Описание: Persistent unemployment and rising wage differences at the expense of low-skilled workers has characterized the labor market in most developed countries. Since the last economic crisis, unemployment rates and pay inequalities have increased among workers under 25 years of age, thus creating an ever-widening financial gap for an entire generation. Those who do not have a qualification or post-secondary diploma often find themselves in precarious jobs at minimum wage. Countries are now working to adopt reforms to improve the situation of young people in the labor market.

International Perspectives on the Youth Labor Market: Emerging Research and Opportunities provides emerging research exploring the theoretical and practical aspects of financial inequality and applications within global economics. Unlike literature that focuses only on developed countries, this book also addresses emerging economies whose labor market is often characterized by a dualism that makes the situation of young workers worse. Featuring coverage on a broad range of topics such as unemployment rate, labor reform, and job insecurity, this book is ideally designed for economists, government officials, policymakers, executives, managers, business professionals, researchers, academicians, and students.

Описание: Creating jobs and increasing productivity are at the top of agenda for policymakers across the world. Knowledge accumulation and skills are recognized as central in this process. More-educated workers not only have better employment opportunities, earn more, and have more stable and rewarding jobs, but also they are more adaptable and mobile. Workers who acquire more skills also make other workers and capital more productive and, within the firm, they facilitate the adaptation, adoption, and ultimately invention of new technologies. This is crucial to enable economic diversification, productivity growth, and ultimately raise the standards of living of the population. This report brings new ideas on how to build and upgrade job relevant skills, focusing on three types of training programs relevant for individuals who are leaving the formal general schooling system or are already in the labor market: pre-employment technical and vocational education and training (TVET); on-the-job training (OJT); and training-related active labor market programs (ALMPs). Several previous studies have discussed some of the flaws in current systems and outlined options for reform. As a consequence, there has been a shift away from the investment in pre-vocational training courses to programs to improve access to and the quality of general secondary education. There have also been calls to encourage a stronger involvement of the private sector in the provision of training, together with increased emphasis in the quality and relevance of the content. One result has been a push to rethink the governance and financing arrangements of training institutions. But overall policies at these three levels of the training systems remain disconnected and there has not been an integrated framework linking them to the market and government failures that need to be addressed. This book makes two important contributions. First, it takes an in-depth look at the types of market and government failures that can result in underinvestment in training or the supply of skills that are not immediately relevant to the labor market. Second, building on the analysis of the limitations of both markets and governments and the results of case studies and recent impact evaluations, the report develops new ideas to improve the design and performance of current training systems.

Описание: Creating innovative products and game-changing processes and adapting to new cultures and communication styles have all become imperative for life and work in today's environment. Today's business and non-profit leaders, from Fortune 500 companies on down, have discovered the value of improvisational theatre techniques to develop creativity and the collaboration skills they need.
Since publication of its seminal first edition, the principles and techniques pioneered in Training to Imagine have been widely adopted by organizations around the world, and have given rise to the field of Applied Improvisation. This new edition builds on the characteristics that made it the most comprehensive and most easy to apply resource for using improv in organizations. As before, this book translates the theories and exercises of improv into language that is familiar to organizational culture, and provides guidelines, case studies and exercises intended for use by individuals for self-development, for small groups, and for facilitation by trainers.
This revised edition places more emphasis on the development of leadership, in particular adding activities designed for individuals to develop skills on their own, or outside formal training environments. It builds upon what has been learned since 2001, presenting examples of practice, and research on the methods, that have proven to be most effective in the workplace. Kat Koppett has added a whole new section on instructional design to help users make informed choices in selecting activities to best support their objectives, as well as numerous new exercises.
This is a vital resource for trainers and leaders at all levels who want to increase their personal communication and creativity skills, and in inspire and motivate their teams.
The enhanced e-book edition incorporates video of sample activities and exercises, as well as interviews with leading Applied Improv practitioners. This material is also available free on the Stylus

Описание: Information technology has had a profound effect on almost every aspect of our lives including the way we purchase products, communicate with others, receive health care services, and deliver education and training. It has also had a major impact on humanresource management (HR) processes, and it has transformed the way that we recruit, select, motivate, and retain employees (Gueutal & Stone, 2005; Kavanagh, Thite, & Johnson, 2015). For example, some estimates indicated that 100 % of large organizations now use web-based recruiting (Sierra-Cedar, 2016-2017), and over half of the training conducted in America is delivered using technology-based methods (American Society for Training and Development, 2015). Results of a survey by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) (2002) revealed that technology is one of the major drivers of change in today’s HR departments.In spite of the increased use of technology in the field of HR, relatively little research has examined the acceptance andeffectiveness of electronic human resource management (eHRM) methods. As a consequence, practitioners are implementing these new systems without the benefit of research. Thus, the primary purpose of this issue is to review the results of research on a number of important eHRM practices including e-recruitment, e-selection, gamification, esocialization, e-learning, and e-performance management. It also considers how the problems associated with cyberdeviance in organizations. The chapters in thisseries should be extremely beneficial for HR researchers and practitioners who are employing these new systems.

Описание: Le titre de ce livre traduit l'intention des auteurs d' tudier la professionnalisation du point de vue double du d veloppement des personnes et de l'organisation sociale de leurs activit s. Il s'agit donc de s'int resser la fois la mani re dont un individu singulier devient professionnel au fil des apprentissages qu'il d veloppe dans son itin raire de vie et professionnel et la mani re dont l'activit qu'il d ploie fait l'objet d'une formalisation, d'une reconnaissance voire d'une codification sociales. La question est donc moins celle des professions que celles des dynamiques sociales associ es aux ph nom nes de professionnalisation des individus et des activit s; celles-ci diff rent sensiblement selon qu'elles sont port es par les organisations l'adresse des individus ou qu'elles sont port es par les individus eux-m mes. L'hypoth se est qu'il existerait de fait une tension entre l'offre ou l'exigence de professionnalisation dans et par les dispositifs propos s par les institutions d'une part et les individus dans leur logique ou leur projet de d veloppement professionnel d'autre part.
