Produktbeschreibung
Place is more than a location for an organization or community. Place is the seam of connectedness and intersections between an organization and its community. In this book, the editors have gathered research from across the globe to further explore the many forms of this connecting and intersecting seam of PLACE. This interdisciplinary concept connects geography, human geography, ecological and environmental psychology, and many others in the academic and applied fields. Thomas and Banning looked at the 13 years of research on how organizations valued the places where they reside and discovered that academic and practioneers alike were looking for a different perspective on how organizations relate to their communities. There was great interest in seeing how place can and should play an important role in the strategic relationships organizations have with their communities, their clients, and their employees. The editors demonstrate in this book that place is not just a location, but connections and intersections with important community structures, values, and social responsibility. This book lays out the three principles of place building, the four types of place builders, and the five place dimensions that provide the conceptual framework needed to explore the complexities of the connections and intersections of organizational place building.
