Trade Perspectives in the Context of Safety, Security, Privacy and Loyalty

This book represents the work of a team of theorists and practitioners from various Central and Eastern European countries who offer a multidisciplinary approach to security and safety issues which companies in international and domestic trade, as well as consumers, are facing nowadays. Contributions range from the topics of terrorism and piracy, various aspects of theft and theft prevention, to the challenges of security and privacy in electronic and mobile commerce. Therefore, the book is a powerful resource in solving problems because it not only considers security, privacy, and ethical issues, among others, but also discusses how to prevent them before they occur.

Markus Hammer investigates a time-based and analytics-supported operations management approach. He explores five perspectives: 1) the needs of industry, in particular manufacturing in process industries, 2) the impact of digitization, with focus on Big Data and analytics, 3) the management of operations through time-based performance metrics, 4) how operations improvement methods and advanced process control help achieve resource-productive operations and 5) learning from practice based on two empirical case studies. The author conceives, explains, and tests an implementation methodology. The final case study proves that the developed implementation methodology works in practice.

The Changing German Voter

This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. Over the past half century, the behavior of German voters has changed profoundly - at first rather gradually, but during the last decade at accelerated speed. Electoral decision-making has become much more volatile, rendering election outcomes less predictable. Party system fragmentation intensified sharply. The success of the AfD put an end to Germany's exceptionality as one of the few European countries without a strong right-wing populist party. Utilizing a wide ran...

Getting to "Yes And"

Amidst the deluge of advice for businesspeople, there lies an overlooked tool, a key to thriving in today's fast-paced, unpredictable environment: improvisation. In Getting to "Yes And" veteran improv performer, university professor, CEO, and consultant Bob Kulhan unpacks a form of mental agility with powers far beyond the entertainment value of comedy troupes. Drawing on principles from cognitive and social psychology, behavioral economics, and communication, Kulhan teaches readers to think on their feet and approach the most typical business challenges with fresh eyes and openness. He shows how improv techniques such as the "Yes, and" approach, divergent and convergent thinking, and focusing on being present can translate into more productive meetings, swifter decisions, stronger collaboration, positive conflict resolution, mindfulness, and more. Moving from the individual to the organizational level, Kulhan compiles time-tested teaching methods and training exercises into an instrumental guide that readers can readily implement as a party of one or a company of thousands.

  • Publisher: Peter Lang

Die neuere betriebswirtschaftliche Forschung hat den Effizienzgrad des internen Kapitalmarktes als einen wesentlichen Treiber des Conglomerate Discounts von Konglomeraten identifiziert: Diejenigen Konglomerate, denen es gelingt ihr Kapital auf die renditestärksten Geschäftsbereiche zu allozieren, werden mit einer Prämie belohnt. Gelingt dies nicht, droht ein Discount durch den Kapitalmarkt. Die Arbeit entwickelt 24 Thesen zur Gestaltung effizienter interner Kapitalmärkte. Diese werden im empirischen Teil der Arbeit mit Ergebnissen aus Experteninterviews kontrastiert und weiter verfeinert. Dabei wird auch eine Bestandsaufnahme der betrieblichen Praxis interner Kapitalmärkte vorgenommen. Die Arbeit schließt mit konkreten Handlungsempfehlungen an die Unternehmenspraxis.

Kundenwertzentriertes Management

Dieses Buch erläutert, warum das kundenwertzentrierte Management einen neuen Ansatz in der Unternehmensführung darstellt: Zum einen mehr datengetrieben, zum anderen eher übergreifend. Für das Management nehmen die Herausforderungen zu, Entscheidungen mit größerem Zeitdruck und gleichzeitig unter größerer Unsicherheit zu treffen. Einerseits führen die VUCA-Rahmenbedingungen zu erhöhter Unsicherheit und Komplexität, andererseits versprechen Themen wie Big Data und Künstliche Intelligenz aber auch Lösungsansätze in der Entscheidungsfindung, die dem Management im besten Falle Entscheidungen abnehmen können. In diesem Kontext nimmt der Aspekt der Kundenzentrierung (oder Customer Ce...
