En este libro Fernando Troilo plantea y responde los siguientes interrogantes: ¿Cuáles son las competencias críticas para el desempeño efectivo de la posición de CEO? ¿Qué influencia tiene el contexto organizacional en la adquisición y desarrollo de las competencias críticas y cuáles son aquellas que los diferentes entornos permiten desarrollar? ¿Qué efecto tiene la cultura organizacional y sobre qué competencias los distintos tipos de cultura organizacional influyen principalmente?

This paper presents a model of a game between a soccer kicker and a goalkeeper, in which each player is trying to score a goal or to avoid such goal. In this version of the penalty-kick game, there are two possible strategies for each player (related to the place that they choose to kick or to move themselves) and there is also uncertainty about the kicker’s type (with two possible types of kicker).

China's drive toward becoming a soccer superpower is reflective of its own political economy. On the political side, its objectives are national pride domestically, and great power status internationally. Public agencies, subnational (provincial) governments and local (municipal) authorities follow the Chinese Communist Partýs top-down approach. On the economic side, the evolution of Chinese football is to build integrated industrial supply- chains, which enables the country and its businesses to exert control at all levels of production.

The thrust of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the pressure of stakeholders in the industry make employers require new workforce strategies. Both the OECD and the WEF, in their 2018 reports, have presented the situation as a global challenge: meeting the new demands requires heavily focus on the nature of future jobs and on the skills required from workers to secure those jobs.

El objetivo de este trabajo es identificar los determinantes de la reducción de uso del factor trabajo en el sector agropecuario argentino. Se focaliza la atención en los años 2002-2018, período comprendido entre los dos últimos Censos Nacionales Agropecuarios que presentan resultados confiables (el CNA 2008 quedó incompleto).

This paper studies the relationship between mass immigration in Argentina and the rise of Juan D. Perón (the iconic Argentine populist leader) in the mid-20th century. We find no evidence suggesting that mass immigration to Argentina from 1876 through 1925 explains Peronism directly or indirectly, such as through a reaction to immigrants or their descendants. Instead, a weak institutional framework and domestic conditions independent of immigrants’ role in Argentine economics and society explain Peronism's rise.

The main purpose of this chapter is to analyze decoupling between carbon emissions and economic activity for the different countries in the world within the 1990–2012 period. We qualify decoupling cases. Countries are ranked from those that decrease emissions while expanding activity (strong decoupling) to those that augment their greenhouse gases and are in recession (strong negative decoupling).

We aim to study technical efficiency of undergraduate teaching activity in national (public) universities in Argentina. We employ a stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) with a panel of 37 national universities over 2005-2013. We compare models that do not account for heterogeneity with heterogeneityextended SFA models. We find from 18 percent to 25 percent of inefficiency on average in terms of lost outcomes (graduates) depending on the specification, with high dispersion among universities. Models considering heterogeneity report the highest levels of technical efficiency.
