Digital Economy: Interdisziplinäre Einblicke und Praxisstrategien für Marketing, Sales und Management
by Ursula Haas-KotzeggerDieses Buch erläutert alle Aspekte der Transformation hin zu einer Digital Economy und analysiert die Auswirkungen auf Marketing, Sales und Management.Der interdisziplinäre Begriff der Digital Economy adressiert zunächst den Megatrend der Digitalisierung, der wiederum als fundamentaler sozioökonomischer Wandel definiert werden kann, welcher durch die Verbreitung digitaler Technologien ausgelöst wird. Speziell aus betriebswirtschaftlicher Sicht bringt die Transformation zur Digital Economy eine Reihe von Herausforderungen mit sich:• Der digitale Einfluss ermöglicht Konsument*innen neue Wege der Kommunikation und somit mehr Einfluss auf Unternehmenserfolg.• Die Interaktion mit Kund*innen auf allen Kanälen und an allen Touchpoints ist für Marken essenziell, um relevant zu bleiben.• Soziale Medien haben Konsument*innen mehr Gehör verschafft. Soziale Medien werden genutzt, um sich permanent auszutauschen, zu informieren und Angebote zuvergleichen –aber auch, um die eigene Meinung zu Unternehmen und Marken öffentlich kundzutun.• Produktinnovationszyklen verändern sich und nehmen neue Formen an.• Vertriebskanalstrukturen sind durch den Erfolg digitaler Plattformen und ihrer zugrundeliegenden Dynamiken im Wandel.• Markt- und Wettbewerbsgrenzen verschwimmen zunehmend.• Bisherige Voraussetzungen für Unternehmenserfolg verlieren zuweilen ihre Gültigkeit.Neben diesen Veränderungen bringt diese neue (Wirtschafts-)Welt der Digital Economy aber vor allem neue Chancen, um Mehrwert für Kund*innen, Unternehmen, Mitarbeiter*innen sowie die Gesellschaft anders, besser und neu zu schaffen. Bei den Beiträgen dieses Werkes handelt es sich sowohl um konzeptionelle als auch um empirisch ausgerichtete Arbeiten, untermauert durch einzelne Case Studys.

Gender, Participation and Agriculture: From Policy to Practice
by Faraha Nawaz Sangida Afrog RupaThis book presents an extensive study of women’s involvement in agricultural activities at the family level in rural Bangladesh, with a particular emphasis on their participation in decision-making. The authors examine the extent to which women are involved in decision-making regarding agricultural practices at family level. In addition to examining women’s contributions to various agricultural tasks, the research expands its scope to include discussions on gender inequality and empowerment, integrating these concepts into the decision-making framework. The authors argue that true participation should not only address the involvement of women in agriculture but also consider their influence on decision-making processes. They stress the importance of factors such as autonomy, control over resources, and self-confidence, which play a crucial role in shaping women’s decision-making ability within the family. Moreover, the research identifies several key barriers to participation, including entrenched patriarchal norms, societal cultural expectations, and institutional challenges, which hinder women’s active involvement in decision-making. The authors advocate for policy reforms and institutional changes to address these challenges, urging government bodies to align policies with their recommendations. The book provides valuable insights for policymakers, government officials, and NGOs working to promote gender-based approach and improve women’s empowerment in rural communities.

The Gap and The Gain: The High Achievers' Guide to Happiness, Confidence, and Success
by Dan Sullivan Dr. Benjamin HardyAs he did in WHO NOT HOW, Dr. Benjamin Hardy shares one of Dan Sullivan&’s simple yet profound teachings that until now has been known only to his Strategic Coach clients: unsuccessful people focus on &“The Gap,&” but successful people focus on &“The Gain.&”"[T]his one simple concept is a masterclass on positive psychology, healthy relationships, mental well-being, and high-performance. Everything that psychologists know about how to create a high-functioning and successful person can be achieved using The GAP and the GAIN."- Dr. Benjamin HardyMost people, especially highly ambitious people, are unhappy because of how they measure their progress. We all have an "ideal," a moving target that is always out of reach. When we measure ourselves against that ideal, we're in "the GAP." However, when we measure ourselves against our previous selves, we're in "the GAIN."That is where the GAP and the GAIN concept comes in. It was developed by legendary entrepreneur coach Dan Sullivan and is based on his work with tens of thousands of successful entrepreneurs. When Dan's coaching clients periodically take stock of all that they've accomplished-both personally and professionally-they are often shocked at how much they have actually achieved. They weren't able to appreciate their progress because no matter how much they were getting done, they were usually measuring themselves against their ideals or goals.In this book you will learn that measuring your current self vs. your former self has enormous psychological benefits. And that's really the key to this deceptively simple yet multi-layered concept that will have you feeling good, feeling grateful, and feeling like you are making progress even when times are tough, which will in turn bolster motivation, confidence, and future success.If you're finding that happiness eludes you no matter how much you've achieved, then learning this easy mindset shift will set you on a life-changing path to greater fulfillment and success.

Police and Citizen Participation: Impulses for More Trust, Cooperation, and Acceptance
by Jan-Philipp KüppersThis book explains why participation processes have gained importance for the police and how they can be successfully designed. In the future, an integrated security structure will increasingly be required, in which stakeholder groups and affected citizens play an important role in police hazard and risk assessment, and thus in shaping their context-related sense of security. The book pursues a guiding and action-oriented approach on how practical participation processes for citizens can be integrated into the planning and projects of the police. Theoretical foundations and practical application fields for the implementation of participation processes are identified: involvement in cooperation discussions for discursive conflict resolution in advance of protest situations, opinion formation through information and discursive exchange of arguments within the framework of municipal security and prevention work, or issue-related "round tables" in the area of independent citizen and police commissioners. In a time of great uncertainty due to social change and complexity, participation processes offer the opportunity to ease strained relationships between the police and civil society and to build a mutual trust relationship. Citizen participation cannot replace sovereign action but can enrich it with everyday and experiential knowledge. In these turbulent times, there is no better recipe for jointly shaping security and addressing problems. The Content Practical assistance and better understanding of participation processes for police work Advantages of citizen participation at a glance Three practical application areas (cooperation discussions in protest situations, independent citizen and police commissioners, and municipal security and prevention work)
