"Adapt or perish, now as ever, is Nature's inexorable imperative. " -H. G. Wells, Mind at the End of Its Tether (1946) Doctors are trained to treat people suffering from various diseases. This is the main form of their activity and usually the reason for which they selected medicine as their profession. The notion that they should become managers and engage in activi ties such as programming, calculating cost, assessing cost-benefit ratios, and thinking about pricing in accordance with the social utility of their intervention, is both foreign and abhorrent to them. They are sometimes willing to say how much they need in order to have a well-functioning service: usually they prefer to state what specific apparatus and other things they require without specifying the price of their demand. They can be persuaded to add a price tag to what they think is necessary for their work: but that was about as far as they would go, until recently. The growing emphasis on human rights over the past few decades, the greater emphasis on quality of life and the public's heightened expectations about their health led, in many industrialized countries, to a greater demand for health services. This, com bined with improved possibilities of diagnosis and treatment (at higher cost!), led to a significant increase in financial demands which made governments and health-care systems uneasy and ready to accept any solution that would stop the spiral of seem ingly endless cost augmentation.

The papers examine aspects of materials and building systems; construction technology; energy and sustainability; construction management; heritage, refurbishment and conservation. The information contained within these pages may be of interest to researchers and practitioners in construction and building activities from the academic sphere, as well as public and private sectors.

A todas estas cuestiones te doy respuesta en este libro. Este libro es para todos aquellos que buscan dejar de ser empujados por una inercia que no controlan, y con ello tomar las riendas de sus visiones, para llevarlas al campo de la acción. Es para todos aquellos que buscan la libertad, la coherencia y la presencia en la gestión. Es para todos aquellos que quieren abrir definitivamente su vida y sus organizaciones a una nueva forma de percibir, de pensar, de sentir, de hacer y de ser. Una nueva forma de liderar más consciente, más organizada, más constante en su esfuerzo, más enfocada, más saludable, y al final, más rentable. Menos estresada y sufrida. En este libro te propongo el Modelo Ejecutivo de Liderazgo, el primer modelo diseñado desde el conocimiento neuropsicológico de la inteligencia ejecutiva y sus funciones. En este libro te desvelo las claves para entender la parte ejecutiva de la inteligencia humana, y el cómo aplicarlo al día a día de liderar. Porque necesitamos un conjunto de competencias nuevas, que nos ayuden a dirigir la inteligencia en todas sus funciones: desde la percepción, hasta el paso a la acción. Doce funciones para liderar un futuro mejor. Visión Cumplida es para todas aquellas personas que desean transformar la inteligencia de sus organizaciones, y convertirlas en sistemas que evolucionan y se preadaptan a las necesidades de su contexto interno y externo actuales y futuros. La inteligencia de los líderes nunca antes se ha enfrentado a una complejidad, volatilidad y multiplicidad de opciones de pensamiento y acción como las actuales. Y, en medio de todo esto, tiene un gran reto: construir y seguir una visión mejor. Solo construyendo mejores visiones, y moviéndonos hacia ellas, conseguiremos evolución. Este fue siempre el fin último de la inteligencia.
