How Honesty Testing Works (Hardcover): Michael H. Capps, John Miner How Honesty Testing Works (Hardcover)
Michael H. Capps, John Miner
R2,220 Discovery Miles 22 200 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

With the demise of the polygraph following the passage of the Employee Polygraph Protection Act, honesty testing has come to be seen as an alternative approach. But it has become the subject of considerable controversy, some legal enactments, a barrage of union opposition, and a great deal of employer interest. Miner and Capps provide an understanding and the tools necessary to help human resource managers make decisions regarding the use of honesty testing. Generic types of testing instruments are assessed; the writing is straightforward, with all statistical and mathematical concepts presented with sufficient detailed explanation for those without technical training.

The employers' need to protect their organizations and reduce the potential for theft and white-collar crime versus the individual's right to privacy are polarized issues in discussing the use of honesty testing. The authors deal with the restrictions imposed by the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1991 and show that certain features of test scoring were directly influenced by legal considerations. The authors then extend the discussion to the Americans with Disabilities Act and how this enactment affects honesty testing.

Mentoring Wisdom - Living and Leading Well (Hardcover, New): Carson Pue Mentoring Wisdom - Living and Leading Well (Hardcover, New)
Carson Pue
R592 Discovery Miles 5 920 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The role of being a leader is a difficult one. They are often called upon to give wisdom and direction, inspiration and hope, vision and paths of execution. Where does all this come from? It comes from a pool of collective wisdom that is gathered over time. For Christian leaders, it comes from their ability to call upon God to provide them with the wisdom and discernment needed at a particular time. Every great leader has a series of mentors in their life who are providing or have provided wisdom. This wisdom becomes part of the pool from which leaders draw. Many leaders today wish that they had a mentor in their life. Someone who loves them; cares about their leadership and mission; listens carefully to their leadership challenges; and provides reflective feedback that points them both to God and the way forward. Yet all too often men and women find themselves without this great resource. This book is intended to serve as a passive mentor. A passive mentor is someone that we can glean knowledge from even though we may never meet him or her personally. The following pages contain a collection of insights speaking into challenges faced by most leaders. Included with each is a scriptural verse or passage that points towards faith and God's promise to walk with leaders through each day. In each of the topics addressed, Carson will be asking questions about the reader or their leadership while providing some leadership insights he has learned while leading at Arrow Leadership. Each section closes with a prayer that can be used as a guide for a leaders own prayers for the week that follows. Every page invites God to speak to the reader and enjoy the peace of His presence.

In the current dynamic environment, a viable tool known as multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) is increasingly being adopted to deal with complex business decisions. MCDA is an important decision support tool for analyzing goals and providing optimal solutions and alternatives. It comprises several distinct techniques, which are implemented by specialized decision-making packages. This book addresses a number of important MCDA methods, such as DEMATEL, TOPSIS, AHP, MAUT, and Intuitionistic Fuzzy MCDM, which make it possible to derive maximum utility in the area of analytics. As such, it is a valuable resource for researchers and academicians, as well as practitioners and business experts.

Driving Demand for Broadband Networks and Services (Hardcover, 2014): Raul L. Katz, Taylor A. Berry Driving Demand for Broadband Networks and Services (Hardcover, 2014)
Raul L. Katz, Taylor A. Berry
R3,641 Discovery Miles 36 410 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book examines the reasons why various groups around the world choose not to adopt broadband services and evaluates strategies to stimulate the demand that will lead to increased broadband use. It introduces readers to the benefits of higher adoption rates while examining the progress that developed and emerging countries have made in stimulating broadband demand. By relying on concepts such as a supply and demand gap, broadband price elasticity, and demand promotion, this book explains differences between the fixed and mobile broadband demand gap, introducing the notions of substitution and complementarity between both platforms. Building on these concepts, 'Driving Demand for Broadband Networks and Services' offers a set of best practices and recommendations aimed at promoting broadband demand. The broadband demand gap is defined as individuals and households that could buy a broadband subscription because they live in areas served by telecommunications carriers but do not do so because of either economic, limited awareness, or lack of digital literacy reasons. This grouping represents a range from 30% of the population in the US, 40% in Germany, and over 80% in most emerging countries. Research indicates that broadband usage is critical for social development, economic performance, and overall welfare and so it behoves governments to encourage demand. This study is the first of its kind to address the demand side of broadband diffusion, incorporating an economic analysis while offering real world examples of policies and initiatives that have successfully spurred demand in developed and emerging markets alike. This book is intended for policy makers, managers of telecommunications and other technology companies, as well as academics and graduate students in the areas of public policy, economic development, and technology management. This book is an eye-opener for policy makers. Traditionally ICT policy has focused on the supply side. Katz and Berry develop great ideas to leapfrog Internet penetration from the demand side, where the value of the Internet is. - Diego Molano Vega, Minister of Information Technologies and Communications of Colombia This book is an instant classic. It brilliantly and convincingly lays out the case why dealing with inadequate internet penetration has moved from the creation of supply to one of encouraging demand. It provides an information-rich and well-written presentation of the factors holding back people from becoming users, and offers a hugely valuable survey of the various programs around the world to make the broadband internet truly useful to people everywhere. It is the kind of book writers in this field will use constantly. - Eli Noam, Professor of Finance and Economics, Columbia Business School This new study by Katz and Berry examines the rationale for national broadband plans and the evidence for their success in driving demand. It presents the latest data on broadband in a range of case study countries, and provides best practice advice for policy-makers and development practitioners. - Dr Tim Kelly, Lead ICT Policy Specialist, World Bank

Ethics Education of Business Leaders - Emotional Intelligence, Virtues, and Contemplative Learning (Hardcover): Tom E. Culham Ethics Education of Business Leaders - Emotional Intelligence, Virtues, and Contemplative Learning (Hardcover)
Tom E. Culham
R2,765 Discovery Miles 27 650 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Events on Wall Street and Main Street reveal that some business leaders make dramatically unethical self-serving decisions that ignore the public interest. How can business schools educate future business leaders to make ethical decisions? Unfortunately, most business schools fail in teaching ethical decision-making. They erroneously assume that such decision-making is primarily conscious and reason-based, reflecting the western cultural orientation toward science and logic. In this book, Thomas Culham cites neurological findings showing that unconscious processes and emotions play a much more significant role than reason in making ethical decisions. Culham urges business schools to teach a modified form of emotional intelligence, linked with research-supported contemplative practices from the great meditative traditions. This book details the author's ethics curriculum and explains its successful application at the Sauder School of Business at the University of British Columbia. This fascinating, interdisciplinary, and highly practical curriculum integrates philosophy (virtue ethics), Daoist thinking, psychology, and neuroscience. This curriculum intends to transform the way business schools teach decisionmaking. Such an effort might just transform the way we do business.
