Mujeres Y Artesanías: Mito Y Realidad, Jasleen Dhamija

Poverty, Gender, and Youth

Este número de SEEDS analiza las artesanías como medio de crear ingresos para las mujeres. En algunos casos constituyen fuente sólida de ganancia; también pueden servirles de nexo con su propia herencia cultural. En la mayoría de los casos, sin embargo, las artesanías hacen que las mujeres se dediquen a un tipo de ocupación que requiere una labor muy intensa, con la que se las puede explotar y que resulta en entradas mínimas por largas horas de trabajo. Las artesanías pueden servir de medio de incrementar los ingresos femeninos en ciertos lugares, pero sólo en las condiciones que se describen …

Les Femmes Et L'Artisanat: Mythe Et Réalité, Jasleen Dhamija

Poverty, Gender, and Youth

Ce rapport examine les travaux manuels et l'artisanat comme un moyen d'assurer un revenu aux femmes. Parfois ces métiers représentent pour elles une source importante d'argent et leur permettent également de rester en lien avec leur propre heritage culture. Dans la plupart des cas cependant, la production artisanale relègue les femmes dans un domaine où le travail est intense et exploiteur, n'offrant qu'un salaire dérisoire pour de longues heures de labeur. Les travaux manuels et l'artisanat peuvent être un moyen pour les femmes d'accroître leurs revenus dans certains environnements, mais seulement sous les conditions présentées dans le rapport, car ces …

Mapping Strategic Management Research, Howard Thomas

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

During the last two decades, in particular, there has developed a substantial body of literature in the fields of strategic management, strategic planning, corporate and business policy, and related topics. This literature owes much to the prior writings of Alfred Chandler [10] and the decades of case writing and research undertaken at Harvard Business School by many learned professors. Indeed, Harvard's tradition of leadership in this field dates from 1914 when it first introduced a course requirement for business policy into the business school program. The term strategic management is of relatively recent origin [49] and is currently the accepted …

Industry Self-Regulation: An Economic, Organizational, And Political Analysis, Lawrence J. Lad, Anil K. Gupta

Scholarship and Professional Work - Business

Researchers generally have viewed nonmarket regulation of firm behavior as synonymous with direct regulation by the government. This paper highlights industry self-regulation as an alternative form of nonmarket regulation that, depending on the context, may supplement or complement direct regulation by the government. Further, on the basis of exploratory economic, organizational, and political analysis, it advances, for possible future research, propositions relating to the existence, operation, and out-come of industry self-regulation.

An Experimental Investigation Of A New Priority Index For Jobs With Due Dates, Lewis A. Litteral, J. Frank Rudisill

Robins School of Business White Paper Series, 1980-2022

This paper describes an extension of the critical ratio procedure that is used to assign priorities to jobs that are waiting to be processed on a set of machines. The extended procedure is compared to the conventional procedure in a flow shop setting using a set of test problems. Several measures of schedule performance that are related to job due dates are considered.

Viability Of Ethanol Motor Fuel In Brazil: Cost-Benefit Considerations, Jonathan B. Wight

Robins School of Business White Paper Series, 1980-2022

The study assesses the viability of ethanol fuel considering both private and social costs and benefits. Ethanol costs are calculated for different production scales, locations, and government subsidies. The results show that without government financing subsidies, ethanol fuel would be privately economical (at May 1981 prices) only in Southeast distilleries of appropriate scale. Northeast distilleries are uneconomical even with a shadow wage for labor. Foreign exchange savings from ethanol production are calculated, with the fining that relatively small savings are achieved. However, Brazil gains greater flexibility in sugar export earnings by being able to alter the production mix of ethanol …

Risk Taker, Caretaker, Or Undertaker: Which Are You?, Albert F. Varner

WCBT Faculty Publications

Learn to rate your own decision-making abilities and those of others in your organization.

Nonprofit managers must encourage, nurture, and promote decision making by subordinate level managers. They must avoid creating circumstances which discourage decisions being made. Objective and informed management recognizes that its primary responsibility is to create an environment which enables subordinates to make better decisions and to take an acceptable amount of risk.

A Long-Range Planning Model For Branch Bank Development, Sedrak Chitariance

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

This dissertation concerns itself with development of a long-range planning model to assist commercial banks and other financial institutions in their efforts to expand or contract their retail outlet networks. A bank retail outlet is defined as either a full-service branch or an Automated Teller Machine (ATM). Market share equations have been developed for different types of retail deposits (services) in terms of the number of retail outlets present within a given geographical area, called a market. These market share equations are then incorporated into a mathematical optimization framework. Criterion function in the mathematical model to be maximized is the …

A Multi-Item Multi-Component Two Echelon Model For Reusable Items In A Health Care Setting, Boudjelal Boukaabar

Research Reports from the Department of Operations

Inventory systems in a health care setting include a multitude of items that are finitely reusable. Examples of such items are linen, glassware, silverware, patient gowns, towels, and, in general, all surgical implements that can be sterilized. Because the economic life of such items is rather long, they represent an investment which cannot be used elsewhere. In addition, the processing of these items might be very costly due to the required investment in the processing equipment and its maintenance, the labor and energy costs, and the high interest cost. As these costs have skyrocketed during the '70s, the cost of …
