Investigations Into Availability And Quality Of Urban Tourism Consumer Behaviour Information: Tourist Information Availability And Use For Dublin's Tourism Stakeholder Organisations, David M.J. Nunan

Masters

The availability of timely urban tourist information is increasingly important for useful learning experiences among all tourism stakeholders. National or regional tourism visitor surveys are usually either too general to be of much use, if any, to the individual city tourism stakeholder or too specific to be of much use to the city destination manager. A homogeneous city survey model has recently been made available for European city tourism organisations. A balance needs to be struck between the homogeneous information needs of the city tourism manager and the more specific needs of the individual local urban tourism sectors. This thesis …

The Whole Student, Susan R. Madsen

Marketing and Strategy Faculty Publications

As an educator, I am interested in facilitating the learning and growth of the “whole” student. I approach my students with an optimistic outlook, assuming they have the potential to become whatever they choose and have the motivation and capacity to do so. With this in mind, I design my courses to address the content of the particular course and the competencies that are important for success in the workplace, community, and family domains. For example, in one core business course (Human Resource Management), students learn about employment law, staffing, compensation, training, retention, employee motivation, change, and more. Yet, all …

Training And Development In Public Health: An Adult Learning Guide For Public Health Professionals, Susan R. Madsen

Marketing and Strategy Faculty Publications

As a public health professional, have you ever been asked to...

• Present an idea or concept at a meeting?
• Show a co-worker how to complete a task?
• Present at a conference?
• Develop directions or instructions for a procedure?

Many of us in the category of "reluctant trainer."

A common sentiment may be that, "I will train others because I was asked to, but I'd rather be at the dentist." If a person is reluctant to train, it will become evident to the trainee. Knowledge and practice of good training techniques is key to shedding a reluctant outlook on training. This …

Company Characteristics And Occupational Health And Safety Disclosures: A Quantitative Review Of Australian Annual Reports, Matthew V. Tilling

Business Conference Papers

This paper uses binary logistic regression to develop two models of firms’ Occupational Health and Safety disclosures, one based on disclosure / non-disclosure, the other based on above / below the median levels of disclosure. Industry and auditor are found to be important components of both models, whilst operating revenue contributes to the former and company age to the latter. These findings support to some extent previous studies into Corporate Social and Environmental Disclosure, but also identify new factors that need to be further investigated. The paper contributes to our current understanding of Corporate Social Disclosure through its focus on …

Communication At The Edge: Voluntary Social And Environmental Reporting In The Annual Report Of A Legitimacy Threatened Corporation, Matthew V. Tilling

Business Conference Papers

This paper examines the voluntary social and environmental disclosures made in the annual reports of Rothmans Ltd between the years of 1955 and 1999. The first part of the paper focuses on defining legitimacy theory as it has been used in accounting research and discusses the potential of a resource based approach to testing the theory. The study then considers legitimacy theory in light of the disclosures made by Rothmans. An initial qualitative analysis certainly provides examples of expected attempts to legitimatize the corporation given the threat posed by the smoking and health debate. Initial quantitative findings contradict those expected …

Knowledge Flows And Economic Development Through Microenterprise Collaboration In Third-Sector Communities, Raymond M. Jones, Roger J. Kashlak, Audra M. Jones

New England Journal of Entrepreneurship

"The U.N. once dealt only with governments. By now we know that peace and prosperity cannot be achieved without partnership involving governments, international organizations, the business community and civil society. In today’s world we depend on each other.” Kofi Annan, UN Secretary (1999).

As emphasized by Secretary Annan’s quote, the global community is increasingly concerned with economic development and promotion of democracies is focusing on developing programs to stimulate partnerships among three distinct sectors: government sector, civil society and private sector, including locally based and international entrepreneurs. The modern organization is becoming increasingly informed in its strategies and practices by …

No Mulligans: When Good Entrepreneurs Make Bad Decisions, Joseph E. Levangie

What lessons can be learned from these experiences? How can the entrepreneur (and investors) navigate around the potholes on the New Venture Highway? Read on.

Does The Adoption Of "Economic Value Added" Improve Corporate Performance?, Matthew Louis Bell

Inquiry: The University of Arkansas Undergraduate Research Journal

Determining how to properly measure corporate performance is one of the most important problems in contemporary corporate finance. Without a sound mechanism to evaluate managerial performance, a corporation's management has no adequate standard to be judged by. This can destroy the firm's value very quickly through poor managerial decisions. For this reason, managers need to be evaluated and compensated based on a performance measure that truly demonstrates the changes in a company's value. The interests of executives and shareholders do not always coincide, as can be seen through many of the current corporate scandals. Thus, it is almost universally argued …

The Relationship Between Organizational Ethical Culture And The Ethical Behavior Of Employees: A Study Of Accounting And Finance Professionals In The Insurance Industry Of United States, Akwasi Ampofo, Bahaudin G. Mujtaba, Frank J. Cavico, Laura Tindall

HCBE Faculty Articles

This study explores the relationship between organizational ethical culture and ethical behavior of accounting/finance professionals working in the insurance industry in the United States. Results of 100 respondents in five different insurance organizations suggest that there is a significant relationship between organizational ethical culture and ethical behavioral intentions given bad debt write off and insider trading ethical vignettes. This was consistent with prior research findings that written (formal) and unwritten (informal) organizational policies significantly affect employees' ethical decision-making (Sims and Keon, 2000 & 1997). Key (1999) also argued that organizational culture sends messages as to sanctioned and unsanctioned behavior.

Accounting Regimes And Fiscal Rules, Paul Boothe

Business Publications

Boothe contributes to the literature that focuses on the impact of budgetary institutions on fiscal outcomes by examining the interaction between accounting regimes and fiscal rules. The paper builds and calibrates a model through which cash and accrual accounting regimes are compared and their interaction with different fiscal rules is analysed. The paper does not take position on the suitability of cash versus accrual regimes. It rather looks for the circumstances under which governments may choose to move from an accounting system to the other. The author stresses that rules which discourage deficit financing are harder to comply with under …

Schooling, Capital Constraints And Entrepreneurial Performance, Simon Parker, Mirjam Van Praag

Business Publications

To what extent is the performance of a small business venture, once started, affected by capital constraints at the time of inception and by the business founder’s investment in human capital? We attempt to answer this question taking into account the potential endogeneity of human and financial capital, and also possible interdependence between these variables. A theoretical model is developed which generates predictions about the nature and directions of the interdependencies. Using a rich data set on Dutch entrepreneurs in 1995, we obtain findings that are broadly consistent with the theoretical model. Instrumental variable estimates indicate that a 1 percentage …
