Auch die Integration von strategischen Fragen in das Unternehmenskonzept wird immer wichtiger. Controlling wird damit zunehmend zu einem in Praxis und Wissenschaft bedeutsamen Teilgebiet der Betriebswirtschaftslehre.Das Buch gibt in bereits 4. Auflage einen kompletten Überblick über den Stand, die Teilgebiete und Anwendungsbereiche des Controllings. Sowohl die fachlichen Grundlagen als auch die für die Umsetzung wichtigen strategischen und operativen Instrumente werden ausführlich vorgestellt.Schwerpunkte sind neben einer Einführung in das Controlling die Kosten- und Leistungsrechnung, strategisches Kostenmanagement, Berichtswesen und Reporting, strategisches und operatives Controlling in speziellen Bereichen, funktionsbezogenes Controlling und Projektcontrolling.Eine Besonderheit dieses Werkes ist die personalwirtschaftliche und organisatorische Berücksichtigung des Controllings und der Mitarbeiter. Auch die Anforderungen an einen Controller werden behandelt. Durch den modularen Aufbau ist ein selektives Lesen möglich.Gleichzeitig wurde mit der 4. Auflage auch das dazugehörige Arbeitsbuch aktualisiert. 606 $aCost accounting 606 $aCost control 615 0$aCost accounting. 615 0$aCost control. 676 $a657.42 686 $aQP 361$2rvk 700 $aJung$b Hans$c(Business economics researcher),$01083485 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910817705703321 996 $aControlling$94004007 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03852nam 22006375 450 001 9910590081103321 005 20230810175415.0 010 $a9783031067495$b(electronic bk.) 010 $z9783031067488 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-06749-5 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC7077201 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL7077201 035 $a(CKB)24739001000041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-06749-5 035 $a(EXLCZ)9924739001000041 100 $a20220823d2022 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aDiscovery, Innovation, and the Victorian Admiralty $ePaper Navigators /$fby Erika Behrisch 205 $a1st ed. 2022. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2022. 215 $a1 online resource (229 pages) 225 1 $aGlobal Studies in Social and Cultural Maritime History 311 08$aPrint version: Behrisch, Erika Discovery, Innovation, and the Victorian Admiralty Cham : Springer International Publishing AG,c2022 9783031067488 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aChapter 1: Introduction: Triangulating the New: Discovery, Innovation, Bureaucracy -- Chapter 2: "A monotonous and arduous service": Science, Surveying, and Servitude Aboard -- Chapter 3: "Considerable Magnetic Disturbance": The Niger Expedition, Science, and Networks of Influence -- Chapter 4: En Route with the British Admiralty's Manual of Scientific Enquiry (1849) -- Chapter 5: Private Inventions, Public Purse: Innovation and the Admiralty -- Chapter 6: Conclusion: Notes in the Margin. 330 $aThis book examines the British Admiralty's engagement with science and technological innovation in the nineteenth century. It is a book about people, and gross misunderstanding, about the dreams and disappointments of scientific workers and inventors in relation to the administrators who adjudicated their requests for support, and about the power of paper to escalate arguments, reduce opinions, and frustrate hopes. From instructions for naval surveying to debates about rewards to civilians for inventions, Paper Navigators puts a wide range of primary sources in the context of public debates and explores the British Admiralty's engagement with, decision-making around, and management of questions of value, support, and funding with citizen inventors, the broader public, and their own employees. Concentrating on the Admiralty's private, internal correspondence to explore these themes, it offers a fresh perspective on the Victorian Navy's history of innovation and exploration and is a novel addition to literature on the history of science in the nineteenth century.

wetlands that highlights their importance for local livelihoods as well as for global biodiversity Covering 17 different regions, Wetlands of Tropical and Subtropical Asia and Africa provides detailed information on some of the world's most important wetlands and wetland types across those countries, as well as their current and potential biological resources. Each wetland is analyzed by a regional expert. Written with UN sustainable development goals in mind, Wetlands of Tropical and Subtropical Asia and Africa includes information on: Recommendations for the sustainable management of wetlands in the Asian and African tropics The importance of sustaining local economic livelihoods in each wetland region by providing food resources as well as recreational opportunities Wetland ecosystem services including carbon sequestration, water filtration, nutrient retention, and flood mitigation Threats to the integrity of each wetland region as well as management strategies and practical conservation and restoration measures Wetlands of Tropical and Subtropical Asia and Africa is an essential reference on the subject for ecologists, conservation scientists, hydrologists, and environmental and water resource managers. Governmental agencies and professionals in fisheries, agriculture, and rural development will also find value in the book. 676 $a333.918 700 $aPullaiah$b T$01218853 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911019908103321 996 $aWetlands of Tropical and Subtropical Asia and Africa$94422723 997 $aUNINA
