Identifying and comparing competencies for social work management: a practice driven approach 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The study explicates a competency-based model of contemporary social work management practice and compares this model with frameworks derived from earlier studies. Using a purposive sample of 184 social work managers throughout the country, an exploratory factor analysis yielded twelve sets of competencies required of today's social work manager. A comparison of the present model to earlier management frameworks reveals that substantive changes in the nature, scope, complexity, and priorities assigned to management competencies and skills have transformed the role of the social work manager over the last decade. Implications for social work manager education are reviewed and future research directions are proposed. 相似文献

The productivity of (human) information processing as an economic activity is a question that is raising some interest. Using
Marschak's evaluation framework, Radner and Stiglitz have shown that, under certain conditions, the production function of
this activity has increasing marginal returns in its initial stage. This paper shows that, under slightly different conditions,
this information processing function has repeated convexities with ongoing processing activity. Even for smooth changes in
the signals' likelihoods, the function is only piecewise smooth with non-differentiable convexities at points of conditional
changes of action. For linear likelihood functions the processing value proves to be piecewise linear with convexities at
these levels.

We examine the financial linkage between the London and Amsterdam financial markets using stock prices recorded in each market over the period 1723-94 in conjunction with tests for common trends, cycles, and regime shifts. These tests reveal a surprising degree of integration between the markets as their prices move together in both the short and long run. Moreover, shocks to the assets translate quickly and accurately between markets. It also appears that Dutch investment did not destabilize London markets and stock prices in London were the primary determinant of prices in Amsterdam. 相似文献

Strategic administration of nonprofit human service organizations: a model for executive success in turbulent times 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Menefee D 《Administration in social work》1997,21(2):1-19
Rapid and unprecedented changes in our modern society have created extremely turbulent environments for nonprofit human service organizations. These changes threaten to transform the very nature of our business in ways difficult to predict and prepare for. The author examines the collective views of 21 purposely sampled executive directors in the city of Baltimore, Maryland on the future of the nonprofit human services sector. In 1 hour face-to-face interviews, subjects were asked to respond to three questions. What major trends will impact the nonprofit sector in the near future? What potential impact do you see these trends having on the nonprofit sector? What strategies would you recommend that executive directors take today to ensure success of their organization in the future? Narrative responses to each question were aggregated, organized into dominant views, and summarized. Subjects identified a host of social, political, economic, and technological trends that will have major effects on the future of the nonprofit sector. Subjects recommend a variety of tactics for helping an agency respond successfully to these forces. These tactics emphasize three critical areas of strategic administration: planning, management, and leadership. 相似文献

AbstractTechnological innovations have made changes in library procedures commonplace. Nonetheless, many librarians have been startled by the University of Nevada at Reno's decision to quit checking in print serials. Four serialists address the future of serials acquisitions in light of the technological advances that continue to transform library procedures. Serials Review 2003; 29:224–229. 相似文献
