Data Sources and Collection Methods -- Notes -- References -- IndexThere's a scene in Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass in which the Red Queen, having just led a chase with Alice in which neither seems to have moved from the spot where they began, explains to the perplexed girl: "It takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place." Evolutionary biologists have used this scene to illustrate the evolutionary arms race among competing species. William Barnett argues that a similar dynamic is at work when organizations compete, shaping how firms and industries evolve over time. Barnett examines the effects--and unforeseen perils--of competing and winning. He takes a fascinating, in-depth look at two of the most competitive industries--computer manufacturing and commercial banking--and derives some startling conclusions. Organizations that survive competition become stronger competitors--but only in the market contexts in which they succeed. Barnett shows how managers may think their experience will help them thrive in new markets and conditions, when in fact the opposite is likely to be the case. He finds that an organization's competitiveness at any given moment hinges on the organization's historical experience. Through Red Queen competition, weaker competitors fail, or they learn and adapt. This in turn heightens the intensity of competition and further strengthens survivors in an ever-evolving dynamic. Written by a leading organizational theorist, The Red Queen among Organizations challenges the prevailing wisdom about competition, revealing it to be a force that can make--and break--even the most successful organization.CompetitionCompetition.338.6/04801Barnett William P1797412MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910963907203321The red queen among organizations4339647UNINA04986nam 22006735 450 991101134780332120250617131658.03-031-87465-X10.1007/978-3-031-87465-9(CKB)39331041800041(MiAaPQ)EBC32157286(Au-PeEL)EBL32157286(OCoLC)1524420949(DE-He213)978-3-031-87465-9(EXLCZ)993933104180004120250617d2025 u| 0engur|||||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierWest-East Reciprocal Learning in a Canada-China Sister School Network Stories of Hope /edited by Yishin Khoo, Michael Connelly, Shijing Xu1st ed. 2025.Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2025.1 online resource (235 pages)Intercultural Reciprocal Learning in Chinese and Western Education,2946-41883-031-87464-1 Chapter 1.

From “Harmony with Difference” to “Harmony for Shared Prosperity”: Rethinking the Significance of the Canada-China Reciprocal Learning in Teacher Education and School Education Partnership Project.This volume provides a comprehensive cross-cultural knowledge base and understanding of school education, teacher education, and the cultural contexts of education in China and the West. It achieves this by bringing together diverse Chinese and Canadian school educators and educational researchers to reframe Sino-Western relationships within the Canada-China Sister School Network, especially during a time of geopolitical tensions and uncertainties. The authors demonstrate that intercultural reciprocal learning between Western and Chinese education is not merely a theoretical concept but a tangible reality embedded in the daily practices and actions of school educators and researchers. It is this practical, experiential, and embodied understanding of West-East reciprocal learning that holds educational hope and promise for the future, forming the essence of this book.
