Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Queste Pillole di Management di Strada rappresentano il tentativo di declinare per un pubblico attento, e non necessariamente esperto, esperienze vissute e pensieri maturati in anni di lavoro accanto agli imprenditori e dentro le aziende: proprio "sulla strada"!Tutto quello che viene descritto è entrato dai piedi, è stato digerito a livello di pancia, ha attraversato il cuore ed è poi giunto alla testa per trasformarsi dunque in comandi alle mani per operare e, infine, tornare alle gambe per muoversi.Alla luce della nostra esperienza italiana, unica e irripetibile, irriducibile a formule alchemiche di sorta, con queste pagine provo a formalizzare suggerimenti e riflessioni utili da applicare al mondo dell'impresa, agli affari, al lavoro dei "grandi", e far così del mio meglio per "lasciare il mondo un po' migliore di come lo abbiamo trovato" (B.-P.): buona strada a tutti, e buona lettura!
Download or read book European Narratives on Remote Working and Coworking During the COVID 19 Pandemic written by Mina Akhavan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-02 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book offers a multidisciplinary and comprehensive perspective regarding the immediate and long-term effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on coworking spaces in the European Region. The current pandemic has imposed several effects on work and spaces for work. Some are immediate effects and will last for a short time (such as the closing down of the space), some will last longer (namely, the reorganisation of the space to meet the physical distancing), and some will stay for a long time (remote working and hybrid working). Although the literature on coworking spaces and the effects of the pandemic is growing fast, empirical studies are yet limited. Within this context, this book seeks a twofold aim: (i) to contribute to the fast-growing literature on coworking space and their effects at different scales; (ii) to present a multidisciplinary perspective about the effects of the yet-lasting Corona-pandemic effects on the patterns of remote working and consequently on coworking spaces, as the most diffused form of new working spaces.

Download or read book Coworking Spaces written by Janet Merkel and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-07 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This contributed volume considers the emergence of coworking as centered in labor issues. More specifically, its chapters consider it as a coping mechanism in the worldwide rise of independent modes of work (i.e., self-employment) that leaves more and more workers exposed to precarity as they must organize and manage their own labor. Grounded in this perspective, this volume aims to understand the transformative social and political potentials emerging through coworking as a social and spatial practice. There is a distinct lack of discussion within coworking research on the emancipatory potentials of coworking—and if it is discussed, more cautionary views prevail, highlighting the ambivalence of coworking spaces both as a space of alternative economic practices and as integrated into market economies. The aims of this collection are twofold: First, it aims to make visible the plurality of existing practices around shared resources in coworking and the assemblages of human and non-human actors as agents of change associated with coworking and the re-organization of work and labor power. And second, it aims to develop a more emancipatory narrative for coworking and the role of coworking spaces for workers but also the different spatial contexts in which these spaces are situated. A narrative that does not emphasize entrepreneurship or coworking as the epitome of the ‘neoliberal entrepreneurial self’ as in the dominant interpretations in the current research, but rather one that centers coworking in the creation of meaningful, careful social relationships, supporting empathy and an ethics that recognizes mutual interdependencies and builds a foundation for social change. So, it is about alternative narratives, emancipation politics and the wider social role that coworking spaces might play in neighborhoods, cities or beyond because they are crucial contexts for the formation and maintenance of social relations. With this specific direction, this collection aims to bring coworking research into a fruitful dialog with other research fields-such as sociology of work, feminist perspectives on care, alternative and diverse economies, "post-capitalist" transformation, critical geography, positioning coworking within a range of progressive alternatives in the articulation of economic and social relationships.
Download or read book Ardeth 12 written by AA.VV. and published by Rosenberg & Sellier. This book was released on 2024-03-06 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the backdrop of the New European Bauhaus, our time presents the European designer with three pivotal keywords: beautiful, sustainable, and together. The central question that this issue of "Ardeth" seeks to address is how to employ these three keywords in the best possible way. In essence, it grapples with the question of how to use but not abuse the checkpoints they provide us with to truly grasp the intricacies of their intended applications. The aim is to prevent hastening the transition from words to designs and, ultimately, from designs to the artefacts that make up the space of our day-to-day human existence.

Download or read book Transitions on hold written by Ewa Krzaklewska and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2023-10-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Covid-19 pandemic has thrown into relief some key issues in contemporary youth transitions to adulthood in Europe, presented in this book In early 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic struck Europe with a vengeance. All sections of the population were rapidly affected by the efforts made to limit the deadly impact of the coronavirus: lockdowns and other restrictions on personal movement, the closure of public spaces and limits to association. Young people were perhaps the least at risk in terms of illness and mortality. In other respects, they were disproportionately affected, on account of the closure of educational institutions, the collapse of recruitment to the labour market and the range of challenges surrounding the places and spaces where they lived, whether “at home” or elsewhere. Covid-19 regulations lasted for well over two years and their consequences linger on or persist. The experience of the pandemic affected young people in many ways. This book provides a range of accounts of those experiences, among different sectors of the youth population, in different parts of Europe and among those who sought to provide young people with support. It draws perspectives from pre-existing research projects that were sustained through the pandemic, spontaneous research inquiries and reflective case studies from practitioners in the field. This volume of the Youth Knowledge Book series presents a contemporaneous account of the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic period on young people. It broadly confirms the resulting exacerbation of the inequalities affecting young people in different and cross-sectional ways, as their lives and aspirations were disrupted and put on hold. But it is by no means completely bad news. Young people also displayed creativity, resilience and sometimes resistance during the pandemic, as did some professionals responsible for supporting them. From this diversity of understanding about responses to one crisis, there are important lessons and ideas for youth policy and how it may respond better to similar crises in the future.
Download or read book Urban Policy in the Framework of the 2030 Agenda written by María Ángeles Huete García and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-10-01 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides comparative information about the materialization of the 2030 Agenda in urban policy in ten countries located in Europe and Latin America. The Declaration of Quito is the starting point for the implementation of SDGs into public policies in urban areas. However, there are fewer efforts to understand the impact that the 2030 Agenda and, specifically, the instruments developed for its application in cities. The information of each country is presented in relation to two aspects: the construction of a public policy style in each country and the results and impacts on urban public policies implemented in specific cities within the national frameworks. The first means the emergence of a public policy framework and its materialization in public policy instruments. In this regard, the book raises the following questions: To what extent have the SDGs come to generate a common framework for cities in the countries? And how Urban SDGs are translated to national urban policies? The second, results and impacts at the local level, is related to two aspects: a) substantive: the goals of the policy and b) procedural: management aspects related to the policy design, governance, and institutional capacity building.
Download or read book La moda unisex e la decostruzione del genere un manifesto per la libert di espressione written by MAX EDITORIAL and published by Max Editorial. This book was released on 2024-05-29 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La moda, come espressione culturale, è sempre stata legata alla costruzione delle identità, compreso il genere. Nel corso della storia, l'abbigliamento e gli accessori sono stati utilizzati per differenziare uomini e donne, rafforzando gli stereotipi e limitando la libertà di espressione individuale. Tuttavia, negli ultimi decenni, è emerso un movimento che sfida questa logica binaria: la moda unisex. L'ascesa della moda unisex Le radici della moda unisex possono essere trovate nei movimenti sociali e culturali del XX secolo come il femminismo e la controcultura. La ricerca della parità di diritti tra uomini e donne, combinata con la sfida delle norme sociali tradizionali, ha spinto alla sperimentazione di abiti che trascendessero il genere. Decostruire il binario di genere La moda unisex va oltre la semplice estetica. Rappresenta una critica alla rigidità delle norme di genere e all'idea che i vestiti siano definiti da un sesso specifico. Sfidando questa dicotomia, la moda unisex apre lo spazio alla libera espressione dell'identità individuale, indipendentemente dalle etichette predefinite. Dimostrazioni di moda unisex La moda unisex si manifesta in vari modi, da pezzi classici reinterpretati in stili neutri a design innovativi che trascendono le categorie di genere. Gonne, pantaloni, camicie, vestiti, giacche e accessori possono essere indossati da chiunque, indipendentemente dalla propria identità di genere. Impatto sociale e culturale La moda unisex contribuisce a costruire una società più tollerante e diversificata. Sfidando gli stereotipi e promuovendo l'inclusione, sfida lo status quo e apre lo spazio per un'autentica espressione individuale. La moda unisex ha un impatto anche sull'industria tessile, incoraggiando la creazione di collezioni più fluide e democratiche. Pionieri e Influencer Diversi artisti, celebrità e marchi di moda si sono distinti come agenti di trasformazione nella decostruzione del genere attraverso la moda. Personaggi come David Bowie, Boy George, Tilda Swinton , Jaden Smith, Zendaya e marchi come Thom Browne, Hood di Air , EckhausLatta e Marni sono esempi di pionieri e influenzatori di questo movimento. Il futuro della moda unisex La moda unisex è un movimento in continua evoluzione, con il potenziale di rivoluzionare il modo in cui ci vestiamo ed esprimiamo la nostra identità. Il futuro della moda sta emergendo come uno spazio sempre più inclusivo, dove la fluidità di genere e la libertà di espressione individuale saranno i pilastri di un'estetica innovativa e autentica. La moda unisex è più di una tendenza passeggera. Rappresenta un movimento sociale che sfida le norme tradizionali e promuove la costruzione di una società più giusta ed egualitaria. Decostruendo il binario di genere e aprendo spazio alla libera espressione dell'identità individuale, la moda unisex diventa un manifesto della libertà di essere chi sei. Scopri molto di più...
