Organizational Learning Contracts: New and Traditional

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Goodman, Paul S., PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, <strong>Thestrong> state of higher education today is one of change and stasis. Economic vulnerability, globalization, technological innovation, and an increasingly competitive market underlie <strong>thestrong> need for change in higher education. At <strong>thestrong> same time, <strong>thestrong>re are strong and stubborn forces at work supporting <strong>thestrong> status quo. Though daunting, institutions of higher education can create effective organizational change, but <strong>thestrong>ir foundational philosophies must be re-examined in <strong>thestrong> process. This book addresses a new concept, <strong>thestrong> organizational learning contract, a shared agreement among <strong>thestrong> faculty, staff, and students in an educational institution about what, <strong>howstrong>, where, and when learning should take place. Goodman, who has pioneered <strong>thestrong> concept in his work with new and traditional institutions, examines <strong>thestrong> consequences of strong and weak contracts while bridging <strong>thestrong>ory with practice. In <strong>thestrong> first section, Goodman develops <strong>thestrong> concept of <strong>thestrong> organizational learning contract, builds measures, and looks at <strong>thestrong> consequences of strong versus weak contracts on student and institutional effectiveness indicators. <strong>Thestrong> second section, which includes <strong>thestrong> perspectives of two leaders of start-up institutions who have created new organizational contracts, explores issues of design and change in introducing <strong>thestrong> concept into new and existing institutions. Ultimately, Goodman asks: If you could start from <strong>thestrong> beginning, with appropriate resources, <strong>howstrong> would you design a new institution? <strong>Thestrong> answers have implications for all colleges and universities, as well as <strong>thestrong> future of higher education across <strong>thestrong> globe.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rosendahl, Mona, PUBLISHER: Cornell University Press, <strong>Thestrong> first ethnographic study of life in Cuba to emerge in over twenty years, Inside <strong>thestrong> Revolution offers a rare, close view of <strong>howstrong> socialist ideology translates into everyday experience in one Cuban municipality. Mona Rosendahl draws on eighteen months of fieldwork, in a municipality she calls by <strong>thestrong> fictional name Palmera, to present a vivid account of <strong>thestrong> lives and thoughts of residents, many of whom have lived inside <strong>thestrong> revolution for more than thirty-five years.In Palmera, support for <strong>thestrong> socialist program remains strong. Rosendahl attributes continuing loyalty to four conditions: improvements in <strong>thestrong> standard of living from to , <strong>thestrong> uniformity and omnipresence of political communications from <strong>thestrong> government, a historical emphasis on local participation in <strong>thestrong> revolution, and <strong>thestrong> consistency of revolutionary ideals with traditional machista expectations and practices. Through an analysis of ideology and practice in contemporary Cuba, Rosendahl documents <strong>howstrong> its citizens support <strong>thestrong> present political system, and <strong>howstrong> reciprocal economics between households and ideas about gender both reinforce and challenge that system. Rosendahl also explains <strong>howstrong> those who oppose state socialism resist participation in society through inaction or withdrawal.

Status Signals: A Sociological Study of Market Competition

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Podolny, Joel M., PUBLISHER: Princeton University Press, Why are elite jewelers reluctant to sell turquoise, despite strong demand? Why did leading investment bankers shun junk bonds for years, despite potential profits? "Status Signals" is <strong>thestrong> first major sociological examination of <strong>howstrong> concerns about status affect market competition. Starting from <strong>thestrong> basic premise that status pervades <strong>thestrong> ties producers form in <strong>thestrong> marketplace, Joel Podolny s<strong>howstrong>s <strong>howstrong> anxieties about status influence whom a producer does (or does not) accept as a partner, <strong>thestrong> price a producer can charge, <strong>thestrong> ease with which a producer enters a market, <strong>howstrong> <strong>thestrong> producer's inventions are received, and, ultimately, <strong>thestrong> market segments <strong>thestrong> producer can (and should) enter. To achieve desired status, firms must offer more than strong past performance and product quality--<strong>thestrong>y must also send out and manage social and cultural signals. Through detailed analyses of market competition across a broad array of industries--including investment banking, wine, semiconductors, shipping, and venture capital--Podolny demonstrates <strong>thestrong> pervasive impact of status. Along <strong>thestrong> way, he s<strong>howstrong>s <strong>howstrong> corporate strategists, tempted by <strong>thestrong> profits of a market that would negatively affect <strong>thestrong>ir status, consider not only whe<strong>thestrong>r to enter <strong>thestrong> market but also whe<strong>thestrong>r <strong>thestrong>y can alter <strong>thestrong> public's perception of <strong>thestrong> market. Podolny also examines <strong>thestrong> different ways in which a firm can have status. Wal-Mart, for example, has low status among <strong>thestrong> rich as a place to shop, but high status among <strong>thestrong> rich as a place to invest. "Status Signals" provides a systematic understanding of market dynamics that have--until now--not been fully appreciated.
