In marketing, sponsorship has been considered as an essential marketing strategy and communication tool. Despite the continued growth of sponsorship research relative to the effectiveness of sponsorship in marketing, a number of sponsorship factors, its effects, and the individual information-processing mechanics remain unexplored. The current research extends on previous conceptual work and incorporates a number of controllable and uncontrollable sponsorship factors such as antecedent factors, mediating factors, market, and personality factors. This paper reviews the literature on sponsorship and presents a commentary to inform future research and development of a comprehensive conceptual model for sponsorship effects.

In this paper, we investigate a relatively neglected but important aspect of team research, namely team goal commitment or the team member's attachment to the team goal. Specifically, we examine whether the performance effect of team goal commitment is contingent on the level of innovativeness of the team task. Furthermore, we also examine five controllable team-level antecedent factors to team goal commitment. Results provide support for the hypothesis that team goal commitment is related to performance only in teams with highly innovative tasks. Moreover, we find three factors (i.e., constructive task feedback, participative decision-making and small team size) related to team goal commitment. Surprisingly, outcome interdependence and team-external obligations are not related to team goal commitment. Implications for practice and research are discussed.

Purpose Brand authenticity has emerged as a strategic imperative for many firms. The purpose of this paper is to empirically examine the effect of consumer perceptions of brand marketing communications on brand authenticity of fast-moving consumer goods. Design/methodology/approach Direct and indirect pathways from brand marketing communications to brand authenticity were conceptualized. Data were collected from US energy drink consumers and analysed using structural equation modelling. Multiple marketing mix variables and context-relevant covariates have been controlled for. Findings Direct and indirect pathways to building brand authenticity have been observed. The total effect of brand marketing communications on brand authenticity is strong, thereby highlighting the predictor’s overall effectiveness in shaping the ultimate outcome. Research limitations/implications The focus on consumer-perceived authenticity as opposed to objective authenticity complements the prior literature. An integrative perspective on brand marketing communications is offered, specifying it as an antecedent of perceived brand authenticity. Practical implications An important implication is that investments into brand marketing communications will likely influence perceived brand authenticity. Such investments may also have favourable implications for the clarity of brand positioning. Overall, brand marketing communications are effective tools for building consumer-perceived brand authenticity. Originality/value A need to outline managerially controllable drivers of authenticity was addressed. How consumer perceptions of brand marketing communications influence brand authenticity via direct and indirect mechanisms was demonstrated. The existence of authenticity in fast-moving consumer goods was also demonstrated.

Full textAbstract:
PurposeThe purpose of this article is to recognize emotional intelligence (EI) as a specific emotional competency possessed by entrepreneurs that facilitates their coping with stressors that arise in their day-to-day work. Highlighting the problem-focused and emotion-focused coping strategies employed by entrepreneurs, the paper establishes that EI in entrepreneurs enables the onset of acceptance of the existence of a stressful situation and that of optimism that a stressful situation can be solved.Design/methodology/approachThe paper reviews literature on the topics related to links between EI, entrepreneurial behaviors and entrepreneurial coping. Subsequently, acceptance-avoidance motivation theory is used to posit that entrepreneurs' EI serves as an antecedent that (1) guides the selection of their coping strategies through onset of optimism and acceptance of stressful situation, (2) assists in perceiving those situations as either controllable or uncontrollable and (3) shapes the actual process through which entrepreneurs cope.FindingsThe proposed conceptual model asserts that entrepreneurs' EI as reflected in their abilities to perceive, use, understand and regulate emotions is key to their coping. EI in entrepreneurs assists them in being optimistic about solving a stressful situation and accepting of such situations as well. Thereafter, selection of a problem-focused or emotion-focused coping strategy or both ensues.Originality/valueThe current work offers a conceptual model that highlights the role of entrepreneurs' EI in coping, integrates both the cognitive and affective components of coping and suggests a variety of avenues for future research. This model extends models of coping that categorize coping types to specify the process thought to be involved. Understanding the role of emotional intelligence in coping with stress by entrepreneurs has theoretical and practical implications which are discussed as well.

Purpose Flow is an optimal cognitive state that enhances consumer satisfaction. This paper aims to examine the effects of website features (product- and service-related cues) on consumers’ flow experiences and how flow affects satisfaction with e-commerce. Design/methodology/approach Responses were collected from 556 respondents who had recently made purchases online. Factor analysis identified a measure of flow applicable within e-commerce. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to test hypothesized relationships between product- and service-oriented cues on flow and the influence of flow on satisfaction. Findings Flow experiences were favorably (unfavorably) influenced by product (service)-related cues. Of the five flow dimensions identified, three (enjoyment, goal clarity and feedback) positively affected, one (telepresence) negatively affected and one did not affect satisfaction. Research limitations/implications Prior research recognized the importance of flow, but its role in e-commerce was unclear, as prior e-commerce flow measures were incongruous and traditional retail findings apply inconsistently online. By empirically establishing a counterintuitive link between controllable Web features and flow and demonstrating how the dimension of flow independently affect satisfaction, the understanding of flow is advanced. Practical implications Understanding the influence of controllable marketing factors on flow can help e-commerce managers enhance consumers’ flow experiences and satisfaction. Originality/value Product-related cues enhanced while service-related cues degraded flow perceptions, with the later effect running contrary to traditional retail findings. The authors assert that this negative relationship is based on consumers’ use of service-related cues online, which are needed when consumers fail to find information – representing flow disruption.

Full textAbstract:
In this study, we examined three sets of antecedents of staff turnover in public universities in Uganda: demographic, controllable and uncontrollable. Data were collected from lecturers and administrators at the universities. Our findings suggest that the extent of controllable turnover is greater than uncontrollable turnover and that poor management practices are the major cause of employee turnover. Poor motivation was reported to be a major problem. In particular, economic incentives were found to be grossly inadequate to retain lecturers in the university system. Therefore, it is recommended that the universities upgrade their incentive systems, especially the economic motivators. The study also revealed that there is a pressing need to make the lecturers working environment conducive for the universities core functions of teaching, research and community engagement.

Full textAbstract:
Improving marketing decision making requires a better understanding of the factors that influence how managers interpret and respond to a market situation. Building on extant literature, the authors develop a model that delineates antecedents of and responses to the interpretation of a market situation. Using case-scenario methodology, the authors test the model in the context of a marketing decision (annual advertising and promotion budget recommendation) with data collected from a nationwide sample of hospital marketing executives. The results of the partial least squares analysis show that (1) cognitive style, organizational culture, and information use affect the extent to which managers perceive a given market situation as one in which they can control the outcomes of their decision; (2) the more managers perceive a situation as controllable, the more they appraise that situation as an opportunity; and (3) the more managers appraise a situation as an opportunity, the greater is the magnitude of their response.

Abstract In the digital age, space has become increasingly structured by the circuitry of global capital, communications and commodities. This ‘network society’ splinters and fragments territorial space according to the hidden logic of networked global capital; with successful criminal entrepreneurs connecting bases in low-risk, controllable territories with high-profit markets. Drawing on a recent, large-scale study of organised crime in Scotland, in this paper we elaborate the relationship between place, territory and criminal markets in two contrasting communities. The first is an urban neighbourhood with a longstanding organised crime footprint, where recognised local criminal groups have established deep roots. The second is a rural community with a negligible organised crime footprint, where the drug economy is serviced by a mobile criminal network based in England. Through comparison of the historical roots and contemporary routes of these criminal markets, we note both similarity and difference. While both communities demonstrated evidence of ‘networked territorialism’, key differences related to historical and social antecedents, in particular the impact of deindustrialisation.

abstract: 摘要
在复杂多变的商业环境中，企业传统的人力资源管理已经难以应对日益频发的员工职业倦怠、人际间矛盾冲突、频繁跳槽等局面与问题。企业员工工作的价值与意义早已不再是传统的雇佣模式下，通过出卖劳动力或智力从而获得工资以实现“养家糊口”的目的那么单纯与简单，员工也希望通过辛勤的工作，以获得个体的幸福感、荣誉感与认同感等。对于现代企业的管理者而言，员工追求事业的提升、个人价值的实现，不仅体现在薪酬、福利待遇的提升，更重要的是员工个人的成长以及潜能和竞争力的提升。
随着组织行为学和心理学的不断发展与演变，与员工幸福感相关的研究备受关注。对现代企业而言，管理者借助制度设计对员工幸福积极管理，可以最大限度地发挥员工的积极性、主动性与创造性，实现员工与企业之间的利益相趋同，从而更为高效地实现组织的目标。基于此，本文以民营企业员工工作幸福感作为研究的切入点，借助理论分析、问卷调查和实证分析相结合的研究方法，系统深入地研究我国民营企业员工工作幸福感的构成、可控前因和绩效后果等问题。
本文研究发现：
第一，员工薪酬的提高有助于员工工作幸福感的提升，薪资对基层员工幸福感的影响显著高于其对高层员工幸福感的影响；
第二，完善的晋升机制对于中层员工而言更能提升其幸福感，完善的晋升机制更有利于中层员工；
第三，公平性的提高有助于提高员工工作幸福感，而且这种正效应更多体现在基层员工群体之中；
第四，高层员工更注重自我价值的实现，高层员工的工作挑战性越高，其自我实现需求获得的满足感则约高，但是对于基层员工和中层员工而言，其效果则恰恰相反，基础员工和高层员工更多地将工作挑战性和压力看作是一种负面的因素；
第五，员工幸福感的确会给企业带来正向的绩效。
本文的研究框架和实证结论不仅可以丰富学术界有关员工工作幸福感的研究，而且为企业管理者进行绩效管理以及员工工作质量的提升提供理论和实证借鉴。Dissertation/Thesis
