Abstract

Embedding management and operational practices survey in a broader firm capabilities survey, this report finds that: (i) relative to the rest of Croatia, an average firm in the lagging region of the country (Eastern Croatia) is only slightly behind in the adoption of structured management practices. Nevertheless, overall, Croatia is farther from a frontier economy such as the United States. (ii) There is wide heterogeneity in adoption of management practices in the country, such that a large share of firms in the lagging region are badly managed relative to those in the rest of the country. (iii) Better managed firms in all regions, including Eastern Croatia, show superior firm performance. What drives better management? Global linkages matter for firms in other countries and in all regions of Croatia except the lagging region. Unlike other countries, firms in Croatia do not upgrade management quality as they age, perhaps due to lack of pro-competitive forces. This report recommends focusing on policies that improve allocative efficiency in the region and help firms establish global linkages, and more direct intervention for improving the management quality of firms.

Abstract

"Culture studies in international business are passing through difficult times of scrutiny and critique. This is due to the fact that the paradigms, approaches, and methods used so far to study culture have been limited in their scope. For several decades now, approaches that consider national cultures and geo-ethnic origins of interacting individuals have dominated management literature. This book distinguishes itself from other books on Culture in International Business (CIB) studies in two important ways. First, it illustrates how Mary Douglas's Cultural Theory framework (referred to commonly as DCF) can be used to explore different aspects of international business. This sets the stage for future scholars to consider DCF as an alternative tool of cultural sense making as opposed to limiting themselves to categorical frameworks grounded in static notions of national and/or corporate culture. The second unique feature is that it focuses on the complexities of the applied side of culture (i.e., it takes a culture-in-practice perspective), while simultaneously emphasizing the dynamicity and diversity of culture. The book concludes by offering suggestions for the future of CIB studies. This domain, it predicts, may witness significant changes in the way culture is seen as influencing workplace relations. It also identifies other areas on which CIB scholars may need to focus attention in the future: culture in an increasingly digitalised world, culture and the organisation as a system, and culture and the intelligent/knowledgeable organisation. It will be of interest to researchers, academics, and students in the fields of cross-cultural management, international business, human resource management"--

Abstract

L’ensemble des textes réunis dans cet ouvrage est le résultat de la collaboration d’un groupe de chercheurs internationaux associés à la chaire Management, diversités et cohésion sociale de l’Université Paris-Dauphine. C’est le second des deux volumes que nous publions dans cette même collection sur les questions de management et de diversité. Alors que le premier met l’accent sur la manière dont cette question est vue selon divers contextes nationaux, celui-ci porte sur des questions thématiques plus précises sur la gestion des différences et l’avenir politique de ces questions. Il comprend trois parties : la première regroupe les contributions sur les liens qui existent entre la diversité, la compétence, la performance et la créativité. La deuxième présente des réflexions critiques concernant certaines catégories de la diversité et certaines formes de discrimination. La troisième cible les questions de diversité en relation avec l’ordre sociopolitique contemporain, tout en essayant de donner quelques perspectives à ces questions. Comme pour le premier ouvrage, le souci est de contribuer à bâtir une solidarité entre les différences, par-delà les frontières nationales et les catégories, en vue de renforcer l’égalité des droits et de promouvoir l’équité et la justice sociale.

Abstract

Management is a fragmented and interdisciplinary area of study, with a lot of academic branches. Willman argues this tree is narrower at its roots, and these roots lie primarily in social science. Key to the purpose of the book is to present management theory as applied social science.Developed out of a core management course at Master''s level, this book introduces the field to students who may have little prior knowledge of management. Willman interprets ''management'' broadly to embrace the sub-disciplines of strategy, finance, accounting, marketing, organisational behaviour and operations

Abstract

Is yoga een sport? Waarom loopt iedereen ineens met enorme koptelefoons? Wat doen mensen met het 'tweede scherm'? Dit soort mysterieuze vragen kun je niet beantwoorden met steekproeven of spreadsheets. Je moet dieper graven - naar belevingen. Christian Madsbjerg en Mikkel Rasmussen presenteren een nieuwe visie op de consument met een aanpak gebaseerd op een mix van sociologie, psychologie en antropologie. Door de emoties, het gedrag en de sociale context van klanten van onder meer Lego, Samsung, Adidas en Intel te bestuderen en onderliggende patronen te analyseren, kwamen ze tot vijf heldere stappen die je op het spoor zetten van nieuwe producten, nieuwe markten en nieuwe klanten.
