Book excerpt: As one of the fastest growing trends in higher education, study abroad programs are having a critical impact on the educational landscape. While international study programs generate more revenue and promote campus diversity, there are several challenges that must be considered when integrating non-native students into native universities. Global Perspectives and Local Challenges Surrounding International Student Mobility explores comparative research regarding the implementation of effective strategies needed when working with native and non-native individuals in educational settings. Offering perspectives from international student experiences, as well as views on current mobility trends, immigration policies, and challenges with cultural expectations, this publication will be a critical source for educators, policymakers, and university staff who interact with international students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have high schools killed the American Dream? Across America 857 unmotivated and unskilled students drop out of school each hour of every school day. Billions of taxpayer dollars are wasted. Solutions for this national disaster have eluded educators for decades. Until now. In Maximum Impact Education, Jack Oakes recounts a step-by-step journey that engaged an entire city. Local community leaders are united to overcome such obstacles as economic challenges, a lack of understanding about the importance of culture, resistance to systemic reform, and civic apathy. Maximum Impact Education provides useful insights on the work needed to gradually overcome the silos that divide people in their communities as they struggle to rebuild relevant education-to-employment systems for America's rapidly changing labor market.

This book was released on 2020-04-23 with total page 643 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook provides an overview of the research on the changing nature of work and workers by marshalling interdisciplinary research to summarize the empirical evidence and provide documentation of what has actually changed. Connections are explored between the changing nature of work and macro-level trends in technological change, income inequality, global labor markets, labor unions, organizational forms, and skill polarization, among others. This edited volume also reviews evidence for changes in workers, including generational change (or lack thereof), that has accumulated across domains. Based on documented changes in work and worker behavior, the handbook derives implications for a range of management functions, such as selection, performance management, leadership, workplace ethics, and employee well-being. This evaluation of the extent of changes and their impact gives guidance on what best practices should be put in place to harness these developments to achieve success.

Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Introduction: Defining the task: Microsoft, Google, Cisco or the German E.ON- Führungsgesellschaften : each of them is a well-known company that not only stands for economic success but also for a specific image. Besides, all of them are companies that head the top 100 of the Best Workplaces in Europe in 2009. But, why are companies rewarded as a great place to work at and how do they manage it? Do they only convince with their products and services based on good marketing strategies? In an era of globalisation and a continuous progress in science, technique and economy being competitive poses the most important challenge for a company s success. Of course, product and service quality or customer orientation are important factors but moreover, high qualified people performing in and leading these areas are indispensable. However, even though having an economic crisis actually, this resource is a scarce one and not easy to find. On the one hand, this is caused by a strong socio-demographic change that implicates declining birth rates and thus a rise of ageing workforce. On the other hand, for competing globally companies are demanded to be highly innovative. To expedite innovations and to deal with continuously accelerating progress and more complex technology, skilled workers are needed. Hence, on labour markets the demand for high potentials is increasing whereas the supply is decreasing. As more companies are aware of the possibility to profit from their workforce as a strategic advantage, competition for the best talents grows steadily and leads to a war for talent . Due to the fact that these developments can be recognised all around the world the resource human being becomes incrementally essential. So, companies begin to look for potential specialists and executives not only on national but also on international labour markets. Besides investments in trainings, the further education of older employees and the cooperation with schools or universities, the creation of a strong employer brand may be important. Speaking of buyer s markets employees decide for their individual employer-of- choice. For this purpose, they of course have to know the company and be convinced of the benefits working for it. Thus, to successfully attract and retain the best talent, marketing, brand management and especially a powerful employer brand may be imperative instruments for a company. The creation of a distinctive image and a credible, [...]

Book excerpt: Putting forward a comprehensive view of knowledge with a specific perspective on place and space, this book provides a new perspective on the globalisation of knowledge. Crossing disciplinary boundaries, the principal agenda of this volume is to open up a perspective ’beyond knowledge’ - i.e. beyond the interpretation of knowledge as scientific-technical knowledge. Author Martina Fuchs introduces further kinds of knowledge and interpretation which influence managements’ perception of globalisation and therefore the knowledge which is going global. She refers to knowledge in the sense of experiences, competencies in the production and labour process, as well as mutually shared mental constructs which are embedded in a context of understanding and interpretation. Exploring beyond the meaning of worldwide knowledge as general open access knowledge, this book also discusses barriers to knowledge, problems of transfer, and the influence of governance and control.
