Book Paradigm Shift in Business

Download or read book Paradigm Shift in Business written by Rajagopal and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-11 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the socialization of business as a corporate philosophy to understand customers and stakeholders in order to motivate co-creating value-based business performance. Reviewing a wide range of literature, it analyzes emerging theories of agility in business, corporate social responsibility, social learning, and value co-creation. Divided into 5 sections, this volume deliberates upon critical success factors of firms, which include diversity and cross-functionality by managing the triple and quadruple bottom-line.

Book Quantitative Models for Value Based Supply Chain Management

Download or read book Quantitative Models for Value Based Supply Chain Management written by Marcus Brandenburg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-25 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ​​​​​​​Supply chain management (SCM) strives for creating competitive advantage and value for customers by integrating business processes from end users through original suppliers. However, the question of how SCM influences the value of a firm is not fully answered. Various conceptual frameworks that explain the coherence of SCM and company value, comprehended as value-based SCM, are well accepted in scientific research, but quantitative approaches to value-based SCM are found rather seldom. The book contributes to this research gap by proposing quantitative models that allow for assessing influences of SCM on the value of a firm. Opposed to existing models that limit the observation to chosen facets of SCM or selected value drivers, this holistic approach is adequate to • reflect configurational and operational aspects of SCM, • cover all phases of the product life cycle, • financially compare value impacts of profitability-related and asset-related value drivers, and • assess influences of dynamics and uncertainties on company value.​

Book Ephemeral Retailing

Download or read book Ephemeral Retailing written by Ghalia Boustani and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-26 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often described as the "hottest" retail phenomenon, ephemeral retail concerns the growth of pop-up stores as a new mode of retailing. These temporary stores "pop-up" without notice, quickly attract crowds, then disappear or morph into something else. Although they share similarities with traditional physical stores and online stores, ephemeral stores outshine existing retail formats as they have many unique and differentiating characteristics. These stores are becoming more popular among distribution channels as they offer exclusive and surprising retail experiences. Many established brands have already integrated these new points of sale into their distribution channels, while other brands are adopting them to raise communication, awareness, sales or just for experimentation. This phenomenon is finding its place amongst retailers not only for its efficiency and effectiveness but also for its unique impact, providing a sense of novelty that makes it particularly attractive to postmodern consumers seeking hedonic experiences. This concise text introduces all aspects of this growing phenomenon and contextualises it within existing channels of distribution. It explores brand atmospheric interventions that are designed to affect customer emotions, behaviours or experiences, as well as practices retailers adopt to build relationships with their customers. It will be of interest to scholars and advanced students in retail marketing and branding.
