NASA/DOD Aerospace Knowledge Diffusion Research Project. Report 6: The Relationship Between the Use of US Government Technical Reports by US Aerospace Engineers and Scientists and Selected Institutional and Sociometric Variables
A study was undertaken that investigated the relationship between the use of U.S. government technical reports by U.S. aerospace engineers and scientists and selected institutional and sociometric variables. Survey research is the methodology used for the study. Data were collected by means of a self- administered mail questionnaire. The approximately 34 000 members of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) served as the study population. The response rate for the survey was 70 percent. A dependent relationship was found to exist between the use of U.S. government technical reports and three of the institutional variables (academic preparation, years of professional aerospace work experience, and technical discipline). The use of U.S. government technical reports was found to be independent of all of the sociometric variables. The institutional variables best explain the use of U.S. government technical reports by U.S. aerospace engineers and scientists.
Red Zone Management
Annotation In football, the red zone is the last 20 yards on the way to a touchdown. In business, red zones are those critical times when companies face opportunities for great gain or loss. Holland, chairman and CEO of a consulting firm, explains how to navigate business red zones such as mergers, acquisitions, and implementation of new technologies. He describes different kinds of business conditions that put a company in a red zone and describes underlying principles that can be applied to any red zone condition. He presents specific game plans for major red zones including changing competitive strategy, reengineering work processes, and changing culture. Annotation c.

Such is the overarching argument of this volume, a collection of papers by many of the world's leading social scientists and organizational scholars.
