Leadership and Strategic Management : Decision-Making in Times of Change
Managers are facing unprecedented complexity, volatility, and ambiguity, quickly adapting their decision-making, leadership, vision, and strategies.Megatrends and forces of change have profound implications for business models, processes, and organizational structures, calling into question current paradigms and designing future change.Additionally, unprecedented disruptions, unforecastable in their nature, have increased the need for resilience and strategic flexibility. The book aims at tackling the potential interrelations among environmental transformations, strategic decisions, and leadership to better understand the role of external and internal factors on the effectiveness of managers.The book defines “change”: its extent, nature, and characteristics.Then, it focuses on decision-making, the role of potential cognitive biases, and how the interaction with the perception of determined environmental events affects the way in which decision-makers decide to implement specific strategies.Finally, in the light of waves of strategic change, it reviews theories on leadership and transformation by looking at the role and traits of leaders. Since environmental transformations have the potential to “disrupt” not only strategies but also decision-making processes and leadership, the book provides a review on the issue and propose an integrative framework which can be useful for both scholars and managers, especially in the fields of decision-making and strategy.

Why Context Matters in Educational Leadership : A New Theoretical Understanding
Why Context Matters in Educational Leadership: A New Theoretical Understanding is unique in the field of educational leadership studies.This book offers a systematic account of educational leadership from the perspective that context matters.It argues that studies of leadership in education can only progress if the importance of context is understood and presents context as a set of constraints under which leadership is exercised. A theoretical book that offers at last three major challenges to dominant positions in the field in a systematic way, it provides a new, coherent, and more realistic way to think about leadership in context.The chapters offer concrete steps for complex problem-solving in schools and will help schools tailor solutions to local constraints and circumstances.Written by leading scholars Colin W. Evers and Gabriele Lakomski, this book will be essential reading for students and researchers working in the fields of education, educational administration and leadership.

Which federal states have sole decision-making authority?
In a federal system like the United States, federal states that have sole decision-making authority are often referred to as "unitary states." In these states, the central government holds all decision-making power and delegates limited authority to lower levels of government. Examples of unitary states include France, Japan, and the United Kingdom, where the central government has the final say on most policy matters. This centralized system contrasts with federal states like the U.S. and Germany, where power is shared between the central government and individual states or regions.

Theoretical or practical?
It ultimately depends on the situation and the desired outcome. Theoretical knowledge provides a deeper understanding of concepts and principles, allowing for a more comprehensive view of a subject. On the other hand, practical knowledge is essential for applying theoretical concepts in real-world scenarios and achieving tangible results. Both theoretical and practical knowledge are valuable and often complement each other, with a balance of both being ideal for a well-rounded understanding and successful implementation of ideas.

What is the difference between theoretical chemistry and theoretical physics?
Theoretical chemistry focuses on understanding chemical systems and reactions using principles from quantum mechanics and statistical mechanics. It deals with the behavior of atoms and molecules in chemical reactions. Theoretical physics, on the other hand, focuses on understanding the fundamental laws of nature and the behavior of matter and energy in the universe. It encompasses a broader range of topics, including particle physics, cosmology, and quantum field theory. While both fields use mathematical models and computational methods to study complex systems, theoretical chemistry is more specialized in the study of chemical processes, while theoretical physics has a wider scope in studying the fundamental forces and particles in the universe.

How can citizens' councils be equipped with political decision-making authority?
Citizens' councils can be equipped with political decision-making authority by implementing a system of direct democracy, where citizens have the power to directly participate in decision-making processes. This can be achieved through mechanisms such as citizen initiatives, referendums, and participatory budgeting, which allow citizens to propose, vote on, and influence policy decisions. Additionally, citizens' councils can be given formal recognition and support from government institutions, ensuring that their recommendations and decisions are taken into consideration in the political decision-making process. Furthermore, providing citizens' councils with access to resources, information, and expertise can help to enhance their capacity to make informed and effective decisions.

Theoretical Statistical Optics
This monograph overviews classic and recent developments in theoretical statistical optics in connection with stationary and non-stationary (pulsed) optical source characterization and modeling, discusses various phenomena occurring with random light propagating in free space, on its interaction with optical systems, extended media and particulate collections.The text includes scalar, beam-like and general electromagnetic treatment of light.A brief statistical description of four fundamental experiments relating to random light: spatial and temporal field interference, intensity interferometry and phase conjugation, is also included in order to relate the analytical descriptions with practical observations.Rigorous mathematical methods for statistical manipulation of light sources useful for remote shaping of its various average properties, enhanced image resolution, optimized transmission in random media and for other applications are introduced.For illustration of efficient ways for manipulation of light polarization the generalized Stokes-Mueller calculus is applied for description of interaction of beam-like fields with classic and currently popular devices of polarization optics, including a spatial light modulator.Random light plays a special role in the image formation process.Three imaging modalities including the classic intensity-based system with structured source correlations, the polarization-based imaging system and the ghost interference approach are discussed in detail.Theoretical aspects of potential scattering of light from weakly scattering media are considered under a very broad range of assumptions: scalar/electromagnetic incident light, deterministic/random light/media, single/particulate media.Then, problems and methods in light characterization on interaction with extended, turbulent-like natural media, such as the Earth's atmosphere, oceans and soft bio-tissues that are currently widely used for communication, remote sensing and imaging purposes in these media, are provided.

Theoretical Nuclear Physics
The last twenty years have witnessed an enormous development of nuclear physics.A large number of data have accumulated and many experimental facts are known.As the experimental techniques have achieved greater and greater perfection, the theoretical analysis and interpretation of these data have become correspondingly more accurate and detailed.The development of nuclear physics has depended on the development of physics as a whole.While there were interesting speculations about nuclear constitution as early as 1922, it was impossible to make any quantitative theory of even the simplest nucleus until the discovery of quantum mechanics on the one hand, and the development of experimental methods sufficiently sensitive to detect the presence of a neutral particle (the neutron) on the other hand.The further development of our understanding of the nucleus has depended, and still depends, on the development of ever more powerful experimental techniques for measuring nuclear properties and more powerful theoretical techniques for correlating these properties.Practically every "simple," "reasonable," and "plausible" assumption made in theoretical nuclear physics has turned out to be in need of refinement; and the numerous attempts to derive nuclear forces and the properties of nuclei from a more" fundamental" approach than the analysis of the data have proved unsuccessful so far.Nuclear physics is by no means a finished edifice.

Astro- or theoretical physicist?
Astro-physicists study the physical properties and phenomena of celestial bodies and the universe as a whole, while theoretical physicists focus on developing and testing theories to explain the fundamental laws of nature. Both fields require a strong background in physics and mathematics, but astro-physicists often work with observational data from telescopes and satellites, while theoretical physicists use mathematical models and simulations to explore the underlying principles of the universe. Ultimately, the choice between the two depends on whether one is more interested in studying the observable universe or delving into the theoretical frameworks that govern it.

What is the difference between a theoretical approach and a theoretical concept?
A theoretical approach refers to the overall framework or perspective that guides a researcher's study or analysis, outlining the general principles and assumptions that shape their research. On the other hand, a theoretical concept is a specific idea or notion within a theoretical approach that helps to explain or understand a particular phenomenon. In essence, a theoretical approach provides the overarching structure, while theoretical concepts are the building blocks that contribute to the development and application of that approach.
