We started out from a literature, according to which Cameroonian SMEs are characterized by limited financial resources, unqualified staff, weak commercial power, insufficient research development and innovation, low turnover and ageing technologies in comparison to their competitors from other continents. Such characteristics cannot enable a SME to stay abreast in a sustainable manner in foreing market. Yet, other studies reveal the existence of Cameroonian SMEs with markets abroad that have already gone beyond the start-off point (5 years).The objective of this work is to identify the strategies of these enterprises and their performances. To attain this objective, we have mobilized existing work. These were completed by an empirical study on forty-one Cameroonian SMEs. The results obtained indicated that Cameroonian SMEs remain in foreign markets because they tailored to the environmental requirements. This shows that ultimately the Cameroonian SMEs have undergone a transformation under the effect of the threat to their survival due to increased competition. ····· 10361115228

However, management of this kind of organisations is not fully analysed in business schools and consequently managers working in such organisations have had to learn from their own experiences and errors. But music festival management is complex. Managers of this kind of organisations need more than management skills alone to be able to face daily activities. Moreover, this industry has changed in several ways and it is also expected to change in the future influenced by new trends in the sector. This fact, together with the increasing creation of music events and the lack of professionalization of the field, increases the complexity of this job more and more. Therefore, there is a need to collect and formalize all the information and experiences senior managers can give us in order for us to learn from them and as such, improve the management in these organisations. Hence, the main goal of this report is to understand leadership in music festivals in a better and deeper way through the difficulties and challenges which they have to face in the process of becoming and being a manager. ····· 10361115148

To fulfill the expectations of millions of unit holders, the mutual funds are required to function as successful institutional investors.

Will this key point in history bring new rules for business How will it affect firm corporate growth strategies In this study we developed a research based on two key consequences that come out from this crisis: (1) new regulatory systems and (2) new stakeholder perceptions on managerial practice. We evaluate the impact that a business environmental change is likely to have in corporate growth strategies. We find that the debt cost, the long term executive remuneration schemes and the shareholder risk aversion are likely to increase in the new normal business environment. The conclusions are likely to originate new benchmarks for financial investors, so that the evaluation on public firms s performance may be adjusted to a new set of indicators. Finding the correct firm positioning in the start of a new business environment is key.

As a result, two previous EU networks, the European Information Centres and the Innovation Relay Centres were encouraged to form regional consortia and issue public tenders describing how they would integrate their services. This book explores issues related to knowledge sharing in establishing the Enterprise Europe Network, based on a case study of the regional consortium of South East England. The book is based on qualitative interviews with each consortium partner and a representative from the European Commission. Drawing on theories of social constructivist institutionalism and organisational network theory, the analysis sheds light on the complexity of multilevel governance and the issues that arise when the EU-approach to regional policy is implemented in practice. It should be especially relevant for policy-makers and practitioners engaged in regional development, and for people interested in organisational change and the forming of networks. ····· 10361114776
für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Global competition, societal changes and other environmental factors have forced organisations to review existing work arrangements. Flexible work practices have been identified as one mechanism for aligning individual and organisational goals. Homebased work, telework or telecommuting, involving work at a remote site, is an example of such a practice. Working from home can have advantages for the organisation in terms of savings in infrastructure costs. Individual employees would also potentially benefit through reduced costs and the ability to better manage their work and home life. Findings from this research indicate that personal characteristics, such as demography, competencies, and the psychological profile of the homeworker contribute to the benefits gained from the program. Job characteristics, in terms of occupation and job design also contribute to success. Benefits from a homebased work program can be enhanced by selecting for appropriate employees and jobs, and devising policies that account for the home and work environment of the homeworker. The findings of this study will be of benefit to organisations, human resource practitioners and individual homeworkers. ····· 10361114766

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Organizations experience immoral behavior quite often. For example, one can think of the Madoff investment scandal and the increasing rate of frauds in companies during the last years. In order to prevent employees from behaving immoral, it is important to know what drives (im)moral behavior. This work explores the effect of emotions on moral behavior. Specifically, the emotion disgust is chosen to explore this relationship. To investigate the effect of disgust on moral behavior an experiment is conducted. This experiment has two conditions. In the experimental condition disgust is evoked by a movieclip and in the control condition no specific emotions are evoked. After the watching the movie clip participants had to complete a math task on which they could cheat. Cheating is considered as an important indicator for immoral behavior. The results show a trend that suggests that individuals who experience disgust behave less moral than individuals in a neutral emotional state. This work thus explores what drives (im)moral behavior and is interesting for managers who are interested in the effect of emotions on moral behavior. ····· 10361114733

Managers` discursive resources influence what they notice and the interpretation of what is noticed. Their ability to understand and challenge their discursive resources is crucial because the persistence of categories and metaphors that depicts a globalized world where they do not have capacity to react may explain the decline of their organizations. The stories they tell ground their emotions and their identities and then they see the world and themselves through them. Hence, their discursive resources and their emotions impact the long term survival of their organizations through the strategic exchange between top managers and organizations. ····· 10361114709

Implementation of a supply chain system has crucial impacts on a company`s financial performance. Overall supply chain performance is influenced significantly by decisions taken in its production-distribution (P-D) network. A complex P-D planning problem integrates decisions in production, transportation and warehousing as well as inventory management in order to minimise the overall system costs, while ensuring all products are produced at the right quantities and distributed to the right customers at the right time. This book aims to propose an integrated approach for the optimisation of complex aggregate P-D planning problems. To demonstrate the capability of the proposed approach in achieving the optimum solution, the developed model in this book is implemented to solve a real-life large-scale P-D planning problem. ····· 10361114708
