Les sociétés occidentales contemporaines sont marquées du sceau du « jeunisme » et de l¿obsolescence rapide des innovations. Mais, à trop se focaliser sur la nouveauté, ne se prive-t-on pas de tirer des enseignements du passé ? Le passé n¿a-t-il, pour le dire autrement, aucune valeur pour penser notre présent et, plus encore, notre futur ? Quelles sont les ramifications qui permettent des innovations plus responsables en lien avec des besoins réels ? Ainsi est posée la question de la contribution de l¿histoire des techniques au développement de connaissances sur le processus d¿innovation. Quels sont les concepts clés et les principaux apports de l¿histoire des techniques à l¿innovation ? Comment l¿histoire des techniques peut-elle nous aider à imaginer le futur ?L¿enjeu de ce livre n¿est pas de retourner vers un passé. Il s¿agit d¿apprécier la portée heuristique de l¿histoire des techniques et des biographies d¿innovations pour imaginer des concepts innovants à même d'apporter des réponses inédites aux grands défis du monde contemporain. Les auteurs traitent des exemples issus de secteurs industriels variés. Invité à découvrir les innovations techniques de l'entreprise de Marc Seguin, le lecteur découvrira ainsi l'histoire du four micro-onde en France, en passant par celle du Shock Absorber de SEB ou plus près de nous du vaccin anti-covid de Sanofi.Ce livre s'adresse aux chercheurs de toutes disciplines, intéressés par la valorization de leurs travaux, aux ingénieurs de R&D qui lancent des projets innovants. Il se destine aussi à un public plus large intéressé par la naissance et la diffusion des innovations.

This book describes the groundbreaking work of Chaim Leib Pekeris and his collaborators. Between 1955 and 1963 they used the first electronic computer built in Israel, the Weizmann Automatic Computer (WEIZAC), to develop powerful numerical methods that helped achieve new and accurate solutions of the Boltzmann equation, calculate energy levels of the helium atom, produce detailed geophysical and seismological models derived from the study of the free oscillations of the earth, and refine models used to predict meteorological phenomena and global oceanic tides. This book provides a unique account of the pioneering work of Chaim L. Pekeris in applied mathematics and explains in detail the background to the rise of the Weizmann Institute as a world-class center of scientific excellence. This hitherto untold story is of great interest to historians of twentieth-century science with special emphasis on the application of computer-assisted numerical methods in various branches of mathematical physics.

Die Bedeutung politischer Risiken in Industrieländern nimmt zu. In jüngerer Vergangenheit dominieren geopolitische Risiken, die fundamentale Ausmaße annehmen und den Bestand des Unternehmens, ganzer Branchen oder sogar Volkswirtschaften gefährden können. Ebenso treiben zunehmende Regelungsdichte und Staatsverschuldungen die politischen Risiken. Das Buch stellt einen praxiserprobten Ansatz zur Identifizierung und zum proaktiven Management politischer Risiken in Unternehmen vor. Neben Risikovermeidung und Risikoreduktion kann dieser Ansatz Unternehmen helfen, Wettbewerbsvorteile im Umgang mit diesen Risiken auszubauen. Ein besonderer Fokus des Buchs liegt auf politische Risiken in Industrieländern. Wie die vorgestellten Werkzeuge im eigenen Unternehmen zum Einsatz kommen können, zeigen anschaulich drei fiktive Unternehmen, ein Chemiekonzern, ein Stromerzeuger und ein Rohstoffhändler, die den Leser durch das gesamte Buch begleiten.

Open Strategy beschreibt die Öffnung strategischer Prozesse in Unternehmen, wodurch Mitarbeiter und externe Akteure durch Inklusion in die Strategiefindung und durch die Transparenz strategischer Prozesse und Entscheidungen in die Strategiefindung einbezogen und informiert werden. Im Zuge des Einbeziehens haben diese Mitarbeiter und externen Akteure die Möglichkeit strategische Prozesse, unabhängig ihrer formellen Entscheidungsbefugnis, zu beeinflussen. Sofern dieser Einfluss in der Strategieformulierung und in der Strategieumsetzung identifizierbar ist, lässt sich Strategy Ownership bei Akteuren identifizieren. Strategy Ownership bietet hierbei die Möglichkeit Auswirkungen auf Mitarbeiter und externe Akteure im Rahmen der Strategiefindung und Umsetzung zu erklären und kausal zu begründen. Die vorliegende Untersuchung befasst sich mit der Fragestellung, wie strategische Entscheidungen in Open Strategy beeinflusst werden, wie Strategy Ownership in Open Strategy als theoretisch-konzeptioneller Bezugsrahmen im Open-Strategy-Kontext dargelegt werden kann und welche Implikationen sich durch das Konzept von Strategy Ownership ergeben.

This work describes the use of a continuous classification scale to determine the degree of influence of interest groups in organizations, based on characteristics proposed by relevant authors such as Freeman (1984), as well as the work of prominent researchers, such as Mitchel, Agle and Wood (1997), in addition to the classification proposals proposed by Donaldson and Preston (1995).A continuous classification scale owes its relevance to proposing a method for measuring the characteristics of a phenomenon or object of study without any imposition in terms of scales or predetermined numbers to generate some type of qualification or evaluation.In this sense, a continuous classification will make it easier for the person surveyed to express their opinion without the need to adapt their point of view or perception to a certain response trait, but will have as its main characteristic the freedom to express their position considering the issues that are present in a given data collection instrument.
