The purpose of this book is to improve our understanding of the entrepreneurial market creation process by investigating the link between entrepreneurship and market creation and ultimately fill the gap in literature concerning this phenomenon. In order to do so, the ethnographic case study of LoudSauce is presented and analyzed. LoudSauce is an online doing-good startup based in San Francisco, California. As part of the analysis, the G&S model is developed, which draws from both existing literature and empirical observations. The aim is to codify the knowledge gained from LoudSauce, in a compact way so that it can be compared to other cases and used for further research. Findings indicate that there are two main forces acting as catalysts during the entrepreneurial market creation process: vision and serendipity. They strongly influence each other and the process as a whole. Additionally, two types of external factors have been identified: human and intellectual factors. The outcomes of the process in the G&S model can lay the foundations of a brand new market. ····· 1036119262

This is because EQ components are useful in assisting employees with decision-making in areas like teamwork, inclusion, productivity, and communication. Goleman identified the five `domains` of EQ as: Knowing your emotions. Managing your own emotions. Motivating yourself. Recognising and understanding other people`s emotions. Managing relationships, ie., managing the emotions of others. Islam is not just a personal faith and devotion, but a comprehensive, intelligent and practical life system.

This dissertation explains what, why and how to succeed when an organization wants to `go green`. We must accept that a company or an organization can do good and do well at the same time. And when environmental or social efforts fail to generate profits, it`s because profits were the true or only objective - not doing good. But a benign purpose and a truly felt management commitment to this can and will create increased profits! Excellence in business management has always required something extraordinary, yet this is often forgotten in the daily work. Though obviously an early work in CSR, this book is important because it reminds us that a corporation`s search for ways to demonstrate social responsibility must start at the top as a genuine wish to make a difference.

They have to produce quality products at competitive prices with unpredictable demand and has to quickly respond to risks as well as opportunities. All these require an efficient supply chain and a well-designed distribution system. Information Technology is becoming a critical enabler of an efficient supply chain management system, which can help in sharing and utilizing the information efficiently. Thus, there is a need to study the significance of available information within supply chain in decision-making process. We have studied the impact of electronic linkage between supply chain partners on the performance of distribution systems through case studies of two firms. These firms have implemented Web-applications for performing some business operations and are in the process to automate few more operations. These case studies have helped us to formulate models for optimal replenishment decisions. A multi-product, multi-constraint single-period distribution model has been formulated to solve a problem. This problem being NP-hard, a multi-stage heuristic method has been developed to solve the model. ····· 1036119202

The study employs a qualitative study approach that collects and employs the analysis of qualitative data. Multiple sources of data collection methods were used to enable data triangulation at the data analysis stage, thereby increasing the quality of the study. At present, although the film production industry does not play a significant role in the development of the country, the government s efforts to spur its growth are quite visible. This study illustrates the possibility, and even the necessity, for the film production industry to play an important role in the development of developing countries economies. Interestingly, the globalisation of the film industry has created new avenues for the industry to develop and, ultimately, potentially contribute to the economy in terms of income generation and employment creation. The findings of this study show that globalisation alone cannot explain certain phenomena but are mediated by factors internal to the industry. ····· 1036119176

Some auexperts advocate that frameworks provide guidelines for the evaluation of information processes, while others argue that information systems governance is qualitative and that distillation into a set of predefined processes freezes an organisation, which has to exist in a fluid and dynamic environment. The research endeavours to identify the effects of information systems frameworks on organisational maturity in the identified areas of importance and influence in information systems governance.Historically, business and information systems structures within organisations, have, for the most part, operated in isolation from each other. Each structure does not have a clear understanding of the contributions and requirements of the other. It may be time for those in the upper echelons of organisational management to have the vision and discipline required to adopt proven maturity models in order to create profitable synergy between business and information systems initiatiatives. ····· 1036119130

The prevalence, expense, and strategic importance of employee and management development activities suggest that these activities should be monitored on an ongoing basis. Training budgets typically define how money can be allocated for training development and delivery for an organization. Financing training activities requires analyzing needs, making decisions and monitoring results. Moreover, by using an organizational training strategy to develop the training budget, and by comparing various scenarios to determine the most cost-efficient method of delivering a training program, Human Resource Managers are more likely to win the support necessary to implement the organizations program.

Entrepreneurship is strongly link with opportunities, which come in different forms and require individuals to possess strong entrepreneurial skills. The inability of the youth to recognize entrepreneurial opportunities in and around their environment, led to their inability to engage in self-employment that is seen as an important source of employment, livelihoods and economic dynamism (OECD, 2001). This book provides an assessment of the entrepreneurial opportunities and challenges associated with opportunity recognition in the Ghana. It also gives an assessment of both the skills the youth possess and their ability to acquire appropriate skills to exploit the existing opportunities within the local economy as sources of employment. Major challenges of the youth include lack of funding, lack of skills and the none-existence of well-developed skills training institutions. It is therefore imperative for authorities of the local economy to collaborate with institutions for youth skills training and funding. ····· 1036118980
