This third edition of Competing Values Leadership serves as the key
source for understanding and using the Competing Values Framework,
one of the most widely used and highly cited frameworks in the
world for understanding human behavior, leadership, and
organizations. The authors of the framework, who have been at the

more than four decades, explain how it helps foster successful
leadership, innovation, culture change, financial performance,

evidence for its validity, reliability, and usefulness. The authors
also provide practical tools and actions that can assist any
organization in improving its performance. This book is widely
applicable to several fields, including financial strategy, culture
change, human resource management, leadership roles, and
organizational change. Both academics and business leaders will
find it to be an illuminating and useful tool and reference. It has
also proven to be a valuable resource in executive education
programs.
While digital tools are not new to museum management, more
activities are being performed through their use in order to
attract visitors, enrich the cultural experience, vary the
experience context, and innovate the cultural industry. However,
these tools need to be tested in order to understand the effects
they have on both museum offerings and visitors. Further
perspectives and insights are needed on the implementation of these
digital instruments in museums. Museum Management in the Digital
Era combines theoretical efforts and empirical research to
contribute to the debate on museum management in a digital context.
It further observes, tracks, and assesses the ongoing changes
brought on by digital solutions. Covering topics such as
organizational change catalysts, sustainability of cultural
heritage, and phygital experience, this book is an excellent
resource for museum managers, museum curators, computer
specialists, students and educators of higher education,
researchers, and academicians.
Organizations who want to keep their competitive advantage in
global markets need to be able to successfully operate across
cultures. The challenge is that there are currently not many cases
that integrate elements of global competency that represent the
challenges and idiosyncrasy of operating in multicultural business
environments. Cases on Global Leadership in the Contemporary
Economy is a critical reference source that focuses on cases that
present scenarios of organizations or individuals who are immersed
in environments that are impacted by cultural factors and how these
factors affect skills related to global leadership. It presents
research on the impact of cultural dimensions in leadership, the
importance that understanding culture can have on the effectiveness
of international business strategies, and how motivation is
perceived differently across cultures. Featuring coverage on a
broad range of topics such as knowledge management, social
enterprise, and global business, this book is ideally designed for
managers, executives, human resources officials, government
officials, students, professionals, and researchers.
Different organizational instruments have been developed and
adapted with proven reliability and validity to measure
organizational attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors. These new data
collection instruments can be used in organizational management and
leadership, including human research development. This technology
will enhance data collection, reliability, and accurately assess
management and leadership for improved organizational outcomes. Now
that this new style of data collection and measurement has entered
the workplace, it is essential to understand both the benefits and
challenges of these newly developed instruments as well as looking
at how they are used, where they are implemented, and how the
technology itself functions. Advancements in Organizational Data
Collection and Measurements: Strategies for Addressing Attitudes,
Beliefs, and Behaviors includes a collection of 15 newly developed
organizational instruments with proven reliability and validity
meant to measure organizational attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors.
Additionally, chapters will address methodological issues related
to scale development and use as well as specific technologies used,
such as the use of machine learning in future performance
assessment. This book is ideal for faculty, consultants, and
managers, along with practitioners, stakeholders, researchers,
academicians, and students interested in advancing the theoretical
understanding and the practical application of using newly
developed instruments for addressing organizational attitudes,
beliefs, and behaviors.
