En el dinámico mercado de anteojos y lentes de contacto en México, valorado en más de 35 millones de dólares y con un potencial de 200 millones, esta investigación se centra en analizar los factores que convierten a los optometristas emprendedores en empresarios competentes. Con 4 158 licenciados en Optometría y 12 636 establecimientos de comercio, el estudio destaca la falta de estadísticas sobre pasantes en Optometría. Basándose en la "Teoría de los recursos y capacidades", se enfatiza la importancia de las habilidades directivas y administrativas para el éxito empresarial. El primer capítulo contextualiza el mercado, mientras que el segundo aborda aspectos teóricos. Los capítulos tres y cuatro presentan un caso de estudio con encuestas a optometristas, revelando la necesidad de formación continua en habilidades administrativas. Se propone un plan de formación de dos años para profesionales de la salud, con tres objetivos estratégicos y políticas de actualización.

Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) programs aim to reduce poverty by making welfare programs conditional upon the receivers' actions. That is, the government only transfers the money to persons who meet certain criteria. These criteria may include enrolling children into public schools, getting regular check-ups at the doctor's office, receiving vaccinations, or the like. They have been hailed as a way of reducing inequality and helping households break out of a vicious cycle whereby poverty is transmitted from one generation to another. Do these and other claims make sense? Are they supported by the available empirical evidence? This volume seeks to answer these and other related questions. Sp...
Twenty years of thinking about Judd: authoritative meditations on the epochal minimalist from renowned American art historian Richard Shiff This important new publication collects more than 20 years of sustained thinking about Donald Judd from one of today's most respected art historians and theorists. In Sensuous Thoughts, Richard Shiff draws on Judd's own writing, on the work of the pragmatist philosophers Charles Sander Pierce and William James, and on interviews with many of Judd's contemporaries and close relations, to dramatically enhance the act of looking at Judd's work. Across nearly 300 pages, Shiff closely explicates such topics as Judd's dialogues with artists such as Willem de K...

Cover the costs of dialysis for kidney patients, or channel the money toward preventing the conditions that lead to renal failure in the first place? Policymakers dealing with the realities of limited health care budgets face tough decisions like these regularly. And for many individuals, their personal health care choices are equally stark: paying for medical treatment could push them into poverty. Many low- and middle-income countries now aspire to universal health coverage, where governments ensure that all people have access to the quality health services they need without r...
Managing as Designing explores "the design attitude," a new focus for analysis and decision making for managers that draws on examples of decision making and leadership in architecture, art, and design. Based on a series of conference papers given at the opening of the Peter B. Lewis Building (designed by Frank Gehry) at the Weatherhead School of Management, Case Western Reserve University, the book includes keynote speeches from Frank Gehry and Karl Weick. The premise of this book is that managers should act not only as decision makers, but also as designers. Though decision and design are inextricably linked in management action, managers and scholars have too long emphasized the decision ...
Guy de Cointet was fascinated with language, which he explored primarily through performance and drawing. His practice involved collecting random phrases, words, and even single letters from popular culture and literary sources - he often cited Raymond Roussel's novel Impressions of Africa as influential - and working these elements into non-linear narratives, which were presented as plays to his audience.Paintings and works on paper would then figure prominently within these performances. In his play At Sunrise . . . A Cry Was Heard (1976), a large painting depicting letters bisected by a white sash served as a main subject and prop, with the lead actress continuously referring to it and re...
