Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How leaders from the best workplaces build trust in their organizations The Trustworthy Leader reveals the benefits organizations enjoy when trustworthy behavior is practiced consistently by their leaders. Drawing from examples from the Best Companies to Work For, Lyman, cofounder of Great Place to Work Institute, explains that being trustworthy means that leaders' behaviors are rooted in their commitment to the value of trust and not simply in an imitation of the practices of others. She identifies six elements that reflect a leader's trustworthiness: honor, inclusion, engaging followers, sharing information, developing others, and moving through uncertainty to pursue opportunities. Features leaders from great companies such as REI, Wegman's, R.W. Baird, TDIndustries, and more Based on more than 20 years of rigorous research into the value of trust in companies large and small and its link to financial and organizational performance Published to coincide with the release of the FORTUNE 100 Best Companies to Work For 2012 list This book offers a key to developing high levels of trust, a critical endeavor in an age when seemingly every day a story of a leader's lapse in ethical behavior makes headlines.

Book Ontology Based Data Access Leveraging Subjective Reports

Download or read book Ontology Based Data Access Leveraging Subjective Reports written by Gerardo I. Simari and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SpringerBrief reviews the knowledge engineering problem of engineering objectivity in top-k query answering; essentially, answers must be computed taking into account the user’s preferences and a collection of (subjective) reports provided by other users. Most assume each report can be seen as a set of scores for a list of features, its author’s preferences among the features, as well as other information is discussed in this brief. These pieces of information for every report are then combined, along with the querying user’s preferences and their trust in each report, to rank the query results. Everyday examples of this setup are the online reviews that can be found in sites like Amazon, Trip Advisor, and Yelp, among many others. Throughout this knowledge engineering effort the authors adopt the Datalog+/– family of ontology languages as the underlying knowledge representation and reasoning formalism, and investigate several alternative ways in which rankings can b e derived, along with algorithms for top-k (atomic) query answering under these rankings. This SpringerBrief also investigate assumptions under which our algorithms run in polynomial time in the data complexity. Since this SpringerBrief contains a gentle introduction to the main building blocks (OBDA, Datalog+/-, and reasoning with preferences), it should be of value to students, researchers, and practitioners who are interested in the general problem of incorporating user preferences into related formalisms and tools. Practitioners also interested in using Ontology-based Data Access to leverage information contained in reviews of products and services for a better customer experience will be interested in this brief and researchers working in the areas of Ontological Languages, Semantic Web, Data Provenance, and Reasoning with Preferences.

Book Leveraging Trust in Buyer Seller Relationships to Battle Market Turbulence

Download or read book Leveraging Trust in Buyer Seller Relationships to Battle Market Turbulence written by Stephanie Mangus and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The differences between business trust and personal trust are often overlooked as the underlying mechanisms of social capital, which firms and their customers can draw upon to navigate a turbulent marketplace. Specifically, the authors find business and personal trust have distinct positive effects on building satisfaction and loyalty in buyer-seller relationships. However, the relative importance of business and personal trust on relationship performance changes when both types of trust are combined, especially as perceived market turbulence increases. These results support tenets of social capital theory and relationship marketing literature that suggest the personal side of buyer-seller relationships plays an important role in generating positive performance. As B2B buyers and sellers collaborate to navigate rapid changes in the business environment, perceived market turbulence exacerbates the relative effects of business and personal trust on relationship performance.

Book Corporate and Financial Intergenerational Leadership

Download or read book Corporate and Financial Intergenerational Leadership written by Julia Margarete Puaschunder and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-12-03 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intergenerational predicaments of climate change, over-indebtedness and demographic aging of the Western world population put pressure on future generations. As such, this book explores how corporate and financial social responsibility can leverage intergenerational harmony. The concept of responsibility is shown to underlie the international emergence of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), while the book also describes the rise of Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) in the international arena and the intrinsic socio-psychological motives of socially responsible investors. As shown here, in this age of climate change, over-indebtedness and demographic aging, future corporate and financial intergenerational leadership may continue to embrace social responsibility in order to ensure a sustainable future for humankind.

Book Leveraging

    Book Details:
  • Author : David M. Anderson
  • Publisher : Springer
  • Release : 2014-06-04
  • ISBN : 3319060945
  • Pages : 205 pages

Download or read book Leveraging written by David M. Anderson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-06-04 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book considers the current domestic and global political and economic landscape and will show that there are three different but related kinds of leverage that together have emerged as the dominant strategy in economics, politics and international relations. The economic crisis of 2008-09 was called by most economists a crisis of “over-leverage.” Yet no one has argued that there has also been a leverage crisis or at least a “leverage challenge,” in other aspects of life. The This book argues that there is a “leverage mean” in between the extremes of too little leverage and too much leverage that provides the basis for resolving the various crises and challenges. This book, which grows out of a Brookings Institution paper “The Age of Leverage,” will analyze bargaining leverage, resource leverage and economic investment leverage and should draw the attention of students and teachers in political and economic philosophy.
