Organizational Aspects Of Modern Management In 21st Century
Everything is changing in the course of time, especially nowdays when the world is in the globalization process and all business processes are subject to turbulent conditions. Every organization in the market must adapt to the market conditions and the environment. As the economy has its own laws and market conditions that are changing on a daily basis, different models of leadership and management are needed. So, this is the reason why management is the most important factor for managing and leading organizations and companies on market effectively. Management faces the biggest challenges and obstacles that companies and organizations have in their work and must overcome in order to survive on the market in order to achieve successful growth and development. Management in the 21st century is probably in the most turbulent environmental conditions in the history of economics. This paper provides an overview of modern management in the conditions of the 21st century, as well as the factors that infl uence the management in the process of creating successful companies and organizations, and the ways in which management companies adapt to market conditions and to the environment.
Strategic Management In A Crisis Context
The current crisis, more than any other disturbing factor, provoked a rough breach in the management’s daily routine, involving major transformations, especially in the enterprises’ strategic management. The complex reality in which a modern company activates, its position, role and responsibilities, makes its strategic management an extremely complex one, a tridimensional process, its three dimensions being: rational and analytic (economic dimension); political (human dimension); bureaucratic (organizational dimension). The strategic management implies taking into consideration simultaneously the three dimensions, each dimension having its role and importance according to the respective context. Omitting a dimension or favouring one of them against another without taking into consideration the context may lead to inadequate, incomplete and sometimes even destructive strategic and organizational behaviours.
Ceramic microwave antennas for mobile applications
Due to their medium to high permittivity values, ceramic microwave materials are attractive as building blocks for miniaturised antenna solutions. Further advantages are low dielectric losses and an excellent temperature stability of standard ceramic materials. Yet, the permittivity of the ceramic material also has a strong influence on the radiation efficiency and bandwidth of the antenna. This implies that in the design process a suitable compromise has to be found between the degree of miniaturisation on the one hand and the antenna efficiency and bandwidth on the other. We describe two approaches towards efficient miniaturised ceramic microwave antennas: the dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) with partial metallisation and the shorting post patch antenna. We focus on design steps taken to ensure both a high degree of miniaturisation and high values of the radiation efficiency, the choice of the ceramic material and the experimental performance of the antennas.
