Abstract:

Purpose This paper aims to introduce the concept of business paradigm to conceptualize and explain differences in business interaction patterns in the IMP research. Design/methodology/approach The concept of the interaction and the concepts related to and driven from it describe the business at both a general level. At the same time, the IMP points out the uniqueness of business interactions. This paper addresses the specific lies between the general and the particular by referring to various patterns of interactions. To close that gap, this paper implies the Kuhnian philosophy of science to conceptualize the business paradigm. Findings The business paradigm is a socially constructed collective term. It simultaneously captures the cognitive (what business is and what rules it has) and social (business community) dimensions of the actor’s behavior and actions. It has two interdependent dimensions: cognitive and social. It determines how the actors view and do business, and it explains the variations of interactions. Research limitations/implications Not applicable as it is a conceptual paper. Practical implications Not applicable as it is a conceptual paper. Social implications Not applicable as it is a conceptual paper. Originality/value The concept of the business paradigm is a theoretical extension of the IMP actor’s theory. The dimensions of the business paradigm capture the psychological and sociological characteristics of the business actor. The business paradigm application provides an opportunity to find that business can be different because actors in various communities have various views on what business is and how it should be properly run. Adding the business paradigm concept to the IMP theory implies strengthening the theory explanation power because the interaction explains the business’s general characteristics. The business relationship explains the business’s unique features, and the business paradigm explains the various interaction patterns.

Abstract:

AbstractCategorising something as a business judgment can provide directors with a powerful shield from accountability. It has been said that the courts in England and Wales defer to directors’ business judgments and directors’ decisions are protected from review in other jurisdictions by a business judgment rule. Yet what a business judgment is has never been addressed, and so precisely what is being protected, and why, is unclear. This paper analyses case law in England and Wales and key Australian and US cases to answer this question. It argues that the courts use the term judgment in two senses: an ability, and a decision sense, and that business judgment in both senses can be linked to Knight's concept of entrepreneurial judgment, and directors’ wealth creation function. Conversely, decisions that are linked to directors’ corporate governance function and are less easy to categorise as entrepreneurial are less likely to be viewed as business judgments.

Abstract:

The essence and uniqueness of social business in solving the most sensitive problems of the society, being able to survive independently and ensure the continuity of activities gives this form of activity an advantage and determines its growing popularity. There are many different definitions of social business. Some authors explain the definition of social business by distinguishing the main aspects that distinguish social business from other forms of activity. However, there are also forms very close to social business. The research objective is to present differences of social business concepts and to identify advantages of such initiatives. The analysis of social business concepts has shown that social business is defined by three principles: social business solves social problems that are not addressed by the public sector; the main motive of social business is public benefit; representatives of social business exploit market mechanisms (without excluding the existing ones) when creating social benefits. Research has shown that social business does not yet have one specific definition, but, according to the development and perception of social business, two main directions can be distinguished: Anglo-American and European.

Abstract:

The article emphasizes the importance of researching the definition of "business" in a sociological perspective, its theoretical disclosure and analysis. Business is a significant engine of the economy of any country, from the provision of jobs to the coverage of the demand of the population in certain goods and services, which causes the relevance of scientific research of the concept. Due to theoretical analysis and analysis of statistical data, empirical research data, business is revealed in the light of sociological theorization. The article emphasizes the proximity of the concepts of "business" and "entrepreneurship" in scientific discourse. The influence of scientists in the formation, implementation and deepening of the term was evaluated. Based on this, special attention is paid to the delimelation of the concepts of "entrepreneurship" and "business", where three points of view developed in scientific discourse are revealed. This is a complete definition of concepts and their distinction (in one case, business is considered as a broader concept than entrepreneurship, and in the other – vice versa). In sociology, it is customary to separate these concepts, and consider business as a more meaningful concept. It was established that business is an organized business with a more predictable profit, and entrepreneurship is an activity associated with risk. Business entities, business purpose, functions (latent and explicit) are distinguished, which indicates a certain structure of the concept. It has been found that today there is a wide classification of business according to various criteria, such as business size, ownership form, type of economic activity. Focus on size criteria above all. Small, medium and large businesses are distinguished, statistical and sociological data on these types and their distribution in the country are presented. It was established that business is considered as a social institution in sociology, its institutional character is shown. It was found out that business is a multidiscipnomal economic activity, a social institution of society aimed at obtaining projected profits through the creation and sale of certain products or services.

Abstract:

Changing modern business environment necessarily triggers the need to constantly search for new business concepts, management modes, and performance measurement systems. In recent decades, lean business concept has been widely applied in companies. This concept focuses on creating value for customers. The value refers to the delivery of products and services with all the characteristics required by customers, just in time, and at the lowest price possible. As the basic task of the company is to satisfy different needs, it is understandable that the company success will depend on the success in satisfying its customers’ needs. In this sense, the research subject in this paper is defining a possible system of performance measures in companies that apply lean business concept. The research results show that Balanced Scorecard can be applied in companies that apply the basic lean principles. This is because it primarily takes into account the value delivered to customers, and, based on this value, forms performance measures within the given perspectives. Also, an important aspect of Balanced Scorecard refers to internal processes and learning and growth, which lean concept particularly concerns.

Abstract:

The paper discusses the application of a new cell management system implemented in a UK company. The system was originally based upon the Nissan ‘green area’ (GA) concept but it was extended at the company into a complete business management structure covering the entire business. This new structure involved a GA system in the operational activities of the business, for example shop-floor and commercial activities, a ‘business excellence’ GA system primarily aimed at business improvement and development projects and a business strategic GA system. The GA system was used throughout the business and integrated the activities of cells in the commercial, engineering and shop-floor domains. It was more than the quality circle concept in that it also provided a mechanism for performance assessment, business control, improvement, training and communication.

Abstract:

The MSME support movement in Indonesia is welcomed by business people, especially for young entrepreneurs or the home industry, which continues to grow rapidly and independently. At the beginning of 2020, the Covid-19 outbreak that occurred globally in almost all parts of the world, including in Indonesia, had triggered negative sentiment towards various lines of business, especially the MSME business. The negative impact due to Covid-19 has hampered the growth of the MSME business where the movement of MSME businesses that require showrooms or promotions is hindered. In reorganizing the weakening economic conditions of MSMEs or the Covid recession, it is necessary to manage the business cycle in a Management Busines Cycle, considering that the business environment is very dynamic, so that the business cycle must always be evaluated and improved so that the business can survive and develop. The concept of OODA loop is the concept of iterative analysis to determine the decision of a problem. OODA stands for Observe, Orien, Decide and Act. The term circle or loop because in this concept all processes are repeated until the decisions taken are effective and able to have a significant impact in dealing with problems.

Abstract:

The program to strengthen the concept of genetic intelligence as a concept to improve student soft skills was chosen as one of the concepts and methods to be used for student entrepreneurial development using the experiential learning model. Experiential learning approach is a learning approach where knowledge is constructed through experience transformation. In the concept of genetic intelligence or familiar with the term STIFIn Concept, there are 5 parts of the brain, namely Sensing, Thinking, Intuiting, Feeling and Instinct. The brain turns out to have different parts and chemistry. The results of the STIFIn Concept analysis are knowing the dominance of a person's right or left brain, so that it can be the basis for choosing the right field of entrepreneurship, business partners and business mentors according to their genetic intelligence.

Abstract:

Concept location is a key activity during software modernization since it allows maintainers to exactly determine what pieces of source code support a specific concept. Real-world business processes and information systems providing operational IT support for respective processes can be misaligned as a consequence of uncontrolled maintenance over time. When concepts supported by an information system are getting outdated or misaligned, concept location becomes a time-consuming and error-prone task. Moreover, enterprise information systems (which implement business processes) embed significant business knowledge over time that is neither present nor documented anywhere else. To support the evolution of existing information systems, the embedded knowledge must first be retrieved and depicted in up-to-date business process models and then be mapped to the source code. This paper addresses this issue through a concept location approach that considers business activities as the key concept to be located and discovers different partial business process views for each piece of source code. Thus, the concept location problem becomes the problem of extracting such views. This approach follows model-driven development principles and an automatic model transformation is implemented to facilitate its adoption. Moreover, a case study involving two real-life information system demonstrates its feasibility.

Abstract:

Business Model (BM) literature is growing with many contributions from academics and practitioners. Interestingly, despite a large number of studies focused on BM, we found a lack of consistency in the definition of what a BM is. Using content analysis, this study aims to investigate previous studies searching for a shared definition of BM. A relevance assessment allows understanding most common elements that shape BM, allowing us to draw a definition of BM. Four main dimensions are derived to define the BM: the value dimension, the modeling principles dimension, the functional dimension, the strategy dimension. Finally, results show further needs of development.

Abstract:

Perception of Creativity in International Franchising Business Concepts - Comparison Analysis Between Franchisees and FranchisorsThis paper deals with the topic of creativity and perceived freedom of creativity in international franchising business concepts. It analyses various areas of daily business operations and the franchising business concept as a whole. Its focus is aimed at comparing the perception of level of freedom given in these areas to franchisees by the franchisors and its objective is to find out where these perceptions differ between franchisees one side and franchisors on the other. The model of franchising is not described and the article assumes that the reader is familiar with this business model. The purpose of this article is to analyse and present the situation of creativity in the sector of international franchise businesses. As international franchising is in the focus of this article, topics such as cross-cultural environment in franchising models and creativity across cultures are covered. The method used to collect the data for further analysis is running an empirical research among two populations - franchisees and franchisors from several franchising business concepts active in international environment. Representatives from the two populations were asked to evaluate the level of freedom of creativity given or applied in their franchising business concepts. Respondents were answering an online survey, assessing ten different areas in daily business on a scale from one to five, ranging from no creativity allowed and strict governance by rules defined in the franchise concept to high level of creativity and freedom. Findings from both side of the franchise business partnerships, franchisees and franchisors, are presented including the test of homogeneity of proportions. Therefore some implications exist for further discussions and research, if franchising at all is, in its essence, a method of business concept, which enhances and facilitates creativity, or if creativity is perceived as a danger to franchise system that would harm its global unified approach which is the key principle of the franchis unified brand and concept strategy.

GEC is one of the major manufacturing companies in the United Kingdom with sales to customers outside the Group of £D5553 millions in 1987–8, of which £D1232 millions were exports. Little is known about GEC's huge manufacturing capability. Somewhere in the organization, practically every piece of new technology is employed. Radical changes are constantly taking place. Every manufacturing development is designed to meet the requirements of the business which it is to serve. This paper demonstrates success from matching manufacturing achievements to business needs. Examples will be taken from some of the more mature businesses within GEC where the sceptics may say that change is difficult to accomplish.

Abstract:

The article discusses the concept of social responsibility of business, which underlies the theory of corporate management, and traces its evolution from economic to legal content in the XX-XXI centuries. The authors consider various paradigms of understanding the essence and principles of practical implementation of the concept of social responsibility of business from the theories of corporate egoism, corporate altruism, reasonable altruism to the "pyramidal" concept of corporate social responsibility, developed by A. Caroll, and ESG criteria. Historical features of the perception of entrepreneurship in Russia are indicated as a particular aspect. A proposal is made to popularize entrepreneurship through the work of high-quality corporate management aimed at solving social problems. The article recognizes the relevance of understanding the concept of social responsibility of business beyond economic theory as a universal concept affecting the spheres of economics, law, politics and international cooperation on humanitarian issues. Analyzing the concept of social responsibility of business in the legal aspect, which recognizes the need to balance social responsibility and respect for the interests of entrepreneurial activity, the authors turn to the theory of two orders (space and taxis) by F.A. von Hayek. Our analysis showed that one of the tasks of legal comprehension of the concept of social responsibility of business is the search for a one-to-one correspondence between what is prescribed to the subject of entrepreneurial activity by virtue of the law, and what the corporation voluntarily accepts as its social obligation.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to describe what business leaders can do to promote peace. The paper begins by reviewing the salient literature on business and peace and adding to this discussion, leadership concepts that enrich an understanding of the role of business in promoting peace. Using a case example of a business leader committed to advancing peace, the paper introduces the concept of a theory of change to describe the process of transformation business leaders can take to promote peace. Design/methodology/approach This conceptual paper draws on literature from business and peace and adds literature from the field of leadership studies to enrich the discussion of business and peace. Findings This paper suggests business leaders promoting peace can take action using a theory of change that includes the application of participative and ethical leadership, strategy that embeds peace goals and the use of entrepreneurships in buffer conditions to mitigate identity-based conflict between opposing groups. By understanding a leader’s theory of change, insight is gained on transformational change in promoting peace. Originality/value This paper adds to the theoretical and practical discussion on business and peace by including leadership concepts and the concept of a theory of change as a way to describe business leadership for peace.

Abstract:

The objective of this study was to analyse and compare the concepts permanent establishment and foreign business establishment in order to make recommendations regarding the required additions and amendments to replace the concept foreign business establishment with the internationally recognised and accepted concept permanent establishment. The proposed replacement of the concept foreign business establishment with an internationally recognised and accepted tax concept will enhance the international compatibility of the Income Tax Act 58 of 1962. The use of an internationally recognised and accepted tax concept will provide clarity and certainty regarding the tax implications of section 9D(9)(b) for those affected by it. After comparing the two definitions it was found that, subject to certain suggested additions and amendments, the internationally recognised and accepted concept permanent establishment can replace the concept foreign business establishment in section 9D(9)(b) of the Income Tax Act 58 of 1962 without having a material impact on the objective of section 9D(9)(b). This replacement is possible due to the mutual objective of and the similar components contained in the definitions of the concepts permanent establishment and foreign business establishment.

Abstract:

The concept of corporate social responsibility (CSR) is being supplanted by a new term—corporate citizenship (CC). For many reasons, it’s not a bad idea to replace the CSR term. But the core content of CSR is also gradually being replaced in a significant portion of the literature by a narrower, voluntaristic concept of corporate community service. This is not a viable replacement for the broad ethics-based and problem-solving norms of social reciprocity that are represented by CSR. A more legitimate successor-term is needed so that corporate community relations and philanthropy take their rightful place among the larger set of rights, duties, stakeholder relationships, and opportunities accruing to business organizations.Therefore, we develop a working theory of business citizenship (BC), a more palatable term, and a concept designed to capture the core moral and social content of CSR. In this article we extract and synthesize several key ideas about individual citizenship that have evolved over several thousand years. We then transpose these ideas from the level of individual members of a polity to the level of organizations within society. In a companion article, we extend the business citizenship concept from its single-polity boundaries to the institutional and global levels of analysis. This approach allows a view of business citizenship that accommodates strong moral guidance, structural and institutional realities, and the flexibility necessary to respond to the structures and dynamics of particular company-stakeholder relationships.

Abstract:

During pandemic and economic crises, business units are under constant pressure and face many challenges to find solutions for. Family businesses form a significant segment of the business sector. Competition and the current crisis force businesses to find solutions for sustainable entrepreneurship. Family businesses are gradually consolidating their position in the business environment, especially by introducing a personal approach to the customer (pro-customer orientation) and innovative activities. The concept of innovative marketing (INMARK) represents businesses' opportunity to establish themselves on the market more successfully than their competitors. This work aimed to verify the possibility of applying the concept of INMARK in the segment of small and medium-sized enterprises of family type as an innovative form of marketing management during the crisis. In addition to theoretical approaches, we rely on empirical data obtained by quantitative research in the business environment. In methodological terms, we applied hypothesis testing. As a part of the applied methodology, we verified the applicability of the INMARK concept in the real business environment. Based on the research results obtained, we can conclude that the pillars of the INMARK concept (product innovation, active application of marketing activities) have a positive response among the representatives of the younger generation of family business management, which can contribute to the successful management of these specific business units.

Abstract:

Historical narratives have enriched, and can even do more to enhance, the concept of corporate reputation by deepening our understanding of how reputation changes over time and among different stakeholders. This literature review highlights this theme of reputation for two audiences—business historians and corporate reputation theorists. By showing how different social and political contexts shape expectations for business behavior, historical study can add new dimensions to the study of corporate reputation.

Abstract:

In Malaysia, food trucks are a popular business among Malaysians due to the nature of the business much b he easier, comfortable to the customer and the food served is cheaper compared to the restaurants. In spite of immense attention alongside with the growth revenue towards the food truck business in a span of 5 years, they're also a few unwanted cases arise cause from poorly handling of food throughout the business which is proved that food truck has been associated with almost 70% of disease outbreak (Auad et al., 2018). Although food truck business has expanded years by years, the growth of food truck activities has triggered certain issues and some of the issues might lead to a serious matter. The first and foremost gap is when it comes to the cleanliness of the food served and sold in the mobile premise (Okumus et al., 2019a). The most common questioned is on how the food truck operators prepare their food, the level hygiene of its' utensils, the preparation of mixed ingredients as well as the management waste practice (Donkor et al., 2009). In addition, food truck activities usually can be exposed to a certain degree of unhygienic environment since it has no ability to maintain the quality and freshness of ingredients, the absence of refrigeration system, inadequate of running water, the ability to prevent from contamination and crosscontamination since it has limited space which these of reasons might be the biggest cause to a serious case of foodborne illness (Cortese et al., 2016). These problems might trigger the halalan toyyiban concept adopted in the practices of food truck business. Keywords: halalan, toyyiban, food truck.

Abstract:

The article is devoted to the enterprise concept theoretical framework development, which is objectified in both Civil and Economic codes of Ukraine. Thus, named concepts are fundamentally different. In particular, Civil Code of Ukraine recognises enterprise as an object. In the same time Economic code gives a birth to prosubjective enterprise concept. Nevertheless, both legal acts are aimed to regulate economical relationships, which results to doctrinal and practical needs to identify the optimal approach of understanding the nature of enterprise under the current legislation of Ukraine. In order to identify the place of the enterprise in the system of subjects of economic relations, the relevant concept is compared with other subjects of the economic relations (business entity; business organization) and with the intersectoral participant of business relations – a legal entity. Based on the analysis of these concepts, the Authors claimed a non-systematic approach to concept defining under the Economic Code of Ukraine and other shortcomings of legislative techniques in the definition of the enterprise under named act, which resulted in the absence of a clearly constructed system of subjects of economic law. Thus, the establishment of the place of the enterprise in the relevant system seems impractical

Abstract:

We present a new estimation of business opening and closure rates using data from Google Places—the data set behind the Google Maps service. Our algorithm, through a bisection routine, counts the appearance and disappearance of “pins” that represent unique businesses. As a proof of concept, we compute business opening and closure rates for the city of Ottawa during the reopening phase of the COVID-19 pandemic in mid-2021. The lifting of restrictions coincides with a wave of re-entry of temporarily closed businesses, suggesting that government support may have facilitated the survival of hibernating businesses. Our entry estimates are validated by a survey of new businesses. This methodology allows policymakers to monitor business dynamics in quasi-real-time during rapidly unfolding crises.

Abstract:

Purpose – This paper aims to investigate key antecedents to the use of radical innovation of the business model of a service firm to achieve competitive advantage. “Business model” emerged fairly recently as an academic concept, competing with “sustainable strategic competitiveness”, “strategic fit” (Porter, 1996) and “dominant logic” (Prahalad and Bettis, 1986) to give key explanatory understanding of firm performance. Design/methodology/approach – The article is based on action research, in which the re-engineering of a service business turned into radical innovation of the business model. Findings – Radical innovation (conceived of as a new dominant logic) of the business model of a service firm is shown to give sustainable competitive advantage. It shows how fundamental the concept of business model is to understanding the nature of the business and links it to fundamental academic discussion of recent decades around concepts such as “sustainable competitive advantage”, “structural capital” and “tacit knowing”. Research limitations/implications – This is based on a case, and more research is needed to generalize the findings. Practical implications – In contrast to the knowledge management and structural capital evangelization, much tacit knowing cannot be converted to structural capital. Originality/value – Business model is a central concept to understand business performance, but must not be conceived as all-encompassing. We give a model for what the concept should cover and contrast it with other important models.We show the role of tacit knowledge in a business model.

Abstract:

Purpose IMP literature has developed the conceptualisation of a business landscape comprised of varying combinations of more or less interdependent activities, resources and actors, the form of which are defined by the interactive processes in which they are involved. However, the conceptualisation of the interactively defined business actor presents challenges to the understanding of the nature of business and the process of management. The purpose of this paper is to discuss what it is to be a manager in the complex interactive business landscape and the capabilities needed by business managers. Design/methodology/approach Few, if any, IMP studies have systematically addressed the concept of the business actor directly and the authors do not have a well-developed framework for analysing actors from the perspectives of interaction and networks. This paper analyses the evolving semantics of the concepts of the interactive business actor within some of the literature associated with the IMP research tradition, using the software Leximancer. Findings The paper integrates the analysis into a preliminary framework for describing the characteristics of the interactive business actor. The paper concludes by using this framework to suggest some of the capabilities that are required by the interactive business actor. Originality/value The analysis points to the ways that ideas of the business actor and business acting have developed in the literature. The analysis highlights some of the ways in which the development of these concepts is incomplete and points to potentially fruitful ways in which conceptual and empirical research could proceed.

Abstract:

Research on innovation in agrifood business is looking for new perspectives and for new ways of implementing actual results and of combining different theoretical perspectives. To do so we propose the concept of ‘networked innovation’ to summarize what we consider as the core notions necessary to mobilize to understand the complex phenomena of innovation in modern agrifood knowledge-based businesses and economies. Firstly we summarize the theoretical backgrounds and propose our own definition of the concept, which is rooted in a processual treatment of knowledge creation and transformation that came out mainly from the relevant literature on organization theory, strategic management and knowledge management. Then the content of the notion is developed around three main items, which are: (1) the multilevel embeddedness of innovation; (2) the roles and forms of learning for innovation; (3) the becoming nature of innovation processes. In the concluding comments some implications of the research for agrifood business are proposed.

Abstract:

The problems associated with measuring success in small businesses are primarily caused by a lack of comparable data due to the ambiguity of “success” and by subjective biases. Success evaluation is dominated by the estimates of business owners, who tend to overestimate overall success and internal strengths. However, reliable success measurement instruments would be useful for small business owners/managers as well as small business policymakers. The main purposes of this article are to compare various measures of success, to explore the differences in their outcomes, and to analyze whether a model of success measurement using configurational fit can be used to overcome subjective biases. The study is based on a recent survey of 103 small family-owned businesses in the eastern Austrian border region. Our analysis of the data confirmed the existence of the measurement problems mentioned above. Although some individual indicators show significant biases as well as effects due to company age, size, and industry, the aggregated indicator based on the concept of configurational fit seems to be an appropriate means of overcoming most of these drawbacks.

Abstract:

Engaging students in the classroom is a struggle all faculty face especially in the age of modern technology. This article proposes a novel approach to engage and motivate students through the mobile business “on wheels” marketing concept. The growth in mobile business retailing (e.g., food trucks, mobile dog groomers, etc.) is an appealing concept for today’s entrepreneurial-minded students. This concept provides students with an opportunity to combine their creativity with their understanding of the seminal marketing concepts of a principles of marketing course. The project involves two marketing challenges: the promotion of a mobile business retailing event on campus and the development of a marketing plan for a unique mobile business retailing idea developed by the students. The project provides a variety of hands-on, engaging pedagogies to guide the students from concept creation based on primary research through campaign proposals integrating digital media examples. Resources in project design, implementation, evaluation, and critical analysis of this comprehensive marketing project are outlined in this article. Recommendations for future research and implementation are also provided.

Abstract:

Abstract:In this article we first review the development of the concept of global business citizenship and show how the libertarian political philosophy of free-market capitalism must give way to a communitarian view in order for the voluntaristic, local notion of “corporate citizenship” to take root. We then distinguish the concept of global business citizenship from “corporate citizenship” by showing how the former concept requires a transition from communitarian thinking to a position of universal human rights. In addition, we link global business citizenship to global business strategy and to three analytical levels of ethical norms. Finally, we trace a process whereby global businesses can implement fundamental norms and learn to accommodate to legitimate cultural differences.
