"Managers Learning in Action" takes a wholly original approach to
organizational learning. Rather than offering either a purely
practical or theoretical context, this text is written by a team of
managers and academics, combining theory and practice to create a
holistic, and above all realistic, exploration of learning at work.
The managers writing in this text offer real life examples of
management challenges they have met. Whether rescuing an ailing
organization or managing inter-organization relations, managing
change or managing human resources, many of today's crucial
management challenges are addressed. Covering a range of sectors,
the organizations studied include those in:
- hi-tech manufacturing,
- engineering,
- telecommunications,
- health care,
- transport,
- government agencies.
Contributors are drawn from three well-established academic
programs: the Irish Management Institute/ University of Dublin
Masters in Management Practice; the US Benedictine University PhD
in Organizational Development; and the Henley Management College
DBA and edited by the academic directors of these programs.
By offering these managers' own reflections on their experiences in
the context of relevant management theory, this text provides an
important and innovative contribution for those both studying
organizations and for those managers who are currently learning and
developing at work.

This is an EXACT reproduction of a book published before 1923. This
IS NOT an OCR'd book with strange characters, introduced
typographical errors, and jumbled words. This book may have
occasional imperfections such as missing or blurred pages, poor
pictures, errant marks, etc. that were either part of the original
artifact, or were introduced by the scanning process. We believe
this work is culturally important, and despite the imperfections,
have elected to bring it back into print as part of our continuing
commitment to the preservation of printed works worldwide. We
appreciate your understanding of the imperfections in the
preservation process, and hope you enjoy this valuable book.
This book offers an up to date exposition of nonlinear phenomena in
random and inhomogeneous media which provides recent results on the
combined effects of nonlinearity and inhomogeneity, including
random inhomogeneity. The topics covered include recent
developments within such popular areas as nonlinear photonic
crystals, inhomogeneous optical fibres (dispersion management),
discrete nonlinear lattices, discrete breathers, Bose-Einstein
condensates, ultra-short optical pulse, Josephson lattices, various
types of inhomogeneous waveguides and nonlinear quantization.

In the last week of June 1996 the 9th conference of the European
Consortium for Math- ematics Industry, ECMI 96, took place at the
Technical University of Denmark. The present volume of papers is a
selection among the almost 200 contributions to the con- ference.
As a logo on the announcements of the conference the organising
committee chose a picture of the connection between Denmark and
Sweden which is currently under construction. We chose this picture
primarily because of the elegant and decorative lines of the
bridge, but for other reasons as well: Denmark is a country of
islands, and the art of building bridges has a long tradition here.
Danish civil engineers have built bridges all over the world and
have been rated among the most competent experts in their field.
Many have acted as consultants as well as professors at the
Technical University of Denmark, and one of them once said: To
build a bridge you need steel and mathematics. We think that this
selection of papers with its broad spectrum of industrial top- ics
proves that the importance of mathematics is continuously growing.
Mathematics has penetrated subjects far beyond traditional
engineering applications and in more and more places it becomes
natural to add mathematics to the list of things you obviously need
to succeed.
"Livet sker i skift fra nogle vigtige mennesker til andre vigtige
mennesker, og i springet er vi alene. Vi g r fra familien til
kammeraterne, og fra skolekammerater til andre kammerater og k
rester. Der, i luften mellem det ene og det andet, kan angsten opst
. N r vi er bange i m rket, er vi samtidig bange for at v re alene.
Situationen med nattem rket har en symbolsk betydning, som handler
om at v re alene og uden hj lp. M rket afsk rer os fra de andre, og
s er vi overladt til os selv p godt og ondt."
