Stakeholder Theory

Stakeholder Theory

R. Edward Freeman; Jeffrey S. Harrison; Stelios Zyglidopoulos

Cambridge University Press
2018
pokkari
The stakeholder perspective is an alternative way of understanding how companies and people create value and trade with each other. Freeman, Harrison and Zyglidopoulos discuss the foundation concepts and implementation of stakeholder management as well as the advantages this approach provides to firms and their managers. They present a number of tools that managers can use to implement stakeholder thinking, better understand stakeholders and create value with and for them. The Element concludes by discussing how managers can create stakeholder oriented control systems and by examining some of the important stakeholder-related issues that are worthy of future scholarly and managerial attention.
Breast MRI

Breast MRI

Breast MRI has emerged as a valuable adjunct to the conventional imaging modalities in the detection of primary and recurrent breast cancer. Yet, most radiologists who rely on MRI do not have knowledge of the fundamentals so essential to achieving and maintaining high image quality. With a focus on the basic imaging principles of breast MRI rather than on mathematical equations, this book takes a practical approach to imaging protocols that helps radiologists increase their diagnostic effectiveness. The text walks the reader through the basics of MRI, making it especially accessible to beginners. From a detailed outline of equipment prerequisites for obtaining high quality breast MRI to instructions on how to optimize image quality, expanded discussions on how to obtain optimized dynamic information, and explanations of good and bad imaging techniques, the book covers the topics that are most relevant to performing breast MRI.
Where the Dragon Meets the Angry River

Where the Dragon Meets the Angry River

China's meteoric rise to economic powerhouse might be charted with dams. Every river in the country has been tapped to power exploding cities and factories - every river but one. Running through one of the richest natural areas in the world, the Nujiang's raging waters were on the verge of being dammed when a 2004 government moratorium halted construction. Might the Chinese dragon bow to the angry river? Would Beijing put local people and their land ahead of power and profit? Could this remote region actually become a model for sustainable growth? Ed Grumbine travelled to the far corners of China's Yunnan province to find out. He was driven by a single question: could this last fragment of wild nature withstand China's unrelenting development? But as he hiked through deep-cut emerald mountains, backcountry villages, and burgeoning tourist towns, talking with trekking guides, school children, and rural farmers, he discovered that the problem wasn't as simple as growth versus conservation. In its struggle to 'build a well-off society in an all-round way', Beijing juggles a host of competing priorities: health care for impoverished villagers; habitat for threatened tigers, cars for a growing middle class; clean air for all citizens; energy to power new cities; and, rubber for the global marketplace. All the issues China faces are bound together - and to larger forces in Asia, the United States, and the world. "Where the Dragon Meets the Angry River" is an incisive meditation on the fate of China and the planet. Will the Angry River continue to flow? Will Tibetan girls from subsistence farming families learn to read and write? Can China and the U.S. come together to lead action on climate change? Far-reaching in its history and scope, this unique book pieces together the many facets of conservation and development in China, from the poorest rural hamlets to a globalized world. Ed Grumbine doesn't have a crystal ball, but he does show us the real-world consequences of decisions now being made in Beijing and beyond.
Bridging the Values Gap: How Authentic Organizations Bring Values to Life
Business has a values problem. It's not just spectacular public scandals like Enron (which, incidentally, had a great corporate values statement). Many companies fail to live up to the standards they set for themselves, alienating the public and leaving employees cynical and disengaged - resulting in lower productivity, less innovation, and sometimes outright corruption. The reason, argue top scholars and consultants Edward Freeman and Ellen Auster, is that most companies' values are handed down from on high, with no employee input or discussion. This practically invites disconnects between intention and reality. To bridge this values gap, Freeman and Auster provide a process, Values through Conversation, that focuses on four key types of values: introspective (reflecting on who we are and how we do things), historical (understanding our past and how it influences us), relational (asking how we can best work together), and aspirational (articulating our hopes and dreams). By developing values through discussions - casual or formal, one-on-one or in groups - VTC ensures that they are dynamic and evolving, not static words on a wall or a website. Freeman and Auster offer advice, real-world examples, and sample questions to help you create values that are authentic and embraced because they are rooted in the lived experience of the organization.
Sinun jumalasi hallitsee

"Ihmisjoukot ovat matkalla iankaikkiseen kadotukseen. Maailmasta on katoamassa kaikki vähäinenkin kauneus ja hyvyys. Luonto raivoaa ja kouristelee katastrofeissaan. Seurakunnat ovat kuihtuneet penkkeihin vailla vastauksia maailmalle joka nääntyy, kun se ei tunne Jumalaa. Missä on Jumala? Missä on se Raamatun Jumala, jonka käsin kosketeltava todellisuus kerran ravisteli maailmaa alkuseurakunnan kautta? Edward Miller toimi lähetystyöntekijänä Argentiinassa 1950-luvulla. Hän uskalsi esittää nämä kysymykset ja astua uskonnollisten perinteiden ulkopuolelle. Millerin ainoa kaipaus oli löytää Jumalan todellisuus. Seurauksena oli uskomaton matka Jumalan syvyyksiin, joka ravisteli koko Argentiinaa tavalla, jollaista ei ollut koskaan aikaisemmin nähty. Jumala laskeutui ihmisten keskelle."

First published in 2013, Maritime Heritage of Gujarat, Kathiawad and Kutch spans over four thousand years, uncovering the region’s maritime traditions dating back to the Indus Valley Civilization. Marine archaeological excavations have revealed artifacts that highlight Gujarat’s ancient trade links with Egypt, Mesopotamia, Bahrain, and others. The state’s maritime legacy is reflected not only in archaeological findings but in literature, sculptures, memorial stones (palayas), boat-building traditions, seamen’s manuals (pothis), daily accounts (roznamas), living practices, customs, trade accounts, and others. Situated on India’s northwestern coast, Gujarat is the country’s principal maritime state, with a strategic 1600 km coastline—one-third of India’s total—offering proximity to the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and Pakistan. Today, the Gulf of Kutch and Gulf of Khambhat are emerging as industrial and energy hubs for the state and the nation. This book is ideal for maritime historians, cultural scholars, and readers interested in Gujarat’s rich coastal heritage.
