Proper Representation

This chapter deals with something which is widely spoken about, and very little know: Strategic Management. Following an evidence based approach, the author objective is to explain why Strategic Management is a scale invariant process that allows who uses it to identify possible and plausible solutions to complex issues. Some of the basics and analyticals of strategic management, such as strategic planning, SWOT analysis, Scenarios, are going to be described in detail. Detailed considerations will be presented on the issue of time and timing, a fundamental parameter that is too often neglected or taken as granted. The importance of strategic management to allow organisations to learn, change and evolve will be described. Some considerations on the importance of using the proper representation of the organisation's structure will be presented.

Selection Of

It has been argued that during selection of target objects, irrelevant distractor objects are inhibited (e.g. Tipper, 1985). This article examines whether distractor inhibition is an invariant process that occurs in the same way for each act of selection, or whether it is a flexible process that adjusts to particular behavioural goals. We review previous studies and report new experiments that demonstrate that inhibition is a flexible process. Those internal representations of the distractor that are most associated with the action to be directed toward the target are inhibited. Other properties of the ignored object can remain in an active state and can facilitate subsequent behaviour.
