    Notes: Uses a questionnaire survey sent to CEOs of US and Japanesesubsidiaries located in North America to assess the amount of influenceexerted on such companies by corporate headquarters and the effect ofthis influence on leadership styles of subsidiary management. USsubsidiaries are found to be insignificantly influenced by their parentcompanies and to practise a professional style of leadership. However,Japanese subsidiaries are found to be significantly influenced byoverseas parent companies and to practise a corporate style ofleadership (when the CEO is Japan-educated) and a professional style ofleadership (when the CEO is US-educated). These findings reinforce theperceived link between leadership style and cultural upbringing andeducation.

    Notes: Direct selling as a type of non-store retailing continues toincrease internationally and in Australia in its use and popularity. Onenon-store retailing method, multilevel marketing or network marketing,has recently incurred a degree of consumer suspicion and negativeperceptions. A study was developed to investigate consumer perceptionsand concerns in New South Wales and Victoria. Consumers were surveyed todetermine their perception of direct selling and its relationship toconsumer purchasing decisions. Responses indicate consumers had anegative perception towards network marketing, while holding a lowpositive view of direct selling. There appears to be no influence ofnetwork marketing on consumer purchase decisions.

    ISO 9000 among Australian companies: impact of time and reasons for seeking certification on perceptions of benefits received (1997)
    Bingley : Emerald
    International journal of quality & reliability management 14 (1997), S. 650-660 
    Details
    ISSN: 0265-671X
    Source: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Topics: Economics
    Notes: Utilizes a survey of 272 Australian ISO 9002 quality certified companies to examine two issues: first, the relationship between a company's initial motivation for seeking certification (QCert) and its perception of the benefits it has received; and, second, the impact of time on perceptions of benefits received. Companies which sought QCert because of an externally-imposed perception of the necessity to "obtain a certificate" were found to experience fewer beneficial outcomes of QCert, in comparison with companies which sought QCert because of an internally-driven desire to improve organizational performance. Additionally, no evidence was found that longer-certified companies experience more benefits than recently-certified companies, regardless of the initial motivation for seeking QCert. Cautions against the drive towards "forcing" companies to seek QCert as a result of a perception of an external threat. Such a process appears to be counterproductive.
