Book Description
Si la innovación es transformar ideas y conocimientos en productos, procesos oservicios mejorados para el mercado, satisfaciendo de esta forma las necesidades y expectativas de personas, empresas y sociedad en general, resulta evidente que son precisamente las personas el centro de todo el proceso. Esto es asítanto desde el punto de vista de la salida del proceso como en el de entrada,ya que implica al conocimiento que desarrollan las personas. Personas y conocimiento son el tándem que hace posible la innovación. Con esta premisa y con la persona en el centro, podemos analizar cómo influye en el proceso de innovación y cómo es influida por el mismo. Se hace un repaso a las características de las personas innovadoras, las competencias básicas que conviene reunir, asícomo la forma de desarrollar dichas competencias. Dado que el proceso de innovación es básicamente en equipo, también habrá que definirlas características de dichos equipos y el tipo de liderazgo más adecuado para los equipos de innovación. Todo ello desde una premisa inicial, cual es la propia cultura innovadora de la organización, y que servirá de base para todo lo anterior .Un tema que suele pasar desapercibido es el referente a la recompensa de las personas yequipos de innovación. También este apartado hay que incluirlo, ya que nos referimos a la innovación enfocada a las personas.

Book Description
Catalysts are central in modern industrial chemistry and there is an urgent need to develop new catalysts. Such a rapid pace of development brings with it a new set of challenges at all levels of research, from synthesis and characterization to testing and modelling. This book reviews the current status of combinatorial catalysis, scientific catalyst design techniques, methods for preparing inorganic combinatorial libraries, experimental design methods, data processing, system modelling an simulation, and catalyst testing. The individual contributions reveal the development of high throughput catalyst design and test methods and identify the main challenges in the field, including new catalyst preparation techniques, rapid performance evaluation, and new microreactor configurations. Readership: All those working in catalytic process analysis and development. The extensive review of catalysis principles is especially relevant for postgraduate students seeking to pursue studies in catalysis.

Book Description
One of the biggest threats to the survival of many plant and animal species is the destruction or fragmentation of their natural habitats. The conservation of landscape connections, where animals, plants, and ecological processes can move freely from one habitat to another, is therefore an essential part of any new conservation or environmental protection plan. In practice, however, maintaining, creating, and protecting connectivity in our increasingly dissected world is a daunting challenge. This fascinating volume provides a synthesis on the current status and literature of connectivity conservation research and implementation. It shows the challenges involved in applying existing knowledge to real-world examples and highlights areas in need of further study. Containing contributions from leading scientists and practitioners, this topical and thought-provoking volume will be essential reading for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners working in conservation biology and natural resource management.

Book Description
This volume uses the study of firm dynamics to investigate the factors preventing faster productivity growth in Latin America and the Caribbean, pushing past the limits of traditional macroeconomic analyses. Each chapter is dedicated to an examination of a different factor affecting firm productivity - innovation, ICT usage, on-the-job-training, firm age, access to credit, and international linkages - highlighting the differences in firm characteristics, behaviors, and strategies. By showcasing this remarkable heterogeneity, this collection challenges regional policymakers to look beyond one-size-fits-all solutions and create balanced policy mixes tailored to distinct firm needs.
