Abstract:

This thesis draws on work done as part of a joint research project on industrial networks in Hungary and Slovenia, in which I participated in studying the types and depth of cooperation between buyers and suppliers [Dyker et al. 2003]. The theoretical motivation for this study is that industrial ties between firms are socially embedded and that this social embeddedness needs to be considered in order to understand the process by which the economies of the post-socialist countries of Europe are integrating into European production networks. We chose Slovenia as a country that has benefited from

Abstract:

This thesis consists of three studies of social intervention in Sudan. The first offers a critique of institutional voids, a concept used to describe contexts lacking neoliberal market institutions, intermediaries, and practices. Notions of voids underpin much liberal peace thinking and justify postwar interventions that seek to build institutions to support peace and recovery. Similarly, the concept of voids is increasingly used in management and organization studies to describe emerging market and poverty contexts. The question 'What institutional arrangements exist in institutional voids?'

Abstract:

This thesis reports on an exploratory study of corporate social responsibility (CSR) in a developing countries context and with special reference to the mining and agricultural industries in Malawi. CSR in Malawi is progressively becoming a significant and complex area of investigation not only for business ethics scholars, but also to development scholars and practitioners. It is considered a crucial issue not only because of the complexity of the social, economic and political environment in which companies operate, but also because of the many social and environment impacts which business a

Abstract:

This thesis examines intra-organizational opportunities and career paths for managers in the context of a general trend of downsizing. The thesis presents new evidence on the impact of the trend on the traditional career and aims to produce an analysis that moves beyond the optimistic and pessimistic accounts. The strength of an in-depth investigation was sought in companies within the same industrial environment and labour market. All the research sites are in the automotive sector and geographically located in the Midlands, England. Field work was carried out at Rover Group Ltd., LucasVarity

Abstract:

Using large-company panel data, this thesis empirically analyses investment decisions in major European countries. We particularly concentrate on three issues: the taxation of capital in the EU, the role of agency costs of debt on investment decisions, and the empirical analyses of the investment-uncertainty relationship. First, based on a dynamic system in capital and Tobin's q ratio, some simplified analytical results are derived to simulate various tax policy effects on investment. Also, for a single investment project, a model is developed to consider jointly the role of uncertainty and ir

Abstract:

There is limited recent evidence from the UK on the sourcing and backgrounds of Chief Executive Officers (CEOs). Practitioner views are dominant and suggest a frequent “churn” of these individuals between lucrative roles. In particular, the implications of hiring profiles, organisational career paths and demographic backgrounds have not featured in the research focus, which has perpetuated the practitioner view of CEO succession. The governance implications of CEO successions in non-domestic companies are linked to home market culture to seek validation for different approaches to compliance w

Abstract:

The Travelling Salesman Problem (TSP) is a special case of the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) which concerns with finding a tour from one city to another in such a way that each city is visited exactly once and the total travel length is minimal. The literature has established that, thus far, studies that consider both practical and theoretical aspects of routing problems have received relatively little attention from the researchers and practitioners. This thesis aims to bridge a gap between the two aspects by exploring two case studies of Coventry City Council (CCC), namely the Meals Delivery

Multiple studies are employed to address some of the gaps which have been identified in the literature. The first study analyses corporate insolvency in the GCC region between 2004 and 2011 using multiple methodologies: a Logit model, supplemented by a Probit model and a 3-way MDS model, which enables the visualisation of key differences between insolvent and solvent firms, supplemented by Hierarchical Cluster Analysis.

Abstract:

Talent identification (TID) has implications for practice and theory in light of the increasing popularity of talent management (TM). However, because of the diverse ways and settings in which it occurs, the field of TM lacks conceptual and theoretical boundaries concerning what it means and how it is practiced. Most research takes place in large profit-seeking firms and the main focus of this thesis is to explore how talent and TM are conceptualised in public sector organizations. A qualitative case study methodology was used to gain insights from three public sector organizations and one lar

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the internationalisation of production and its implications for the role of government in South Africa's industrial development. The research has two specific areas of focus. The first is a case study of government policy formulation and implementation in the instance of competition policy. The second is a study of firms in the plastics sector. Through an analysis of secondary data on the performance of manufacturing sub-sectors it is demonstrated that the expectations of the policy of trade liberalisation have not been realised in South Africa, nor are the outcomes

The thesis presents a study of the process of transfer of management development (MD) practices within multinational companies (MNCs).

It considers the influence of institutional context on the ways in which MD practices are transferred and received in MNCs, and identifies further factors shaping MD practices and their transfer process in MNCs. The findings challenge the notion that the transfer and structuring of MD around a system, which aims at the development of a homogeneous management cadre, is possible. T
