Repeatedly it has been demonstrated that the specific performance of an individual or a small group of workers have a significant impact on the profitability of a company. Hence, talented workers are vital for companies in order to stay competitive in today’s fierce business market. In addition, in industries where employees constitute the offered product the role of talent becomes even more impor

This paper aims to enhance the understanding of the extent to which non-governmental organisations (NGOs) are able to shape the civil regulation of transnational corporations (TNCs), in addition to civil regulations’ potential to compensate for failed state-regulations. For this purpose, the paper examines the case of Shell’s civil regulation in Nigeria, where the oil-industry is effectively left

In recent decades, pressure on organizations of different types to be seen as diverse, inclusive, and welcoming workspaces has dramatically increased, leading to the rise of the ‘queer-friendly’ organization. Intending to signal themselves as safe and welcoming workspaces, these organizations turn to a variety of physical and non-physical queer-friendly signals, such as queer flags, equal-treatmen

According to the Federal Criminal Police Office, 139 women were killed by their (ex-)partner in 2020. That year, Germany was ranked second highest in estimated number of femicide victims in Europe. As most extreme form of gender-based violence, femicide or feminicide designate the gender-specific killing of women, related to the maintenance of hierarchical gender relations. The topic is little dis

The purpose of the present paper is to describe and discuss the concept of hunter mode, as introduced by Meidell (2022) in her autobiographical description of anorexia nervosa. Hunter mode is a sought-after state that is reached through self-starvation and that transforms a person’s experiences into a crystal-clearperception and a sense of vitality.

Vi studerar blod- och immunsystemet och dess sjukdomar. Ett särskilt fokusområde är hur medfödd genetisk variation påverkar hur blod- och immunceller, och hur sådan variation kan utnyttjas kliniskt. Vilka gener och genmutationer styr t ex risken för blodcancer? Kan vi utnyttja dem för att förebygga och behandla? Vilka styr vår blodgruppsuppsättning? Kan vi utnyttja dem för säkrare transfusion? EttWe study the blood and immune system and its diseases. A particular focus area is how congenital genetic variation affects blood and immune cells, and how such variation can be utilized clinically. Which genes and gene mutations control, for example, the risk of blood cancer? Can we use them to prevent and treat? Who controls our blood group set? Can we use them for safer transfusion? Another impo

This research investigates the gender dimension of the impacts of access to clean and modern energy and technology in productive uses of energy. Rural organizations led by women supported by the EnDev project Bolivia were selected for a multi-site case study. This project aims to facilitate clean and modern energy access, create and strengthen rural markets, and alleviate poverty. The energy justi

Despite long‐standing interest in the evolutionary role of plant hormones, relatively few studies have used hormonally manipulated phenotypes to address questions about phenotypic evolution in plants. In the present investigation, I subjected plants of Crepis tectorum subsp. pumila to simple gibberellin (GA) treatments under both field and greenhouse conditions to assess developmental lability and

The socio-physical qualities of built environments are, in several ways, of imperative importance for children growing up. The Child-Friendly Cities initiative by UNICEF, an implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, has made local governments strive toward child-friendliness. The participation of children and young people is often the focus of such projects, with a potential The socio-physical qualities of built environments are, in several ways, of imperative importance for children growing up.
