Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In recent decades industrial relations in the public sector have come increasingly to the forefront and government policies have brought about significant changes in the attitudes and behaviour of public sector unions. In the 1970s, it was the governments who attempted to limit the public sector wage increases; in the 1980s the Thatcher government reduced public employment levels and sought to curb the power of public sector unions through such measures as privatization, compulsory competitive tendering and the introduction of private sector arrangements and practices. Such actions have changed the face of industrial relations. This book concentrates specifically on industrial relations in the public sector, identifying distinctive features of management organization, collective bargaining, strikes and dispute resolution. It offers not only an outline of the major developments in the public sector in Britain, but a careful analysis of their effects and implications, comparing them in detail to systems in other countries. This breadth makes the book useful for all students of industrial relations and human resource management as well as policy makers and economists. This book should be of interest to lecturers and students of industrial relations, human resource management, economics and politics. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

From the Foreword by Richard Olver, Managing Director, BP To answer the how, what, when and why questions of effective leadership, the authors of this groundbreaking book looked to the world of competitive sport. The BT Global Challenge 2000/1 Round the World Yacht Race provided a unique case study and an excellent parallel with today s business environment. The race was highly competitive, the environment hostile, at times dangerous, and conditions were uncertain. Faced with these pressures, and racing identical yachts, the winners were the skippers who led their teams most effectively to achieve and sustain high performance. The authors of this groundbreaking book were given unrivalled behind the scenes access to The BT Global Challenge 2000/1 Round the World Yacht Race and conducted over 500 interviews with the crew and skippers from each of the 12 teams before, throughout and after the race. The authors identify the key attributes and skills which make effective leaders stand out from the crowd and demonstrate how emotional intelligence can be developed to impact on performance. Combining these new findings with existing theories of management and leadership, emotional intelligence, motivation and team dynamics this book provides managers and MBA students with an in-depth understanding of what makes a high performing leader and demonstrates how to sustain competitive advantage in business. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This text is an analysis of the political and security implications for South-Eastern Europe -and for the whole of Europe - of the collapse of communism. For more than four decades, the Cold War had ensured not only a flow of aid into the region but also a certain kind of stability, with Greece and Turkey belonging to NATO, Bulgaria and Romania to the Warsaw Pact and Yugoslavia and Albania retaining their independence. With the Warsaw Pact dissolved and the Soviet Union no more, the Cold War discipline which had kept the region in a firm grip had collapsed. The old disputes between states, and between nations and minorities within them, have assumed a key role. One of those conflicts has already resulted in the disintegration of Yugoslavia against the background of a brutal war that still continues, defying the efforts of all the major international players to end it. There is a danger of further conflict - notably over Macedonia and the Serb-controlled Albanian-majority province of Kosovo - that could lead to a wider war in the region. This study offers ideas on how the map of the Balkans might be recast to deal with its problems, notably those involving security, and how various international mechanisms could be used to contain crises in the shorter term. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
