Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Leadership is essential in any organization whether it is for-profit or not-for-profit. The way one leads will determine the success or failure of the organization. The organization's success depends on whether the organization's leadership is ethical or unethical. In this study, the Delphi method was used to identify unique and essential characteristics of effective ethical leadership in for-profit and not-for-profit organizations in New York City. Surveys were used to solicit the opinion of the panelists who were leaders from different for-profit and not-for-profit organizations in New York City. There were three rounds of survey questions conducted. In round 1, the leaders were given two open-ended questions. In round 2, the panelists were asked to prioritize the ethical and effective characteristics generated from round 1 using a constant sum scale. In round 3, the results of round 2 were used to formulate the question for round 3. Recommendations were made as to how the information gathered from the different rounds of surveys could be used in selecting effective ethical leaders in the hiring process for the efficient operations of businesses. 200 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -Medical students and physicians in training are required to think on their feet and be able to apply information more than recall facts. Interactive lecturing is particularly important in medical education as it promotes active learning and student participation. Doctors are traditionally trained to treat patients but not to supervise, although they are frequently expected to do so and often find it challenging. Planning and developing a medical residency-training curriculum is a process that involves external and internal influences. Understanding these influences and their scope of involvement will help planners recognize the drivers and barriers of curriculum design. The first chapter discusses the internal and external influences on planning an education program. The second chapter discusses the challenges of large group teaching and the place of blended learning in health professions education. The third chapter offers a practical and informative guide to good clinical supervision. The final chapter discusses the essential role of assessment in medical education while critiquing various commonly used assessment methods including MCQs, OSCEs, portfolios and peer assessment.OmniScriptum SRL, Str.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - Print on Demand Titel. Neuware -A principle for designing self-adjusting mechanisms by insert additional degrees of freedom into the machine is described. In these mechanisms, interaction of the working tool with the material being worked upon automatically sets its unique velocity, and if the external resistance is velocity-dependent the machine attains a stable operation. One of these principles is a type of servomechanisms, the advantage of it is a direct mechanical control without conversion of input into any control signals. These devices are less complex than traditional controllers, and are much easier to design. Another one is a self-adjusting elevator with one and half degrees of freedom. It contains two linked parts, each capable of working only in strictly unidirectional mode - a cable and a rod connected to a piston-cylinder assembly; their alternate action switches spatial structure of the mechanism at a required time. The third one is a portable device for lowering loads, proposed, in particular, as self-rescue gear. Finally, the book describes a ¿mechanical rectifier¿ that allows effectively utilize energy of any chaotic motion, such as surf waves, detrimental machine vibrations, etc.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 72 pp. Englisch.…
