Employability and Industrial Mutations
Industrial, economic and organizational mutations are creating a transformation in employment, skills and work. Developing the employability of the workforce is one response to these challenges. However, the link between mutations and employability is not obvious: it must be constructed and implemented in order to ensure that employees are able to reach satisfying professional situations. Employability and Industrial Mutations presents a definition of employability and the associated challenges for public authorities, organizations and employees: managing unemployment, successful change and employee empowerment. It then examines several worker profiles to better understand what "being employable" means. It goes on to analyze several examples of management systems for employability at different stages of an individual’s career, and finally explores the issue of developing or maintaining employability in real-life situations and contexts. This book brings together researchers and practitioners from a range of different fields in order to shed light on the complex relationship between mutations and employability.
Skills Management
Managing skills is at the core of Human Resources Management. Based on previous literature and realized with researchers from Magellan, the Research Center in Management of iaeLyon, Skills Management examines how skills can be analyzed at the individual and collective levels, and investigates the focus on different types of skills – including technical, soft, learning, leadership and emotional skills. The book examines how skills management is applied in various contexts and for various populations, cultures and profiles, with examples ranging from middle managers having to develop organizational skills in a changing environment, to engineers having to develop soft skills beyond their technical skills; from police officers developing emotional skills, to the new skills that are needed when a hospital introduces a new approach to shared leadership. In the concluding chapter, this book also investigates how it is sometimes difficult to focus on skills development when organization needs are focused on flexibility.
Discovering Lavalette
How did a small village get such an unusual name? The answer would reveal the secret to one of the best kept secrets in Appalachian history. The answer had been woven into the fabric of day to day life hiding the invisible threads of humanity and history long passed away. Or had they? Those threads, once illuminated, led back to a transplanted ancient culture left curiously intact, a whirlwind 19th century Caribbean romance and a gifted thinker that reflect the true spirit of a culture known for their independent mind. Discovering Lavalette-Commemorative Village Edition is the multi-dimensional cultural biography of a small southern Appalachian village and its humble people. Introductions include photographs and oral histories from the earliest settlers, their adventures with Colonial America, the American Civil War, the coming of the Industrial Age.
