Abstract:

The global economic operating system of capitalism is incongruent with the values required to sustain life on a planet with a growing population and finite resources. Living in marginalized communities the impoverished are the most negatively affected by the current system, as they are the most vulnerable to the vicissitudes of climate change, resource extraction, labor exploitation and wealth concentration. Our way of life needs to be reimagined to align with principles that are in accordance with the ecological worldview. Aspects of an effective strategy rooted in the ecological worldview -

Abstract:

The innovation race, with ever-shortening product lifecycles and escalating innovation costs, has made alliances for innovation a central competitive strategy at many firms. Alliances provide access to a broader pool of knowledge that would be difficult to develop inside the firm, as well as a way of sharing risks. However, many innovation-based alliances fail. The literature argues that one important reason for this is the tension created by the contradictory recommendations of alliance management, whereby fixed contracts are stressed, and the recommendations for the innovation management of

Abstract:

This thesis aims to provide clarity on which factors within an organization positively affect its performance in terms of innovation. Innovation is seen as a critical component of a company’s strategy in achieving market differentiation and profitability, yet for many, it remains a frustrating pursuit. This study aims to empirically model the relationship between a firm’s investment in innovation and the effect of this investment on its performance. The method used is Structural Equation Modeling with data gathered from our online survey of 128 respondents from firms within the EU. This wo

Abstract:

Passenger safety within vehicles is a priority for automotive companies in order to meet both the regulations and customer expectations. The safety critical materials, those used for absorbing energy during a crash, are simulated with FEA in order to design and improve components and to reduce the requirement for physical testing, which in turn saves on development time and cost. The simulation capabilities of Jaguar Land Rover were identified as lacking in accuracy for energy absorbing materials.

Abstract:

There seems to be a widespread consensus in academic and policy circles that the promotion of current economic strongholds and specialisations is no longer sufficient in order to ensure the long-term competitiveness of regions. New policy concepts such as smart specialisation emphasize the need to break with past practices and design and implement innovation strategies that boost regional structural change, i.e. policies that support regional economies to renew their industrial base by diversifying into new but related economic fields or creating entirely new sectors.

Acceptance of information technology (IT) has remained a topic of interest for a last few decades. Several theories, specifically over the conceptualisation of the technology acceptance model (TAM) have emerged and they have been applied in different contexts to investigate new insights into the acceptance behaviour at individual and organisational levels. However, despite TAM’s maturity and validity in different contexts, very little published literature strives to extend its capability to predict individuals’ acceptance behaviour about an online banking information system (OBIS).

Firms are facing great challenges in the rapidly changing economy of today's world. Therefore, firms have begun searching for new means and ways to innovate in order to stay alive, compete and grow. However, many firms have yet to discover that their embedded network of relations and structures can play a crucial role in their innovation outcomes. As a result, there is growing consensus among innovation scholars that networking and inter-firm collaboration are key strategies in stimulating innovation within firms. This has resulted in a growing body of literature focused on studying the link b

Corporate Communication Management (CCM) is an important concept within the communication and marketing discipline.

Although corporate communication received great attention from scholars and the business community, its complex concepts are still unclear. Furthermore, many scholars believe there are influences of corporate culture, ICT diffusion innovations and corporate leadership on corporate communication and its impact to organisational perfor

Abstract:

Les changements économiques et sociaux des sociétés contemporaines s’appuient sur un fait démographique inéluctable et sur un paradigme économique particulier : le vieillissement de la population et l’importance de l’innovation comme source de croissance économique. L’évolution du paradigme économique de l’innovation a évolué passant de la figure centrale des grandes firmes au développement de l’entrepreneuriat à un échelon régional à partir des années 1970. Parallèlement à cela, les politiques publiques de l’accompagnement du grand âge initialement mises en place au cours du XXème siècle dans

Abstract:

L’industrie hélicoptériste est une industrie de haute technologie caractérisée essentiellement par la taille réduite de son marché, le faible nombre de concurrents, la fréquence des situations monopolistiques établies par les fournisseurs, une réglementation exigeante et des contraintes technologiques spécifiques de conception. Ses projets ont souvent connu ces dernières années des dérives temporelles et budgétaires. Le développement des nouvelles technologies d’informations, les avancées des connaissances aérodynamiques et les nouveaux matériaux la propulse actuellement à un carrefour industr

Abstract:

This thesis is an analysis of technology diffusion and the long-run institutional impact of the nature of that diffusion. It examines how a growing commercial trading relationship with Lancashire-based millwrights enabled textile industrialisation in late 19th century Bombay, and reflects upon the evolving character of Indian manufacturing and organisational behaviour within and beyond the colonial context, and into 21st century industrial strategy. Drawing upon primary archival material from sources in Britain and India (including historical company records, trade association records, transac

Abstract:

The modern manufacturing marketplace is extremely complex and constantly changing. Career professionals often seek job placement, career advancement, and continuing education through professional certifications. Professional certifications in the United States (U.S.) have been evolving since 1911. In the 1950s, engineering groups established professional certifications and licenses. In the 1980s, administration of accreditation of certification programs proliferated, and by the 1990s, many government and professional organizations sought to standardize procedures for the industry.

Abstract:

This dissertation deals with the economic change of the countries of late industrialization, comparing the Brazilian case to the South Korean in two periods of time. The first period is from the 1950s to the 1980s, in which both countries were technologically catching-up with the more developed countries, and a second period goes from the 1980s until the 2010 decade, when Brazil falling-behind technological, and South Korea teamed up with the developed countries and start to lead the technological development process. For this, a neoschumpeterian and structuralist theoretical framework wa

Abstract:

The study of venture idea characteristics and the contextual fit between venture ideas and individuals are key research goals in entrepreneurship (Davidsson, 2004). However, to date there has been limited scholarly attention given to these phenomena. Accordingly, this study aims to help fill the gap by investigating the importance of novelty and relatedness of venture ideas in entrepreneurial firms. On the premise that new venture creation is a process and that research should be focused on the early stages of the venturing process, this study primarily focuses its attention on examining ho
