Sommario/riassunto |
|
Expatriation is a big topic and is getting bigger. Over 200 million people worldwide now live and work in a country other than their country of origin. Tens of billions of dollars are spent annually by organizations that move expatriates around the world. Yet, despite the substantial costs involved, expatriation frequently results in an unsatisfactory return on investment (ROI), with little or no knowledge as to how to improve it. Why is this so? The problem overwhelmingly lies in the poor delivery of effective expatriate management which is frequently handicapped by a lack of understanding of international careers and the forces that drive competition in the "global war for talent," an increasingly short-term profit-driven focus and a failure to |

adopt the rational strategic approach that organizations automatically apply to other areas of their business. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This open access book examines how digital technologies are used to promote citizen participation in democratic urban development. It assesses the emergence, use, applicability and functions of digital modes of citizen participation in multiple cities around the world, where political regimes invite ordinary citizens to partake in policy processes through information technologies. The book also explores these initiatives alongside issues of democracy, social justice and power. It is an essential reference for practitioners, policymakers and academics interested in the relationship between citizen participation, technology and urban governance. Sissel Hovik is Professor at Oslo Business School, Oslo Metropolitan University, Norway. G. Anthony Giannoumis is Associate Professor of Universal Design at Oslo Metropolitan University, Norway. Kristin Reichborn-Kjennerud is Senior Researcher at the Work Research Institute, Oslo Metropolitan University, Norway. José Manuel Ruano de la Fuente is Professor in the Department of Political and Administrative Sciences, Complutense University of Madrid, Spain. Ian McShane is Associate Professor at the Centre for Urban Research, RMIT University, Australia.
