The short length and rapid flow of rivers in Taiwan lead to vast differences between river reservations and silting. River dredging is a necessary measure to reduce flood damage and prevent secondary disasters from striking residents along riverbanks during flood seasons[1]. The government of Ilan County in Taiwan was the first to perform river dredging projects using public administration (PBA). This approach resulted in strong performance in disaster prevention and increased local sources of income[1]. However, operational mode was adopted by government departments, the efficiency of which is lower than that of government-owned but privately-run organizations. In other words, the PBA method increased governmental revenue; however, it remains unknown whether overall effectiveness was enhanced. A river dredging project commissioned by Hsinchu County incorporated professional construction management (PCM) in addition to PBA to increase operational performance[2]. This study analyzed and compared the two projects. From the aspect of management, river dredging conducted under the PBA method complicates operational management. Commissioning PCM for operations enables the coordination of various interfaces and enhances the progress of construction. PCM teams also serve as the connecting link between owners and contractors through the implementation of multi-layer structures, hierarchical responsibilities, centralized management, mutual supervision, and reduced abuses, enhancing overall project quality.

Full textAbstract:
Succession literature addressed factors affecting the development of successors’ leadership skills. Yet the role professional advisors play in this process is not well understood. This study contrasts the detailed descriptions of four advisor-directed leadership development processes, to suggest a grounded theory of how advisors can facilitate the construction of successors’ leadership. Adopting an insider–outsider approach to the collection and analysis of ethnographic data, the study revealed that the assumption of a transitional leadership role by advisors—an interim leadership held by the advisor while supporting the successor’s leadership development—was critical to moving the succession process forward.

Full textAbstract:
The topics explored with the 2019 business information survey participants concern the challenges and opportunities that new and expanding sources of data and content, and new tools and technologies have already brought to the table. And a look ahead at how they might continue to change the business information landscape. Specific questions and topics raised during the primary survey interviews ranged from: How can the information professional make sure the right skills are available to their organization to manage these effectively? Is a potential role of the information professional individual or team to be the organizational strategic advisor for data and information? The integrity and ethics of data, particularly new sources: Where does the data come from? How is it being manipulated? Through to: How critical will good ethical standards be in the future? The survey report doesn’t answer all the questions raised, but it does give a clear indication that today’s information professional is continuously looking for the best response to each challenge.

Full textAbstract:
Three years ago, Steve Thornton purchased the South End Mustangs, a professional ice hockey team competing in the D1 division in the United Kingdom. Unfortunately, Thornton has experienced challenging times during his ownership tenure. The team has achieved mediocre results on the ice and poor results off the ice. Thornton knows he needs help to turn the Mustangs franchise around. Thus, as a result, he turns to John Tapner, a sport business owner, operator, entrepreneur, and advisor. Tapner is best known as a professional sport consultant and TV personality, representing his company Sports Rescue, which is the same name as his hit television show. When an owner calls Tapner, it is because a professional sports team is in trouble and needs to be rescued.

Full textAbstract:
Ram’s career has spanned over 40 years, during which he has donned multiple avatars: corporate leader (CEO), business builder, government advisor, angel investor and runaway monk internship. He is presently a systemic leadership coach. In this article, he argues that Indian leaders are schizophrenic. On the one hand, they are torn between the inherited cultural values of harmony and family obligations, and on the other hand, a product of imbibed Western B-School concepts of professional management and profit above all else. This dichotomy leads to hypocrisy and duplicity in Indian business. This is evidenced by treating people as means to an end rather than resources, much talked about, but not practised. Unlike their more forthright Western counterparts, who make no bones about profit making, Indian business leaders pretend to be of service to society and the system; yet acting only for personal gains of wealth and power through manipulation and lack of transparency. Ram shares his experiences on Indianness and the Indian business leaders. He explores where the hypocrisy may possibly emanate from, how this behaviour is at odds with changing generational needs and what are the likely fallouts even while pointing to emerging trends of systemic approach moving from diversity to unity, built on people engagement and collaborative teamwork in leadership. Indian companies and leaders, he argues, have what it takes to be far better and greater than they are now.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – This study aims to explore the existence and strength of power through focussing on the manner in which accountants exercise power in their advisory relationship with small business. Design/methodology/approach – Interviews provided insights into accountants’ power-related perceptions, experiences and use of power in the advisory relationship. A questionnaire accessed evidence from small business owner-managers (SBOMs). Power theoretical perspectives informed the analysis of the findings. Findings – Accountants’ expert and information power is a consequence of SBOMs’ dependence on their accountants’ expertise and knowledge. Accountants construct advisor roles and exercise power in a manner indicating that they attempt to manage rather than exploit power imbalances to the detriment of dependent SBOMs. However, outbreaks of frustration and conflict in the relationship illustrate the difficulties in managing the dysfunctional consequences of power imbalances. Research limitations/implications – While the findings are restricted to the Australian accountant–small business advisory relationship, they offer a basis for research into the effect of power on the relationship in other national contexts. Research which includes the views of managers of failed small businesses would also extend this work. Practical implications – The study’s focus on accountants’ experiences can assist practitioners endeavouring to develop advisory relationships with small business and designers of professional development programmes seeking to optimise the value of the advisory relationship. Originality/value – The paper extends the study of power to the under-researched yet important accountant–small business advisory area. Its findings are of interest to accountants and accounting policymakers who envisage a broadening of accountants’ small business advisory role.

Full textAbstract:
ABSTRACTIn 2015 the West Houston Center for Science & Engineering (WHC), Houston Community College, was awarded funding by the National Science Foundation (DMR) to develop a pilot materials science program, Research Experiences and Exploration in Materials Science (REEMS), focused on introducing materials science to aspiring science & engineering community college students. This multifaceted program provides an opportunity for students from a broad array of interests, backgrounds and ages to gain an appreciation for materials science with respect to their academic and career pursuits. Over the approximately four-year duration of the program, REEMS introduces materials science over the academic year through a voluntary seminar series, and, for a select group of students, participation in summer research experiences at collaborating universities. Academic year activities include conferences with the WHC-REEMS transfer advisor, seminars discussing an overview of materials science, the investigation of the roles of materials science in addressing pressing societal issues, and networking with graduate students, university upper division students, materials research faculty and professionals. This paper will provide an overview of the WHC – REEMS program synergies, impacts and partnership dynamics with participating universities: Rice University, the University of Houston, and the McGovern Medical School at the University of Texas Health Science Center-Houston.

Full textAbstract:
The issues of career planning and building up, employment and graduates’ adaptation remain relevant and require new approaches to solving the problems of professional identity and formation in the modern world of labour and occupations. The graduates have difficulties in searching for a suitable job in their degree field mostly due to the lack of work experience. On the other hand, young people have great potential. They are quick to study, mobile; able to adapt to new situations and sensible in their approach to labour supplies. The task of a career advisor is to help young people to professionally identify themselves and acquaint them with modern theories of career building and employer requirements. The percent of employed graduates is established on the basis of statistical research and data processing. These are the data obtained in the course of graduates’ career monitoring. The main method of collecting data to study graduates’ employment is the method of dynamic and comparative monitoring. The subject of the research is the data obtained in the course of monitoring analysis. The purpose of the paper is to introduce the experience in developing student job-hunting skills, business career development and management in Nizhnevartovsk State University. The author introduces a modern vision of professional identity process based on psychological and sociological theories. The paper is grounded on the graduate employment studies and provides recommendations, forms and methods of interaction with students to assist successful graduate employment in their degree field

Full textAbstract:
This thesis specifically examines the relationship between professional business advisor (PBA) knowledge and the knowledge transmission actions undertaken by such advisors when addressing the knowledge requirements of businesses, specifically Regional Australian small businesses. The thesis adopts a qualitative research approach to explore perceptions of individuals who provide advisory services to small businesses, within the context of Regional Australia. The analysis undertaken is a practical application of the critical realist research paradigm to explain how human agency, social structures, and mechanisms interact in the process of creating a knowledge transmission event by PBAs. The conceptual framework developed in this thesis brings together key concepts from scholarly research disciplines of knowledge management, information management, communications, services marketing and business advice. The conceptual framework reflects the research aims and provides the basis for the research methodology. The framework is of a unique critical realist research design that allows the study to progress through sequential world views. Each world view allows the continual broadening of the reality being studied, enabling more focused answers to the research questions posed. This study focuses on PBAs who service small businesses operating in four inner regional and two outer regional locations within the State of Victoria. Over the six regions, a total of 29 face-to-face interviews were conducted, along with one focus group in each region. The findings from this database, using the conceptual framework as a guide, identified a complex, heterogeneous, open environment in which PBA knowledge transmission occurs. This research process recognises PBAs as social structures with causal powers whose knowledge stock is the primary mechanism through which these powers are exercised to generate a knowledge transmission event. A significant conclusion emerges that PBA tacit (and not explicit) knowledge is a conditional mechanism which gate-keeps whether the PBA knowledge transmission event is enacted.Doctor of Philosophy

Full textAbstract:
Advice, defined as a recommendation for action in response to a problem, is a common form of interpersonal support and influence. Indeed, the advice we give and receive from others can be highly consequential, not only affecting us as recipients and advisors but also shaping outcomes for relationships, groups, and organizations. Some of those consequences are positive, as when advice promotes individual problem solving or enhances workgroup productivity. Yet advice can also hide ulterior motives, threaten identity, damage relationships, and promote inappropriate action. The Oxford Handbook of Advice provides a broad perspective on how advice succeeds and fails, systematically reviewing and synthesizing theory and research on advice from multiple disciplines, such as communication, psychology, applied linguistics, business, law, and medicine. Some chapters examine advice at different levels of analysis, focusing on advisor and recipient roles, advising interactions and relationships, and advice as a resource and connection in groups and networks. Other chapters address advice in particular types of personal relationships (e.g., romantic and family) and professional contexts (e.g., workplace, health, education, and therapy). Authors also consider cultural differences, advice online, and the ethics of advising. For scholars concerned with supportive communication, interpersonal influence, decision making, social networks, and related communication processes at work, at home, and in society at large, the Handbook offers historical perspective, contemporary theoretical framing, methodological recommendations, and directions for future research. The authors also emphasize practical application, offering clear, concise, and relevant “advice for advising” based on theory and research.
