This central and highly visible square has undergone a series of strategic revisions to restore its vitality and so meet place-enhancing objectives. Specifically, the book critically addresses the challenging task of restoring Potsdamer Platz from a state of disintegration to a condition worthy of a world-class city, although the questions remain unanswered as to how far the objectives have been achieved. The book enables readers to become familiar with the various stages of transformation, aided by the authors’ hand-drawn illustration – a series of sketches accompanied by narrations focusing on how to critically read ‘cities in transformation’. In sum, it presents an overview of the strategic process of urban regeneration. The findings from this theoretical exploration help reposition our understanding of the process of re-making a degraded city and the parallel fresh regeneration ideologies and methods.SpringerBriefs in Geography,2211-4173Human geographySociology, UrbanArchitectureHistoryHuman GeographyUrban SociologyArchitectural History and TheoryHuman geography.Sociology, Urban.ArchitectureHistory.Human Geography.Urban Sociology.Architectural History and Theory.356711.550943155Nowobilska Malgorzataauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1061750Zaman Quazi Mahtabauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910298360803321Potsdamer Platz2519977UNINA03673nam 22005655 450 991072592730332120251008155112.09783031289712303128971410.1007/978-3-031-28971-2(CKB)5590000001065446(MiAaPQ)EBC30555931(Au-PeEL)EBL30555931(DE-He213)978-3-031-28971-2(PPN)27061964X(OCoLC)1385496290(ODN)ODN0010067619(EXLCZ)99559000000106544620230530d2023 u| 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierCommunication Climate at Work Fostering Friendly Friction in Organisations /by Øyvind Kvalnes1st ed. 2023.Cham :Springer International Publishing :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2023.1 online resource (137 pages)9783031289705 3031289706 Part One -- 1.Communication Climate -- 2.Critical Quality Moments -- 3.Bystander Effects -- 4.The Invisible Gorilla -- 5.

Further Studies. This book explores how members of an organization or group speak to and with each other. An expansion of the author’s previous research on fallibility in organizations, the concept of communication climate is related to those of voice climate and psychological safety, both of which focus on the risk of speaking up and raising concerns at work. In this book the author addresses the scope for criticism, dissent and disagreement, but also for praise and encouragement. Beginning with a clear explanation of how and why communication climate is important in organizations, the author introduces the concept of critical quality moments, i.e. situations where a verbal intervention can crucially change the course of events for the better. The book then goes on to describe seven elements that characterize well-functioning communication climates before exploring the concept of communication ethics, and the balance between freedom of speech on the one hand, and speech responsibilityon the other. It concludes with suggestions for further studies of communication climate at work. This is an open access book.
