Derhy, Kurtz Benjamin. "Success and the TV industry : how practitioners apprehend the notion(s) of success in their discourses within the Anglophone transatlantic television industry." Thesis, University of East Anglia, 2018. https://ueaeprints.uea.ac.uk/66960/.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the discourses of success within the Anglophone transatlantic television industry through the semi-structured interviews of sixteen industry practitioners. The TV industry has long been studied in media studies, its working conditions discussed in production studies, its texts scrutinised in TV studies; but what drives the TV industry? What is ‘success’ to television industry practitioners? How do they apprehend it and discuss it? Looking at this key element through those at the heart of it is this research’s purpose, and a necessary step for cultural, production and television studies to better comprehend the industry and what drives it and its members. After discussing the methods selected for this research and bringing forth a new, sevenfold taskbased industry categorisation, my research will tackle its subject of enquiry through three main topics: •the perception of decision-makers by industry practitioners •the industrial executive discourses of success among the different industry constituents (networks/cable/premium/public channels/studios); •the personal definitions of success of all practitioners (and their link to industrial/professional success). This research will engage with many academic fields: from discourse analysis and industrial sociology to organisational research and management psychology, through production studies, cultural studies and film/television/media studies, giving it a clearly multidisciplinary scope. With this thesis, I also wish to further help bridge the gap between academic and industrial expertise. By doing so, and making sense of industrial and personal ideas of success, my research aims at developing a new framework for it, thereby proposing to academics a first approach to the notion of success in this industry.

Hamrin, Per, and Martin Persson. "Exploring the Notion of Space in Virtual Collaborations : Finding Prerequisites for Success in Virtual Teams." Thesis, Uppsala University, Department of Information Technology, 2010. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-113739.

Abstract:

Virtual Teams are becoming an increasingly common work form. The ability to connect people with required sets of skills, regardless of their location in the world has been enabled by advances in information technology over the past 20 years. However, as researchers and practitioners have discovered, this new kind of team brings with it number of challenges. This thesis aims to examine the challenges and the opportunities that technology brings to the environment of the Virtual Team and to give hands on advice to researchers and practitioners in the field. The authors have taken an interdisciplinary view on Virtual Teams and Collaborative Virtual Environments. The focus has been on the design of the virtual space as well as early team building activities that support team formation. An extensive literature review examines concepts such as the development of trust, team opacity and shared mental models in respect to the virtual team. In respect to technology, the authors have also looked into research on the transformation of virtual spaces into places, where meaningful activities can been carried out.

The authors recommend anyone considering to assemble a Virtual Team to look at the greater context of the team in respect to the people that will make up the team, the previous history of the team members, the timeline and lifespan of the team and a number of other variables. These recommendations are presented in the form of a framework for understanding the context of the Virtual Team, including its supporting technologies. In certain cases, the team may benefit from engaging in virtual team building activities. For these purposes, the authors have investigated technologies which support interaction in a 3D virtual space where the team member is represented by a virtual persona, an avatar.

The thesis presents an experimental platform, called Teamlink, for conducting virtual ice breaking and team building in a 3D environment, developed in increments at Auckland University of Technology over the past 8 years. Based on the theoretical findings from the review and on an evaluation of previous research conducted on Teamlink the authors give recommendations on future work on Teamlink as well as its suitability as a platform for virtual ice breaking.

Beech, J. G. "An investigation into the notions of 'success' and 'failure' held by senior UK airline executives and their perceptions of the causes of 'success'." Thesis, Cranfield University, 2003. http://hdl.handle.net/1826/112.

Full text
Abstract:
This study explores the notions of 'success' and 'failure' held by senior executives in the UK and Irish airline industry. Previous studies of this industry have tended to be from a positivist perspective, focusing on financial performance at the level of 'airline' or 'airline industry'. This study takes the airline executive as the unit of analysis and is conducted from a phenomenological perspective. A methodology using interviews, causal mapping and postal questionnaires is applied to surface the notions of 'success' and 'failure' and the perception of the causes of 'success' held by board-level airline executives. Standardised data published by the Civil Aviation Authority Economic Research Group is used to establish a range of objective measures, both financial and operational, and these objective measures are compared with the rankings of the senior executives' perceptions of the success of UK and Irish airlines. The research establishes that senior airline executives do not see 'success' in terms of financial objective measures such as Added Value or Operating Ratio; they use profit as the primary financial measure of 'success' and frequently hold notions of 'success' that are based in other functional areas such as operations and marketing. The causes of 'success' are seen as coming from the breadth of functional areas. The influence of HRM factors becomes clearer at deeper levels of abstraction when considering 'success'. There is limited evidence of the stereotyping of perceptions when the success of specific airlines is considered, but not for airlines' success in general. Recommendations for further research into the management of human resources within airlines are made.

Lévy, Ofra. "Théorie littéraire et statistiques : les succès en littérature de l’imaginaire pour jeunes-adultes, de l’explicatif au prédictif." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Paris 3, 2025. http://www.theses.fr/2025PA030023.

Abstract:
La théorie littéraire et les statistiques peuvent sembler bien éloignées l’une de l’autre, et pourtant, leur association permets de proposer un point de vue singulier dans le domaine des Lettres. Cette recherche a été pensée à partir des possibilités offertes par une telle approche, susceptible de trouver une réponse à une curiosité littéraire de l’extrême contemporanéité constatée en territoire français. L’objet d’étude en question est celui de la littérature de l’imaginaire pour jeunes-adultes, qui, en France, témoigne de degrés de succès tranchés selon l’origine de ses titres publiés : avec d’un côté, des œuvres anglo-américaines traduites à la popularité exponentielle ; et de l’autre, des œuvres françaises dont les représentants les plus populaires le sont pourtant bien en deçà de leurs contemporains. Et si certains facteurs externes influents peuvent, en toute logique, être déterminés, qu’en est-il de ceux qui, possiblement, se jouent à l’intérieur même du texte ? Le cœur de la recherche consistera à interroger, détecter, voire prédire, ces éventuelles raisons textuelles à l’angle de la statistique, sans pour autant faire l’impasse sur celles de l’extérieure qui seront aussi examinées afin de mesurer au mieux le poids des influences en action. Soit, pour reprendre la double modalité du titre de cette recherche, un objectif traduisible sous la forme de la problématisation suivante : « Les succès de la littérature de l’imaginaire pour jeunes-adultes en France peuvent-ils, dans une certaine mesure, être expliqués et prédits à partir de la matière textuelle ? ». Cette démarche à la croisée des sciences exactes et de la théorie littéraire, rendue possible par une approche analytique axée sur les typologies et modélisations conceptualisées grâce à une combinaison d’approches en structuralisme, narratologie et textométrie, a pour objectif une mesure et une vérification des caractéristiques de succès externes au texte au prisme de la statistique ; mais surtout, se propose d’examiner des phénomènes textuels sous une forme quantifiable, pour détecter ceux qui se jouent à l’intérieur même de la fiction et les mettre en miroir selon le succès commercial que les œuvres ont connu
Literary theory and statistics may seem far removed from one another, but their combination makes it possible to propose a singular point of view in the field of literature. This research has been conceived in the light of the possibilities offered by such an approach, which is likely to provide a response to a literary curiosity about the extreme contemporaneity observed in France. The object of study is the young adult imaginary literature, which, in France, shows clear-cut degrees of success depending on the origin of its published titles: on the one hand, translated Anglo-American books with exponential popularity; on the other, French books whose most popular representatives are nonetheless far less popular than their contemporaries. And if certain external influencing factors can logically be determined, what about those that may be in action within the text itself? The heart of this research will be to interrogate, detect and even predict these possible textual reasons from a statistical angle, without however ignoring external ones, which will also be examined in order to best measure the weight of the influences at book. In other words, to use the double modality of the title of this research, an objective that can be translated in the form of the following problematization: “Can the successes of young adult imaginary literature in France be, to some extent, explained and predicted on the basis of textual material?”.This approach, at the crossroads of the exact sciences and literary theory, made possible by an analytical approach based on typologies and models conceptualized through a combination of approaches in structuralism, narratology and textometry, aims to measure and verify the characteristics of success external to the text through the prism of statistics; but above all, proposes to examine textual phenomena in a quantifiable form, and detect those at by in action within the fiction itself and to mirror them according to the commercial success that the books have enjoyed

Arias, Carlos Andres. "Un paso pa' delante| Notions of middle class economic success in three Salvadoran advertising agencies in the face of dollarization." Thesis, California State University, Long Beach, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=1593790.

Full text
Abstract:

This qualitative study explores the evolving notion of economic success among middle class Salvadorans. While initially aimed at the effects of dollarization, the scope was widened to be more inclusive of overall neoliberal practices in El Salvador. In-depth interviews and ethnographic observations were used to understand life as a middle class Salvadoran and the relationship between government practices, including dollarization, and the evolving definition of economic success. Focusing on the individuals in the advertising industry, this study examines the complex factors that influence and determine middle class sentiments regarding their economic status and their point of view on dollarization’s effects on their lives. Additionally, this study considers how opinions and experiences differ along socioeconomic lines, comparing middle class employee experiences with that of upper class CEOs. The study was conducted in San Salvador, El Salvador; the economic and cultural center of El Salvador.

Kelly, ALICIA. "CONCEPTUALIZING SUCCESS: ASPIRATIONS OF FOUR YOUNG BLACK GUYANESE IMMIGRANT WOMEN FOR HIGHER EDUCATION." Thesis, 2009. http://hdl.handle.net/1974/1822.

Full text
Abstract:
During the past four decades researchers note that educational institutions fail to “connect” with minority students (e.g. Clark, 1983; Coelho, 1998; Dei, 1994; Duffy, 2003; Ogbu, 1978, 1991). Carr and Klassen (1996) define this lack of “connection” primarily as teachers’ disregard for each student’s culture as it relates to race, and thus, his or her achievement potential. Hence, this disregard encourages minority students to question their ability to be successful. Dei (1994), furthermore, shows a tremendous disconnectedness from schools and education systems being felt by Black students. Few studies give voice to specific groups of Black female high school graduates who opt out of pursuing higher education. I interviewed four Black Guyanese immigrant women to: (a) investigate their reasons and expectations when immigrating to Canada, (b) identify what influenced their decision not to pursue postsecondary education, (c) explore their definitions of success, and (d) investigate how/if their notions of success relate to obtaining postsecondary education in Canada. Critical Race Theory (CRT) was employed in this study to: (a) provide a better understanding of the participants’ classroom dynamics governed by relationships with their teachers, guidance counsellors and school administrators, (b) examine educational outcomes governed by personal and educational relationships and experiences, and (c) provide conceptual tools in the investigation of colour-blindness (Parker & Roberts, 2005) that is disguised in Canadian education, immigration, and other government policies. To support my investigation, I used CRT to guide the research design, modes of documentation, and the process of analysis. It is hoped that my findings and analysis enriches the academy and society by communicating why there is a scarcity of Black Guyanese immigrant women in Canadian postsecondary institutions, making recommendations, to increase their participation in higher education. This study communicates the experiences of four Black Guyanese immigrant women in Canada. It does not intend to make generalizations about the experiences of all Black Guyanese immigrant women in Canada.
