Abstract:
The process of detecting, assessing, and managing hazards is known as risk management. It involves identifying risks, evaluating risks, and implementing controls to limit risks. Risk management is an integral part of the overall management plan of any firm. The objective of risk management is to reduce the negative impact of risks on an organization's capacity to accomplish its goals. Financial risks, operational risks, strategic risks, and reputational risks can all have an impact on a firm. Financial hazards consist of threats to an organization's financial health, such as credit risk, interest rate risk, and foreign currency risk. Operational hazards include supply chain risk, technology risk, and compliance risk, which are all associated with the operations of a business. Risks associated with an organization's strategy, such as market risk, competitive risk, and regulatory risk, are categorized as strategic risks. Reputational risks include fraud risk, data breach risk, and social media risk, which are all associated with the reputation of a firm. This paper provides a comprehensive analysis on risk management approaches at Microsoft.

Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to contrast “doing more” and “knowing more” corporations. The paper sheds light on what makes a corporation competitive in the marketplace. Design/methodology/approach – The paper discusses the concept of “doing more”, as exemplified in practice by Microsoft under the leadership of Steve Ballmer. The paper relies on recent debates on Microsoft to make its point. Findings – Based on a survey of the current literature on Microsoft and its CEO, the paper demonstrates that only corporations that are innovative and shape the competition landscape are able to make a difference in the marketplace and significantly alter the competition equation. Originality/value – The paper reflects on the state of Microsoft and what has led to its inability to recognize key shifts in technology and customers' expectations. The paper sets the stage for a better understanding of corporations that are about “doing more” and those which focus on reinventing themselves and their industry by being about “knowing more”.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The high corporate tax rate and the complexity of the U.S. tax code provide U.S. multinationals with the incentives and opportunities to shift income to foreign low-tax jurisdictions. In theory, U.S. corporations are taxed at the statutory rate of 35 percent on their worldwide income, but income earned by an active Controlled Foreign Corporation (CFC) is usually not taxed until it is repatriated to the parent company in the U.S. As a result, trillions of dollars in cash and investments sit in offshore companies, awaiting a repatriation tax holiday. Much of these earnings are held by technology companies. The case looks at Microsoft Corporation, a company with $60.8 billion in unrepatriated earnings as of 2012. The case considers tax havens, nonrepatriation of earnings, cost-sharing arrangements, and transfer pricing and is intended to expose students to the subtleties and complexities of corporate tax strategies. Although the case is set in 2012, the goal of the case is to demonstrate to the students the complex environment in which multinational corporations operate and is independent of any particular tax regime.

Abstract:
Актуальність. Microsoft Corporation значно вплинула на індустрію технологій і відіграла вирішальну роль у просуванні інновацій і виведенні на ринок нових продуктів і послуг. Продукти та послуги компанії, яка має потужну та віддану клієнтську базу, використовують підприємства та окремі особи в усьому світі. Прихильність Microsoft Corporation до інновацій та її зосередженість на задоволенні потреб клієнтів сприяли успіху компанії та допомогли їй стати однією з найуспішніших і найвпливовіших у світі. Мета дослідження – на прикладі Microsoft Corporation окреслити головні шляхи застосування інновацій ІТ-індустрії в медіаіндустрії, в бізнес-моделі яких медійний складник є основним двигуном їхнього ефективного розвитку та конкурентоспроможності на ринку новітніх цифрових технологій. Методологія дослідження. Систему методології нашої розвідки становлять загальнонаукові та спеціальні методи дослідження, а також окремі прийоми та засоби. У досліджені використано такі методи, як порівняльно-аналітичний, описовий, класифікації та структурно-функціональний. Окрім цього, використано такі підходи, як соціальнокомунікаційний, системний та інформаційний. Результати. ІТ-гіганти своїми розробками продуктів та послуг змінюють життя суспільства в усіх сферах. Сфера медіа медіа не виняток. Уже зараз світові економісти, обговорюючи ситуацію зі ШІ, зазначають, що «боятися варто всім, хто не займається фізичною працею» (Задерей, 2023), а власник Politico, Business Insider і Bild пішов іще дальше, вважаючи, що «журналістів може замінити штучний інтелект» (Коваль, 2023). Висновки та обговорення. Компанія має широкий асортимент продуктів і послуг, і це означає те, що вона не залежить від якогось одного продукту чи послуги для отримання прибутку. Це допомагає зменшити вплив будь-якого окремого продукту чи послуги. І в цьому головна мета стратегії диверсифікації Microsoft Corporation.

Abstract:
Corporations play a major role in artificial intelligence (AI) research, development, and deployment, with profound consequences for society. This paper surveys opportunities to improve how corporations govern their AI activities so as to better advance the public interest. The paper focuses on the roles of and opportunities for a wide range of actors inside the corporation—managers, workers, and investors—and outside the corporation—corporate partners and competitors, industry consortia, nonprofit organizations, the public, the media, and governments. Whereas prior work on multistakeholder AI governance has proposed dedicated institutions to bring together diverse actors and stakeholders, this paper explores the opportunities they have even in the absence of dedicated multistakeholder institutions. The paper illustrates these opportunities with many cases, including the participation of Google in the U.S. Department of Defense Project Maven; the publication of potentially harmful AI research by OpenAI, with input from the Partnership on AI; and the sale of facial recognition technology to law enforcement by corporations including Amazon, IBM, and Microsoft. These and other cases demonstrate the wide range of mechanisms to advance AI corporate governance in the public interest, especially when diverse actors work together.

Abstract:
Les Organisations de Développement de Standard (ODS) sont généralement perçues comme des acteurs-tiers neutres facilitant l'élaboration de norme de jure. Pourtant, la compétition entre concurrents et les manœuvres stratégiques y ont aussi leur place. Notre recherche pose la question de l'utilisation par un leader de la coopétition dans le hors-marché comme stratégie de contrôle de son marché. L'étude examine particulièrement les comportements de Microsoft pendant le processus de normalisation d'OOXML entre le mois de mai 2007 et le mois d'août 2008. La méthode utilisée est principalement qualitative et s'appuie sur l'étude exploratoire d'un cas unique. Nous analysons les interactions entre marché et hors-marché à travers l'étude des modes relationnels (compétition, coopétition et coopération) que le leader mobilise au sein de l'ODS français (Afnor). Nos résultats montrent en particulier que le recours à la coopétition dans un contexte normatif constitue une stratégie gagnante pour le leader. La nature de cette coopétition est transitoire sur le hors-marché et permet un retour à un comportement de recherche de rente monopolistique sur le marché
Standard Development Organizations (SDO) are generally perceived as neutral third party actors facilitating the development of de jure standards. However, competitions between competitors and strategic manoeuvring also have their place. Our research questions the use by a leader of coopetition in the non-market as a strategy to control its market.This study particularly examines the behaviour of Microsoft during the standardization process of OOXML between May 2007 and August 2008. The method used is primarily qualitative and is based on the exploratory study of a unique case. We analyze the interactions between the markets and the non-markets by studies of relational methods (competition, coopetition and cooperation) that the leader engages with the French SDO (Afnor). Our results show in particular that the use of coopetition in a normative context is a winning strategy for the leader. The nature of this coopétition is transient on the non-market and allows a return to the behaviour of seeking monopolistic rent on the market

Mercados com dinâmica competitiva baseada na inovaçâo são incertos e sujeitos a rupturas dos negócios envolvidos. Isto é bastante diferente dos mercados maduros, nos quais o equilíbrio de forças estabelece uma estrutura industrial relativamente estável. Mercados de inovação, ou high-tech, e em especial os de tecnologia da informação também estão sujeitos a outros fenômenos ou características que os distinguem dos mercados maduros. Trabalhamos com alguns destes fenômenos como: a difusão tecnológica, a qual está ligada a fatores psicológicos que motivam ou inibem a adoção da tecnologia por parte do cliente; o aprisionamento; a externalidades de rede; a disputas por padrões e a concorrência entre cadeias de valor distintas. Estas características demandam serviços, orientação do cliente quanto ao uso da tecnologia e casos de sucesso exemplares para vencer os fatores inibidores e estimular os fatores motivadores do cliente no seu processo de adoção da tecnologia. A teoria explica que os canais de marketing podem oferecer vantagem competitiva às empresas que bem se utilizam deles, e as características de demanda por serviços e orientação de uso pelos clientes podem ser bem atendidas pelos canais de marketing. Esta pesquisa testa esta teoria através de um estudo de caso sobre a Microsoft, empresa do ramo de software que tem sua atividade fortemente baseada em canais de marketing. Verificamos a teoria, isto é, o canal sendo um elemento diferencial e gerador de vantagem competitiva para a empresa

Abstract:
Abstract In September 2013, US-based computing major, Microsoft Corp. (Microsoft) and Finland-based communications company, Nokia Corporation (Nokia), announced that both the companies would enter into a transaction where Microsoft would acquire Nokia’s devices and services segment, Nokia’s patents and license and use Nokia’s mapping services, for US$ 7.2 billion. Earlier in February 2011, Nokia had entered into a strategic alliance with Microsoft in a bid to combine the traditional strengths of the two companies to create synergies. With the acquisition of Nokia, Microsoft aimed to build on its partnership with the former by accelerating the growth of its share and profit in mobile devices through faster innovation, increased synergies, and unified branding and marketing. The case analyses and highlights the acquisition strategy from the strategic fit perspective as well as the benefits/advantages envisaged by both the companies.

Abstract:
To shed light on how green computing can assist organizations in achieving improved competitive advantage and business sustainability, this chapter has two objectives. First, it aims to develop a theoretically informed taxonomy of enablers that have the potential to incentivize organizations to go green. Second, with the taxonomy as the lens of analysis, it seeks to study the adoption of green computing by two well-known technology giants, namely, Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft Corporation. The taxonomy, which was informed by the theoretical perspectives of short-termism and impression management, identifies three enablers. These include the financial enabler, the technical enabler, and the marketing enabler. Moreover, a case study method was adopted to trace the greenification journey of Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft Corporation. Contributions and implications of the study are discussed both from a theoretical point of view as well as a practical point of view.

Abstract:
Abstract This is an introduction to the chapters of Part II, where the focus is shifting to a special form of development: remedial renewal of a corporation by redevelopment. A successful redevelopment solves the problems of a troubled, stagnating, or declining corporation and gives it a bright new future—perhaps even iconic status. Rational redeveloping leaders use specialized rational means, namely a ‘tool kit’ of five change-making organizational processes. They are cultural or structural transformation, a diversifying or prioritizing reorientation of the product range, and a hybridizing merger with another company. The appropriate tools are discerningly selected and capably used by rational leaders. Five classic cases of this rational redeveloping will be presented in the Part II chapters, including autobiographical leader’s-eye views. The remainder of this chapter illustrates the use of individual redeveloping tools. Satya Nadella is shown culturally transforming Microsoft, Risto Siilasmaa prioritizing Nokia’s product range, and Carly Fiorina hybridizing Hewlett-Packard.

Abstract Information Technology Is Everywhere Information technology pervades marketing When you answer the telephone, a computer may be calling with a sales message. If you buy shares of Intel, Microsoft, or another company listed with NASDAQ, you trade on an electronic market. NASDAQ has no physical location where traders meet. Instead, a network of securities dealers set bid and ask prices through connections to a common computer (see Figure 20.1). When I call Sears, Roebuck to place a catalog order, the Sears operator asks me my phone number. Then she tells me my name and address. Obviously she is sitting in front of a video terminal. Later, when I go to the store to pick up my order, I find another terminal. It too wants my phone number and tells me my name.

Abstract:
The McKinsey 7S model proposes seven key points, including: Strategy, structure, systems, staff, skills, style, and shared values, the last of which is central to the rest. An analysis of case study how this model can be applied to assess a company’s competitive and strategic position. Briefly, Google and Microsoft are American worldwide technology corporations, doing almost the same business sectors that relate to the Internet and Technology. Based on the research results from Google LLC and Microsoft Corporation, all the seven factors in the McKinsey 7S model clearly are aligned and critical for these company’s success. there is a significant emphasis on the human resources, especially in the Shared Value, that strongly interconnect and support each other. Thus, the 7S analysis is useful in highlighting a company’s strengths and challenges to achieve effectiveness and efficiency in human resource management and organisation behaviour.

Abstract:
JAI has developed a simple computer program for use in determining a preliminary estimate of costs for transporting spent nuclear fuel or high-level radioactive waste by legal weight truck or by rail. The JAI Corporation Spent Fuel and High-Level Radioactive Waste Transportation Cost Model © is a Microsoft Excel 2000-based collection of spreadsheets. Both the truck and rail sub-models consist of three spreadsheets, or modules — as follows: • The “Input” spreadsheet accepts the user’s inputs (the user’s configuration of the transportation scenario to be modeled); • The “Cost Calculations” spreadsheet lists cost components and associated calculations; • The “Results” spreadsheet summarized the calculated transportation costs. The program does not calculate costs between two specific points, but rather over a specific distance. The individual inputs required can be entered by the user — or the user can accept the default values built into the program. The input to the program is divided into the following elements: 1. Scenario configuration; 2. Financial assumptions; 3. Capital-related costs; 4. Operating costs; 5. Freight-related costs; 6. Security-related costs. The rail portion of the program also permits the calculation of the cost of heavy haul and barge transport. The cost calculation spreadsheet contains all the algorithms used for calculating each element of cost and summing them — and the results spreadsheet shows the separate cost of capital, operations, freight, security and miscellaneous costs, plus the total cost for the shipment(s). The program offers an easy way for obtaining preliminary estimates of the cost of transporting spent fuel or high-level radioactive waste, and a way to quickly estimate the sensitivity of transport costs to changes in conditions or shipping scenarios.

Abstract:
Este trabalho apresenta um recorte de uma pesquisa de mestrado e tem como objetivo apresentar os aplicativos utilizados na educação, durante a pandemia COVID-19, articulando essas práticas à era dos algoritmos. A investigação buscou compreender as ações que impactam diretamente as escolas públicas municipais, de educação básica, na oferta do ensino mediado pelas TIC, fundamentada no arcabouço dos seguintes teóricos: Alonso, Morozov, Srnicek e Zuboff. Como metodologia, adotamos a natureza exploratória e abordagem qualitativa, através de revisão bibliográfica, observação participante, questionários e entrevistas. Duas escolas municipais, de educação básica, situadas na cidade de Cuiabá-MT consistiram no lócus da pesquisa. Os resultados indicaram diversos usos de aplicativos corporativos, de propriedade privada, muitos do grupo GAFAM (Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple e Microsoft), que extraem os dados da comunidade escolar, para fins comerciais, e que estes usos se deram sem muitos entendimentos sobre a era dos algoritmos, por causa da urgência em que o momento exigia, e porque foram adotados como uma maneira para a educação não parar. Este debate estimula a busca por novas rotas para que a educação não seja tratada como uma mercadoria.

Por lo anterior, el proyecto denominado “Gestión de la información generada por el sistema BMS (Building management system) implementado en el edificio corporativo de la administración del Sistema Portuario Nacional Lázaro Cárdenas S.A., tiene como finalidad crear diferentes herramientas para gestionar la información relacionada con la medición de consumo del BMS, el esquema de facturación de energía eléctrica y la generación del sistema fotovoltaico, modificación de alarmas y de la interfaz gráfica. Tomando como referencia, los procedimientos manuales que llevaba dicha empresa lo cual desencadeno errores en el proceso de ejecución de corrección de errores como el direccionamiento IP, Problemas de comunicación con dispositivos, perdida de comunicación entre sensores y sistema BMS, etc. En consecuencia, para gestionar toda la información y generar informes de múltiples variables como consumo, costos, demanda, etc., de energía eléctrica convencional, fotovoltaica, consumida y generada por la empresa durante cada mes se realizaron herramientas con la ayuda de Microsoft en visual Basic para las diferentes interfaces y bases de datos en Excel, las cuales tienen la capacidad de capturar, graficar, seleccionar, categorizar y generar reportes automáticamente de los diferentes sistemas por medio de programación en Visual Basic de Excel de Microsoft. Por último, se lograron cumplir las actividades propuestas al inicio del proyecto de pasantía permitiendo crear diferentes herramientas de gestión con base de datos de toda la información de los recibos de energía, información de consumo que tiene el sistema BMS y un reportador del estado actual del sistema fotovoltaico. Las técnicas desarrolladas dejan abierta la posibilidad de personalizar la interfaz gráfica, visualizar gráficas de comportamiento entre intervalos de tiempo, corrección de problemas de comunicación que tenía el BMS con el panel contra incendios, mejoramiento de las alarmas del sistema, cambio de toda la interfaz gráfica. Adicionalmente, se crearon estaciones de trabajo y el centro de monitoreo de consumo, permitiendo el ahorro total de 43109 dólares con las mejoras y correcciones de errores del BMS partiendo de cotizaciones anteriores por parte de la empresa ISDE. Además, con la implementación de esta nueva tecnología en el desarrollo de las actividades administrativas se logró una reducción de tiempo de hasta el 97% en la realización de procesos, como la gestión y recolección de datos emitidos por Comisión Federal de Electricidad y el Building Management System que maneja la empresa.

Abstract:
In the last ten years, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic, growth of digital socialization has dramatically increased. The concept of the met averse, a virtual parallel world where people& lives might be digitally copied, is emerging quickly as a result of Meta’s expanding digital revolution. Users in the met averse have their virtual personas represented by avatars in assimilated online community. Based on user choices and interactions, these virtual worlds continue to develop and expand. The met averse is yet another venue for people who enjoy collecting stuff to display their passions. Despite the fact that there are guiding principles that might guide the kinds of techniques used, the met averse is still a relatively unexplored platform that offers lots of opportunity for experimentation. The purpose of Met averse is to increase consumer engagement while delivering a seamless brand experience. Virtual reality, 3D, and artificial intelligence may be used to provide captivating and successful advertising for the younger generation in this new digital environment. A number of businesses have started working together strategically to introduce their products in the Metaverse. Metaverse has become a main goal for major corporations like Facebook, Microsoft, and Google in order to be at the forefront of creating this ground-breaking creation. With the intention of “bringing the met averse to life,” Face book even changed its name to Meta. The prospect of the met averse is currently more real than hypothetical. This study is carried out to throw light on how Metaverse is transforming marketing scenario.

Lazonick, William, and Matt Hopkins. Why the CHIPS Are Down: Stock Buybacks and Subsidies in the U.S. Semiconductor Industry. Institute for New Economic Thinking Working Paper Series, September 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.36687/inetwp165.

Abstract:
The Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) is promoting the Creating Helpful Incentives to Produce Semiconductors (CHIPS) for America Act, introduced in Congress in June 2020. An SIA press release describes the bill as “bipartisan legislation that would invest tens of billions of dollars in semiconductor manufacturing incentives and research initiatives over the next 5-10 years to strengthen and sustain American leadership in chip technology, which is essential to our country’s economy and national security.” On June 8, 2021, the Senate approved $52 billion for the CHIPS for America Act, dedicated to supporting the U.S. semiconductor industry over the next decade. As of this writing, the Act awaits approval in the House of Representatives. This paper highlights a curious paradox: Most of the SIA corporate members now lobbying for the CHIPS for America Act have squandered past support that the U.S. semiconductor industry has received from the U.S. government for decades by using their corporate cash to do buybacks to boost their own companies’ stock prices. Among the SIA corporate signatories of the letter to President Biden, the five largest stock repurchasers—Intel, IBM, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, and Broadcom—did a combined $249 billion in buybacks over the decade 2011-2020, equal to 71 percent of their profits and almost five times the subsidies over the next decade for which the SIA is lobbying. In addition, among the members of the Semiconductors in America Coalition (SIAC), formed specifically in May 2021 to lobby Congress for the passage of the CHIPS for America Act, are Apple, Microsoft, Cisco, and Google. These firms spent a combined $633 billion on buybacks during 2011-2020. That is about 12 times the government subsidies provided under the CHIPS for America Act to support semiconductor fabrication in the United States in the upcoming decade. If the Congress wants to achieve the legislation’s stated purpose of promoting major new investments in semiconductors, it needs to deal with this paradox. It could, for example, require the SIA and SIAC to extract pledges from its member corporations that they will cease doing stock buybacks as open-market repurchases over the next ten years. Such regulation could be a first step in rescinding Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-18, which has since 1982 been a major cause of extreme income inequality and loss of global industrial competitiveness in the United States.
