Este libro es el resultado de diversas experiencias como ejecutivo, empresario, profesor universitario y principalmente como consultor de empresas que permiten contribuir a temas, interrogantes e inquietudes que son pertinentes en el mundo de hoy para una mejor compresión del papel directivo. En ningún momento se trata de ofrecer herramientas, instrumentos, métodos o sistemas novedosos que contribuyan a resolver total o parcialmente los problemas que afronta una empresa determinada en un momento dado. Aportar un instrumento más al arsenal de que dispone el ejecutivo de hoy seria una pretensión. La gerencia como medio racionalizador del esfuerzo humano y como elemento capaz de canalizar recursos naturales para convertirlos en bienestar y prosperidad para todos, no se está utilizando suficientemente para producir un verdadero impacto en el proceso de desarrollo y contribuir de esta manera a elevar tanto el nivel como la calidad de la vida. Se trata, en otras palabras, de formular un ferviente llamado a los directivos, tanto del sector público como del privado, para que en su quehacer diario tengan en cuenta algunos principios básicos que parecen obvios y elementales, pero que no por ello dejan de ser importantes para obtener resultados favorables, alcanzar objetivos y hacer de la empresa un ente dinámico, ágil, flexible, sólido y competitivo. En ningún momento se trata de ofrecer herramientas, instrumentos, métodos o sistemas novedosos que contribuyan a resolver total o parcialmente los problemas que afronta una empresa determinada en un momento dado. Aportar un instrumento más al arsenal de que dispone el ejecutivo de hoy seria una pretensión.

The North American Mosaic has four overarching features. First, it is, to the extent feasible, based on comparable information on the status and trends of major indicators of the state of the environment in Canada,Mexico, and the United States. Second, the report confirms that these three countries together make up an incredibly complex, dynamic, and interconnected ecosystem in which humans play a dominant and decisive role. Third, the report raises important and sometimes disquieting questions concerning the sustainability of some current trends. Finally, the report is a reminder that our economic, social, and physical well-being are utterly dependent on the life-sustaining services provided by nature. This report emphasizes the importance of developing mutually compatible economic, social, and environmental goals and policies across the three-country region.

The understanding that some pesticides are more hazardous than others is well established. Recognition of this is reflected by the World Health Organization (WHO) Recommended Classification of Pesticides by Hazard, which was first published in 1975. The document classifies pesticides in one of five hazard classes according to their acute toxicity. In 2002, the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) was introduced, which in addition to acute toxicity also provides classification of chemicals according to their chronic health hazards and environmental hazards.

Human Motivation, originally published in 1987, offers a broad overview of theory and research from the perspective of a distinguished psychologist whose creative empirical studies of human motives span forty years. David McClelland describes methods for measuring motives, the development of motives out of natural incentives and the relationship of motives to emotions, to values and to performance under a variety of conditions. He examines four major motive systems - achievement, power, affiliation and avoidance - reviewing and evaluating research on how these motive systems affect behaviour. Scientific understanding of motives and their interaction, he argues, contributes to understanding of such diverse and important phenomena as the rise and fall of civilisations, the underlying causes of war, the rate of economic development, the nature of leadership, the reasons for authoritarian or democratic governing styles, the determinants of success in management and the factors responsible for health and illness. Students and instructors alike will find this book an exciting and readable presentation of the psychology of human motivation.
