This dissertation comprises three essays. In the first essay, I develop a contingent-claims model to investigate the impact of managerial entrenchment on corporate policies and security valuation. The model emphasizes the role that managerial agency issues play in determining both a firm's dividend payout and capital structure. I show quantitatively that self-interested managers' leverage choices deviate from those ex ante maximize firm values. The results suggest that dividend yields are negatively affected by both leverage ratios and managerial entrenchment. They provide implications for empirical research attempting to relate dividend policy to capital structure. In addition, the model offers a new framework to measure managerial entrenchment using observed leverage and dividend payout.
In the second essay, we use a set of structural models to evaluate the price of default protection for a sample of US corporations. In contrast to previous evidence from corporate bond data, CDS premia are not systematically underestimated. In fact, one of our studied models has little difficulty on average in predicting their level. For robustness, we perform the same exercise for bond spreads by the same issuers on the same trading date. As expected, bond spreads relative to the Treasury curve are systematically underestimated, consistent with their being driven by significant non-default components. This is not the case when the swap curve is used as a benchmark, suggesting that previously documented underestimation results may be sensitive to the choice of risk free rate.
In the third essay, we develop a valuation model that simultaneously captures credit risk and interest rate risk, and apply it to study the valuation of putable corporate bonds. We ask what risks put features provide insurance against in practice - credit risk, liquidity risk or interest rate risk - and to what degree? We find that they reduce the components of all three risks in bond spreads. The most important, perhaps surprisingly is default or spread risk, followed by term structure risk. The reduction in the liquidity component is present but rather small.

The recent accounting scandals, characterised by the Enron affair, have not been confined to the U.S.A., but have been a worldwide phenomenon, embracing Taiwan. Most of them have involved dysfunctional behaviour incorporating earnings management. The factors which encourage earnings management decisions and the subsequent outcomes provide the motivation for this study. The study examines accountants’ earnings management behaviour in quoted firms in Taiwan, and addresses a primary issue: what are the factors which affect accountants’ ethical decision making in an earnings management context? The following subsidiary research questions were examined. (1) Does a firm’s ethical work climate affect earnings management decision making? (2) Do individual characteristics affect earnings management decision making? (3) Does moral intensity of ethical issue affect earnings management decision making?

Il progetto di ricerca riguarda le decisioni di disinvestimento ed il coinvolgimento del management di livello intermedio nelle iniziative di disinvestimento. L’obiettivo principale è quello di comprendere il processo decisionale sottostante alle decisioni di disinvestimento nelle grandi aziende multinazionali, con particolare attenzione agli asset di business. I manager di livello intermedio sono chiamati spesso a valutare gli asset di business e scegliere quali tenere e quali vendere, nell’ambito del portafoglio di asset detenuti da un’azienda. Utilizzando il framework di dynamic capabilities, ai fini della presente ricerca, abbiamo adottato una metodologia mista, che ci ha permesso di raccogliere le prime evidenze da un case study, tornare alla letteratura di management per una review di quanto scritto in precedenza e costruire la sezione più innovativa di questo lavoro, ossia l’esperimento di policy capturing. Tramite delle interviste fatte a manager di livello intermedio in una multinazionale europea, sono state individuate quattro prospettive teoriche che possono spiegare i determinati che hanno portato alla dismissione di un asset, ossia real option theory, transaction cost economics, resource-based view e new institutionalism. Il gap di ricerca è stato individuato nel fatto che gli studi condotti in precedenza si sono focalizzati principalmente sul disinvestimento di business unit o filiali e hanno basato le analisi prevalentemente su dati secondari. L’esperimento di policy capturing è stato usato per catturare quali fattori realmente influenzano le valutazioni dei manager di livello intermedio nel momento in cui sono chiamati a valutare la dismissione di asset di business. Il nostro obiettivo è quello di sviluppare e testare un framework teorico derivante da un fenomeno osservato, che origina dalla pratica manageriale. L’interesse è stato guidato principalmente da un gap percepito tra la teoria e la pratica in merito alle decisioni di disinvestimento e l’impressione che quanto saggiamente descritto nei libri di management non sia diffusamente utilizzato nella pratica.
This research project addresses divestment decisions and the involvement of middle management in divestiture initiatives. The main goal is to understand the practice of divestment decision-making in multinational multibusiness corporations, with a focus on the divestment of business unit assets. Middle managers are routinely asked to assess business unit assets and choose the ones to keep and the ones to be divested within the firm’s portfolio of assets. Within the dynamic capabilities framework, as for the purpose of this research project, we adopted a mixed methodology that allowed us collect useful insights from a case study, go back to the management literature for a structured review and open up the way to the most innovative section of this work, the policy capturing experiment. Middle managers inside a European multinational corporation were interviewed, providing evidence for four main theoretical lenses that can explain determinants related to asset divestment decisions, namely real option theory, transaction cost economics, resource-based view and new institutionalism. A clear research gap was identified as a consequence of the major focus of prior research on business unit or subsidiary divestments and the predominant use of secondary data. The policy capturing instrument, drawing from the four theoretical lenses, is used to capture which factors influence middle managers assessment of the divestment of business unit assets. Our intent is to develop and test a theoretical framework about an existing phenomenon, originating from the management practice. This interest was mainly driven by a perceived gap between theory and practice about divestment decisions and by the belief that the conventional wisdom of management textbooks is not widely used in practice.

In the current global market, knowledge is viewed as a source of competitive advantage. In particular, it has become a crucial factor for Multinational Corporations (MNCs). MNCs are searching for appropriate ways to manage and use their knowledge effectively and efficiently. Their challenge is how to facilitate the sharing of knowledge and maximise the value from all available knowledge assets. In response to this, MNCs use Knowledge Management Systems (KMSs) for sharing, utilising and integrating knowledge as well as supporting Decision-making Processes. Therefore, the primary concern of this research is to examine knowledge sharing by using KMSs to support decision-making processes in MNCs. The study extends the existing literature on KMSs, knowledge sharing, and decision-making processes by proposing and empirically testing a new conceptual model in MNCs. For this purpose, a mixed-methods approach has been designed, combining semi-structured interviews and a questionnaire to collect data from MNCs participants from Europe and the Middle-East. In the first phase of this study, 42 semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants from 32 different MNCs in 12 countries to explore the main factors affecting knowledge sharing by using KMSs to support decision-making processes. A conceptual framework comprising four core dimensions was developed using thematic analysis. In the first dimension, Knowledge Management Systems, three themes were identified: technology acceptance, communication tools, and KMSs usage. In the second dimension, Knowledge Sharing Practices, the three themes were: content, willingness to share, and external factors. In Culture, the themes were: national culture, organisational culture, and information technology culture. In the fourth dimension, Decision-making Processes, extent of analysis and speed of decision-making were identified. This study went a step further than merely identifying the factors that affect KS. A conceptual model and twelve hypotheses were developed based on the findings of the thematic analysis, literature review, and the research objectives. The new model comprises seven constructs: organisational culture, perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness of using KMSs, KMSs usage, knowledge sharing, decision-making processes and organisational effectiveness. A survey was conducted to collect data on participants’ perceptions to test the model. Responses from 221 KMSs users were analysed. Structural equation modelling was conducted to test the hypothesised relationships. The results revealed that all hypotheses are statistically significant. KMSs usage and organisational culture have a positive and significant impact on knowledge sharing, with organisational culture having the largest impact. KMSs usage, knowledge sharing and organisational culture have a significant effect on decision-making processes; knowledge sharing has the biggest impact, followed by KMSs usage, and a marginally positive impact of organisational culture. Moreover, perceived ease of use has a strong and positive significant impact on the perceived usefulness of KMSs. Perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and organisational culture have a positive and significant effect on KMSs usage, with organisational culture having the largest impact. Finally, organisational culture, decision-making processes and perceived usefulness have a positive and significant impact on organisational effectiveness, but decision-making processes have the biggest impact. This study has practical implications for different stakeholders in MNCs, including managers, decision makers, KMSs designers, IT specialists, and consultants, in linking KMSs usage and knowledge sharing with decision-making processes and organisational effectiveness, and by focusing on organisational culture in knowledge management.

Thesis (MPhil)--University of Stellenbosch, 2003.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The historical development of the role of directors in public listed companies contains inherent tensions by reference to the fiduciary responsibility of directors and the method in which directors are remunerated. The nature of incentive based remuneration is such that it will compel directors, in certain circumstances, to weigh their interests against those towards whom they owe a duty of care and a moral responsibility to act with prudence and temperance. The modem day corporate environment is complex and calls for directors with strong ethical views. This assignment endeavours to identify some of the complexities that contribute towards directors finding it difficult to stay on the ethical "straight and narrow" and attempts to weigh the effect of those factors against the effect of incentive remuneration, both as detractors from ethical behaviour. Both the shareholder supremacy business model and the stakeholder approach are analysed to identify those factors present in each that may add to the ethical complexity that directors have to deal with. The advent of the stakeholder approach in particular, adds an enormous amount of complexity. The case studies deal with two South African financial services companies that have both ceased trading as a consequence of unethical behaviour. The incentive remuneration models of both companies have been found to have played a major contributing role in the decision making processes in the companies, and have contributed to the demise of these organisations. Lessons are taken from the case studies and applied against the backdrop of the various principles of ethical behaviour namely rights, utility, justice and the ethics of responsibility. The finding of this study is that there is a role for incentive remuneration of directors, provided that the ethical pitfalls that this causes are recognised and steps taken to address them. Some of these steps are identified.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die historiese ontwikkeling van die direkteursrol, en spesifiek van openbare genoteerde maatskappye bevat inherente teenstrydighede met verwysmg na direkteursvergoeding en die vertrouensverpligtinge wat op direkteure rus. Die aard van direkteursvergoeding met 'n aansporingskomponent is so dat dit 'n direkteur van tyd tot tyd in 'n posisie plaas waar hy tussen sy eie belange en die van die ander belanghebbendes in 'n maatskappy, aan wie hy dit verskuldig is om met verdrag en versigtig op te tree, moet kies. Die hedendaagse maatskappyomgewing is kompleks van aard, en vereis direkteure met sterk etiese oortuigings. Hierdie werkstuk poog om sommige van die komplekse faktore wat afbreuk doen aan 'n direkteur se vermoe om ten alle tye streng eties op te tree, te identifiseer en op te weeg teen die effek wat direkteursvergoeding speel - beide as items wat afbreuk doen aan etiese optrede. Hier word ondersoek ingestel na beide die sogenaamde "aandeelhouersmodel" asook die" belanghebbende" model waarvolgens besigheid bedryf word. Die ontsluimering van die belanghebbende model veroorsaak spesifiek 'n aansienlike hoeveelheid etiese kompleksiteit. Die gevallestudies behandel twee Suid Afrikaanse fmansiele instellings wat hul bedrywighede gestaak het as gevolg van onetiese optrede deur direkteure. Die aansporingskomponent van die vergoedingsrnodelle in daardie maatskappye blyk 'n groot bydraende faktor te wees in die onetiese besluitneming wat plaasgevind het, en wat uiteindelik tot die ondergang van die ondernemings gelei het. Laastens, word die lesse wat geleer is uit die gevallestudies, toegepas in gewysigde format, en getoets aan die hand van die verskillende beginsels wat etiese besluitneming onderhou, naamlik die beginsels van regte, regverdigheid, utiliteit en die beginsel van etiese verantwoordelikheid. Daar word tot die slotsom gekom dat daar wel ruimte vir aansporingskemas vir direkteure is, maar dat dit slegs eties regverdigbaar sal wees mits ag geslaan word op die lesse wat uit die gevallestudie voortspruit, tesame met die impementering van sekere korrektiewe maatstawwe.

Study project (MBA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2003.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study examines the role of the board of directors of private and public companies. The focus is on "directing" (and not managing) - in view of the policy and strategic dimensions of boardroom activities. The second step focuses on the sustainability issue - the what and why of this important core governance value. A modem board is responsible for business strategy development and ensuring that a strategic planning process is in place, is used, and produces sound choices. The board must monitor the implementation of current strategic initiatives to assess whether they are on schedule, on budget, and producing effective results. Second King Report on Corporate Governance for South Africa (King II) has lately amended these responsibilities to include recommendations on minimum practices that should be adopted by corporations in relation to their corporate governance practices, as well as sustainability management and reporting. King II follows the worldwide trend of "triple-bottom-line", whose approach is recognising that the company has to consider stakeholders when formulating strategies. As part of building a case for the consideration of sustainability, cost savings could be the primary motivator (if nothing else) for making a business case for sustainable development. Businesses can reduce costs by making environmental improvements that deliver an immediate impact on the financial bottom line. They can also reduce financial, reputation and political risks by engaging with stakeholders. Understanding the concerns and interests of employees, customers, Non-governmental organisations (NGO's), politicians and business partners helps a company to manage environmental and social expectations better, resulting in reduced risk of civil action or brand assassination, improved access to capital and insurance, cost savings and reduced vulnerability to regulatory changes. Another view is that of avoiding a strategic disadvantage, where if firms do not respond to environmental opportunities, and their competitors do, they risk placing themselves at a competitive disadvantage. Governance, simply defined, is "the process of decision-making and the process by which decisions are implemented. If governance is about transparency and looking after shareholder value, and sustainability is about ensuring long-term success, then sustainability is the core part of governance. Managing this equilibrium is an integral aspect of good governance and a major challenge for any board. It will be achieved only where there is active engagement with all stakeholders and where proper attention is paid to health, safety and environmental issues - board of directors is accountable for addressing these challenges. The board should also ensure that its sustainability responsibilities are properly delegated and that strategies and policies are implemented through the effective use of a board representative for sustainability, a dedicated board committee for sustainability, and senior management. The consideration of sustainability issues by directors can reveal new opportunities for the company. Ignoring these opportunities could weaken its competitive position. In addition, if sustain ability issues are not considered, both the company and its directors may be held liable for failing to act with due diligence. The board must be aware of the corporation's liabilities caused by its sustainability obligations over the life cycle of its activities, products and services, and the necessary financial provision for such liabilities must be made and communicated to stakeholders. Directors must be aware of the sustainability threats, and take steps to safeguard the organisation - it is a matter of risk management. It is also a matter of investment, not cost. Like any investment, companies must find the resources and assess the paybacks. But there are many cases where the paybacks have been swift and substantial, and it has been shown that addressing these issues is more likely to help companies identify cost reductions than add to their costs. A number of leading South African companies, for example Anglo American, BlIP Billiton, Eskom, Sasol, and South African Breweries - have begun to drive the sustainability agenda within the local business community. Two case studies (Sasol and Nestle) of companies that are making sustainable development a core part of their governance role are presented. Recommendations naturally do not guarantee safety against failure, but a board can begin with changes that, taken together, will provide a better early-warning system against failure: 1. Reengineer the board. 2. Monitoring and evaluation by the board. 3. Introduce a Sustainability Board Committee This work has illustrated that by having appropriate standards of governance the long-term performance is raised and total shareholder return is enhanced.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie ondersoek die rol van die direksie van publieke en private maatskappye. Dit fokus op die "leiding" (en nie die bestuur) - in die lig van die beleid en strategie aspekte van die raadsaal aktiviteite. Die tweede deel fokus op die volhoubaarheid kwessie - die wat en waarom van hierdie belangrike bestuurswaarde. 'n Moderne direksie is verantwoordelik vir die ontwikkeling van die besigheidstrategie en die versekering dat 'n strategiese beplanningsproses in plek is, funksioneer en lei tot die regte besluite. Die direksie moet die implementering van die strategie monitor om te verseker dat die resultate beriek word, op skedule is en binne die begroting is. Die tweede King-verslag oor korporatiewe beheer in Suid-Afrika (King II) het die verantwoordelikhede verander deur aanbevelings in te sluit oor die minimum prosedures wat maatskaapye moet instel rakende korporatiewe beheer, asook volhoubaarheidsbestuur en verslagdoening. King (II) volg die wereld-wye tendens van "triple-bottom-line", wat beteken dat die maatskaapy sy verantwoordelikheid teenoor belanghebenes in ag neem tydens die formulering van strategie. Kostebesparings is waarskynilik die belangrikste motivering vir die inagneming van volhoubaarheid. Die maatskappy kan kostes bespaar deur omgewingsverbeterings aan te bring wat onmiddelik 'n effek op die netto wins sal he. Maatskappye kan ook finansiele-, reputasie- en politieke risiko verminder deur met die belanghebendes saam te werk. Deur die bekommernisse en belange van werknemers, kliente, nie-regerings organisasies, politiekusse en besigheidsvennote te verstaan, help 'n maatskappy om die omgewings en sosiale verwagtinge beter te bestuur. Dit sal lei tot die vermindering van die risiko vir siviele aksies, 'n verbetering in die toegang tot kapitaal en versekering, kostebesparings en 'n vermindering in die kwesbaarheid as gevolg van vernaderinge in regulasies. 'n Ander oorweging is die vermeiding van 'n strategiese nadeel. Deur nie te reageer op omgewings geleenthede nie, terwyl die kompitisie dit wel doen, kan lei tot 'n kompiterende nadeel. Korporatiewe beheer is die proses van besluitneming en die proses waardeur besluite geimplementeer word. Indien korporatiewe beheer gaan oor die deursigtigheid van besluite en die bevordering van aandeelhouerswelvaart, en volhoubaarheid gaan oor die versekering van lantermyn sukses, dan is volhoubaarheid die kern van korporatiewe beheer. Die handhawing van 'n balans tussen die twee aspekte is 'n integrale deel van korporatiewe beheer en 'n uitdaging vir die direksie. Dit sal slegs behaal word indien daar aktiewe deelname is van alle belanghebbendes en die nodige aandag gegee word aan gesondheids-, veiligheids- en omgewingsake. Die direksie is verantwoordelik vir hierdie uitdagings. Die direksie moet ook verseker dat die volhoubaarheids verantwoordelikhede behoorlik gedelegeer word en dat die strategie en beleid geimplementeer word deur die effektiewe gebruik van 'n direksie verteenwoordiger vir volhoubaarheid, 'n direksie komittee vir volhoubaarheid en senior bestuur. Die inagneming van volhoubaarheids aspekte deur direkteure kan lei tot nuwe geleenthede vir die maatskappy. Deur die geleenthede te ignoreer kan die maatskappy se kompeterende posisie beinvloed. Die maatskappy en sy direkteure kan ook verantwoordelik gehou word deur nie met die nodige sorg op te tree nie. Die direksie moet bewus wees van die maatskappy se verpligtinge, as gevolg van die volhoubaarheids verantwoordelikhede, oor die lewenstydperk van sy aktiwiteite, produkte en dienste en die nodige voorsiening maak vir die finansiele laste en dit kommunikeer aan alle belanghebbendes. Die direkteure moet ook bewus wees van dit wat volhoubaarheid kan bedreig en die nodige stappe neem om die maatskappy te beskerm - 'n kwessie van risikobestuur. Dit is ook eerder 'n belegging, as 'n koste. Soos met enige belegging, moet die maatskappy die nodige bronne vind en die opbrengs oorweeg. Daar is verskeie gevalle waar die opbrengs vinnig en wesenlik was en dit is bewys dat deur hierdie aspekte aan te spreek, dit lei tot koste besparings en nie tot additionele kostes nie. Verskeie Suid-Afrikaanse maatkappye, soos Anglo American, BBP Billiton, Eskom, Sasol en SAB het begin om die volhoubaarheidsproses uit te rol in die besigheidsgemeenskap. Twee studies (Sasol en Nestle) oor maatskappye wat volhoubaarheidsontwikkeling natreef as deel van hulle korporatiewe beheer, word aangebied. Aanbevelings is natuurlik nie 'n versekering teen ondergang nie, maar direksies kan begin met veranderinge wat tesame sal lei tot 'n vroee waarskuwing stelsel: 1. Hersamestelling van die direksie; 2. Monitering en evaluering van die direksie; 3. Samestelling van 'n Volhoubaarheids Kommitee Die studie het bewys dat, deur nodige standaarde en beheer, die langtermyn verdienstes verhoog en aandeelhouerswelvaart bevorder word.

The effect of a change in capital structure on the risk and return of common stockholders is investigated. Also, the information content of dividends when a firm goes for new outside financing is examined. Data used in the study are collected from the Moody's Bond Survey, the Prentice Hall's Capital Adjustments, the Wall Street Journal Index, and the Center for Research in Security Prices Tape. The study uses an event study methodology. The risk (beta) of common stock before an issuance of debt securities is compared with the risk after the issue. The stock market reaction to the issuance of new debt securities is measured using after-the-event risk. The information content of dividend announcement before a new debt issue is compared to that of after the issue. The findings show that debt issue reduces stock holders' risk if the issuer is a dividend paying company. Also, debt securities issued through an exchange offer increase stockholders' wealth. Finally, issuance of new debt does not affect the information content of dividends.

This study investigates the causes and consequences of acquisitions primarily foreign acquisitions undertaken by UK publicly listed firms. Firm- and country-specific factors are found to influence the propensity to acquire and the location of the acquired subsidiary. Indicators of a firm's organisational experience, such as firm size, profitability, and its investment history, increase the probability that an acquisition (relative to no acquisition) is undertaken. Larger and more profitable firms are also more inclined to invest abroad (rather than at home), as are firms engaged in RandD activities. In choosing among foreign locations, an increase in country-specific uncertainty (proxied by exchange rate and stock market volatility) deters a firm from investing in that location. Likewise, at the firm level, uncertainty is found to discourage a firm from acquiring (relative to not acquiring), and to deter an acquirer from undertaking a foreign (relative to a domestic) acquisition. Based on changes in industry-adjusted profit levels, acquiring firms in general perform poorly after making large foreign acquisitions. However, examining profit variability reveals interestingly that firms more likely to experience a decline in profit levels are also more likely to enjoy a reduction in profit variability, and vice versa, which suggests that a risk-return tradeoff could be a consideration when acquisitions are undertaken. When acquisition performance is evaluated on the basis of a firm's share price response to its acquisition announcement, the event study shows no evidence of negative performance. Resolving this discrepancy between the two performance measures leads us to examine the reliability of the stock market as an indicator of acquisition outcomes. On the one hand the immediate stock market reaction has some ability to predict a firm's postacquisition performance, while on the other post-acquisition stock returns are shown to be not completely consistent with market efficiency.

Selected accounting studies and selected parts of communication theory are used to argue the case for treating an SCF as a primary financial statement. Ideas adapted from communication theory are also used to decide key issues involved in developing an SCF. Specifically, the study selects a direct rather than a reconciling format for an SCF; it also defines cash to include currency, bank accounts, and marketable securities and exclude claims to cash such as notes and accounts receivable. The definition of cash limits cash flow to strict receipts and disbursements; it excludes constructive receipts and disbursements.

La presente investigación tiene el propósito de explicar si el liderazgo vertical y el liderazgo compartido coexisten en la empresa corporativa en la actualidad, puesto que, de acuerdo al contexto, puede predominar uno u otro liderazgo en el proceso de toma de decisiones. Para ello, se llevó a cabo un estudio cualitativo de treinta artículos científicos para analizar y diferenciar las posturas de los autores que han estudiado la evolución del liderazgo según el crecimiento de las organizaciones. El desarrollo de la investigación, principalmente comprende: la evolución y conceptualización de los liderazgos vertical y compartido; y el grado de su aplicación en las organizaciones según los enfoques mas relevantes. El tema del liderazgo compartido adquirió mayor importancia en los últimos veinte años, a raíz del cambio en las formas de conducción y gestión de las empresas. Tradicionalmente, el liderazgo vertical se define como un liderazgo jerárquico de arriba hacia abajo, donde el líder formal conduce al equipo. A diferencia de este, el liderazgo compartido surge entre los miembros del equipo, los cuales interiorizan la misión y visión de la organización y se apoyan para lograr el propósito común. Este liderazgo se consolida con la formación de organizaciones más horizontales. A partir de la investigación, se concluye que el uso del liderazgo vertical permite que el líder formal defina los objetivos de la organización y el diseño del equipo. Por su parte, el liderazgo compartido impulsa al equipo en el diseño de las estrategias, lo que le otorga una voz activa dentro de la toma de decisiones. Como una limitación a la presente investigación, no se ha explicado el desarrollo del liderazgo en las empresas de la región de Sudamérica, ya que, en la última década, están expandiéndose grupos empresariales locales hacia otros continentes. Así mismo, podría iniciarse estudios de otros tipos de liderazgo nacientes en esta región. La investigación tiene implicancias para las empresas actuales, puesto que va a contribuir en el conocimiento sobre los principales aspectos del liderazgo compartido y vertical. Asimismo, va a aportar en el análisis para la aplicación del tipo de liderazgo más conveniente de acuerdo al contexto y la futura implementación con el objeto de resultados sostenibles.
The present research aims to explain whether vertical leadership and shared leadership coexist in the corporate company today, since, according to the context, one or the other leadership may predominate in the decision-making process. To this end, a qualitative study of thirty scientific articles was carried out to analyze and differentiate the positions of the authors who have studied the evolution of leadership according to the growth of organizations. The development of the research mainly includes: the evolution and conceptualization of vertical and shared leadership; and the degree of its application in organizations according to the most relevant approaches. The issue of shared leadership has acquired greater importance in the last twenty years, as a result of the change in the ways of conducting and managing companies. Traditionally, vertical leadership is defined as top-down hierarchical leadership, where the formal leader leads the team. Unlike this, shared leadership arises among team members, who internalize the mission and vision of the organization and support each other to achieve the common purpose. This leadership is consolidated with the formation of more horizontal organizations. The research concludes that the use of vertical leadership allows the formal leader to define the goals of the organization and team design; and then shared leadership drives the team in the design of strategies by giving it an active voice in decision-making. As a limitation to this research, the development of leadership in companies in the South American region has not been explained, since in the last decade local business groups are expanding to other continents. Likewise, studies of other types of emerging leadership in this region could also be initiated. The research has implications for current companies, since it will contribute to the knowledge about the main aspects of shared and vertical leadership, as well as the analysis for the application of the most suitable type of leadership in its context and its future implementation with the object of sustainable results.

The modern automobile is a complex electromechanical system controlled by control systems which consist of several interdependent electronic control units (ECUs). Analysis of the data generated by these modules is very important in order to observe the interesting patterns among data. At Volvo Cars Corporation today, diagnostic read-out data is retrieved from client machines installed at workshops in different countries around the world. The problem with this data is that it does not show a clear picture as what is causing what i.e. tracking the problem. Diagnostic engineers at Volvo Cars Corporation perform routine based statistical analysis of diagnostic read-out data manually, which is time consuming and tedious work. Moreover, this analysis is restricted to basic level mainly statistical analysis of diagnostic readout data. We present an approach based on statistical analysis and cluster analysis. Our approach focused on analysing the data from a pure statistical stand-point to isolate the problem in diagnostic read-out data, thereby helping to visualize and analyse the nature of the problem at hand. Different general statistical formulae were applied to get meaningful information from large amount of DRO data. Cluster analysis was carried out to get clusters consisting of similar trouble codes. Different methods and techniques were considered for the purpose of cluster analysis. Hierarchical and non-hierarchical clusters were extracted by applying appropriate algorithms. The results obtained from the thesis work show that the diagnostic read-out data consist of independent and interdependent fault codes. Groups were generated which consist of similar trouble codes. Furthermore, corresponding factors from freeze frame data which shows significant variation for these groups were also extracted. These faults, groups of faults and factors were later interpreted and validated by diagnostic engineers.

Many studies have analyzed the capital structure of companies and how to best fund their activities, whether through equity or third-party capital. Most of the papers is devoted to identifying its determinants or analyzing specific sectors. The present study aims to verify if the indebtedness of Brazilian companies changed during the 2008 financial crisis. For this purpose, a sample of 90 Brazilian companies listed on BM &FBovespa was analyzed by average test and linear regression (OLS) . The results indicated a significant increase in the level of gross debt in the period between the third quarter of 2008 and the fourth quarter of 2009 and a significant increase in net debt in the period between the third quarter of 2008 and the second quarter of 2009.

Both tourism destination marketing and the characteristics of holiday travellers have recently undergone radical changes driven by the rapid progress of computer technology. In particular, the advent of the Internet has had a great impact on holiday travellers as well as on the development of tourism promotion and distribution channel strategies. While holiday travellers benefit from the characteristics of Internet use, for example, unlimited information retrieval, flexible accessibility, and direct interactivity with destination marketing organizations (DMOs), the Internet provides DMOs with the critical factor of an increase in operational costs incurred by running all possible online promotional activities and online distribution channels. This paper attempted to discover which Internet functions are popularly used by existing/potential online travellers or which ones are not by testing the Canberra Tourism & Event Corporation (CTEC) web site. As a result, this research intends to provide CTEC with a way to operate its website cost-effectively, which can also lead to increasing the usage satisfaction of CTEC web visitors. Online travellers visiting the CTEC website were surveyed through non-probability self-selected web survey by using segmentation procedure; two key online travel groups: direct and indirect online access groups. Based on the research methodology, this study has discovered several findings. Firstly, CTEC web visitors preferred to use the CTEC website for the purpose of gathering travel information rather than that of online booking or reservations for travel products on the CTEC website. Secondly, comprehensive travel information tailor-made to online individuals was found to be desirable through interactive online activities, while the multimedia, booking, and comparability function were not significant in helping the CTEC online visitors choose the travel destination. Based on their preferences for particular Internet functions, it is evident that web visitors wish to have comprehensive and tailormade online travel information and interaction with the CTEC. Finally, it was revealed that the demographics of the CTEC web visitors were very similar to Internet users identified by previous researchers. Therefore, this study provides insights into website development strategies.

O uso da Avaliação do Ciclo de Vida (ACV) permite identificar oportunidades de melhoria de desempenho ambiental, gerar aprendizagem sobre produtos e processos e apoiar decisões para alcançar vantagens competitivas. O processo de tomada de decisão baseado nos resultados da ACV envolve, além dos aspectos e impactos ambientais, outros critérios importantes para um processo decisório. Neste sentido, esta tese objetivou desenvolver um modelo multicritério para apoio à decisão baseado em avaliação de ciclo de vida e indicadores corporativos. O modelo desenvolvido possui caráter interativo, pode ser generalizado e foi validado utilizando dados de diferentes cenários do ciclo de vida da produção do painel MDF. O modelo avalia par a par as opções de cenários distintos e identifica a opção mais atrativa de acordo com um índice final. O índice final é composto por dimensões específicas, subdimensões e indicadores. A dimensão ambiental do modelo é baseada em ACV, a qual foi modelada no software Umberto e utilizou a base de dados Eco-Invent 2.2. Para a estrutura decisória do modelo e a construção de escalas cardinais foi utilizado o método MACBETH, através do software M-MACBETH. A validação do modelo ocorreu por meio da avaliação de três situações decisórias da produção do painel MDF (variações no processo produtivo, variações em parâmetros de processo e variações em espessura do produto). Os resultados apresentados contribuíram para avanços acadêmicos em construções de modelos de apoio à decisão baseados em ACV e multicritérios. Permitiram, ainda, interpretar e gerar aprendizados acerca do processo produtivo, do ciclo de vida do produto e da gestão da produção da indústria pesquisada. Neste sentido, concluiu-se que o modelo mostrou-se apto para apoiar e gerar aprendizagem em processos decisórios multicritérios baseados em ACV e em outros indicadores corporativos.
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) allows identify opportunities to improve environmental performance, providing knowledge about products and processes and supporting decision-making in order to achieve advantages. Decision-making based on LCA results involves, in addition to the environmental aspects and impacts, others important criteria. In this sense, this thesis aimed to develop a multi-criteria model for decision-making based on life cycle assessment and corporate indicators. The model developed has interactive nature and can be generalized. The model was validated using data for different scenarios of MDF panel production life cycle. The pairwise model evaluates the options for different scenarios and identifies the most attractive option in accordance with a final index. The final index is composed of specific, sub-dimensions and indicators. The environmental dimension is based on an LCA, which was modeled in Umberto software and used Eco-Invent 2.2 as database. For the model structure and construction of cardinal scale was used MACBETH method using M-MACBETH software. The model validation was made by evaluation of three decision-making scenarios in MDF panel production (changes in production processes, changes in process parameters and changes in product thickness variations). The results allowed to reach academic advances in order to support decision models structures based on LCA and multi-criteria. The results allowed interpreting and generating knowledge about production process, product life cycle and industrial management. In this sense, it is concluded that the model is able to support and generate knowledge on decision-making processes based on LCA and other corporate indicators.

The thesis addresses the role of national oil companies and their overseas engagement in the foreign policy decision-making process of states. Over the past 40 years, national oil companies have gained importance in the international oil industry and currently control around 90 per cent of the global oil reserves. A number of political and economic factors – depleting domestic reserves, economic growth – have resulted in an increasing expansion of Asian national oil companies to Africa. Through the use of two Asian national oil companies – Malaysia's Petronas and India's Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) – and their overseas engagement in Sudan and South Sudan as case studies, the thesis assesses three aspects: factors and motives that influence the relationship between government institutions and Petronas and ONGC, the connection between this domestic relationship and the overseas engagement of both companies, and the implications of the overseas engagement of Petronas and ONGC in both Sudans for the foreign policy decision-making process of Malaysia and India. This set of questions is analysed through a comparative case study design that is supported by in-depth interviews and based on Foreign Policy Analysis (FPA), proposing a four-level theoretical framework. This thesis thus seeks to demonstrate how FPA can help assess the connection between the domestic decision-making process and the international engagement of the companies. In doing so, it not only argues that process and engagement are in fact connected, but also critically addresses conventional assumptions about the overseas engagement of national oil companies. Furthermore, this thesis questions the idea that government institutions and national oil companies act in a coherent and coordinated manner when operating abroad.

AIMS OF THE RESEARCH: To explore the decision making processes of top management, CEO's and boards of directors - to gain ne~ insights into the causes of management decision failures, management risk and decision process weaknessess. To identify important factors that play a pivotal role in effective decision making in business situations. To draw up a frame~ork for effective decision making based on the correlations between decision theory and empirical findings amongst senior executives and board members. To find ways how management can minimize the risk of decision failure in complex problems, what questions they have to ask themselves about the way in which they make decisions, what decision risks they have to be aware of at each stage of the decision process and how they can gain from available decision theory. The aim is to improve the decision process to obtain better overall quality of decisions produced by kno~ledgeable senior managers and board members. This will provide a framework for effective third generation risk management. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF THE RESEARCH FINDINGS Board members and top executives rely on experience and personal knowledge to analyse complex problems and do not consciously involve concepts from decision theory (see section 8.5). They describe these phenomena in their organisations, but they have not formally done a decision process analysis to minimise decision risk. Current risk management practises in modern financial institutions focus mainly on risk classification techniques and structural mechanisms (see section 15) to control risks, with little or no attention to decision process dynamics. The Board of Directors and Top Management are generally very good at identifying corporate risks, economic risks and financial risks, but they have great difficulty in identifying internal decision process risks within the management hierarchy/system or amongst themselves. Introspective analysis of their own decision process dynamics can help to improve this. A step by step analysis of the decision process in the board and top management team as described in section 18.2 is proposed as a further contribution to improve the quality of decision making in financial institutions. Structural changes to boards like those introduced by Cadbury improved second generation risk management practices. This research proposes that further advances can be made by third generation risk management improvements in the decision process dynamics. We teach decision makers about economic and financial analysis and derivatives and risk management, but the fundamentals of decision science and the human decision process seem to be ignored. To prevent the financial failures that so often destroy shareholder value, we need to focus on decision science and financial decision process analysis Analysis of the decision process dynamics is proposed as a way to reduce the number of decision failures in large financial institutions and other organisations. By increasing the a~areness and kno~ledge of board members and top executives about the potential causes of decision failure, their own ability to identify and prevent these will be improved. New risk management structures and recent changes to board structures have contributed greatly to corporate governance but could not prevent many of the financial failures. Combining these structural improvements with an additional focus on decision process analysis can increase our ability to manage risk successfully.

This thesis presents a decision aiding system named C3-SEC (Contex-aware Corporative Cyber Security), developed in the context of a master program at Polytechnic Institute of Leiria, Portugal. The research dimension and the corresponding software development process that followed are presented and validated with an application scenario and case study performed at Universidad de las Fuerzas Armadas ESPE – Ecuador. C3-SEC is a decision aiding software intended to support cyber risks and cyber threats analysis of a corporative information and communications technological infrastructure. The resulting software product will help corporations Chief Information Security Officers (CISO) on cyber security risk analysis, decision-making and prevention measures for the infrastructure and information assets protection. The work is initially focused on the evaluation of the most popular and relevant tools available for risk assessment and decision making in the cyber security domain. Their properties, metrics and strategies are studied and their support for cyber security risk analysis, decision-making and prevention is assessed for the protection of organization's information assets. A contribution for cyber security experts decision support is then proposed by the means of reuse and integration of existing tools and C3-SEC software. C3-SEC extends existing tools features from the data collection and data analysis (perception) level to a full context-ware reference model. The software developed makes use of semantic level, ontology-based knowledge representation and inference supported by widely adopted standards, as well as cyber security standards (CVE, CPE, CVSS, etc.) and cyber security information data sources made available by international authorities, to share and exchange information in this domain. C3-SEC development follows a context-aware systems reference model addressing the perception, comprehension, projection and decision/action layers to create corporative scale cyber security situation awareness.

Taiwan is an export-orientation country. The frequency of international trade in Taiwan is quite high. So it increases the enterprise exchange rate risk that generate by holding foreign currency assets and liabilities. The import and export-oriented cor-porations will generate a huge amount of exchange gains and losses. So violation of exchange rate is one of the main reasons to affect the corporations’ earning. A lot of corporations will forecasts the trend of foreign exchange rate to reduce the exchange rate losses. This forecast can use as a reference value on corporations’ earnings management. First, we must predict the exchange rate and found a clear trend of the future exchange rate. Then chooses the advantageous transaction price, this deal will affect the exchange rate gains and losses. The purpose of this study is the deci-sion-making and impact on foreign exchange earnings forecasts to corporations’ earning management. For match humanity's thought in study method.

Abstract Although the study of business ethics has been lasting for quite a long time, it was always ignored owing to the high economic growth and boom in the past. However, because of the depression and more and more corporate malady in these years, this subject is wide-spreading discussed. In US and Europe advanced countries business ethics is getting mature and important while in Taiwan it is still not well promoted. Therefore, the problems about business ethics are unable to be terminated. To avoid similar problems happening continually, it is very imperative to advocate business ethics. This study focuses on banking industry and selects corporate banking professional to have more deeply analysis. It picks 20 banks and gets 144 of 243 effective samples. With the help of questionnaires, it could be understood whether the knowing about business ethics or other factors will cause any impact on corporate banking professional’s decision making. Through the cross-analysis about business ethics, ethics recognition, other factors and decision-making discrepancy, they are found: This study finds that: 1. The internal and external ethics of trading corporations will influence corporate banking professional’s decision-making. 2. The ethics recognition degree will affect corporate banking professional’s decision-making. 3. The external pressure will impact the decision-making discrepancy. 4. The dilemmatic situation will influence the decision-making discrepancy. It is therefore suggested that the corporation indeed implement business ethics and pay attention to the ethical responsibilities. The banking industry can try to educate corporate banking professional to improve their ethical recognition and diminish the external factors impacting on corporate banking professional’s decision-making. After that, the business ethics in Taiwan could be developed and promoted more steadily and mature in the future. Keywords: business ethics、ethical-cognitive、decision-making、decision-making gap

And we choice two different sample periods to confirm appositeness of decision making moment according to business cycle. The result finds that leader companies’ capital structure have influence followers posi-tively while business expansion. But the followers would influence leader compa-nies’ capital structure negatively while business recession. In other words, the followers will imitate debt policy from leader companies and leader companies would make decisions according to the followers in some special business situations. In addition, we find that growth opportunity between competitors will not influence firm’s policy by each other.

Many organisations today are still not making use of Management Accounting tools to assist in providing sustainability information for decision-making and the influence this can have on the financial performance of an organisation. This may have a negative impact on the financial performance of organisations, the result of the number of errors and miscalculations that can occur, including obsolete cost drivers; miscalculated business decisions, inaccurate information and human errors. Without applying Management Accounting tools, managers of organisations may find it difficult to improve the day-to-day operations and to take decisions to enhance the financial performance of their business. In this study, information was collected from interviews to determine whether Management Accounting tools could provide sustainability information for decision-making, and how this would influence the financial performance of an organisation. The research was carried out in organisations listed on the JSE. This study found that Management Accounting tools are important in providing sustainability information for decision-making and in determining how this information influences the financial performance of JSE listed organisations. Furthermore, Management Accounting tools provide strategies that influence decision-making and performance, although decision-making is the responsibility of executives or directors of the organisations. The study also found that Management Accounting tasks are performed by financial managers who focus solely on financial statements and reporting. Hence future research should focus on the importance of devolving Management Accounting roles to financial accountants or managers to enable the organisation to focus on different reports for different outcomes.

Decisions regarding foreign market entry and market entry mode are strategically important to multinational corporations (MNCs). Most previous studies have focused on the economic rationale behind these decisions and assumed that MNCs' decisions are rational and independent of their own and other MNCs' previous decisions.
In conclusion, the evidence noticeably refutes the claim that there is only an economic explanation for the decisions regarding foreign market entry and market entry mode, and demonstrates that organizational legitimacy, a social consideration, can play a key role in explaining an MNC's decision.
This thesis develops the neoinstitutional perspective of foreign direct investment strategy. The main proposition is that an MNC's decision regarding foreign market entry and subsidiary ownership level represents its desire to gain external and internal organizational legitimacy, and its decision is influenced by its own previous decisions and the previous decisions of other MNCs from the same home country. In the empirical setting of Japanese MNCs' foreign investments across the world over the period 1987--1999, I find supporting evidence for my main argument. First, other MNCs' entry into a market induces an MNC to enter the same market to gain external organizational legitimacy and an MNC's prior overseas establishments trigger its subsequent market entry to gain operational experience. Second, an MNC selects to trade a portion of its subsidiary ownership level for external and internal organizational legitimacy by forming an equity joint venture with local partners or industry incumbents. Third, in uncertain situations, an MNC mimics the prevalent, legitimate subsidiary ownership level strategy adopted by other MNCs in the same geographical region, and it is more prone to make a mimetic choice when its subsidiary is located in a less-developed country than in a developed country.

Abstract in English, Zulu and Afrikaans
The primary intent of this study was to develop a competitive intelligence (CI) programme implementation strategy framework for the effective use of CI in strategic decision-making (SDM) in a conglomerate, using embedded multiple units and a single-case exploratory study that is qualitative dominant. The study therefore explored the strategic value of CI for SDM in a company that has a conglomerate structure and whose subsidiaries are vertically integrated. Despite the perceived usefulness of CI for distinctive SDM, the case conglomerate and its subsidiaries had collected and employed the available CI products to support their strategic, tactical and other business decisions. Overall results indicated differences between the subsidiaries and the headquarter; and among the subsidiaries on CI practice (CI collection, CI coordination, CI sharing and CI effort) and CI usage for SDM and other decisions. Although a similar strategy development process (guided by the grand corporate strategy), management structure, decision-making process and orientation in the subsidiaries existed, these uniformities did not significantly result in a uniform level of application and usage of CI for SDM across the conglomerate. The conclusion is that CI application is very subjective and contextual even in a vertically integrated conglomerate. Through theory, literature review and empirical findings, synthesis and iteration, a middle-range theory that integrates the CI and SDM disciplines in terms of the contextual issues both share is also constructed. The study also developed a novel way of crafting CI for SDM, which may fit into the existing structure and realities of the conglomerate so as to formalise CI. The CI programme implementation strategy framework was developed considering the proof of tested theories, best practices, existing context, strategy, decision-making process, structure, enabling factors and capabilities of the conglomerate. The CI programme implementation strategy framework, accompanied by a proposed CI structure, has immediate pragmatic utility. It could enable the conglomerate to initiate a formal CI programme without delay and to develop it following an organisational maturation cycle. The study makes an original contribution by conceptualising a CI programme implementation strategy for a unique case and theorising the case within a novel extension within middle-range theory (“SDM and CI application can be viewed in the contextual domains both share”). The exploratory study itself, which led to merging theory and best practices with empirical results and fitting the theories and best practices into case conglomerate’s realities, also makes the study unique in terms of its approach and outputs.
Inhloso enkulu yalolu cwaningo kwakungukusungula uhlaka lokuqala ukusebenzisa uhlelo lwamasu obuhlakani bokuqhathanisa izinkampani ezincintisanayo, obaziwa ngokuthi yiCompetitive Intelligence (iCI) ngesiNgisi ukuze isebenze kahle ekuthathweni kwezinqumo ezihambisana namasu okwaziwa ngestrategic decision-making (iSDM) ngesiNgisi kwinhlanganyela yezinkampani, kusetshenziswa uhlobo locwaningo olungamayunithi amaningi afakwe ndawonye, oluhlola udaba olulodwa nolugxile kakhulu ekuqoqweni kwemininingwane. Ngakhoke, lolu cwaningo luhlole umthelela omuhle wamasu eCI ngokuthatha izinqumo ezihambisana namasu (iSDM) enkampanini enomumo wenhlanganyela yezinkampani enezinkampani ezingena ngaphansi kwayo ezenza imisebenzi eyahlukahlukene. Phezu kokumsebenzi obonakalayo weCI ngokuhlukile kwiSDM, inhlangayela yezinkampani okuyiyo ebhekiwe kanye nezinkampani ezingaphansi kwayo yaqoqa yase isebenzisa imikhiqizo yeCI etholakalayo ukusingatha ukuthatha kwayo izinqumo ezihambisana namasu, namaqhinga kanye nezinye izinqumo zebhizinisi. Imiphumela ephelele yabonisa ukuthi kukhona ukungafani phakathi kwezinkampani ezingena ngaphansi kwayo kanye nekomkhulu; kanti futhi phakathi wezinkampani ezingena ngaphansi kwayo kokuphathelene neCI (Ukuqoqwa kwemininingwane yeCI, ukuhlanganiswa kwemininingwane yeCI, ukusabalalisa imininingwane yeCI nokusebenza kweCI) nokusetshenziswa kweSDM nezinye izinqumo. Nakuba kwakukhona inqubo yokuthuthukisa isu elifanayo (elandela imigomo yesu elihle lenkampani), ukwakheka kohlaka lwabaphethe, inqubo yokuthatha izinqumo kanye nokuqondiswa kwezinkampani ezingaphansi kwenye, lokhu kwefaniswa akuzange kube ngokufanayo endleleni yokwenza nokusebenziswa kweCI kwiSDM kwinhlangayela yezinkampani. Isiphetho ukuthi uhlelo lokusebenza lweCI luncike kakhulu ohlangothini nasengqikithini eyodwa kwinhlanganyela yezinkampani ezenza izinto ezahlukahlukene. Ngokulandela ukuhlaziywa kwemibhalo yemibono yezinzululwazi, kanye nokutholakele uma kwenziwa ucwaningo olubheka izinto ngenkathi zenzeka, ukuhlanganiswa kwemininingwane kanye nokuphindaphindwa kokuhlolwa, kuphinde kwakhiwe imibono yezinzululwazi emibili ehlanganisa imikhakha yeCI neSDM maqondana nezingqikithi ezifanayo kuyona. Ekugcineni, ucwaningo luphinde lwasungula indlela engakaze ibe khona yokwakha iCI iyakhela iSDM engangena ithi khaxa ekwakhekeni nasesimweni esikhona senhlanganyela yezinkampani ukuze iCI ihleleke ngokusemthethweni. Uhlaka lwesu lokuqaliswa kokusebenza kohlelo lweCI lwenziwa ngoba kucatshangwa ngobufakazi obutholakala kwimibono yezinzululwazi ehloliwe, okusebenze ngempumelelo, indikimba ekhona njengamanje, isu, inqubo yokuthatha izinqumo, ukwakheka, yilokho okwenza izinto zenzeke futhi kusebenzeke kwinhlanganyela yezinkampani. Uhlaka lwesu lokuqaliswa kokusebenza kohlelo lweCI, oluphelezelwa ukwakheka okuhlongoziwe kweCI kukwazi ukuhlolisisa kahle umqondo wokukwazi ukubona ubungako bolwazi nesidingo solunye ucwaningo. Kungasiza inhlanganyela yezinkampani, cishe, ukuba ikwazi ukuqala uhlelo olusha lweCI nokulithuthukisa kulandela uchungechunge lwendlela yokukhula yenhlangano. Ucwaningo lufaka ulwazi olusha esivivaneni ngokuqhamuka nomqondo omusha wesu lokuqala ukusebenzisa uhlelo lweCI odabeni olungajwayelekile, bese lubeka imibono ngodaba olubhekwayo ngendlela engakaze yenzeke nehlanganisa imibono yezinzululwazi kanye nocwaningo olubheka izinto ngenkathi zenzeka (“Ukusetshenziswa kweSDM neCI kungabhekwa ezizindeni zengqikithi ezifanayo kukona”). Ucwaningo oluhlolayo, lona uqobo, oluholela ekuhlanganisweni kwemibono yezinzululwazi nokubhekwa kwalokho okucwaningwayo ukuthi kusebenza kahle kuphi kanye nemiphumela yocwaningo olubheka izinto ngenkathi zenzeka, nokuhlanganisa lokho nokwenzeka ngempela enhlanganyeleni yezinkampani, nakho kwenza lolu cwaningo lube ngolwehlukile maqondana nendlela oluyilandelayo kanye nemiphumela evelayo.
Die primêre doel van hierdie studie was om 'n strategieraamwerk vir programimplementering van mededingingsintelligensie (MI) te ontwikkel vir die doeltreffende gebruik van MI in strategiese besluitneming in 'n konglomeraat, deur 'n vasgelegde veelvoudige eenhede, enkelgeval-verkenningstudie, wat ook kwalitatief dominant is, te gebruik. Die studie het dus die strategiese waarde van MI vir strategiese besluitneming verken in 'n maatskappy wat 'n konglomeraatstruktuur het en wie se filiale vertikaal geïntegreer is. Ondanks die waargenome nuttigheid van MI vir spesifiek strategiese besluitneming, het die gevallestudiekonglomeraat en sy filiale die beskikbare MI-produkte versamel en aangewend om hul strategiese, taktiese en ander sakebesluite te ondersteun. Algehele resultate het die bestaan van verskille tussen die filiale en die hoofkantoor aangedui; en tussen die filiale oor MI-praktyke (MI-versameling, MI-koördinering; MI-deling en MI-pogings) en MI-gebruik vir strategiese en ander besluite. Alhoewel daar soortgelyke strategiese ontwikkelingsprosesse bestaan (gelei deur die groot korporatiewe strategie), het hierdie eenvormigheid in bestuurstrukture, besluitnemingprosesse en oriëntering in die filiale nie 'n beduidende eenvormige vlak van toepassing en gebruik van MI vir strategiese besluitneming regdeur die konglomeraat tot gevolg gehad nie. Gevolglik is MI-toepassing baie subjektief en kontekstueel, selfs in 'n konglomeraat wat vertikaal geïntegreer is. Deur teoretiese, literatuuroorsig- en empiriese bevindinge is sintese en iterasie, twee middelvlakteorieë, ook saamgestel wat velde van MI en strategiese besluitneming met betrekking tot die kontekstuele kwessies wat albei deel, geïntegreer het. Op die ou end het die studie ook 'n nuwe manier ontwikkel om MI vir strategiese besluitneming te bewerk wat by die bestaande struktuur en realiteite van die konglomeraat kan inpas om MI te formaliseer. Die strategieraamwerk vir programimplementering van MI is ontwikkel met die bewys van getoetste teorieë, beste praktyke, bestaande konteks, strategie, besluitnemingsproses, faktore wat strukture moontlik maak en vermoë van die konglomeraat, in gedagte. Die strategieraamwerk vir programimplementering van MI, saam met die voorgestelde MI-strukture, het onmiddellike pragmatiese nut. Dit kan die konglomeraat onmiddellik in staat te stel om 'n formele MI-program te inisieer en dit te ontwikkel deur 'n organisatoriese verouderingsiklus te volg. Die studie maak 'n oorspronklike bydra deur 'n strategie vir programimplementering van MI te konseptualiseer vir 'n unieke geval, die teoretisering van die geval binne 'n nuwe uitbreiding in 'n middelvlakteorie ("Toepassing van strategiese besluitneming en MI kan in die kontekstuele domeine beskou word wat beide deel"). Die verkenningstudie self, wat tot die samesmelting van teorie en beste praktyke met die empiriese resultate gelei het en die passing van die teorieë en beste praktyke in die gevallestudiekonglomeraat se realiteite, maak die studie ook uniek met betrekking tot sy benadering en opbrengs.

This thesis sets out to examine the use and character of employee voice practices in foreign owned multinational enterprises operating in Australia. It specifically focuses on the impact of union presence and a strategic human resource management approach on the employee voice practices. To address the research questions a quantitative research method was adopted utilising a questionnaire. This was conducted through face to face interviews with the HR managers of a sample of 171 foreign owned multinational enterprises operating in Australia. To examine the character of employee voice practices, frequencies and cross tabulations were conducted. Logistic regression analysis was carried out to determine the influence of a union presence and strategic human resource management approach on employee voice practices. The findings provide a comprehensive snapshot of the current character and influences of employee voice approaches adopted by multinational enterprises in the Australian context. This thesis demonstrates that foreign owned multinational enterprises are high-level users of the full range of direct employee voice mechanisms with the exceptions of use of employee suggestion schemes. Indirect methods such as trade union recognition and the use of joint consultation committees across all sites were not utilised to the same extent. It was also found that trade union presence and a strategic human resource management approach; greenfield site and country of origin affect the employee voice approach adopted. High trade union presence is associated with an indirect employee voice approach. A low trade union presence is associated with a direct or a minimalist approach to employee voice. A strategic human resource management approach is associated with both direct and dualistic approaches to employee voice. Implications can be drawn for theory and management practice.

Globalisation had a major impact on the way organisations operate. Access to information and innovative technology connote that organisational leaders need to make timely decisions while considering a range of rapidly changing variables. Leaders of global organisations need to make sense of complex information and anticipate the long-term outcomes of making different decisions. This requires highly developed cognitive skills. However, these are not the only factors influencing strategic decisions. Value systems also affect the choices organisational leaders make. Limited existing research has investigated the relationship between values and cognition within organisational leadership. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between cognitive complexity, cognitive processes and individual values at a senior management level in a multinational company. Cognition is explored in terms of cognitive processes and levels of work (as measured by the Cognitive Process Profile), and values are explored in terms of value systems (as measured by the Value Orientations questionnaire). The study is based on a quantitative research design, where a sample of 265 executives, senior managers and directors employed at a multinational organisation completed the assessments. The empirical study (N = 265) yielded some weak, yet statistically significant, relationships between cognition and value systems among organisational leaders in a multinational organisation.

Abstract Strategy Map shows the cause and effect relationships diagram which is selected the goal projects of four perspectives from Balanced Scorecard (BSC) , it is a more advanced managed tool than BSC. But both have not contained the feedback circulation of the strategies also fail to judge and prove the influence of events’ time delays , they are unable to simulate the complicated environment, to lack the strategy’s simulation, and not to inspect the impact on performance of the strategy further. This research proceeds case study with the method of System Dynamics and uses “the strategy’s goal planning and dynamic decision procedure”, it launches the case’s Strategy Map and Balanced Scorecard then proceeds System Dynamics modeling, simulation , testing and analyzing, and proposes the conclusion of this research. This research discovers mainly as: 1. The use of Strategy Map and Balanced Scorecard can help system Dynamics to make the system boundary conveniently while the enterprise’s strategy model are developing. 2. Strategy Map and Balanced Scorecard are static, simple, without positive and negative relationships, and one-way causality link from bottom to top. They pay close attention to the short-term goal and neglect the long-term goal, also don’t consider the time delays, but System Dynamics can make up their deficiency. 3. The levels and auxiliaries of System Dynamics Model Structure can assist the measures of Balanced Scorecard to be instituted and be discussed. 4. The system thinking from System Dynamics can prove general objective and intuitional thought, also can get counterintuition. 5. Each KPI of Balanced Scorecard only knows the “up and down” change in itself, doesn’t understand the dynamic colloction between each other, from System Dynamics simulation can tell the influence of each other KPI. Finally, propound 5 points of this research: 1. To integrate the theories of strategy management for application. 2. To explain the changeful meaning of the performance indicator and to strengthen the performance management. 3. To assist the examing of the strategies to obtain proper decision. 4. To find the counterintuition which can help enterprises to dig unexpected questions out of the objective intuition. 5. To analyze the revenue of the strategy actions and the cost benefit, also to help the system of the budget and the strategies estimate.

Abstract In the face of rapid changing business environment, companies are struggling to retain their sustained competitiveness and eagerly cooperating with other companies in order to accurately map the antecedents and outcomes of competition and innovation. This study focuses on the discussion of key decision-making factors and industrial cluster collaboration in middle Taiwan’s machinery industry as an in-depth research and survey. Middle Taiwan has been headquarter of machinery industry and provides a unique and complete industrial supply-chain environment. Cluster collaborations of outsourcing, strategic alliances and other types of emerging competitive alternatives are developed under the framework of bilateral cooperation. Therefore, creating a win-win situation or multilateral interest becomes an issue of impetus concerned by small-and-medium enterprises (SMEs) in Taiwan. This study explores company''s decision-makings of cluster collaboration mainly based on Gigerenzer’s (2001) interpretation of "fast-and-frugal heuristic tree decision-making method” (FAFHT), which uses a minimum number of question nodes and involves all available cues. This study also adopts the concept of “take-the-best” method to collect the most effective degree of decision factors as cues and further determines the validity of cues by calculating factors value and running AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) method. This study finds that the decision-making factors include transaction cost, mutual trust, strategic cooperation, complementary, knowledge sharing, experience of cooperation, business conception, delivery accuracy, quality assurance, and cooperation degree. Finally, this study interview the company to design the Decision systems analysis (DSA) flowchart that know the each factor detail flow. This study discovered that the major decision-making factors for selecting partners. It will be a great help find competitive partners matain your power. Exspecialy in quality assurance and transaction cost. Furthermore, this study emphasizes on keeping long-term relationships. Let each other provide their strength then make a win-win situation.

For MRO (Maintenance, Repair & Operation) maintenance and production operations in the aviation industry, its backup components are playing an increasingly important role in the manufacturing industry, as the MRO backup component supply chain management plan must be coordinated to ensure smooth production capacity and optimized total cost. Owing to the particularity of the spare parts and the random uncertainty of the production and storage, this study cultivates a model of stochastic programming using the quantitative mathematical model to improve the MRO spare parts supply chain plan is developed. First, this study quantify the uncertain production time capability as a random variable with a probability distribution. Second, the upper limit of the inventory cost is set to the multi-selection variable in the a limit. Finally, this study used the Lagrange Interpolating Polynomial Approach to conduct a case test of the model in the supply chain plan of the vacuum hot-press furnace (Autoclave), and the values of the optimized equivalent deterministic model and the non-zero decision variables of the linear programming arrangement were derived. And verify that the larger the difference between the objective function of the actual production time and the expected production time, the higher the labor cost required for the input will be, and the optimal cost is limited by the amount of equipment invested. In this case, the model variables could be more precisely seperated the differences. Compared to inventory management and modest manpower arrangements that are only through raw material components, stable machinery and equipment operation and good supply chain planning for operation and replenishment, the act of making a decision about effectiveness.
