    Book SynopsisCoaching ist zurzeit eine der gefragtesten Beratungsleistungen in Organisationen fÃ"r die Lösung beruflicher Problemstellungen. Was jedoch zunehmend viele Coaches und Berater bewegt, sind Fragen nach dem grundlegenden Sinn ihrer Arbeit, nach der Passung des Berufs mit Ã"bergeordneten Lebenszielen und letztlich nach der eigenen Berufung in einem gröÃeren Zusammenhang. Gerade Menschen in den FÃ"hrungspositionen der Unternehmen haben zunehmend den Wunsch, mit ihrer Tätigkeit einen sinnstiftenden Beitrag zu leisten, gleichzeitig werden die Anforderungen im komplexen Organisationsalltag immer anspruchsvoller. Dort, wo die Sinndimension zu kurz kommt, werden Symptome wie Entfremdung und Burnout wahrscheinlicher, worunter schlieÃlich auch die reale Leistung der Menschen und Organisationen leidet.Die Auseinandersetzung mit dieser existenziellen Suche nach Sinn, persönlicher Weiterentwicklung und einem gröÃeren Eingebundensein ist seit jeher das Anliegen spiritueller Traditionen. Eine zeitgemäÃe Auseinandersetzung mit Spiritualität bietet daher fÃ"r die Profession des Coaching und der Beratung zukÃ"nftig eine wesentliche Ressource. Dazu stellt der Band konzeptuelle, methodische und theoretische Ansätze vor, die die Rolle spiritueller Haltung und Praxis im Setting von Einzel-Coaching, Beratung und Ausbildung beleuchten und Kompetenzen wie Achtsamkeit, Intuition und Inspiration im Kontext einer postmodernen Lebens- und Arbeitswelt fördern helfen.

    Book SynopsisDeutschland ist fër Peru der wichtigste Handelspartner fër die Einfuhr hochwertiger technischer Produkte sowie Abnehmer peruanischer Rohstoffe sowie landwirtschaftlicher Erzeugnisse. Seit Jahrzehnten ist Peru zudem ein Empfängerland im Rahmen der Entwicklungszusammenarbeit.Peru ist kulturell, politisch und gesellschaftlich einerseits stark von der kolonialen Vergangenheit - beginnend mit der Landung des spanischen Eroberers Francisco Pizarro im Jahre 1532 an den Kësten Perus -, geprägt, andererseits von den wechselhaften politischen Entwicklungen in Sëdamerika und den Beziehungen Perus zu seinen großen Nachbarländern Argentinien und Brasilien. Die Peruaner haben im Laufe ihrer Geschichte eine sehr eigenständige Kultur entwickelt, die ihr Denken und Verhalten sowie ihre Wahrnehmung und Empfindungen in einer Art und Weise geprägt hat, die sich deutlich von der ihrer deutschen Partner unterscheidet. So geraten Deutsche in der Begegnung, in der Kommunikation und Kooperation mit Peruanern immer wieder in Situationen, in denen sie auf unerwartete Reaktionsweisen treffen, die sie nicht nachvollziehen können und auch nicht verstehen. Dies fëhrt zur Verunsicherung, zum Orientierungsverlust und im Endeffekt zu erheblichen Stressreaktionen.Dieses Buch basiert auf einer Fëlle von Erfahrungen, die Deutsche in mehrjähriger Zusammenarbeit mit Peruanern gewonnen haben. Das Trainingsprogramm bereitet anhand kulturell bedingter kritischer Interaktionssituationen auf den Arbeitsaufenthalt in Peru vor.

Dabei werden Raumkonzepte unterschiedlicher Disziplinen zusammengeführt. Die herausgearbeiteten Funktionen von Raum als „materieller Raum“, „sozialer Erfahrungsraum“, „Kooperationsraum“ sowie als „virtueller“ Raum ermöglichen neue interdisziplinäre Sichtweisen auf Lernen und Lehren in der Weiterbildung. Jede dieser Funktionen wird aus wissenschaftlicher Perspektive analysiert bzw. reflektiert und mit Praxisbeispielen aus unterschiedlichen Handlungsfeldern der Weiterbildung konkretisiert. Die Beiträge wollen Anregungen geben, zur Weitung der Sichtweise von „Raum“ in Wissenschaft und Praxis sowie zur innovativen Gestaltung von pädagogischen Raumszenarien in der Weiterbildung.Table of ContentsRaum als materieller Raum.- Raum als sozialer (Erfahrungs-)Raum.- Raum als Kooperationsraum.- Raum als virtueller Raum.

    7 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis methodologically sound psychometric tool has been handed to Ecuadorian psychologists and teachers as a guide in the career counselling field. The tool will have a significant impact on the democratization of youth, assisting them to make well-targeted choices when planning their education and career. The authors’ study may be viewed as pioneering work, due to its consideration of the significant cultural and geographic regional differentiation among graduates from the Pacific coast, the Andes, the Amazon rainforest and the Galapagos Islands. Reaching to the classics of literature on the subject, the authors have performed a momentous work, which is the construction of a psychometric tool that will be helpful in diagnosing career interests in the entire population of Ecuadorian youth. Worth additional acknowledgement are the high reliability indicators of the career interests questionnaire conducted on a representative and large study group, as well as the defined psychometric accuracy of the scale. This publication makes a civilizational quantum leap in the education of Ecuadorian youth, guaranteeing them a career choice that corresponds to their interests and ambitions. This pioneering publication on the Polish and world markets confirms the fact that Polish psychologists have the capability to “export” the psychometric school of thought to the Latin American region, with all of the scientific, social and humanitarian consequences involved.Trade ReviewThe proposals formulated by the authors both regarding the results of empirical research on the occupational preferences of Ecuadorian youth and the stages of the research tool construction and standards, especially its psychometric values (reliability, validity) are not only based on reasonable theoretical and methodological premises, but can also be the basis of the counseling practice of youth in all provinces of Ecuador. -- Adam Biela, Catholic University of Lublin

  • Preparing and accessing decent work amongst rural

    Food & Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Preparing and accessing decent work amongst rural

    1 in stock

    Book SynopsisThis study aims to assess the skills and training needs of rural youth in Cambodia and to develop recommendations on how to foster their access to decent employment. The needs assessment was conducted in the provinces of Kampong Chhnang, Battambang and Kampong Cham. The study highlights the limited decent employment opportunities that currently exist along various agricultural value chains in rural Cambodia. Poverty and the structural problems of the agricultural sector are the main barriers for youth in accessing decent rural employment. A substantial enhancement of the education system, combined with the provision of appropriate training services to ensure successful school-to-work transition, is seen as necessary to tackle these challenges. A well-balanced policy mix reflecting national and local circumstances can boost employment opportunities and create an environment that enables rural youth. Building on previous research on agriculture in Cambodia, this study argues that agricultural transformation requires promotion of agribusiness enterprises, support to community-managed farmer organizations and promotion of agropreneurs, as well as investment in agricultural and rural development, particularly in infrastructure, energy, water, education and health. Moreover, as most young people entering agriculture are self-employed and work as small-scale farmers, training in rural areas should focus on the skills required to be self-employed.
