Описание:
This spirited and engaging multidisciplinary volume pins its focus on the lived experiences and cultural depictions of women's mobility and labor in Japan. The theme of "modern girls" continues to offer a captivating window into the changes that women's roles have undergone during the course of the last century.
Here we encounter Japanese women inhabiting the most modern of spaces, in newly created professions, moving upward and outward, claiming the public life as their own: shop girls, elevator girls, dance hall dancers, tour bus guides, airline stewardesses, international beauty queens, overseas teachers, corporate soccer players, and even female members of the Self-Defense Forces. Directly linking gender, mobility, and labor in 20th and 21st century Japan, this collection brings to life the ways in which these modern girls—historically and contemporaneously—have influenced social roles, patterns of daily life, and Japan's global image. It is an ideal guidebook for students, scholars, and general readers alike.

Описание: Over a long period of time we were receiving demand from different customers and stakeholders requesting our help with analyzing actual levels of IT management practices in their companies and to provide an external, objective look at IT, compare it with other organizations and develop a management summary of our overall findings. While this seems like a straight forward request and is covered by many consulting service providers, we struggled to develop answers to some very simple questions which are crucial to the different management levels from CEO level to IT professionals delivering operational support to the end user. Key questions we were requested to answer: _ How good is our IT? _ How is the quality of our IT evolving? _ How do we compare with other IT departments in similar organizations? _ How do we align the perception of quality between the business and IT? _ Can you compare the quality and costs of our IT? There are many existing assessment approaches based on ISO/IEC, capability models, maturity models, structured surveys as well as there being many different benchmarking approaches that provide detailed analytical outputs. These are typically focused and targeted internally, providing largely internal benefits to a company`s IT organization, looking mostly at the presence of documentation and processes, but none of them providing a comprehensive and straight forward answer to address the simple yet fundamental question asked by management - HOW GOOD IS OUR IT? We believe that a simple question should have a simple answer.

Описание: In the Air Force today, females clearly have many more opportunities available to them than they had decades ago. Yet while there has been tremendous improvement over the years, males still greatly outnumber females in Air Force senior leadership positions, specifically in the ranks of colonel and general. Since there are overwhelmingly more males in the Air Force, one would naturally expect to find fewer women in these senior officer ranks. One might also expect to see at least proportionately the same number of females holding senior officer ranks as the number of females who make up all officer ranks-yet, the statistical data show otherwise. The purpose of this research was to uncover some of the real reasons for so few females in the senior officer ranks, and to determine if their foundations lie in inequities towards females, or whether these reasons were primarily based on females' interests and personal choices. This research effort found that the primary reasons for low numbers of female senior officers are indeed not based in inequities, but on females' own preferences. More specifically, these reasons are that fewer women enter the Air Force in the first place, creating a smaller pool of female officers; not enough females have chosen operational career paths as pilots; and many potentially high-quality female officers choose to separate largely because of family issues.
