Broker Vs. Advisor, Steven D. Dolvin Jul 2013

Broker Vs. Advisor, Steven D. Dolvin

All Chapters

Over the past decade, more retail investment professionals have transitioned away from a pure broker relationship to a more advisory role. This switch is potentially good for both sides, as it reduces the incentive to churn (i.e., excessively trade) an account simply to generate commissions, while also providing a more stable revenue for the advisor.

We objectively examined the course evaluations from students who completed their summer internships within a recreation and leisure studies program. Student responses (n = 29) to the 14 self-appraisal items in their course evaluation were the central focus of data analysis. Our primary research question was, “In what KSA [knowledge, skills, attitudes] areas …

An Exploratory Study Of Wellness Travel: Differences Between U.S. And Non-U.S. Travelers, Rebecca Boulay, Nancy M. Hritz, Candace Ashton

Journal of Tourism Insights

Wellness tourism has become an increasingly popular trend as many resorts and destinations now offer these activities and amenities. Given that the “wellness travel” term is relatively new for U.S. travelers, it is unknown how they may differ in their wellness and travel choices from non U.S. travelers. Convenience samples of tourists in the US and Europe were surveyed about their differences in wellness travel motivations and perceived wellness. T-tests revealed significant differences. U.S. travelers were more likely to want to participate in outdoor activities such as hiking and camping when traveling compared to non U.S. travelers. Non U.S. travelers …

Recommended Practices For New Corporate Learning Leaders, David Lamb Jul 2013

Recommended Practices For New Corporate Learning Leaders, David Lamb

Journal of Executive Education

For this article I have focused on leaders who are about to assume responsibility for the Learning/Talent Development function of medium to large companies. Although there are many additional areas that must be effectively addressed, the following are fundamental practices that I have found to be critical to success. When assuming the top role, it’s difficult to balance the strategic and tactical demands of the job. My advice: err on the side of strategy development. Having a well thought out plan is necessary for success. Good plans focus on “what,” “when,” and “cost/benefits.” It’s important to document what will be …

Executive Education: Can It Be Too Good?, James C. Lockhart Jul 2013

Executive Education: Can It Be Too Good?, James C. Lockhart

Journal of Executive Education

A successful business school must serve two communities: the research community on one hand; and the business community on the other. However, despite the spectacular growth of business education over the last four or five decades, there has been growing criticism of the relevance of much business school activity: The academic-practitioner divide has emerged and largely refuses to close. To bridge the gap b-schools must serve both communities concurrently. Executive education is identified as being a critical strategy in the repertoire of b-school deans through which to do so. The aim of this paper is to discuss the construct of …
