A Community Of Practice For Chinese Ngos, Reza Hasmath, Jennifer Yj Hsu
A Community Of Practice For Chinese Ngos, Reza Hasmath, Jennifer Yj Hsu
Reza Hasmath
A community of practice represents an important resource for the sharing of sector-specific knowledge. It is a mechanism for Chinese NGOs to learn from each other, and collaborate. Drawing upon original data elicited from over 100 NGOs, this article examines the organizational capacity for Chinese NGOs to cultivate a mature community of practice. We find that there are inherent headwinds that Chinese NGOs will have to navigate to accomplish this goal. On the one hand, the majority of NGOs in our sample do not see themselves as part of a community of experts, which presents a huge challenge for the …
Do New Competitors, New Customers, New Suppliers, ... Sustain, Destroy Or Create Competitive Advantage?, Michael D. Ryall, Glenn Macdonald
Do New Competitors, New Customers, New Suppliers, ... Sustain, Destroy Or Create Competitive Advantage?, Michael D. Ryall, Glenn Macdonald
Michael D Ryall
We examine the effect of entry on the value appropriated by an incumbent. By ``entrant’’ we mean at any level of the value chain — from raw material suppliers to buyers. Our specific concern is whether competition guarantees the incumbent some positive minimum level of profit. We demonstrate that the net effect of entry is subtle — even when the entrant is a perfect imitator. On the one hand, entry typically results in greater value creation. This tends to soften competition and, thereby, lower the incumbent’s minimum level of appropriation. At the same time, however, entry also creates new competitive …
Ceo Compensation And Risk-Taking At Financial Firms: Evidence From U.S. Federal Loan Assistance, Amar Gande, Swami Kalpathy
Ceo Compensation And Risk-Taking At Financial Firms: Evidence From U.S. Federal Loan Assistance, Amar Gande, Swami Kalpathy
Amar Gande
We examine whether risk-taking among the largest financial firms in the U.S. is related to CEO equity incentives before the 2008 financial crisis. Using data on U.S. Federal Reserve emergency loans provided to these firms, we find that the amount of emergency loans and total days the loans are outstanding are increasing in pre-crisis CEO risk-taking incentives – “vega”. Our results are robust to accounting for endogeneity in CEO equity incentives and selection of financial firms into emergency loan programs. We also rule out the possibility that our results are driven by a bank’s funding base, bank complexity, CEO overconfidence, …
Competitive Intensity And Its Two-Sided Effect On The Boundaries Of Firm Performance, Joao Montez, Francisco Ruiz-Aliseda, Michael D. Ryall
Competitive Intensity And Its Two-Sided Effect On The Boundaries Of Firm Performance, Joao Montez, Francisco Ruiz-Aliseda, Michael D. Ryall
Michael D Ryall
The new perspective emerging from strategy's value-capture stream is that the effects of competition are two-fold: competition for an agent bounds its performance from below, while that for its transaction partners bounds from above. Thus, assessing the intensity of competition on either side is essential to understanding firm performance. Yet, the literature provides no formal notion of "competitive intensity" with which to make such assessments. Rather, some authors use added value as their central analytic concept, others the core. Added value is simple, but misses the crucial, for-an-agent side of competition. The core is theoretically complete, but difficult to interpret …

Suppliers, Investors, And Equity Market Liberalizations, Martin Strieborny
Suppliers, Investors, And Equity Market Liberalizations, Martin Strieborny
Martin Strieborny
Allowing foreign investors to acquire equity stakes in domestic firms stimulates the real economy by promoting frictionless relationships between buyers and suppliers of intermediate goods. I combine insights from research on financial liberalization and relationship-specific investment to derive this hypothesis and then use a difference-in-difference empirical framework to test it. Results from panel-data and event-study estimations confirm that equity market liberalizations boost output growth particularly in suppliers-dependent industries that require a high share of specialized inputs in their production process. Financial openness can thus facilitate smooth interactions between firms and an important corporate stakeholder - suppliers of crucial production inputs.
Serious Gamification: On The Redesign Of A Popular Paradox, Steffen Roth
Serious Gamification: On The Redesign Of A Popular Paradox, Steffen Roth
Dr. Steffen Roth
We challenge the idea of the paradoxical nature of the concept serious games and ask how researchers and designers need to conceive of serious games so that they at all appear paradoxical. To develop and answer this question, we draw on a theory–method that considers all forms of observation as paradoxical. We then use the tetralemma, a structure from traditional Indian logics, to resolve the paradox of serious games into this larger paradox of observation. Consequently, serious games may only be consid- ered a paradox if we presume realities and define games as deviations therefrom. The increasing gamification of society, …

Contract Structure For Joint Production: Risk And Ambiguity Under Compensatory Damages, Michael D. Ryall, Rachelle C. Sampson
Contract Structure For Joint Production: Risk And Ambiguity Under Compensatory Damages, Michael D. Ryall, Rachelle C. Sampson
Michael D Ryall
We develop a model in which the parties to a joint production project have a choice of specifying contractual performance in terms of actions or deliverables. Penalties for noncompliance are not specified; rather, they are left to the courts under the legal doctrine of compensatory damages. We analyze three scenarios of increasing uncertainty: Full Knowledge - where implications of partner actions are known; Risk - where implications can be probabilistically quantified; and, Ambiguity - where implications cannot be so quantified. Under Full Knowledge, action requirements dominate: they always induce the maximum economic value. This dominance vanishes in the Risk scenario. …

Complexity Theory For A New Managerial Paradigm: A Research Framework, Gandolfo Dominici, Vasja Roblek
Complexity Theory For A New Managerial Paradigm: A Research Framework, Gandolfo Dominici, Vasja Roblek
Vasja Roblek
In this work, we have outlined a research framework for a new management paradigm, attempting trying to link the main concepts of complexity theory, change management, knowledge management, sustainable development and, cybernetics. We discussed the transition from the industrial era to the post industrial age. In the development process, nothing is fixed in advance; we can say that it is opportunistic, and adapts to the challenges of the environment, as well as to their effects for and within organizations and society. We saw how the processes of organizational change have occurred as a result of the move to adapt to …
Private Politics Daily: What Makes Firms The Target Of Internet/Media Criticism? An Empirical Investigation Of Firm, Industry And Institutional Factors, Dominik Breitinger, Jean-Philippe Bonardi
Private Politics Daily: What Makes Firms The Target Of Internet/Media Criticism? An Empirical Investigation Of Firm, Industry And Institutional Factors, Dominik Breitinger, Jean-Philippe Bonardi
Jean-Philippe Bonardi
Private politics refers to situations in which activists or NGOs try to push firms to conform to social standards (regarding, for instance, human rights and environmental protection) without public policy intervention. The existing literature on private politics has focused on large campaigns such as consumer boycotts, and looked at the impact of those boycotts on firms’ financial performance and on the likelihood that firms comply with activist demands. Even though these large campaigns are important, focusing on them leads to neglecting the fact that a large portion of the time and resources that activists consecrate to private politics is used …

Covered Interest Rate Parity: The Usd And Cny, Kimberly D. Scott
Covered Interest Rate Parity: The Usd And Cny, Kimberly D. Scott
Kimberly D Scott
One of many tests of international finance is a test termed Covered Interest Rate Parity (CIRP). This theorem posits that exchange rate forward premiums (discounts) are offset by the respective interest rate differential between two currencies (Bhargava, Dania, & Malhotra, 2011). To briefly describe another theorem of interest rate parity is the Uncovered Interest Rate Parity (UIRP). This theorem posits that a return on an uncovered foreign currency deposit should be equal to the return on a similar domestic deposit despite the national market the foreign deposit is located.
A Historical Reading Of China’S Foreign Exchange Reform And 1993 Currency Devaluation, Era Qian
A Historical Reading Of China’S Foreign Exchange Reform And 1993 Currency Devaluation, Era Qian
McDonough Research Journal
This paper aims at assessing China’s foreign exchange reform and analyzing the driving factors behind its 1993 currency devaluation. It focuses on the sequencing of reforming efforts and clarifies the different concepts of currency convertibility. It also discussed the special circumstances that led to reform at the time. Our research results suggest that China’s economic progress and policy orientation had drawn a clear roadmap for its reforming effort. Meanwhile, its existing swap center network, export subsidy elimination process, domestic inflation and entry to GATT made 1993 a critical timing to unite its dual exchange rate. China’s need for capital inflow …
Chinese Approach To Exchange Rates And Impact On Trade, Kimberly D. Scott
Chinese Approach To Exchange Rates And Impact On Trade, Kimberly D. Scott
Kimberly D Scott
The United States and China have embarked on considerable deliberation in the United States trade and the value of the Chinese currency among academics and politicians alike. Over the years, research on the two topics has consistently addressed the subject by investigating the equilibrium real exchange rate between the yuan (CNY) and the dollar (USD), with results exposing the undervaluation in the yuan since the 1990’s.
Cny & Usd: Foreign Exchange Rates, Kimberly D. Scott
Cny & Usd: Foreign Exchange Rates, Kimberly D. Scott
Kimberly D Scott
A forward rate is related to a spot rate that is set to take place in the future (Bekaert & Hodrick, 2012). Interestingly, one issue that can be challenging when performing transactions is not knowing what the rate will yield in the future versus at present. Due to market pressures or even policy decisions, either a devaluation or revaluation of domestic currency to foreign currencies can transpire.

House Of Quality (Hoq) Regarding Truck Drivers Requests, Sajjad Khaksari
SAJJAD KHAKSARI
"Quality Engineering & Italian Transport Companies" represents a preliminarily attempt to benefit from Quality Engineering methods for analyzing some parts of the real and hidden worlds of some Italian family-owned transport companies. It tries to highlight some things that normally remain neglected regarding the hidden internal workings of some Italian transport companies. In addition, this paper might be interesting for whoever wants to know more about this period in which some Italian family-run transport companies are facing the challenge of a future balancing modernism and traditionalism in their supply chain management (SCM).
Chinese Yuan And The American Dollar, Kimberly D. Scott
Chinese Yuan And The American Dollar, Kimberly D. Scott
Kimberly D Scott
The economic relationship between China and the United States has been a hit and miss discussion over the years. One question, in particular, has stimulated more than speculation, but empirical research of whether we know that China's currency is undervalued is certainly a trigger to perform further research.
Enterprise Resource Planning Ii – A Review Of Critical Success Factors, Andrew Laurence Norton
Enterprise Resource Planning Ii – A Review Of Critical Success Factors, Andrew Laurence Norton
Andrew Laurence Norton
Delivering benefits from enterprise resource planning (ERP) II is challenging and the current research investigates the allocation of resources contributing towards benefits realisation. A literature review has been undertaken based on critical success factor (CSF) analysis. This research has revealed that ERP CSF change over time and that only some traditional ERP CSF are used in ERP II, as some are unnecessary whilst others are detrimental. In addition, ERP II specific CSF are also required to address extended enterprise opportunities. The use of ranked CSF is proving to be ineffective and ERP II CSF must be phased-in during the implementation …
China's Outward Foreign Direct Investment And International Investment Law, Karl P. Sauvant, Michael D. Nolan
China's Outward Foreign Direct Investment And International Investment Law, Karl P. Sauvant, Michael D. Nolan
Karl P. Sauvant
As China’s outward foreign direct investment (FDI) has grown, its approach to international investment agreements (IIAs) has changed. China is now one of the world’s most important outward investors, with Chinese FDI facing widespread criticism. The challenge for China is to adapt to this new configuration of interests stemming from these developments, both in terms of its national policies and the contents of its IIAs. In so doing, it is likely to influence, perhaps significantly, the further evolution of international investment law. This article deals briefly with the salient features of China’s outward FDI and the policies that support it; …

Perspectives Of Entrepreneurship And Its Impact On Stakeholders’ Co-Creation, Ridhi Arora Research Scholar
Ridhi Arora
In the past decade, the topic of entrepreneurship has undergone a lot of scholarly examination by academics and management practitioners (Naudé, 2013). Entrepreneurship aims to bring about the cohesive integration of social, economic, institutional, and cultural environments, both at the individual level and the group level. The entrepreneurship concept has been built on the strong historical roots that have led to advancements in entrepreneurial research and its related areas. This chapter provides coverage of the various theoretical perspectives underlying the origin and evolution of entrepreneurship. As the concept of entrepreneurship represents a “multifaceted phenomenon” (Toma et al., 2014), I will …

Success And Collaboration, Diane Wright
Success And Collaboration, Diane Wright
Diane Wright
Why Collaboration Leads to Success. According to Merriam-Webster.com, “Success is currently in the top 1% of lookups and is the 152nd most popular word on Merriam-Webster.com.” Clearly, this is a subject of interest to many. Somethings can be accomplished with minimal assistance, however; collaboration and cooperation leads to greater success. Working with others to produce or create something may be challenging. Yet, the rewards often far outweigh the challenges.
Here are 3 benefits I have received from collaborative efforts: 1- Build Relationships For example, while speaking with an executive in an unrelated field, we realized the opportunity that we had …

Defining Your Own Sustainable Future, Jacob Johnsen
Jacob Johnsen, MSc
How do you create – and maintain – an attractive service portfolio, and how to compete in a shifting environment? In our changing world, survival is not a question of size, speed or coverage. You must be adaptive. Posts can find out where to adapt, by examining the changes in customer behaviour, changing demands and technological achievements. Volumes are shifting from letters to packets, and so far, courier companies have taken market share from posts. Jacob Johnsen looks at the current changes and gives some guidelines on how to set up pointers for an ever-changing direction.
