Summary

Germany currently finds itself amidst profound demographic change. The tasks of the future workplace will fall on the shoulders of a smaller and older potential workforce. 
The 2006 Carl Bertelsmann Prize for Active Aging in Economy and Society is founded on the belief that combining growth and innovation with a high employment rate while preserving social cohesion can only succeed if we foster and utilize the employment potential of every individual. In view of demographic changes, we need to preserve the value-generating potential, skills and experience of older people in particular for our economy and society, and promote their (re)integration into the workplace. In light of high unemployment levels among seniors-and not just in Germany-keeping older people in the workforce longer will demand integrated efforts in various social sectors and on various social levels. This publication presents and discusses challenges, perspectives and strategies that could be very significant as elements of a comprehensive strategy for active aging in Germany.
Available since: 07/30/2010.

    Advertising is being transformed by the move from traditional TV  spots and static advertising placements to  multi-screen marketing, where consumers control their  own flow of content through smartphones, tvs, tablets, and  pcs. This is an unprecedented opportunity for marketers.  This book explains why the secret to effective multi-screen  marketing is NOT to focus on devices (tablets, mobile phones, and  computers) but on the ways customers use them, in order to deliver  the right screen with the right message in the right moment.  Effective multi-screen marketing brings more relevance to  consumers, and more value for marketers.  The authors identify four main types of multi-screen customer  behavior:      Content Grazing, which occurs when consumers use two or more  screens simultaneously to access separate or unrelated  content.  Quantum Leaping, which occurs when consumers start an activity  on one screen and continue it on another.  Investigative Spider-Webbing, where consumers view related  content on two or more devices at the same time.  Social Spider-Webbing, the mirror image of Investigative  Spider-Webbing that is extroverted and focused on sharing and  connecting.     In addition to new research and data on how customers behave in  a multi-screen world, the book includes real-world examples from  marketers and companies who are embracing a consumer-centric  approach to multi-screen marketing, and evoke ways companies can  use technology in service to people, rather than the other way  around.
