Leadership: A Frame of Reference

Management Science, 1957
The word “leadership” has been widely used. Political orators, business executives, social workers, and scholars employ it in speech and writing. Yet, there is widespread disagreement as to its meaning. Among social scientists, the theoretical formulations of the leadership concept have continued to shift, focusing first upon one aspect and then upon ...

Frames of Reference

1999
The culture and the politics of early modern England have both inspired prodigious quantities of scholarship. These subjects have normally been studied separately, however, by experts trained in different disciplines, employing different tools, asking different questions and often taking little notice of each other’s preoccupations. The division partly

Frame of reference

2017
The objective of this chapter is to provide a frame of reference for the study’s research questions. I will therefore introduce the innovation concept (section 2.1) by distinguishing between innovation as an outcome (section 2.1.1) and innovation as a process (section 2.1.2).

Frames of reference in spatial span

Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 2011
In four experiments, a computerized Corsi-like paradigm was used to assess which of the many reference frames are used in visuospatial short-term memory. By varying the relative orientation (slanted +/–45° or in an upright position) of the head and the displays, we modulate the utility of the allocentric, egocentric (eye- and head-centred), and ...

Frame of Reference

2015
The Kyoto Protocol from 1997 heralded a new era toward a sustainable future many believed; however, it should come as no surprise that little has happened. While some might argue that it is because some has not ratified the agreement, the reality is that it could never succeed.

Frames of Reference

2017
Frames of reference are meta-cognitive models through which researchers reconstruct the phenomena into intelligible explanatory narratives. These frames guide the actions of the researchers by giving them general orientation of how to look at the complex phenomena. They belong to the class of meta-codes (general assumptions) with theory building.

Object localisation and frames of reference

Cognitive Processing, 2004
In this paper, we explore which spatial frames of reference, egocentric or allocentric, are used to locate objects either in relation to ourselves (i.e. subject-to-object localisation) or to other objects (i.e. object-to-object localisation). In particular, we wanted to know whether the same or different frames of reference are used in these two ...

A Frame of Reference for SOA Migration

2010
Migration of legacy systems to service-based systems constitutes a key challenge of service-oriented system engineering, namely rehabilitation of pre-existing enterprise assets while conforming to service engineering principles. Over a decade there has been an increasing interest in the approaches addressing SOA migration.

Extragalactic Reference Frames

1989
The idea of using extragalactic objects to define the celestial reference frame is quite old, having been discussed by Herschel and Laplace some two hundred years ago, even before there was proof that such objects existed. Any object sufficiently distant would have no detectable proper motion, thus avoiding one of the chief complications of the stellar

Accelerated Reference Frames

2009
This chapter begins with an introduction to the formalism used to project four-dimensional spacetime into a 3-dimensional spatial 3-space. Then we apply this formalism to deduce the spatial geometry in a rotating reference frame and discuss Ehrenfest’s paradox.
