Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mejorar el rendimiento de una organización, a la par que la satisfacción y la realización de las personas que trabajan en ella, es la meta que cualquier buen empresario, gestor o directivo persigue en su día a día. Sin embargo, no todos la logran. Hace falta entrenar mucho el intelecto y la inteligencia emocional, entre otras capacidades, para subirse al podio del éxito en el arte del gobierno de las personas y las compañías. Con el fin de ayudar a cuantos más mejor a conseguir este fin, Javier Fernández Aguado, reconocido profesional del management, capitanea a otros once grandes expertos para ofrecer las claves y las reflexiones a quienes se interesen por este importante asunto. Las perspectivas de José Aguilar, José Manuel Casado, Cosimo Chiesa, Nuria Chinchilla, Luis Huete, Marcos Urarte, Eugenio de Andrés, Enrique Sueiro, Catalina Hoffmann, Christopher Smith y Francisco Misiego cubren tanto el ámbito público como el privado, el de las pymes y el de las multinacionales... Claves del management no es cualquier libro, sino el mejor ejemplo de que España ha dejado de ser importadora de pensamiento directivo para convertirse en exportadora neta del mismo. ¿Te lo vas a perder?

Download or read book Efecto Viral written by Guillermo Beylis and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2020-12-03 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La COVID-19 comenzó como una emergencia sanitaria, pero está evolucionando rápidamente hacia una crisis del empleo. Todavía existe incertidumbre sobre la gravedad del impacto económico de la pandemia. Sin embargo, el lastre para el empleo en la región podría prolongarse más que la propia pandemia. Más allá del impacto inmediato sobre el nivel de empleo, la crisis está profundizando y acelerando la transformación del empleo, anticipando el futuro. Efecto viral: COVID-19 y la transformación acelerada del empleo en América Latina y el Caribe se enfoca en las tendencias subyacentes que han estado cambiando significativamente el mercado laboral en la región: la desindustrialización prematura, la servicificación de la economía y los cambios en las habilidades requeridas en los empleos a medida que avanza la automatización. Las conclusiones de este informe tienen varias implicancias importantes para la política económica. Algunas de estas implicancias están relacionadas con los desafíos de productividad a los que ya se enfrentaba América Latina y el Caribe después del final de la Década Dorada en 2013. Otras implicancias políticas podrían comenzar a ganar relevancia por la crisis de COVID-19. A medida que los sectores se ven afectados de diferentes maneras y el trabajo a distancia se vuelve más común, los Gobiernos deben responder con medidas que apoyen una transformación fluida de los puestos de trabajo, que sean socialmente aceptables y que contribuyan al crecimiento de la productividad, incluida la inversion en el capital humano de la fuerza de trabajo. La transformación acelerada de los puestos de trabajo exige un nuevo planteamiento de la normativa laboral y las políticas de protección social. Los países de América Latina y el Caribe desarrollaron una arquitectura institucional orientada a los trabajadores asalariados del sector formal, que rápidamente se está volviendo anticuada. El informe, por ende, refiere a una agenda política que se ocupe de la regulación flexible de las formas emergentes de trabajo de manera que incentive el empleo y apoye la formalización, ampliando así la cobertura de la protección social a segmentos más amplios de la población.

Book Labour Law and the Gig Economy

Download or read book Labour Law and the Gig Economy written by Jo Carby-Hall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-24 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This international book analyses the impact of digitisation in labour markets, on labour relationships and also on labour processes. The rapid progress of modern disruptive technologies and AIs and their multiple applications to each phase of the labour production system, are changing the production rules on a global scale with significant impacts in every aspect of work. As new technologies transform work patterns and change the type of jobs available - destroying some while creating others - and even the nature of the tasks performed, numerous legal problems arise which are challenging to legislators and legal scholars who need to find appropriate solutions to them. Considering the labour law issues which have been created by technological developments and currently affect the work of millions worldwide, this book highlights the full scope of these issues, suggesting solutions to emerging problems and ways to mitigate the risks brought about through technological advancement. Approaching the present debate with perspectives on legal problems with expertise from a wide range of different countries, this book presents informed and scholarly studies which answer the challenges that new technologies present in labour markets, private lives and labour processes.

Book  Neuromanagement

Download or read book Neuromanagement written by Carlos Herreros and published by Editorial Almuzara. This book was released on 2012-09 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Son compatibles conceptos como felicidad, motivación y participación en el desempeño de un trabajo? Si la respuesta es un sí rotundo, tanto por el bien de la empresa como de su capital humano, ¿por qué no es algo cotidiano en la organización? Carlos Herreros defiende que todo se debe a que aún no se ha producido el cambio de mentalidad necesario hacia una nueva manera de entender la gestión de personas. A partir del conocimiento cada vez mayor de las neurociencias,#Neuromanagement describe cómo mejorar la gestión de las organizaciones y, por tanto, la calidad de vida y productividad de empresas y trabajadores. Para ello, muestra las técnicas con las que sacar el máximo provecho de los trabajadores, animándoles a realizar propuestas sin miedo a represalias, a dar lo mejor de sí mismos e involucrarse en los objetivos de las compañías para beneficio mutuo.

Book Digital Labour  Society and the Politics of Sensibilities

Download or read book Digital Labour Society and the Politics of Sensibilities written by Adrian Scribano and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a multidisciplinary perspective on a set of transformations in social practices that modify the meaning of everyday interactions, and especially those that affect the world of labour. The book is composed of two types of texts: some dedicated to exploring the modifications of labour in the context of the ‘digital age’, and others that point out the consequences of this era and those transformations in the current social structuration processes. The authors examine interwoven possibilities and limitations that act in renewed ways to release/repress the creative energy of human beings, just a few of the potential paths for investigating the connections between work and society that are nowadays involved in the battle of sensibilities.

Book The Routledge Handbook of the Gig Economy

Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of the Gig Economy written by Immanuel Ness and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-10-31 with total page 627 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research on the growth of the precarious economy is of signifi cant interest as the economy increasingly becomes dependent on gig work. However, as platform and automated service work has grown, there remains a chasm in understanding the key aspects of digital labour. This handbook presents comprehensive theoretical, empirical, and historical accounts of the political economy of informal work from the late 20th century to the present. It examines the rich and varied analysis and critique of the informalisation of work, focusing on its most signifi cant theories, intellectual traditions, and authors. It highlights the political, social, cultural, and developmental impact of the deterioration of employment in the Global North and Global South, as well as the extreme threat posed to the planet by the growth of contingent work, poverty, and enduring and increasing inequalities produced and reproduced by the reformation of capitalism in the contemporary age of neoliberal capitalism. The period from the 1980s to the present is marked by the expanded extraction of surplus value from workers through the creation of non-standard jobs and the restructuring of work. A central component of the restructuring of work is the extension of gig employment through the development of algorithmic platforms which direct labourers to perform discrete tasks. This is a definitive collection, representing the primary reference work, contributing to our understanding of the subject. The book is written and presented in a clear manner, accessible to scholars and researchers of international political economy, labour economics, and sociology who are eager for new research examining this phenomenon, as well as specialists in the field of labour relations.

Download or read book GAME CHANGE written by Craig Atkinson and published by PHD. This book was released on 2014-01-21 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cuando los investigadores comenzaron a explorar el grado de inmersión e interés tan grande de la gente en los videojuegos, se quedaron perplejos. ¿Cómo es que la gente pone más esfuerzo en estos juegos que en su trabajo diario y en sus relaciones personales? ¿Por qué cuando juegan están contentos de trabajar tan duro durante tanto tiempo sin recibir un sueldo por ello? ¿Cómo están estos jugadores, tras haber malgastado su juventud encerrados en su cuarto conectados de manera diferente? ¿Estamos presenciando un cambio significativo en la evolución de la psicología humana? Las ideas que emergen de esta investigación tienen repercusiones muy grandes, no solo para el mundo del trabajo, sino también para una incipiente “economía de participación”. Y la “Gamificación”– la aplicación de nociones de mecánicas de juego muy atractivas, programas de fidelización y economía del comportamiento para impulsar la participación del usuario – son la esencia de este tema. A medida que construyamos una nueva economía digital, será casi inevitable que todos tengamos cada vez más tiempo libre – y las plataformas “gamificadas” nos ayudarán a utilizar ese tiempo de manera beneficiosa. GAME CHANGE explora algunas de las iniciativas más revolucionarias que hemos visto en este campo. Desglosa los mecanismos persuasivos del juego y ofrece ideas sobre cómo poner la teoría en práctica. ASÍ QUE, JUGUEMOS. Es hora de seleccionar un avatar y algunos poderes especiales. El viaje a través de este mundo desafiante comienza en la primera página.

Book Tax and Robotics

  • Author : Álvaro Falcón Pulido
  • Publisher : BRILL
  • Release : 2023-12-18
  • ISBN : 9004538518
  • Pages : 193 pages

Download or read book Tax and Robotics written by Álvaro Falcón Pulido and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-12-18 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are standing on the threshold of the robotic era, the fourth industrial revolution. The undeniable impact and consequences of robotics are already raising economic concerns, such as the loss of income tax revenue as robots gradually replace human workers, as well as legal doubts regarding the possible taxation of robots or their owners. Financial law must adapt to this new reality by answering several crucial questions. Should robots pay taxes? Can they? Do they have the ability to pay? Can they be considered entrepreneurs for VAT purposes? These are just some of the many issues that Dr. Álvaro Falcón Pulido lucidly and insightfully addresses in this fascinating new monographic work, which includes an exhaustive bibliography on the subject.

Book The European Digital Economy

Download or read book The European Digital Economy written by Judyta Lubacha and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-12-22 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “digital economy” is a conceptual umbrella referring to markets, organizations and their networks that are based on digital technologies, communication, data processing and e-commerce. It is multidimensional and its dynamic structure must be analysed from various dimensions, such as economic – changes in the nature of resources, production factors and economic processes; technological – technological progress viewed from a macroeconomic perspective vs. technological innovation viewed from a microeconomic perspective; regulatory – challenges facing regulators, new risks affecting the institutional order; and sociological – changes in society’s functioning principles, attitudes towards work and human relations. The purpose of this book is to analyse the effectiveness of digital technologies as well as the fundamental factors that contribute to technological progress in the long run. It also examines structural and qualitative shifts in economies and societies. It investigates many research questions, such as the gap between the level of digital economic development in European Union countries; digital transformation and its impact on workplace skills development patterns; and also the legal framework for data as resource. The book approaches these issues from a multidisciplinary perspective, from law to economics and sociology. It focuses on definitional discussions, the measurement challenges, drivers for digital transition, the impact on labour relations, digital skills and education, data reuse and data extractivism. This is a comprehensive introduction to the different contexts from which the digital economy can be addressed, offering an innovative method for studying this complex phenomenon, and as such, it will be a valuable resource for students, scholars and researchers across a range of disciplines.
