Training simulationIn business, training simulation is a virtual medium through which various types of skills can be acquired. Training simulations can be used in a variety of genres; however they are most commonly used in corporate situations to improve business awareness and management skills. They are also common in academic environments as an integrated part of a business or management course. The word simulation implies an imitation of a real-life process, usually via a computer or other technological device, in order to provide a lifelike experience.
Productivity-improving technologiesThe productivity-improving technologies are the technological innovations that have historically increased productivity. Productivity is often measured as the ratio of (aggregate) output to (aggregate) input in the production of goods and services. Productivity is increased by lowering the amount of labor, capital, energy or materials that go into producing any given amount of economic goods and services. Increases in productivity are largely responsible for the increase in per capita living standards.
Autonomous agency theoryAutonomous agency theory (AAT) is a viable system theory (VST) which models autonomous social complex adaptive systems. It can be used to model the relationship between an agency and its environment(s), and these may include other interactive agencies. The nature of that interaction is determined by both the agency's external and internal attributes and constraints. Internal attributes may include immanent dynamic "self" processes that drive agency change.
Harcèlement moral en milieu professionnelLe harcèlement moral au travail est une action persistante de mauvais traitements infligés à certaines personnes sur le lieu de travail par d'autres individus. Les moyens employés comprennent la violence verbale, non verbale, psychologique et physique, ainsi que l'humiliation. Ce type d'agression au travail est particulièrement difficile car les harceleurs au travail agissent souvent dans le cadre des règles et des politiques établies par leur organisation ou leur société, qui dans la majorité des cas est du fait d'une personne qui a autorité sur la victime.
