Knowledge Accumulation And Dissemination In Mnes: A Practice-Based Framework, Stephen Tallman, Aya S. Chacar

Much has been written on the importance of knowledge accumulation and transfer within the network firm but two questions remain. First, what are the specifics of this process, particularly for high tacit content knowledge? Second, how can firms create a sustainable competitive advantage from knowledge acquired from outside the firm? We address the first question by proposing that the mechanisms of external knowledge capture and internal knowledge transfer can best be understood and studied not at the level of networked subsidiary firms, but at the micro-organizational level of Communities of Practice (CoPs). We then offer a model of the dynamics …

The Strategic Decision-Making Process Of The Board And Its Impact On Decision Outcomes,

The Strategic Decision-Making Process Of The Board And Its Impact On Decision Outcomes, Mark T. Engle
Student Scholarship
If association boards of directors are to favorably impact decision outcomes for their organizations, they must make high-quality, consequential decisions. Through a quantitative study, the researchers examined how associations and their boards make high-quality strategic decisions. This paper argues that (a) boards are most fundamentally decision-making bodies, and (b) boards struggle with a challenging paradox when deliberating major issues: vigorously and properly debating differing perspectives on a consequential issue engenders tensions that can easily lead to dysfunctional interactions among decision makers. Decision-making constructs that relate to this paradox are identified and examined for their applicability to the nonprofit context. Gathering …

Critical Factors Affecting Enterprise Resource Planning Implementation Success., Shahin Dezdar
Student Works (2010-2019)
Implementing an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system in a company can bring many benefits. However, ERP implementations have been high spending projects with low success rates. International ERP vendors are now trying to extend their market to companies in developing countries. However, little research has been conducted on ERP implementation in developing countries. So, understanding the critical success factors (CSFs) involved in ERP implementation would be of benefit to implementing companies and ERP software vendors. Thus, this research developed and empirically tested a model for ERP implementation success in the context of a developing country, namely Iran. A survey questionnaire …

Student Works (2010-2019)
Studies on the effects of globalisation are extensive. However, the existing literature concerning the effects of globalisation on the film production industry has been largely the interest of scholars from cultural studies, media and/or communications fields of study. Much of their concerns pertain to the spread of cultural homogeneity and the effects of culture, particularly that of film consumption, on citizens or local audiences. Although cultural industries have become one of the most dynamic emerging sectors in world trade studies, many developing countries have not given fair attention to their film industries due to the priority given to other sectors. …

Exploring The Fundamental Paradox Of Being An Organizational Leader, Michael E. Cafferky
Faculty Works
This paper explores a fundamental, universally experienced leadership tension of caring for the needs of the individual and caring for the needs of the organization. The paper draws a distinction between the three concepts of paradox, dilemma and tradeoff. It describes the nature of the individual-community tension. It reviews the tension from the perspective of management scholarship and themes found in Biblical theology. The exploration reviews some of the issues that Christian leaders face as they attempt to manage this tension. It concludes by offering implications for leadership education.
