Das Buch verknüpft das Betriebliche Gesundheitsmanagement mit der Digitalisierung von Gesundheitsthemen, was generell neue technische Möglichkeiten bietet. Die Gesundheit der Mitarbeiter ist insbesondere im bevorstehenden war-for-talents eine wichtige strategische Schlüsselressource geworden, die es zu fördern und zu schützen gilt. Beim Betrieblichen Gesundheitsmanagements(BGM) geht es um ein integriertes System zur Gesundheitsförderung, Gesundheitsschutz und Eingliederungsmanagement und die Koordination aller Maßnahmen. Heute ist auch die Digitalisierung im BGM angekommen, die verschiedene technische Möglichkeiten und Maßnahmen mit sich bringt. So gibt es bei der Gesundheitsförderung bspw. Gamification-Elemente in einem modernen Betrieb, bei denen die Mitarbeiter eher spielerisch miteinander oder gegeneinander im virtuellen Raum antreten und ganz nebenbei etwas für die Gesundheit tun. Alle aktuellen Entwicklungen werden in diesem Buch vorgestellt und diskutiert.
Ziel des Handbuches ist es, den wissenschaftlichen Forschungsstand zum Thema ‚Globale Kompetenz‘ praxisorientiert darzustellen. Globale Kompetenz beschreibt die Fähigkeit einer Person, weltweit effektiv und positiv mit seinen Mitmenschen umgehen sowie Krisen und Herausforderungen bewältigen zu können. Global kompetente Personen sind offen gegenüber kulturellen Normen und akzeptieren hierdurch geprägte Erwartungen, zum Beispiel hinsichtlich der Sprache, Gestik, Verhaltens- und Umgangsformen, Höflichkeit und Werten. Die Themen orientieren sich an den drei Säulen der Globalen Kompetenz: Nachhaltigkeit, interkulturelle Kompetenz und soziale Verantwortung in einer multi- und interdisziplinären Perspektive aus Psychologie, Soziologie, Politikwissenschaft und den Wirtschaftswissenschaften.
