Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crowd Work is a phenomenon of the digital economy as well as the modern IT era. It provides a great potential for changing the way how businesses create value. As a result, organizations increasingly apply crowd work to reach out to their own employees ("Internal Crowd Work") or individuals outside the company boundaries ("External Crowd Work") to outsource certain tasks. However, the individual crowd workers perspective has been neglected within this new form of digital gainful employment. Therefore, this dissertation addresses the perception of internal as well as external crowd work and its effects on the individuals' well-being. As main result, the dissertation shows that perceived satisfaction with external crowd work mediates the effects of several perceived task characteristics on identification with external crowd work. These effects are stronger for external crowd workers that can realize greater financial compensation. Furthermore, the findings illustrate that the influence of the task characteristics on the identification with internal crowd work is mediated by the employees' psychological empowerment.

Download or read book Systems Theory and Agile Brand Management written by Jan Lies and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-21 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brands started out as communication tools to influence the image of companies or products (inside-out thinking) but have developed into channels of social forces. Powerful brands impact not just customer decisions but also markets and social institutions, such as fashion trends, city life, or even social movements. This book explores the implications of Niklas Luhmann’s theory of social systems for the theory and practice of agile brand management, in particular highlighting the central role of brand aesthetics and of brands as channels for mutual education between companies and consumers. Since the rise of social media, “perfect” brands have become the mirror of community values as the communities themselves develop brand content. Brands themselves become “living systems” and evolve like systems do. The author introduces systems theory to provide a conceptual framework that integrates the different views of branding: inside-out and outside-in thinking. This Luhmannian theory of branding is discussed against the current background of (Western) societies, which are undergoing a broad shift from hard to soft selling in marketing, influenced by social media. The book is not about whether closed systems analysis and discussion can or should replace traditional management; moreover, it emphasizes the fruitful insights and demonstrates that the power of management is limited and should be extended by looking at the means of closed systems. This book will be of primary value to scholars with an interest in systems theory and thinking, brand theory, and management. The interdisciplinary approach also makes the book a valuable resource for those researching change management, agile management, and sociology.

Download or read book Productivity Measurement and Management at the Company Level written by Kazukiyo Kurosawa and published by Elsevier Publishing Company. This book was released on 1991 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a comprehensive overview of productivity analysis at the corporate level. It begins with productivity measurement and evaluation in the workplace where the main focus is on unit input requirement. The theory of worker productivity and its management is discussed intensively. Secondly, the intermediate stage of aggregation of activities at corporate level is given in terms of total cost rentability and productivity nexus. Using this approach the total efficiency of corporate activity is evaluated and compared with productivity performance both in Japan and worldwide, as well as with the average performance of the industry in which the firm is involved. Thirdly, the final concept of corporate productivity: added value productivity is examined. Added value is the total fruit of corporate activities and the fund to be distributed among its members. The total structure of added value, which is not quite so simple as many textbooks have led to believe, is analysed in detail and applied to the corporate productivity management scheme. Finally, white-collar productivity, one of the most topical areas in productivity studies today is also examined in detail.

Download or read book Integrative Production Technology for High Wage Countries written by Christian Brecher and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-12-17 with total page 1118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Industrial production in high-wage countries like Germany is still at risk. Yet, there are many counter-examples in which producing companies dominate their competitors by not only compensating for their specific disadvantages in terms of factor costs (e.g. wages, energy, duties and taxes) but rather by minimising waste using synchronising integrativity as well as by obtaining superior adaptivity on alternating conditions. In order to respond to the issue of economic sustainability of industrial production in high-wage countries, the leading production engineering and material research scientists of RWTH Aachen University together with renowned companies have established the Cluster of Excellence “Integrative Production Technology for High-Wage Countries”. This compendium comprises the cluster’s scientific results as well as a selection of business and technology cases, in which these results have been successfully implemented into industrial practice in close cooperation with more than 30 companies of the industrial production sector.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anscheinend sperrt sich die Architektur gegen eine Form der Offenheit, wie sie Software- und Produktentwicklung, Organisation, Politik und weitere Bereiche seit den 90er Jahren vorgemacht haben: Open Source, Open Innovation, Open Design, Open Government. Was rückschrittlich anmutet, kann aber auch Interesse wecken: Worauf ist diese Hartleibigkeit der Architektur eigentlich zurückzuführen? Was sagt sie über die Architektur aus? Wie stehen deren Chancen, sich zu öffnen? Und was erhofft man sich von einer Open Architecture? Ja: Wo kommt die Frage überhaupt her, und was macht sie heute so (auf-) dringlich?
