformation in capitalism since Adam Smith. It’s not about “corporate social responsibility”: it’s about building companies that can sustain success in a radically new era. It’s about great companies like IDEO and IKEA®, Commerce Bank and Costco®, Wegmans and Whole Foods®: how they earn the powerful loyalty and affection that enables truly breathtaking performance. This book is about gaining “share of heart,” not just share of wallet. It’s about aligning stakeholders’ interests, not just juggling them. It’s about building companies that leave the world a better place. Most of all, it’s about why you must do all this, or risk being left in the dust... and how to get there from wherever you are now.

Book Differences and Changes in Wage Structures

Download or read book Differences and Changes in Wage Structures written by Richard B. Freeman and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past two decades, wages of skilled workers in the United States rose while those of unskilled workers fell; less-educated young men in particular have suffered unprecedented losses in real earnings. These twelve original essays explore whether this trend is unique to the United States or is part of a general growth in inequality in advanced countries. Focusing on labor market institutions and the supply and demand forces that affect wages, the papers compare patterns of earnings inequality and pay differentials in the United States, Australia, Korea, Japan, Western Europe, and the changing economies of Eastern Europe. Cross-country studies examine issues such as managerial compensation, gender differences in earnings, and the relationship of pay to regional unemployment. From this rich store of data, the contributors attribute changes in relative wages and unemployment among countries both to differences in labor market institutions and training and education systems, and to long-term shifts in supply and demand for skilled workers. These shifts are driven in part by skill-biased technological change and the growing internationalization of advanced industrial economies.

Book The Flight of the Creative Class

Download or read book The Flight of the Creative Class written by Richard Florida and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2010-01-07 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research–driven and clearly written, bestselling economist Richard Florida addresses the growing alarm about the exodus of high–value jobs from the USA. Today's most valued workers are what economist Richard Florida calls the Creative Class. In his bestselling The Rise of the Creative Class, Florida identified these variously skilled individuals as the source of economic revitalisation in US cities. In that book, he shows that investment in technology and a civic culture of tolerance (most often marked by the presence of a large gay community) are the key ingredients to attracting and maintaining a local creative class. In The Flight of the Creative Class, Florida expands his research to cover the global competition to attract the Creative Class. The USA once led the world in terms of creative capital. Since 2002, factors like the Bush administration's emphasis on smokestack industries, heightened security concerns after 9/11 and the growing cultural divide between conservatives and liberals have put the US at a large disadvantage. With numerous small countries, such as Ireland, New Zealand and Finland, now tapping into the enormous economic value of this class – and doing all in their power to attract these workers and build a robust economy driven by creative capital – how much further behind will USA fall?
