Book excerpt: This book is the first in a series on Chinese management based on the Global Chinese Management Conferences (from 2015 to 2017), an annual conference organized by the Sun Tzu Art of War Institute. The first volume is by FOO Check Teck, professor at Fudan and Hunan University and founding editor of Chinese Management Studies (SSCI), who encourages readers to broaden their minds to embrace the Universe as a Community. The book argues that the lives of all beings are worth preserving and urges the academic community to recognize the ideologies at heart of management and to see research as a deep, reflective thinking process that goes far beyond the testing of hypotheses - great works, lasting 2,500 years are the result of deep reflection upon experiences. It also calls for the re-framing of management integration of a variety of ideological strands, typically in topics in MBA or MPA programs: earnings, mobility of human capital, complex adaptive systems, HRM (in small high-tech firms), technology standardization, Xin (trust: labor relations), multi-leveling, re-forming (hospitals), He-Xie (doctoral work), upgrading (automobile industry). The major consequential consideration must be what it means for people.

Download or read book Diversity Ideologies in Organizations written by Kecia M. Thomas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the increased attention toward diversity in the workplace, the concepts of "diversity initiatives" and "diversity management" have become a common place in many conversations among academics and practitioners alike. The diversity movement in the workplace originated from the increased avocation for equal treatment of minority groups due to the dynamic composition of the modern workforce. Many organizations were forced to face these changes and the dilemma of how to respond to group differences to maintain and/or increase organization effectiveness and productivity. This volume will present new research on the colorblindness versus multiculturalism debate, assist in broadening the diversity ideology conversation, share this conversation across social science domains including industrial/organizational psychology, social psychology, and law and public policy, and highlight how the nature of diversity ideology may be fluid and therefore be different depending on the diversity dimension discussed.

The Holloway Guide to Technical Recruiting and Hiring is the authoritative guide to growing software engineering teams effectively, written by and for hiring managers, recruiters, interviewers, and candidates.

Inside, you'll find know-how from some of the most insightful and experienced leaders and practitioners—senior engineers, recruiters, entrepreneurs, and hiring managers—who’ve built teams from early-stage startups to thousand-person engineering organizations. The lead author of this guide, Ozzie Osman, previously led product engineering at Quora and teams at Google, and built (and sold) his own startup. Additional contributors include Aditya Agarwal, former CTO of Dropbox; Jennifer Kim, former head of diversity at Lever; veteran recruiters and startup founders Jose Guardado (founder of Build Talent and former Y Combinator) and Aline Lerner (CEO of Interviewing.io); and over a dozen others. Recruiting and hiring can be done well, in a way that has a positive impact on companies, employees, and every candidate. With the right foundations and practice, teams and candidates can approach a stressful and difficult process with knowledge and confidence. Ask your employer if you can expense this book—it's one of the highest-leverage investments they can make in your team.
Download or read book Is There a Right Or Left Way to Manage Diversity written by Kalkidan Gossaye and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation examines how values held by Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) influence decision making and strategy in organizations. By integrating research from management and political psychology, this research explores if firm level diversity outcomes such as firm commitment to diversity, top management team (TMT) pay disparity, and firm performance are in part explained by the political ideology of CEOs. The study used empirical analysis of archival data for 182 CEOs in 182 Standard & Poor (S&P) companies from 2010 to 2015. The present study finds empirical support for the direct relationship between political ideology of CEOs and their firm commitment to diversity and firm performance, but not the mediating role of firm commitment to diversity on the relationship. Firms led by conservative CEOs are less likely to signal their commitment to diversity and CEO political ideology is a powerful consideration that influences firm performance regardless of commitment to diversity. This research also finds that firms led by conservatives experience higher pay disparity on their top management teams. Liberal CEOs tend to decrease the variation of compensation among their executives. In addition, the study demonstrates that conservative CEOs have less diversity on their top management teams when compared to liberal CEOs. This work hopes to add to our understanding of diversity management decision-making and strategy by looking at the role of political ideology and continue to add to an emerging literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illuminating the troublesome and disturbing aspects of workplace diversity that tend to be glossed over in most management literature, Managing the Organizational Melting Pot covers key issues such as: individual and institutional resistance, the effectiveness of diversity change efforts, and the less visible ways in which exclusion and discrimination continue to be practiced in the workplace.

Download or read book Work and Authority in Industry written by Reinhard Bendix and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1963 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The wealth of new materials, the comparative framework, the implications for the East-West struggle for power, the very great lucidity with which Bendix writes about complex materials, and not least, the detached, highly scholarly attitude he brings to his work, combine to make this into a sociological research of the first rank." -American Sociological Review "The book is truly global in its approach. It seeks to explain the rationalizations and justifications used in the subordination of employees in work organizations not only in the United States but also in England, Russia, and East Germany." -Industrial and Labor Relations Review Work and Authority in Industry analyzes how the entrepreneurial class responded to the challenge of creating, and later managing, an industrial work force in widely differing types of industrial societies: the United States, England, and Russia. Bendix's penetrating re-examination of an aspect of economic history largely taken for granted was first published in 1965. It has become a classic. His central notion, that the behavior of the capitalist class may be more important than the behavior of the working class in determining the course of events, is now widely accepted. The book explores industrialization, management, and ideological appeals; entrepreneurial ideologies in England's early phase of industrialization; entrepreneurial ideologies in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Russia; the bureaucratization of economic enterprises; and the American experience with -industrialization. This essential text will interest those in the fields of political science, industrial relations, management studies, as well as comparative sociologists and historians. Reinhard Bendix (1916-1991) was professor of sociology and political science at the University of California at Berkeley, from 1947 to 1987. His books include Nation-Building and Citizenship, Embattled Reason, Unsettled Affinities, From Berlin to Berkeley (all from Transaction), Max Weber: An Intellectual Portrait, and Kings or People. Mauro F. Guilln is on the faculty at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and a member of the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton. He has published three books: The AIDS Disaster, Models of Management, and Diversity in Globalization.

Download or read book Corporate Boards Political Ideology Diversity and Firm Performance written by Incheol Kim and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We investigate whether diversity in points of view in corporate boards, as captured by the diversity in political ideology of board members, can affect a firm's performance. We employ personal political contributions' data to measure political ideology distance among groups of inside, outside directors and the CEO. Our empirical evidence strongly supports the notion that outside directors' monitoring effectiveness is more likely to be enhanced when their viewpoints are distinct from those of management. We find that ideologically diverse boards are associated with better firm performance, lower agency costs and less insiders' discretionary power over the firm's Political Action Committee (PAC) spending. Taken together, our results lead us to conclude that multiplicity of standpoints in corporate boardrooms is imperative for board effectiveness.

Download or read book Capitalism Social Privilege and Managerial Ideologies written by Ernesto R. Gantman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 2005. This book analyzes the evolution of administrative thought from the nineteenth century to the present, considering it as ideological discourse. Rather than merely being a succession of fads, Gantman shows how each successive discourse about the organization of work serves to legitimate social interests. The book's compelling conclusion is that instead of a tendency towards increasing theoretical refinement, what is more evident is a trend towards fictionalization, which ends in the contemporary paradigm of flatter, more participative and democratic organizational forms. Students and scholars interested in organization theory, management history, the sociology of work or critical management will gain many new insights from this historical reconstruction of the evolution of management thought.
