Book Synopsis The Connected Company by : Dave Gray

Download or read book The Connected Company written by Dave Gray. This book was released on 2012-08-30. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The future of work is already here. Customers are adopting disruptive technologies faster than your company can adapt. When your customers are delighted, they can amplify your message in ways that were never before possible. But when your company’s performance runs short of what you’ve promised, customers can seize control of your brand message, spreading their disappointment and frustration faster than you can keep up. To keep pace with today’s connected customers, your company must become a connected company. That means deeply engaging with workers, partners, and customers, changing how work is done, how you measure success, and how performance is rewarded. It requires a new way of thinking about your company: less like a machine to be controlled, and more like a complex, dynamic system that can learn and adapt over time. Connected companies have the advantage, because they learn and move faster than their competitors. While others work in isolation, they link into rich networks of possibility and expand their influence. Connected companies around the world are aggressively acquiring customers and disrupting the competition. In The Connected Company, we examine what they’re doing, how they’re doing it, and why it works. And we show you how your company can use the same principles to adapt—and thrive—in today’s ever-changing global marketplace.

Book Synopsis Adaptability in Adolescents by : Harry Nejad

Download or read book Adaptability in Adolescents written by Harry Nejad. This book was released on 2023-09-29. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses a newly developed concept of adaptability capacity and development as an extension of Charles Darwin’s work on adaptability. It looks at how the human mind uses adaptability resources to deal with life-changing, challenging, and varying circumstances and conditions. The volume presents an integrative process model that assesses the roles of socio-demographic and ability covariates, personality, and other dispositional presage factors in predicting psychological well-being outcomes, such as life satisfaction, happiness, and self-esteem. While exploring the concept of adaptability capacity, the volume focuses on making children and adolescents mentally, emotionally, and behaviorally adaptable. It discusses general and domain-specific constructs relevant to phenomena such as self-regulation, resilience, buoyancy, and coping mechanisms. The book focuses on the development and utilization of treatments to assist individuals in becoming positively adaptable and achieve a higher degree of positive well-being and self-actualization. An important contribution, this book will be of interest to students, researchers and teachers of psychology, educational psychology, and social work. It will also be helpful for academicians, mental health professionals, social workers, psychiatrists, counsellors, and those working in related areas.
