Introduction. A complex system of distributed situational centers is one of the main vectors of the transformation of public administration in Russia. Each region needs additional infrastructure to develop a promising mechanism of multifunctional tools for effective electronic administration and management of socio-economic processes within public and private partnerships. The versatility and exclusivity of this mechanism lie in its large-scale capabilities, which make it possible to engage the most important spheres of the state’s life in detailed monitoring, analysis, forecasting, and strategizing. Study objects and methods. The research featured the management systems of situational centers, which aim at developing public administration and regulation by increasing the speed of decision-making. The study involved such standard methods as economic analysis, classification, expert assessment, deduction, etc. Results and discussion. The results can serve as a theoretical basis for modifying the existing and planned situational centers in Russia, especially those that will form an integral part of the system of distributed situational centers. Taking into account the rapid development of new public administration instruments, it is necessary to bridge the gap between Russia and other countries. Conclusion. Modern realities dictate new approaches in the field of public administration and regulation. That is why the development of situational centers is a strategically important area for creating a centralized system for managing the country. Improving the functionality of such centers will lead to a qualitative improvement in the entire structure of the state apparatus.

PurposeWhile the literature on migration highlights the reshaping of host and immigrant population in countries, there is a paucity of research in marketing investigating the evolving dynamics for acculturation. The purpose of this study is to further the understanding of the emerging phenomenon of acculturation and identity negotiation.Design/methodology/approachThree experiments examined situational ethnicity, self-construal and identity negotiation in home and host culture work and social settings. Study 1 and Study 2 were conducted in the United Kingdom (UK), where the host country is the majority population. Study 3 was conducted in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), where the host country is the minority population. Study 4 utilized qualitative interviews in both countries.FindingsResults from all four studies show that ethnic consumers deploy “indifference” as an identity negotiation mechanism when the host society is the majority population (UK) and when the host society has the minority population (UAE).Originality/valueThe authors offer new insights into identity negotiation by ethnic consumers when the host society is the majority population as well as the minority population. “Indifference”, i.e. preferring to neither fit in nor stand out as an identity negotiation mechanism, is deployed in work and social settings of home and host societies. The authors also advance the existing literature on acculturation by examining whether independent and interdependent self-construal influence identity negotiation.

The article employs the methods of economic analysis, forecasting, modeling, and systemic approach. The author examines the questions of creation and functionality of situation centers in the Russian Federation. It is noted that the Russian Federation has accumulated vast experience in establishment and activity of the situation centers. The research demonstrates that the situation centers allow increasing the competence, efficiency, and reliability of managerial decision-making, as well as ensure construction of a single dynamic vertical structure of decision-making. The novelty of this work lies in outlining the issues in the activity of situational centers at the current stage, the ways for their solution, and recommendation for the development of sitututations centers. The author also describes the feasibility of using situation centers in the conditions of pandemic for countering COVID-19. The conclusion is made that the system of situation centers is one of the crucial mechanisms for improving the effectiveness of public administration in achieving sustainable socioeconomic development and strengthening national security of the Russian Federation. The use of situation centers allows increasing the competence, efficiency, and reliability of managerial decision-making in vital spheres, healthcare in the time of pandemic. The research conducted in recent years prove the need for the transformation of traditional situation centers into the situation development centers.

PurposeThe purpose of this research is to explore the ways of integrating situational awareness into business process management for the purpose of realising hyper automated business processes. Such business processes will help improve their customer experiences, enhance the reliability of service delivery and lower the operational cost for a more competitive and sustainable business.Design/methodology/approachOntology has been deployed to establish the context modelling method, and the event handling mechanisms are developed on the basis of event calculus. An approach on performance of the proposed approach has been evaluation by checking the cost savings from the simulation of a large number of business processes.FindingsIn this research, the authors have formalised the context presentation for a business process with a focus on rules and entities to support context perception; proposed a system architecture to illustrate the structure and constitution of a supporting system for intelligent and situation aware business process management; developed real-time event elicitation and interpretation mechanisms to operationalise the perception of contextual dynamics and real-time responses; and evaluated the applicability of the proposed approaches and the performance improvement to business processes.Originality/valueThis paper presents a framework covering process context modelling, system architecture and real-time event handling mechanisms to support situational awareness of business processes. The reported research is based on our previous work on radio frequency identification-enabled applications and context-aware business process management with substantial extension to process context modelling and process simulation.

Full textAbstract:
The authors develop a contingency paradigm involving two situational factors (the nature of the buying task and the degree of perceived risk) to explain the predictive abilities of seven formal models of group choice and to see how the mechanism of buying center choice is affected by situational factors. In an empirical test of the models and the paradigm involving 104 procurement decisions made by buying centers, they found that the paradigm does significantly better than any single model in terms of predicting group choice. The contingency paradigm predicted accurately in 49% of the cases whereas the best alternative single model predicted correctly in only 20% of the cases. The results provide empirical support for several propositions in the organizational buying behavior literature.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The crucial role of knowledge sharing in an organization has become even more crucial lately, resulting in garnering more attention by scholars. In reality, while several organizations expect their employees to share knowledge with colleagues actively, many choose to hide their knowledge when asked for help. This study aims to explore whether negative workplace gossip (NWG) affects employee knowledge hiding (KH), as well as analyzes whether relational identification (RI) and interpersonal trust (IT) play a chain mediating role between the two, and discusses whether forgiveness climate (FC) could be used as a boundary condition in the relationships mentioned above. Design/methodology/approach Based on the conservation of resource (COR) theory and the cognitive–affective personality system (CAPS) theory, the authors surveyed 326 employees in China at 2 time-points and explored the correlation between NWG and KH, as well as the underlying mechanism. Using confirmatory factor analysis, bootstrapping method and structural equation model, the authors validated the research hypotheses. Findings The findings revealed the following: NWG negatively correlates with KH; RI and IT play a mediation role between NWG and KH, respectively, and both variables also play a chain mediation role in the relationship mentioned above; and FC moderates the negative impact of NWG on RI, further moderating the chain mediation between RI and IT and between NWG and KH. Originality/value First, this study established the correlation between NWG and KH, as well as analyzed the internal mechanism between the two. Besides, this study adds to scholars’ understanding of the underlying mechanisms by which these effects could occur. Second, this study demonstrated the moderating effect of FC – a situational feature that has been neglected in previous studies. Furthermore, this study can not only complement the situational factors ignored in previous studies but also broaden the application scope of CAPS. Finally, this study effectively combines COR and CAPS, which provides a basis for the application of these two theories in the future.

Full textAbstract:
Through a situational approach to strategic management of regional and urban development it is possible to identify the interaction between the managerial process and mechanism; to bring together the spatial and activity-related concepts of territorial development; and to explain the phenomenon in question from both general and specific perspectives. Territorial development is becoming the principal object of strategic management of a region or a city, its key tool being the utilization of its own good practices. The main objective of territorial development is increasing the capacity for constructive interaction between all its “actors and factors”. In this situation, monitoring of territorial development is seen as an integral part of management. It ensures the inventory, observation, and comparison of various trends determining the situation, as well as the results of actions aimed at its targeted alteration. Monitoring helps not only to promptly identify threats, but also to detect the opportunities for developing the situation in the desired directions within the “natural” trends of its dynamics. The situational approach to the monitoring of regional and urban development presented in the article was implemented in the development of the Strategy for the Socioeconomic Development of the City of Moscow until 2015 (as commissioned by the Department of Economic Policy and Development of the Government of Moscow) by an international team headed by the experts of Russian Presidential Academy of National Economy and Public Administration and Higher School of Economics.

Full textAbstract:
The impact of multilevel level governance on the frequency of ethical issues in temporary organizations (TOs) is investigated. A structural equation model, based on a global survey, showed that behavior control, as a governance mechanism at the temporary organization (TO) level, reduces the frequency of ethical issues. This relationship is partly mediated through corporate governance, which controls ethical issues by following good governance principles. Using institutional and agency theory, we identify a substitution effect, where micro level (TO) governance substitutes for ‘holes’ in the macro level (corporate) governance. Situational contingencies for the synchronization of governance efforts across macro and micro levels are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Workplace coaching is increasingly popular as a global learning and development tool for enhancing employees’ professional capabilities. However, little is known about the role of cross-cultural factors in coaching and the relationships between cross-cultural factors and both coaching approach and motivation factors. Accordingly, by drawing on and integrating theories from the research areas of cross-cultural psychology, regulatory focus, and training, we propose a theoretical framework that unravels the effectiveness of different coaching approaches in different cultural and coaching contexts. We propose that chronic regulatory focus is an underlying mechanism that predicts the effectiveness of a chosen coaching approach in specific contexts of societal uncertainty avoidance (i.e., low vs. high uncertainty avoidance). Furthermore, we propose that coaching context elicits coachee situational regulatory focus, and that compatibility between coachee chronic and situational regulatory focus has a significant impact on coachee pre-coaching motivation. We conclude by discussing implications for future research and practice.

Full textAbstract:
An individual’s commitment stimulates action, but we know little about how entrepreneurial commitment initially emerges. Utilising affect-as-information and the appraisal theory, our objective is to investigate the influence of situational emotional information on the venture goal commitment of individuals, defined as commitment to the goal of starting a new venture. Based on a correlational pilot study and an experimental scenario approach, we first link encouragement and discouragement provided by the individual’s parents and friends to venture goal commitment and test the mediating role of opportunity evaluation. Second, we find that emotional intelligence plays a moderating role in the relationship between situational emotional information and venture goal commitment as mediated through opportunity evaluation. Overall, our research underscores the emotional and cognitive mechanisms that shape venture goal commitment by explaining how and under which conditions situational emotional information is internalised and venture goal commitment emerges.

Full textAbstract:
Although a significant body of knowledge has been created around strategic management that drives change and innovation, there are voids in the literature regarding assembling a flexible and localized environmental scanning (ES) framework needed to assess threats, opportunities, the current environment, and the desired end-state of a global value chain (GVC) with direct linkages to strategic enactment. In this paper, the author describes this gap and develops a capability to create a task plan from a situational ES. The need for ES customization is further validated as a result of the change during a transformation or adaptation, hence the need for a localized feedback mechanism.

Objectives The aim of the study is to identify the development directions for industrial production in the regions of the Russian Federation under the conditions of ongoing sanction pressure.Methods Systemic and situational approaches, as well as the modelling of economic processes and phenomena, are used as research methods. The graphic images method is used in order to visualise the analytical data and the results.Results The development features of industrial production in the country's regions are examined; in particular, those of the Volga Federal District and the Perm Krai. Generally positive trends associated with production volumes – as well as a slight decrease in prices and production volumes in metallurgy caused by sanctions and unfavourable external market conditions – are revealed. Due to increased demand for certain types of products,Metallurgical production in Russia is developing in different directions;however, as a consequence of restrictions imposed on some of them, there is a need to develop compensatory mechanisms based on state regulation of pricing and salespolicies. Despite the sanctions, export of the products of the industry under review is increasing;nevertheless, the stability of exporting enterprises is affected by volatility in world prices. The relevance of state complex support measures is substantiated; these consist in the formation of an anti-crisis management mechanism based on approaches that have been proven in industries experiencing problems of the world market situation.Conclusion Taking into account the performed analysis, an anti-crisis management mechanism in the metallurgical sector, which can be adapted to the regional and branch features of operating industrial enterprises, was proposed.

PurposeThis study examines how and when group cohesion influences employee voice.Design/methodology/approachThe sample comprises 215 employees from 41 workgroups in China. Multilevel path analyses were used to test the hypotheses.FindingsThe results show that group cohesion is positively related to employee voice. Group psychological safety mediates the positive relationship between group cohesion and employee voice. Further, high cohesion strength enhances the association of group cohesion with employee voice as well as the mediating effect of group cohesion on voice behavior through group psychological safety.Research limitations/implicationsThis study employs a cross-sectional design and does not establish causal relationships among the variables examined. This study offers research implications because it adds to our knowledge on the situational antecedents of voice behavior.Practical implicationsThe findings suggest that group cohesion plays an important role in influencing employee voice. To encourage employees to speak up, managers should pay attention to group cohesion in terms of both cohesion level and strength.Originality/valueThis study is the first to examine the mechanism and condition of the effect of group cohesion on employee voice, thus extending knowledge on the situational factors influencing voice behavior.

Full textAbstract:
The successful functioning of a diversified enterprise requires a well-organized team of workers and well-chosen business structures for cooperation and integration to provide balanced and effective development of its business units aimed at the maximum satisfaction of its own interests and achievement of the general goal of the enterprise functioning. The establishment and support of such relations depend significantly on the effective motivational activities both for the enterprise employees (internal ones) and its partners (external ones). At the same time, the intensity of the motivational activities for different business entities depends on the level of their possible influence on the efficiency of the corresponding business entity performance, the level of coordination and optimality of mutual relations between these business entities, and success of the strategic development of the whole diversified enterprise. That is, the motivational activities for different influence groups are different depending on the enterprise mission, the focus of its long-term goals, the chosen strategic way of the development, and others. Purpose. Consequently, the objective of this article is to elaborate theoretical and methodical recommendations regarding the formation of the complex motivational mechanism of the diversified enterprise by grounding and selection of a motivational system for each influence group attractive for it at a certain point of time (employees, consumers, opponents, and suppliers). Methodology. To achieve the set objective, the research of this work is conducted using the methods of generalization, abstraction, analysis, synthesis, and situational modeling. The calculation of the efficiency of the proposed activities of the complex motivational mechanism is conducted using the methods of factor analysis, effective competition theory, and integral method. Findings. The research conducted resulted in the definition of the structure of complex motivational mechanism of the diversified enterprise, description of the features of its external and internal constituents, and formation of the influence groups for each constituent. Possible ways of the combination of important for the enterprise influence groups are formed and of the main conditions for their use are presented depending on the selected general strategy of the enterprise development. Originality. The novelty of this article involves theoretical and practical recommendations for the formation, implementation, and realization of the activities of the complex motivational mechanism for the diversified enterprise. Practical value. The activities of the complex motivational mechanism for the JV Spheros-Electron Ltd. have been developed. The key elements of the formation and the methods of realization of the motivational systems for different influence groups of the enterprise under study have been described. The efficiency of the proposed activities has been calculated which proves their effectiveness, soundness of the development, and necessity of realization.

PurposeThe experiences materialising as learning tasks in the entrepreneurial context do not automatically transform into effective learning for a novice entrepreneur. In this paper, we develop a comprehensive and situational role taxonomy for entrepreneurial mentoring meant to address this challenge.Design/methodology/approachEntrepreneurial mentoring builds on the assumption that it can facilitate the transformation of experience and consequently enhance the learning outcomes for a novice entrepreneur. By integrating and extending the extant research on entrepreneurial learning and mentoring, we argue for a dynamic and situational approach, scrutinising the fit between discrete entrepreneurial learning modes and the mentoring functions targeting them.FindingsWe complete our theorising by developing four propositions and a taxonomy of mentor roles. The role taxonomy comprises a repertoire of four different roles that target the learning modes through learning-enabling mechanisms drawn from the learning literature.Originality/valueThe role taxonomy poses important implications for future entrepreneurship research. The role taxonomy can be directly employed in more targeted, formal training programmes for both mentees and mentors.

Full textAbstract:
The article highlights the main aspects and objectives of crisis management, which involves the use of specific management, financial and organizational methods and tools to maintain the appropriate level of economic security of domestic construction companies in the digitalization of the economy. Under these conditions, the creation of such a decision support system, which would allow timely identification of the state of the managed system, even with limited information and indirect signs of increasing crisis trends, as well as to create a basis for predicting possible consequences. These tasks are solved in the process of diagnosing the financial condition of the enterprise as part of crisis management. The crisis management system has properties that determine the features of the management mechanism: flexibility and adaptability, the ability to diversify and timely situational response, as well as the ability to effectively use the potential of the enterprise and informal management methods. These features of the mechanism of crisis management are provided by solving diagnostic tasks, which include timely recognition of symptoms, factors and causes of the crisis, classification of the latter, expert assessment of crisis measures and prospects for the development of the object of management. Diagnosis of financial condition is a multifactorial system of support for management decisions, based on a fundamentally new antisipative concept of management. Such a system is designed to provide comprehensive identification, analysis, elimination and forecasting of enterprise problems in order to ensure the adoption of advanced management decisions aimed at achieving its strategic and tactical goals.

Full textAbstract:
This study examined person-centered (gender, work self-esteem) and situational (hierarchical power relations, mistreatment severity, intentionality) variables that determine employee voice to remedy interpersonal mistreatment. Data were collected from graduate business students who responded to a scenario describing exposure to mistreatment by a work colleague. Results suggested that gender, work self-esteem, and relative hierarchical power were most predictive of remedial voice to an internal mediator. Power relations played an important moderating role such that lower power positions seemed to inhibit voice. That is, women would be more likely than men to voice but only when a co-worker (versus supervisor) was the offender. Individuals with low work self-esteem would be less likely to voice than individuals with high work self-esteem when mistreated by a supervisor (versus co-worker). The results support using a social-psychological perspective for identifying determinants of remedial voicing (or hesitation to voice) related to persons, situations, and their interactions.

Full textAbstract:
In recent years, the urgency of finding new forms, methods and organizational and economic mechanisms to improve personnel management in large industrial enterprises has increased. The article substantiates the theoretical principles of personnel management in large industrial enterprises in order to improve the mechanism of ensuring its efficiency. The study found that personnel management is to comprehensively assess the relations in the workforce, which are related to the hiring and supply of labour, its pay, staff turnover, trends and prospects. The purpose of personnel management is to provide employees with the necessary quantitative and qualitative parameters and the organization of their effective work. It is transformed into more specific goals, which are determined by the goals of the enterprise. It is revealed that it is expedient to apply an integrated approach to personnel management, the essence of which is to combine and interact process, system, situational and strategic approaches. The article clarifies the list of functions and tasks of personnel management in a large industrial enterprise, the difference of which is that it includes the entire list of management functions (forecasting, planning, organization, control, analysis, accounting, regulation) a single interconnected set of processes in management staff. On the basis of generalization of scientific developments and results of current practice of functioning of large industrial enterprises the priority directions of improvement of personnel management are offered: maintenance of conditions of professional development of personnel; improving the system of rationing and remuneration; improving working conditions, safety and security; development of social and labour relations and organizational culture in the digital economy; ensuring social protection in the postcoronavirus period; improving the efficiency of work with youth.

Full textAbstract:
Problem statement. The introduction of new requirements for rationing in the construction industry provides for changes in the rationing methodology, through the use of a predominantly parametric method. This stimulates the use in management of modern approaches, methods and mechanisms, technologies, innovative organizational and technological solutions to improve the quality and volume of construction, which in turn can accelerate the recovery from the crisis and the development of the construction industry as a whole.The use of the parametric method, in addition to the certain advantages indicated above, creates new challenges for the efficiency of management in the construction industry. On the one hand, there is an increase in the alternatives of possible managerial and organizational and technological solutions; identification of the list and consequences of risks for each alternative; improvement of the procedure and processes for predicting the consequences of each of the alternatives; putting forward new requirements for the information necessary for decision-making, the possibilities of its analysis and interpretation.On the other hand, the use of such a selection mechanism and the lack of clear requirements and orders can increase the costs of achieving the declared quality and reliability requirements of the construction object, and accordingly increase financial and organizational and technological risks. This creates the preconditions for the use of integrated management with the use of appropriate organizational and technological solutions that can satisfy both the requirements of quality management and risk management in construction. Purpose of the article − describe and substantiate the possibility of applying the mechanism for choosing organizational and technological solutions aimed at achieving parametric criteria as target indicators for managing construction processes in conditions of uncertainty using a functional model of a system-integrated approach. Conclusion. It has been substantiated that for an effective process of managing construction processes within an integrated approach, in conditions of uncertainty, it is necessary to use a system-wide algorithmic mechanism, which will ensure the coordination of control functions, their parallel and continuous execution within individual processes, the choice and decision-making in emergency situations for a minimum possible time period.This requires the compliance of each organizational and technological solution with the established criteria and the possibility of their comparison, in order to select the most effective in terms of leveling risk, achieving efficiency − in relation to their cost; and criteria for feasibility, assessment of the impact on quality indicators, implementation in time, competence and technological feasibility − in relation to their ability to implement. Keywords: construction process management; rationing; parametric method, integrated approach; processapproach; situational approach; a mechanism for choosing organizational and technological solutions

This study develops and tests an integrative model to better understand the mechanisms by which the leadermember exchange (LMX) determines workers’ safety behaviours. The modified theory of planned behaviour (TPB) was proposed by using attitudinal ambivalence to replace univalent safety attitude. Empirical data were collected from 229 construction workers in China using a detailed questionnaire. Both situational and routine safety violations were considered in this model. The results showed that LMX had significant effects on both types of safety violations through three mediators from the modified TPB framework. Specifically, attitudinal ambivalence and group safety norm mediated the relationships between LMX and both types workers’ safety violations. However, perceived behavioural control only mediated the relationship between LMX and individuals’ routine safety violations. Furthermore, this research supported the distinctions between situational and routine safety violations. The indirect effects of LMX on individuals’ situational safety violations took place mainly through group safety norm. By contrast, the indirect effects on individuals’ routine safety violations took place mainly through attitudinal ambivalence and perceived behavioural control. Finally, the theoretical and practical implications, research limitations, and future directions were discussed. The results provide some meaningful insights into how to improve safety compliance behaviours from the perspective of supervisor-worker relationships.

Full textAbstract:
Maritime processes involve actors and systems that continuously change their underlying environment, location and threat exposure. Thus, risk mitigation requires a dynamic risk assessment process, coupled with an adaptive, event driven security enforcement mechanism, to efficiently deal with dynamically evolving risks in a cost efficient manner. In this paper, we propose an adaptive security framework that covers both situational risk assessment and situational driven security policy deployment. We extend MITIGATE, a maritime-specific risk assessment methodology, to capture situations in the risk assessment process and thus produce fine-grained and situation-specific, dynamic risk estimations. Then, we integrate DynSMAUG, a situation-driven security management system, to enforce adaptive security policies that dynamically implement security controls specific to each situation. To validate the proposed framework, we test it based on maritime cargo transfer service. We utilize various maritime specific and generic systems employed during cargo transfer, to produce dynamic risks for various situations. Our results show that the proposed framework can effectively assess dynamic risks per situation and automate the enforcement of adaptive security controls per situation. This is an important improvement in contrast to static and situation-agnostic risk assessment frameworks, where security controls always default to worst-case risks, with a consequent impact on the cost and the applicability of proper security controls.

Purpose The aim of this paper is to conduct a systematic literature review to understand the state of the art of partnerships between humanitarian organizations and business corporations in managing humanitarian logistics. Design/methodology/approach A systematic literature review is conducted based on the steps proposed by Denyer and Tranfield (2009). The context-intervention-mechanism-outcome (CIMO) logic is applied to identify the state of the art of partnerships between humanitarian organizations and business corporations in humanitarian logistics. Thirty-six papers related to the topic are extracted from recognized journal databases and then classified into four categories based on the CIMO logic: situational context, intervention factors, mechanisms and outcomes. Findings The study shows that while the context and mechanisms for developing cross-sector partnerships between the humanitarian and the business sector have been examined and illuminated by many researchers, additional research (in particular, empirical studies) is needed to measure outcomes as well as the contributions of partnerships to the performance of humanitarian logistics. In addition to synthesizing the literature in this area, this study also presents challenges of such partnerships. Practical implications The study improves the understanding of the state of cross-sector partnerships in humanitarian logistics as well as identifies opportunities for future research in this area. The study provides reasons and motives of initiating humanitarian–business partnerships in humanitarian logistics as well as their mechanisms and potential outcomes. This may help in developing successful logistics partnerships with each other. Originality/value This is the first systematic literature review to examine the nature of partnerships between humanitarian organizations and business corporations in humanitarian logistics using CIMO logic.

The assessment of impact of oil production economic activities on land pollution in Russia contributes to evolutionary management decision making. Oil industrial pollution affects negatively flora and fauna. Thus, its important to identify the level of its exposure and danger, the site of contamination. A system approach is needed. When studying the environment, its necessary to consider the presence of risk situations and stochastic irreversible changes. Its essential to identify the nature and type of soil contamination with petroleum products using high-tech tools, intellectual procedures. The work considers modeling of such situation, forecasting and identification of oil contaminants. The submodel of optimal termination of monitoring is also considered. Ending monitoring of environmental optimization will result in lower monitoring costs, since monitoring oilcontaminated environments is an expensive and complex technological mechanism, often requiring satellite data. The proposed algorithm for modeling and system analysis is based on situational modeling. Evolutionary modeling allows to adapt the procedure (methodology) of forecasting and assessment to environmental risk factors. It increases the accuracy (formalization and evidence) and completeness of conclusions, the efficiency of situation analysis, which affects manageability of risk both for the oil complex and for individual enterprise in the industry. The results of the research may be used for development of software tools, in particular expert and predictive systems. Situational models are needed when oil companies are solving multi-criteria and multifactor problems.

Objectives The aim of the study is to apply a systemic approach to the development of organisational forms and management methods of participants of the investment process in the construction industry.Methods The research method was based on theoretical study, analytical generalisation and systematisation of normative and legislative bases, conceptual provisions and established practice of organising the interaction of participants in the investment process in construction. Systemic and situational approaches, statistical analysis and the method of graphic images were used in the research.Results The current legislative support of investment activity in construction was analytically generalised. The contemporary forms of organisational-economic interaction between the main participants in the sphere of investment relations in construction were investigated and features of their inclusion in the investment process were disclosed. A development form for the mechanism is proposed that allows the interests of all participants of the investment process in construction to be realised without harming the customer, contractor or investor, resulting in a synergetic effect. The functional role of the state in maintaining control over the implementation of investment projects in construction is stipulated. Effective forms and methods of implementing the organisational and economic mechanism for interaction between participants of the investment process in construction are disclosed, providing solutions to key issues in the investment and construction sectors, focused on the development and promotion of alternative options for investment and project solutions, the management of corporate resources and the organisation of financing investments in construction.Conclusion The systemic approach to the management of participants of the investment process in construction will make it possible to realise the needs of the investment-construction complex in highly effective forms of organisation and methods for implementing the investment projects. To overcome existing contradictions, characteristic for investment processes, it is necessary to develop and implement incentive measures that unite the interests of all participants in the construction process.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the ongoing debate on the appropriate organizational design for the process management implementation. Using the lens of institutional theory, the paper discusses how organizations adapt to a required implementation of a process view alongside their organizational structures. Design/methodology/approach The study is designed as a single case study of a Norwegian shipping company. On the one hand, shipping companies are traditionally managed by functions due to the specifics of maritime operations and high safety-related risks of the work. On the other hand, the rising demands of regulatory bodies and customers within the offshore logistics are calling for implementation of a process view within the organizations, which implies management by processes. Findings The study analyses conflicting requirements of the institutional environment influencing organizational structure and how these conflicts are addressed by the company. Besides, it describes the decoupling mechanism the company uses to balance between such requirements and adapt to the changes of the institutional pressures. Originality/value The study introduces a situational-based organizational structure as an alternative for both process and vertical views implementation within the companies operating in the highly demanding institutional environments.

PurposeThe contemporary organizational environment calls for work team members to be more resilient in the face of likely setbacks, which are routinely experienced at the workplace. In two separate studies of work teams, we examine the impact of team sensemaking on team bricolage and subsequently, on team resilience. These studies further investigate whether task interdependence moderates the mediation of team bricolage for the relationship between team sensemaking and team resilience. In brief, these two studies conceptualize and test the relevance of team sensemaking, team bricolage and task interdependence for team resilience.Design/methodology/approachA sample of 213 team members participated in the self-administered survey for Study 1. For Study 2, a second sample collected from 81 teams, elicited team-level data by consensus among team members.FindingsFindings show that team sensemaking as an antecedent has a significant and positive impact on team resilience. The results also show how and when the relationship between team sensemaking and team resilience is facilitated through an underlying mechanism of team bricolage in the presence of task interdependence among team members. This research improves the understanding about the relationship between team sensemaking and team resilience by examining the underlying mechanism and boundary condition under which the relationship is the strongest.Practical implicationsThese findings have important implications for human resource managers. In face of adverse events, team sensemaking plays a pivotal role as it can enable team members to have better situational awareness, communication and reflection. Team sensemaking can be further facilitated for improved team resilience by embedding bricolage and task interdependence components in the employee orientation, job description and training of potential and current employees.Originality/valueThese findings demonstrate that in the wake of adverse events, team sensemaking can play a pivotal role as it enables team members to have better situational awareness, communication and reflection. For team resilience, the findings imply that team sensemaking can be further facilitated by team bricolage in the presence of task interdependence in work teams. Thus, managers of modern work teams and organizations can sensitize team members about these aspects through employee orientation, job description and on and off job training activities.

Abstract Introduction Accurately transmitting information in a burn mass casualty incident (BMCI) is critical. Modern technology, including “apps” and web-based systems coordinated through a central command center addresses this need. The system should 1.) Function as a real-time link between on-scene personnel, local hospitals or trauma centers and regional burn centers; 2.) Organize triage in accordance with accepted burn mass casualty national standards; and 3.) Match acuity of age and percent burn to immediate open beds, either direct from the scene or from secondary hospitals, without overwhelming any one particular facility. Methods Extensive literature review was conducted to do a comparative study of similar/existing commercial data management tools; investigate technology designs of mobile apps and web browsers accessible to cloud-based systems, and identify what data and processes needed to be tracked and coordinated across diverse stakeholders to deliver real-time situational awareness for definitive medical planning capabilities. Results Development of a Burn Patient Transfer System (BPTS) web-based application with mobile access resulted. The BPTS is series of dashboards designed for specific patient management for both referring (RF) and receiving facilities (RC), coordinated through a central command center. Focus for RFs includes an ability to list number of patients by acuity, addition of new patients, transfer status confirmation and situational awareness throughout the BMCI. RCs report or modify open bed availability of both immediate and eventual beds, for adult or pediatric patients. With this information, appropriate receiving facilities are identified by command personnel to coordinate approval of patient transfer, mode of transport and maintain situational awareness between medical personnel at referring and receiving facilities without exceeding facility surge capability. Clinical experts are responsible for final decisions on a case-by-case basis at both RF and RCs, as defined by a patient transfer algorithm matching patients by age and acuity. Conclusions The BPTS is an accessible communications system designed to serve three critical functions; A). Provide a mechanism and platform to report both immediate and surge burn bed capacity; B). Match patient acuity with available open beds at registered medical facilities and burn centers in accordance with ABA Disaster Triage recommendations and C). Track patient movement in real-time. Its core functionality is patient transfer management to and from locations where appropriate care can be delivered based upon clinical needs. This may include initial transfer to a local hospital or trauma center for primary stabilization, or direct to a burn center if and when weather, security and infrastructure permit.

The paper analyses various scientific approaches to the interpretation of the essence of the concept of “personnel management”, defines the specific characteristics and principles of this process. For a detailed study of the essence and content of the concept of the personnel management, theoretical approaches to this definition and substantiation of its content in the context of various scientific schools and management theories are analysed. Scientific approaches to understanding the functional role and essence of the personnel management in various scientific schools are analysed, namely: schools of scientific management, classical (administrative) school of management, theory of perfect bureaucracy, school of human relations, empirical school of management, school of social systems, and “new school”.
The main differences in understanding the process of the personnel management in different theories of management are investigated, the main of which are: situational management theory; system theory of management; theory of organizational culture; theory of human resources management; theory of management culture. The relationship scheme and the place of the personnel management system in the enterprise management in general are substantiated. A three-level personnel management system for tactical, operational and ongoing tasks is proposed. The mechanism of organizational and economic support of the personnel management as a system of synergistically interconnected organizational and economic factors for establishing high-performance HR-management in the enterprise is substantiated. The main elements of organizational and economic support for improving the personnel management system of enterprises are scientific and theoretical approaches to the forming of this system; principles of personnel management; methods of labour management; functions of HR-management; economic levers; methodological support; information support; monitoring of personnel management.

Full textAbstract:
This article adopts a ‘party-political’ approach to studying legislative influence on security policy-making. It argues that legislative logrolling constitutes a key mechanism for the government to secure votes in parliament while facilitating the opposition to advance its own interests, especially when the government requires parliament’s consent for security policy. The article investigates legislative logrolling in the context of weak executives, specifically looking at minority coalitions and majority coalitions with ideological and policy divergences. Logrolling is critical for these types of governments, as their structural and situational weaknesses force them to cooperate with opposition parties to maintain parliamentary support. Using the Danish and Dutch decisions to participate in the 2003 Iraq War, and Israel’s 2005 decision to unilaterally withdraw from Gaza, this article elucidates the ways in which legislative logrolling between the governing and opposition parties facilitates security policy-making in parliament.

Purpose This paper aims to explore how negative emotions lead to differential relationships with informal learning. Informal learning is posited to serve as a coping mechanism and positively influence performance. Design/methodology/approach This paper provides a conceptual, process-based framework to explain the relationship between informal learning and stressful emotions of anger and anxiety. Findings The proposed framework in this paper suggests that informal learning in conjunction with emotion regulation can help neutralize negative emotions and promote improved cognitive functioning, better social functioning and higher task performance. From a practical perspective, the provided framework should help managers and organizational leaders better understand the emergence of negative emotion and how to constructively channel employee well-being from them. Originality/value Much of the informal learning literature has investigated dispositional and situational influences, without regard to the role that discrete emotions play in influencing cognitive, behavioral and motivational learning processes. This paper addresses this gap through a theoretical framework that explains the relationship between negative emotions and informal learning.

PurposeThis paper aims to explore how innovation capability and market response capability of small and medium-size enterprises (SMEs) affect their supply chain financing performance (SCFP) through supply chain financing solutions (SCFS) adoption. At the same time, the mechanism by which supply chain financing reduces information asymmetry before (ex-ante) and after (ex-post) SCFS adoption to promote SCFP is also inquired.Design/methodology/approachDrawing on enterprise competence theory, this paper proposes a theoretical model and tests it using survey data from a sample of 218 SMEs in China. Multiple regression analysis is employed to test the hypothesis.FindingsThe study finds that: (1) SMEs' innovation capability and market response capability positively affect SCFP. (2) SMEs' innovation capability and market response capability exert significantly positive effects on SCFS adoption. (3) SCFS adoption plays a mediating role between SME capabilities and SCFP. (4) Supply chain integration (SCI) and information technology application have no moderating effects on the relationship between SME capabilities and SCFS adoption. Finally, (5) SCI and information technology application have positive moderating effects on the relationship between SCFS adoption and SCFP.Originality/valueBased on enterprise competence theory, this study sheds light on the internal mechanism through which SMEs' capabilities affect SCFP by introducing SCFS adoption and explores the role of situational factors in SCF in reducing ex-ante and ex-post information asymmetry. This study provides an innovative theoretical perspective on supply chain financing and enriches the existing research.

This study uses the structured–pragmatics–situational case study approach to explore the intrinsic mechanism of enterprise digital enablement using affordance theory and how traditional enterprises enable customers to participate in value co-creation through information technology, then realize business model innovation and maintain continuous consumption. The study revealed the following: (1) Product affordance drives customers’ original willingness to engage in value co-creation in four dimensions: economy, reliability, uniqueness, and selectivity; (2) The visibility, convenience, association, and persistence of the platform affordance enhance users’ abilities to engage in value co-creation; (3) The interaction of affordance, structural enablement, and digital enablement drives the interaction of willingness and capability to engage in value co-creation; and (4) User participation behaviors in value co-creation can be divided into three dimensions (informational, actionable, and attitudinal participation)and four stages. The findings explain how traditional enterprises use IT enablement to promote business model innovation of customer participation in value co-creation and enrich the theories of digital enablement. The conclusions reveal the managerial implications of the ways, paths, and mechanism of business model innovation by IT enabling customers to participate in value co-creation.

Full textAbstract:
Corporate strategy and enterprise innovation are highly relevant to corporate sustainability. Although previous studies on corporate strategy and enterprise innovation have yielded many results, a consensus regarding the relationship between the two is still lacking. The purpose of this study was to empirically analyze the impact of corporate strategy on corporate innovation performance and analyze corporate risk-taking as a potential factor mediating such. Based on data for listed Chinese A-share manufacturing companies for 2008 to 2018, this empirical study found that corporate strategy and corporate innovation show an inverted U-shaped relationship. Corporate risk-taking plays a mediating effect between corporate strategy and corporate innovation performance. This study expands the knowledge on situational variables and the mechanism by which corporate strategy might impact enterprise innovation and can enlighten managers to promote the sustainable development of manufacturing enterprises.

Provided graphical representation concerning the definition of enterprises competitiveness of the port sector. In addition to the objective economic categories, such as price, salary, income and profits, the main elements of the organizational and economic management mechanism, in the current conditions, should also be added the level of competitiveness. It should be noted that the principles of the organizational and economic management mechanism formation had better be based on the systematic and situational approach. And the competitive advantages of the ports, formed on the basis of their production profile and the system of interconnected signs of competitiveness, must determine the need to select and implement a market strategy aimed at achieving these competitive advantages. In the presence of a competitive market and a developed competitive environment, the ability of significant number of enterprises in the ports sphere to survive will be determined by their competitiveness, which is realized in the process of enterprises in the market during the competition. The authors concluded that the main outcome of the competitive functioning arrangements of modern port should be the following: ensuring stable long-term market position, practically permanent profit growth and ensure capitalization. As a main result can be selected as one of the criteria, and all together, depending on the state of the port and the stage of its life cycle.

Attacks are always seeking ways of exploiting any existing weakness in wireless network. The purpose of security situation awareness is to recognize, analyze, forecast, and handle the misbehaviors, assisting network management. Nevertheless, the appearance of ubiquitous network and the network convergence technology has made a challenge to realize network security and adaptation. Aiming at these research problems, this paper proposes a decision-aided situation awareness mechanism based on multiscale dynamic trust from the perspective of time and space, which can recognize misbehaviors and regard social network as the research object. We build trust and satisfaction based on Ebbinghaus forgetting regular and spatial correlations. This mechanism carries out decision making assessment through trust authenticity test, logicality test, and feedback parameters. In addition, load balance is used to avoid resource congestion. Simulation analysis demonstrates that compared with other trust mechanisms, this mechanism proposed in this paper can recognize and handle entity attacks more effectively, which is relatively eclectic and realistic in aspect of trust mensuration.

The author has developed unique structural- functional model of information- psychological security (IPS), where turbulence phenomena development and usage is a great part. To explain the essence of «turbulence of thinking» and the ways of its formation from IPS point of view.«Turbulence of thinking» is a specific cognitive process, based on informal and heuristic approach to situational analysis and decision-making (experience, creativity, intuition, adroitness, inventiveness etc). Such way of thinking could be formed both by the way of focused actions from the state and civil society (informational culture formation, new type of educational space creation (so called «heuristic education»)) and by the way of personal self-improvement (lateral thinking, psychic energy management ability, definite personality aspects and behavioral strategies development).IPS threat because of various destructive turbulent phenomena is a very acute problem nowadays. There is need to find the ways of adequate reaction to this problem. Educational process changes to form corresponding informational cultural level for people, ability of heuristic thinking and, consequently, ability to stand effectively against various informational challenges and manipulative impacts are very necessary at present. The main personal protective mechanisms are informational security culture formation and informational self-defense ability development. Turbulence as a specific neuro-psychic phenomenon is an effective mechanism in the IPS structure and it has been formed by the means of actualization, special educational and self-educational personal procedures.

Full textAbstract:
The article explores the possible ways of managing ecological security of the city based on the use of economic methods and legal tools. It was determined that the urbanization has a negative impact on the environment. Therefore, it is necessary to make decisions on managing ecological security of the city. The management of city’s ecological security includes both functional (planning, organization, financing, coordination, control) and situational (decision-making to stabilize the environment in emergency and crisis situations) aspects. In this case, the corresponding economic methods and legal tools are used. They aim at motivating or forcing the economic entities to plan and finance environmental protection measures in the city. To do this, the methods of economic regulation (taxation, lending, subsidizing, provision of subsidies and benefits, imposition of fines) are used. The economic methods are included in the economic mechanism for managing the ecological security of the city. This mechanism is connected with the legal mechanism for regulating environmental protection activities in the city. The legal mechanism includes legal tools (legislative acts, industry regulations, decisions and orders made by local authorities) for managing environmental security. The choice of economic methods and legal tools depends much on internal and external factors, principles of distribution of responsibility for caused environmental damage, the need to coordinate the interests of the process actors with the management of ecological security of the city. To promote environmental safety in the city the environmental projects, environmental cooperation, and environmental entrepreneurship are of great importance. Their implementation and development are carried out using the economic methods and legal tools. At the same time, both the environmental assessment of projects and the assessment of social consequences of the decisions are made. Besides, the changes in the economic and legal regulation of economically safe development of the city also should be justified on economic grounds. The most important condition for this is the coherence of economic methods and legal tools. This coherence is possible due to the availability of information support, the development of which should become the subject of further research.

Full textAbstract:
Unsafe acts are a primary cause of maritime accidents, but timely reminders can evaluate improper behavior and provide alerts to prompt correction. This paper investigates whether timely reminders can discourage unsafe acts. First, data in relation to participants’ unsafe acts according to different psychological frames were collected on the basis of an experiment conducted on a navigation simulator. The effects of timely reminders on unsafe acts were then analyzed through the independent-samples Kruskal–Wallis test and regression analysis. The results demonstrate that the introduction of timely reminders could significantly reduce the number of unsafe acts committed by crew members during voyages. Moreover, the framing effect influenced the intervention results; under less stressful conditions, a timely reminder with the gain frame more effectively discourages unsafe acts than does a reminder with the loss frame. By contrast, under more stressful conditions, the loss frame exhibits advantages over the gain frame with respect to sending timely reminders to reduce the occurrence of unsafe acts. Compared with novices, experienced seafarers are less sensitive to the effects of timely reminders in the process of ship operation, whether with the gain frame or loss frame. After the three major challenges of functional subdivision, situational complexity, and mechanism robustness are discussed, two suggestions are proposed: an integrated system for automatically detecting unsafe acts that sends out corresponding timely reminders and an onboard organizational management mechanism.

Full textAbstract:
Traditional foods that First Nations peoples harvest or gather from the land remain critically important for achieving and sustaining food security for many communities. In Canada’s North, land claim agreements include provisions for First Nations to participate in the governance of their traditional territories, including the co-management of important traditional (wild-harvested) food species. Because such agreements only specify the broad contours of co-management governance, their actual functioning evolves out of a complex interplay among the co-managing organizations over the course of time. This paper aims to deepen our understanding of how First Nations communities can enhance food security as participants in co-management. Our study connects research on food security with research on co-management and is the first to analyze how First Nations can improve their food security by influencing decision-making that affects traditional foods through co-management arrangements. Following a succinct review of the Indigenous food security and co-management literatures, we analyze the experiences of Kluane First Nation in enhancing community food security through the co-management of its traditional territory with Yukon Government and Parks Canada, interpreting the data in light of the theories and evidences offered by research on co-management. The analysis of data collected from semi-structured interviews and from First Nations and government resources shows that, while the co-management system is imperfect, it does offer a mechanism through which First Nations can exert influence on decisions that affect their food security. The three key themes emerging from the excerpts confirm the importance of co-management as an evolutionary and long-term process, in which trust- and relationship-building are ongoing activities that are fundamental to beneficial collaboration involving the sharing of information and power. The analysis also highlights the role of context, or situational factors, in facilitating or hindering collaboration.

Full textAbstract:
The increasing volume of construction financing, dictated by the national development goals of the Russian Federation, determines the increased role of rational choice of methods, mechanisms and tools of financial support for construction in order to make managerial decisions on the implementation of projects aimed at achieving the targets within the declared national development benchmarks of the Russian Federation. The aim of the study is to summarise and simplify the current methods, mechanisms and tools of financial support for construction within the framework of project implementation. A review of the current model of financial support for construction in the Russian Federation has been carried out. The main aspects of how to finance construction have been considered. A brief description of the main conditions of the envisaged mechanisms and instruments of financial support for construction has been provided. The analysis confirms the positive trend of the current construction financing model in the project implementation, creating conditions to stimulate the economy by reallocating funds to the real sector and providing a variety of tools in choosing construction financing methods to make rational management decisions on project implementation. The results of this study can be used by public authorities involved in the allocation and use of funds, financial institutions and other stakeholders to prepare management decisions on construction financing in project implementation.

Journal of Leadership & Organizational Studies 26, no. 1 (April 4, 2018): 73–86. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/1548051818767391.
Full textAbstract:
Abusive supervision (perceived enduring hostile verbal and nonverbal behavior) results in a host of detrimental consequences for the individual subordinate and for the organization. In the current research, we tested whether abusive supervision relates negatively to beneficial extra-role behaviors of subordinates (individual-directed and organization-directed citizenship behaviors; OCBI and OCBO) and positively to deviant extra-role behaviors of subordinates (individual-directed and organization-directed counterproductive work behavior; CWBI and CWBO). Moreover, reasoning from a resource perspective, we examined whether subordinates’ psychological capital (PsyCap: hope, resilience, self-efficacy, and optimism) mediates these relations. PsyCap is a resource variable that is amenable to situational influences such as leadership. This makes PsyCap align with a theoretically viable, but previously not explicitly tested, mechanism underlying the effects of abusive supervision. We conducted a time-lagged, multisource study among 408 university faculty members. Abusive supervision and PsyCap were measured at Time 1 from focal participants. At Time 2, data for OCBs were collected from their supervisors and data for CWBs were collected from their peers. Results indicate that PsyCap mediated the relations between abusive supervision and OCBI, OCBO, CWBI, and CWBO. Shedding light on this process helps researchers and practitioners develop ways in which to mitigate the consequences of abusive supervision, for example, by seeking to develop PsyCap using different resources.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the instrumental use of social capital regarding career growth within an organization, focusing on the mediating role of perceived competence mobilization and the moderating role of two situational variables: perceived external prestige and job insecurity climate. Design/methodology/approach Relationships among the constructs are predicted based on relevant literature, and are tested using survey results from 324 employees working in 14 leading corporations in Korea. Findings Results show that social capital positively influenced, via perceived competence mobilization, each of two career growth dimensions (i.e. the personal efforts to develop a career and the experience of being rewarded by the organization). In contrast, moderated path analysis indicated that perceptions of external prestige and job insecurity climate failed to moderate the indirect effect of social capital on career growth. Practical implications In light of the instrumental use of social capital and the ensuring mechanism of competence mobilization, a detailed understanding of this effect on career growth cannot only neutralize the fears of brain drain, but is also helpful in providing possibilities for building new career development strategies. Originality/value Although social capital has become an influential concept in social sciences, little evidence has been presented on the above relationship, particularly from the perspective of careerist orientation. This may be the first research examining how and when the influence of social capital becomes instrumental with respect to career attainment within an organization.
