Much research argues the importance of supporting social interactions in teams and communities. The field of mobile sensing alone offers significant advances in recording and understanding human and group behaviours. However, little is known about behavioural changes as a consequence of in-group phenomena. One prominent example is intra-group conflict, which naturally arises between diverse groups of people. We demonstrate the feasibility of our approach to extract mobility patterns of individual's group behaviours sensed from a WiFi indoor localisation system and explore how these patterns relate to their team processes. 62 students enrolled in a project-intensive module, Software Engineering, were tracked …

We explore how mobility patterns relate to team processes and states. 39 students in project teams were tracked over 82 days, yielding up to 8 million records. Preliminary analysis of this big dataset and interview data revealed differences in the mobility patterns of individuals based on their experience of conflict.

Knowledge Cluster Development Through Connectivity: Examples From Southeast Asia, Hans-Dieter Evers, Thomas Menkhoff

Whereas since the 1990s national and regional planners saw the creation of knowledge clusters as a panacea for gaining a competitive advantage to propel a region or country into a higher stage of industrial development, recent research suggests that connectivity (e.g. through broadband penetration or joint research connections with collaborators elsewhere) is one of the enablers for socio-economic development. This paper will draw on the results of studies on knowledge clusters in Southeast Asian countries (Malaysia, Brunei, Singapore) as well as the relevant current literature to ask the question, whether knowledge clusters really contribute to regional development and if yes, …
Capstone Course On Facilitating Business Brainstorming In A Global Workplace, Edison Jun Hao Lim, Benjamin Gan
Capstone Course On Facilitating Business Brainstorming In A Global Workplace, Edison Jun Hao Lim, Benjamin Gan
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
This paper describes our capstone team’s experience toward building a IT system for business brainstorming at work. The Canvas project aims to facilitate the Business Model Canvas exercise between employees at NEC Corporation. Traditional brainstorming meetings require employees to be in the same location, are hard to organize and are hard to archive. Our team, Rokoo, developed a web application that resolves these challenges by allowing global employees to brainstorm together on the same platform.

Trust reciprocity, a special form of link reciprocity, exists in many networks of trust among users. In this paper, we seek to determine the extent to which reciprocity exists in a trust network and develop quantitative models for measuring reciprocity and reciprocity related behaviors. We identify several reciprocity behaviors and their respective measures. These behavior measures can be employed for predicting if a trustee will return trust to her trustor given that the latter initiates a trust link earlier. We develop for this reciprocal trust prediction task a number of ranking method and classification methods, and evaluated them on an …

Since structured products are a major profit engine on the trading floor of most banks, this demand represents a strong pull factor for quants from competing institutions. There is nothing much that most financial institutions can do about this pull factor, except to pull them back in with offers they can’t refuse.

Differentiating Knowledge Processes In Organisational Learning: A Case Of ‘Two Solitudes’, Siu Loon Hoe, Steven L. Mcshane
Differentiating Knowledge Processes In Organisational Learning: A Case Of ‘Two Solitudes’, Siu Loon Hoe, Steven L. Mcshane
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The fields of organizational behaviour (OB)/strategy and marketing have taken different paths over the past two decades to understanding organisational learning. OB/strategy has been pre-occupied with theory development and case study illustrations, whereas marketing research has taken a highly quantitative path. Although relying on essentially the same foundation theory, these two solitudes have had minimal cross-fertilisation. Furthermore, both fields tend to blur or usually ignore the distinction between structural and informal knowledge processes. The marketing literature, in particular, relies on the MARKOR scale, which measures structural knowledge processes. Informal knowledge acquisition and dissemination processes are almost completely ignored. The purpose …

Managers should make use of the underground rumour mill to understand employee concerns. EMPLOYEES seek insights into where their organisation is heading. And they should, because what their organisation does has a direct impact on their well- being.

Specialisation is good. It lets us go deep into a specific field of endeavour, but at the expense of a broad overview of everything.

STRESS is as much a part of our cor- porate careers as death is a fact of life. Still, it is best to keep the two (career and death) separate. This message is lost on some hardworking souls here who literally work themselves to death.

Staff retention is a major problem in the job market here. Our economy is doing well; our job market is red hot. As a result, new job offers are becoming more irresistible. At some stage, someone you work closely with — be it your staff, your boss or a fellow team member — is going to hand in that dreaded letter to the human resource (HR) department. Handling resignations with tact and grace is no longer merely a desirable quality, but an essential corporate skill today.
