Cultural Values in Strategy and Organization
The field of strategy science has grown in both the diversity of issues it addresses and the increasingly interdisciplinary approaches it adopts in understanding the nature and significance of problems that are continuously emerging in the world of human endeavor.These newer kinds of challenges and opportunities arise in all forms of organizations, encompassing private and public enterprises, and with strategies that experiment with breaking the traditional molds and contours.The field of strategy science is also, perhaps inevitably, being impacted by the proliferation of hybrid organizations such as strategic alliances, the upsurge of approaches that go beyond the customary emphasis on competitiveness and profit making, and the intermixing of time-honored categories of activities such as business, industry, commerce, trade, government, the professions, and so on.The blurring of the boundaries between various areas and types of human activities points to a need for academic research to address the consequential developments in strategic issues.Hence, research and thinking about the nature of issues to be tackled by strategy science should also cultivate requisite variety in issues recognized for research inquiry, including the conceptual foundations of strategy and strategy making, and the examination of the critical roles of strategy makers, strategic thinking, time and temporalities, business and other goal choices, diversity in organizing modes for strategy implementation, and the complexities of managing strategy, to name a few.This book series on Research in Strategy Science aims to provide an outlet for ideas and issues that publications in the field do not provide, either expressly or adequately, especially as regards the comprehensive coverage deserved by certain emerging areas of interest.The topics of the volumes in the series will keep in view this objective to expand the research areas and theoretical approaches routinely found in strategy science, the better to permit expanded and expansive treatments of promising issues that may not sufficiently align with the usual research coverage of publications in the field.Cultural Values in Strategy and Organization contains contributions by leading scholars on the role of cultural values in the field of strategy science research.The 11 chapters in this volume cover the topics of ecological organizing and evolving cultural values, corporate cultural responsibility, cultural integration in mergers and acquisitions, culture and paradoxical frames, cultural values in the fair trade market, national culture and legitimacy, family businesses as values-driven organizations, cultural intelligence of executives, building an alliance culture, personal values of civil engineers and architects, and cultural characteristics of Chilean and Brazilian workforces.The chapters collectively present a wide-ranging review of the noteworthy research perspectives on the role of cultural values in strategy and organization.

Portfolio Management : Delivering on Strategy
Portfolio management is becoming the ‘must have’ for organizations to prosper and survive in this decade and beyond.No longer can the organizational focus be one of following best and repeatable practices as resource limitations mean only those programs, projects, and operational work that add business value can and should be pursued.Executives are focusing on strategic ability and managing complexity, which can only be done through a disciplined portfolio process in ensuring the best mix of programs, projects, and operational work is under way.In turn, the portfolio is constantly in flux as difficult decisions are made if a project, for example, is no longer contributing to business value and providing benefits and should be terminated to reallocate resources to one of higher priority.Commitment to this difficult approach is necessary at all levels, and communication is required so everyone knows how their work contributes to the organization’s strategic goals and objectives. Portfolio Management: Delivering on Strategy, Second Edition focuses on the benefits of portfolio management to the organization.Its goal is to provide senior executives a view on how portfolio management can deliver organizational strategy.The emphasis is on the specific aspects within the portfolio management discipline and how each aspect should be managed from a business perspective and not necessarily from a portfolio management perspective.Highlights of the book include:Agile portfolio management Delivering organizational value Portfolio management and uncertainty Portfolio governance Marketing a portfolio Portfolio management success Starting with a review of the project portfolio concept and its development, this book is a reference for executives and practitioners in the field, as well as a students and researchers studying portfolio management.

Are wealth, satisfaction, freedom, and hygiene more instrumental or inherent values?
Wealth, satisfaction, freedom, and hygiene can be seen as a mix of both instrumental and inherent values. While wealth and hygiene may be more instrumental, as they are means to achieving certain goals or states of being, satisfaction and freedom can be considered more inherent values as they are often seen as desirable states in and of themselves. However, the perception of these values can vary from person to person, with some viewing them more instrumentally and others more inherently.

What are note values and rest values?
Note values represent the duration of a musical sound, indicating how long a note should be held or played. Rest values, on the other hand, indicate periods of silence in music, representing when no sound should be played. Both note values and rest values are essential in creating rhythmic patterns and structures in music, helping musicians to accurately interpret and perform a piece.

Democracy's Values
Democracy has been a flawed hegemony since the fall of communism.Its flexibility, its commitment to equality of representation, and its recognition of the legitimacy of opposition politics are all positive features for political institutions.But democracy has many deficiencies: it is all too easily held hostage by powerful interests; it often fails to advance social justice; and it does not cope well with a number of features of the political landscape, such as political identities, boundary disputes, and environmental crises.Although democracy is valuable it fits uneasily with other political values and is in many respects less than equal to the demands it confronts.In this volume (and its companion Democracy's Edges) prominent political theorists and social scientists present original discussions of such central issues.Democracy's Values deals with the nature and value of democracy, particularly the tensions between it and such goods as justice, equality, efficiency, and freedom.

What are the magnitude values of x-values?
The magnitude values of x-values represent the distance of a point on the x-axis from the origin (0,0). It is the absolute value of the x-coordinate of a point on a graph. For example, if a point has an x-value of -5, the magnitude value would be 5. This helps in determining the position of a point relative to the origin on a coordinate plane.

How are x-values mapped to y-values?
In mathematics, x-values are mapped to y-values through a function. A function is a rule that assigns each input value (x-value) to a unique output value (y-value). This mapping is often represented as y = f(x), where f is the function and x is the input value. When an x-value is input into the function, the corresponding y-value is the output. This mapping allows us to understand the relationship between the x-values and the y-values and how they change relative to each other.

How can empirical values be compared with literature values?
Empirical values can be compared with literature values by conducting experiments or observations to obtain the empirical values and then comparing them with values found in existing literature or research studies. This comparison can help to validate the accuracy of the empirical values and determine if they align with what is already known in the scientific community. Discrepancies between empirical and literature values can also provide insights into potential errors in the experimental methods or new discoveries that may challenge existing knowledge.

Determine the missing current values and resistance values 2.
To determine the missing current values and resistance values in a circuit, you can use Ohm's Law (V = IR) and Kirchhoff's Laws. By applying Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (the sum of the voltage drops in a closed loop is zero) and Kirchhoff's Current Law (the sum of currents entering a junction is equal to the sum of currents leaving the junction), you can solve for the missing values. Additionally, you can use the relationships between voltage, current, and resistance to calculate the missing values in the circuit.
