Download or read book La Pr ctica Del Liderazgo Gerencial written by Nancy R. Lee and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-05-29 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La prctica del liderazgo gerencial describe al conjunto integral de principios basados sobre conocimiento cientfico incluyente abarcador comprehensivo denominado La organizacin requerida, desarrollada por el Dr. Elliott Jaques y sus colegas mediante el trabajo de investigacin en consultora durante ms de 55 aos en 15 pases. Nancy Lee trabaj con el Dr. Jaques durante ms de 20 aos. Este libro est dirigido a gerentes en todos los niveles, y se refiere al rol gerencial, que es el punto en que ms se necesita contar con guas de accin claras para lograr las metas de la organizacin. La aplicacin de estas ideas tiene por efecto el incremento de la productividad y de la rentabilidad, consolida la confianza y brinda a los empleados un ambiente de trabajo sano, que promueve el desarrollo personal. Su pensamiento fue una reformulacin monumental de las bases de la capacidad humana y de la estructura de las organizaciones, que se refleja en treinta libros. Jaques no slo plante la existencia de ocho niveles diferenciados de pensamiento conceptual entre los seres humanos, sino que tambin elabor las curvas de ese pensamiento durante la vida adulta. A su vez, este desarrollo conceptual sent las bases para una nueva lgica de la estructura organizacional, un campo que hasta entonces haba carecido de esta lgica del liderazgo y de la respondibilidad en las organizaciones. El trabajo de Jaques exige tomar el tiempo necesario para captar su dimensin innovadora. Tambin supone un cambio radical en el modo de elegir a los ejecutivos y de organizar a las empresas. Al igual que todo pensamiento innovador, su trabajo requiere la prueba de efectuar aplicaciones en la propia organizacin. Sin embargo, captar esta complejidad no es necesariamente una tarea abrumadora. En este libro Nancy Lee, ella misma una consultora organizacional consustanciada con los esfuerzos conceptuales de Jaques, ha logrado hacer su pensamiento mucho ms fcil de comprender. Por este motivo, este texto es de suma utilidad para ejecutivos, consultores y universitarios dedicados a construir organizaciones ms eficaces.

Download or read book Courting Turmoil and Deferring Prosperity written by Jorge Garc©?a Garc©?a and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is part of a recently completed research project at the World Bank that reviewed the macroeconomic experience of 18 developing countries from the mid-1960s. The period encompassed two oil shocks, two world recessions, a sharp rise in world interest rates, the debt crisis, and changes in exchange rate regimes. In this context, Colombia provides an almost unparalleled example of steady long-term economic growth despite external shocks, political crises, civil strife, reliance on a single, dominant commodity (coffee), and the rising importance of illicit drugs in the economy. 'Courting Turmoil and Deferring Prosperity' looks at how Colombia managed to avoid major prolonged economic crises against all odds. Its economy has confronted several external and internal shocks from the mid-1960s, mainly due to the country's reliance on exports of coffee, the price volatility of which can greatly affect the economy. The period also witnessed major policy changes, including a long-term shift from an essentially inward-oriented development strategy, based on industrialization through import substitution, to an outward-oriented, export-led strategy. The authors' analysis differs from most existing literature on the Colombian economy in two important ways: it evaluates policy responses to shocks in terms of their success in achieving short-run stabilization, as well as their impact on long-run growth; and it explores the intimate links between economic policies and the specific political and social ideologies, institutions, and structures in Colombia that have historically conditioned government policymaking. The report also highlights the role of prudent macroeconomic policies for crisis avoidance and analyzes the links between fiscal policy, trade policy, and exchange rates.

Download or read book The Effects of Exchange Rates and Commercial Policy on Agricultural Incentives in Colombia 1953 1978 written by Jorge García García and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 1981 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extract: Since the 1930s Colombia's economic policy has been directed to reaching three goals; to maintain self-sufficiency in food, to substitute domestically produced manufactured goods for imports, and in the 1970s to correct an ailing balance of payments by promoting exports. This paper describes Colombia's chosen path of import substitution which reflects that of so many Third World countries. It traces the effect on agriculture of tariffs, severe import restrictions or prohibitions, an overvalued national currency (peso), and export subsidies. The time span of the report is divided into two periods, 1953-67, when import substitution was the primary aim of foreign trade policy, and 1967-78, when exports were encouraged to aid the trade balance.

Download or read book Open economy Politics written by Robert H. Bates and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1999-01-17 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coffee is traded in one of the few international markets ever subject to effective political regulation. In Open-Economy Politics, Robert Bates explores the origins, the operations, and the collapse of the International Coffee Organization, an international "government of coffee" that was formed in the 1960s. In so doing, he addresses key issues in international political economy and comparative politics, and analyzes the creation of political institutions and their impact on markets. Drawing upon field work in East Africa, Colombia, and Brazil, Bates explores the domestic sources of international politics within a unique theoretical framework that blends game theoretic and more established approaches to the study of politics. The book will appeal to those interested in international political economy, comparative politics, and the political economy of development, especially in Latin America and Africa, and to readers wanting to learn more about the economic and political realities that underlie the coffee market. It is also must reading for those interested in "the new institutionalism" and modern political economy.
