Download or read book Media Choice written by Tilo Hartmann and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2009-06-11 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume represents the next generation of research in media psychology, bridging selective exposure into a larger framework of choice in media usage. Considering the myriad media options available to use, this work seeks to answer such questions as: What mechanisms guide an individual's exposure to/choice of media? How can researchers model them? The questions why and how people decide to use media offerings are key in current communication scholarship. Research on selective exposure has addressed this area in the past, but the term 'media choice' is used here to represent any implicit/automatic/spontaneous or explicit/deliberate 'decisions' of the users and subsequent behavioral consequences that lead to a contact with a media stimulus.
Download or read book Customer Supplier Relationships in B2B written by Antonella La Rocca and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-14 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores customer-supplier relationships in B2B markets focusing on interaction between parties. Drawing on three fields of research – studies of relationships in marketing, social interactionism in sociology, and sense-making in social psychology – the author explores the concepts and roles of actors in business relationships and how the behaviour of actors within an interaction affects the development of those relationships. Based on a review of prior research and an original empirical study, the author argues that the presence of continuous close relationships between the customer and supplier organisations bestows features of a business network on B2B markets, with distinct interdependencies and ubiquitous interactions. Exploring buyer-seller interactions, the author contends that actors’ mutually perceived identities – continuously emergent and relationship-specific – are the main factor in the development of business relationships and discusses the implications for management practice and research.

This book was released on 2018-12-13 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global business management issues and concerns are complex, diverse, changing, and often intractable. Industry actors and policy makers alike rely upon partnerships and alliances for developing and growing sustainable business organizations and ventures.

Building on these elements, the book will provide a broad array of country-specific chapters, each describing and analyzing the negotiation culture of businesspeople in a different country around the world. Finally, the book will look ahead, with an eye towards identifying and anticipating new trends and developments in the field of global negotiation. This text will appeal to scholars and researchers in international business, cross-cultural studies, and conflict management who seek to understand the challenges of intercultural communication and negotiation. It will provide trainers and consultants with the insights they need to prepare their clients for intercultural negotiation.

Download or read book Negotiation Behavior written by Dean G. Pruitt and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-09-11 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Negotiation Behavior is a theoretical synthesis of what is known about negotiation as a general phenomenon. The principles presented are illustrated with examples of negotiation from many specific realms. A great deal of attention is devoted to the motives, perceptions, and other microprocesses underlying the behavior of negotiators and to the results of laboratory experiments on negotiation. Comprised of seven chapters, this book begins by defining negotiation and contrasting it with other forms of multiparty decision making, along with its significance and the nature of research on the subject. Two fundamental theoretical notions are presented: the strategic choice model and the goal/expectation hypothesis. Subsequent chapters focus on where bargainers place their demands as well as the strategies they use to foster their interests while moving toward agreement. The reader is introduced to key concepts such as demand level and concession rate, competitive tactics, and coordinative behavior, together with integrative agreements and third-party intervention in negotiation (mediation and arbitration). This monograph will be of value to practitioners in the fields of organizational and occupational psychology, social psychology, economics, industrial relations, and international relations.
Download or read book An Integrative Perspective on Bilateral Governance of Buyer seller Relationships in Key Accounts Context written by Aditya Gupta and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dissertation, I seek to understand the spillover effects of selling team composition, structure, and knowledge creation and utilization processes (i.e., seller intrafirm aspects) on the buyer-seller relationship management (i.e., interfirm aspects) and in turn on seller firm's performance. My dissertation comprises of a brief introduction, one conceptual essay, one empirical essay, and a conclusion. The conceptual essay sets the base for the second empirical essay. For the empirical essay, I collect primary survey data using an online panel of key account managers across multiple industries and firms to investigate the spillover effect of intrafirm relational ties network on the interfirm buyer-seller relational ties network and seller's performance.In the first essay, I consider, in the context of key account management, (1) the relationship between various governance mechanisms (namely, process control, output control, proscriptive norms and prescriptive norms) available to buyer and seller firms to manage the interfirm relationships and seller's performance, (2) how the relationship between these governance mechanisms and seller's performance is affected by identity multiplicity and coordination complexity stemming from knowledge and resource diversity within the selling team (intrafirm aspects), and (3) solutions specific to key account management setting (namely, identity shaping, identity highlighting and centralization) to overcomes issues of identity multiplicity and coordination complexity and improve the relationship between governance mechanisms and seller's performance.In the second essay, I use network conceptualization to evaluate the combined effect of intrafirm consultation network (used to evaluate the knowledge utilization and creation processes) within the selling team and interfirm communication network (used to evaluate information exchange) between buyer and seller firms on seller's performance. I provide theoretical predictions and empirical evidence that there is a spillover effect of intrafirm consultation network on the interfirm communication network. I show that certain intrafirm network structure and interfirm network structure when combined together improve seller's performance by 4%-8%. For, instance, intrafirm consultation network centered on a selling team member (i.e., highly centralized network) combines with high number of ties in interfirm communication network to improve seller's performance.
