Título : Man-made Catastrophes and Risk Information Concealment : Case Studies of Major Disasters and Human Fallibility Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Dmitry Chernov ; Didier Sornette ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Cham : Springer International Publishing Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Número de páginas: XV, 342 p. 25 illus Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-3-319-24301-6 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Business logistics ethics Quality control Reliability Industrial safety Pollution prevention Environmental economics and Management Supply Chain Prevention Control, Reliability, Safety Risk Ethics Economics Clasificación: 658 Empresas. Organización de empresas Resumen: This book discusses the risks of information concealment in the context of major natural or industrial disasters - offering detailed descriptions and analyses of some 25 historical cases (Three Mile Island nuclear accident, Bhopal disaster, Challenger Space Shuttle explosion, Chernobyl nuclear disaster, Deepwater Horizon oil spill, Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear disaster, Enron's bankruptcy, Subprime mortgage crisis, Worldwide Spanish flu and SARS outbreaks, etc.) and applying these insights to selected on-going cases where such information concealment is suspected. Some successful examples of preventive anti-concealment practice are also presented. In the book, the term 'concealment' is used to represent the two distinct behaviors uncovered in the investigations: (i) facts and information about an organization and its functioning being hidden from those that need them - here the concealment can be due to various factors, such as complexity and miscommunication, to name but two - and (ii) the conscious and deliberate action of keeping important information secret or misrepresenting it. This second meaning makes up a surprisingly important part of the evidence presented. Accordingly, emphasis has been put on this second aspect and the approach is more pragmatic than academic, remaining focused on evidence-based practical and useful factors. It raises awareness and provides valuable lessons for decision- makers, risk specialists and responsible citizens alike. This work is also intended as a fact-based reference work for future academic and scholarly investigations on the roots of the problem, in particular regarding any psychological or sociological modeling of human fallibility.

Marketing. Ventas. Distribución Resumen: This book honours the contribution Professor Pascale Quester has made to academia and higher education, through her research, teaching, and leadership. As such, it provides readers with a comprehensive, contemporary perspective on marketing practice with an emphasis on the role of marketing in making a difference. Organisations are interwoven with the society in which they operate and are thus commonly expected to shoulder some responsibility in advancing that society. While there has been significant academic and practitioner focus on corporate social responsibility (CSR), research is often limited to the organisational benefits and implementation of CSR initiatives. In contrast, this book presents a broader perspective, highlighting a variety of actors and approaches that are making a difference to their various stakeholder groups, specifically in the areas of sponsorship, consumer behaviour, education, health and innovation Nota de contenido: The Question of Sponsorship Effectiveness -- Leveraging Research on Activation: Quester and Thompson's (2001) Impact on the Field of Sponsorship -- Sponsorship-Linked Attitudes of Employees of Sponsoring Firms: SMEs vs Large Organisations -- Connected Stadium: A Pillar for Football Clubs' Marketing Development? -- Knowing Me, Knowing You: Mentorship, Friendship, and Dancing Queens -- Beyond the Obvious: Facets of Diversity in Marketing Student Groups -- Student Engagement: A Multiple Layer Phenomenon -- Marketing - Making a Difference for Entrepreneurial Universities -- Improving Innovation Process Performance and Service Quality in Innovation Networks -- Promoting Public Health: Understanding the Limitations of Marketing Principles and the Need for Alternative Approaches -- Contemporary Young Consumers and Food Consumption - Implications for Social Marketing and Research En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-981-10-0464-3 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=41237 Making a Difference Through Marketing : A Quest for Diverse Perspectives [documento electrónico] / Carolin Plewa ; SpringerLink (Online service) ; Jodie Conduit . - Singapore : Springer Singapore : Imprint: Springer, 2016 . - XIV, 282 p. 19 illus. in color : online resource.
