    A unifying approach to management (1997)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Management decision 35 (1997), S. 398-403 
    Details
    ISSN: 0025-1747
    Quelle: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Thema: Wirtschaftswissenschaften
    Notizen: Looks at what it takes to create effective organizations. States that they use some system for unifying the efforts, thoughts and actions of diverse groups within the organization. These organizations have a "unifying factor" that is clearly defined and has a well-understood meaning throughout the organization. Reviews some of these unifying factors and the organizations that make them work. There may be no one best unifying factor but certain common components exist in all unifying factors. Posits that customer service, quality or even money can be a unifying factor if the right infrastructure is created, so all are drawn together for a common purpose.

    Gaining competitiveness through innovation (1999)
    Bingley : Emerald
    European journal of innovation management 2 (1999), S. 82-85 
    Details
    ISSN: 1460-1060
    Quelle: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Thema: Wirtschaftswissenschaften
    Notizen: Innovation has always been at the centerpiece of competitiveness. Experimentation, exploration and a drive to maximize resources is as essential for companies as it is for nations and our whole species. Many of the lessons for how to best innovate can be drawn from nature herself. The Cambrian explosion provides a good blueprint for how innovations occur. It shows us that true innovation often occurs in sudden dynamic shifts. It is not one of continual or gradual improvements but rather "lumpy" improvements. It is these sudden competitive changing innovations that open up and close out vast areas of commerce. Unfortunately, we never know where these competitive changing innovations will occur, so it is best to be ever vigilant and explore not only main lines of inquiry but also by-products. Often, it is these by-products that turn out to be the competitive shifting innovations.

    Bradford : Emerald
    Training for quality 4 (1996), S. 32-36 
    Details
    ISSN: 0968-4875

    Thema: Wirtschaftswissenschaften
    Notizen: Looks at how companies can go about creating a competitive culture using American Express as an example. Provides details of their programme, including their focus of attitudinal training and the role of leadership. American Express has chosen quality service to their customers as their unifying factor and this has worked well, as employees can easily put themselves into the customer's shoes and, if the process is done correctly, take pride in a job well done. Looks at the firm's intrastructure, in-house training sessions, service tracking, reports, transaction-based surveys, establishing of links, performance reviews, attitudinal training, employee involvement, and communications. Concludes by noting American Express confirm that people want to give their best and it is management's job to encourage employees and then empower them so they can do so.

    Employee involvement, pollution control and pieces to the puzzle (1999)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Environmental management and health 10 (1999), S. 105-111 
    Details
    ISSN: 0956-6163

    Thema: Medizin , Wirtschaftswissenschaften
    Notizen: Employee involvement is essential to improving pollution control. Organizations like Dow Chemical have been able to use employee involvement to reduce pollution. It begins by understanding, as Dow does, that "If pollution is a cost to you (my competitor) and a cost to me, I win if my costs are lower". Controlling these costs requires people to think about it - a lot. Everyone must accept ownership for pollution. All the pieces must fit together. Unfortunately, even the most advanced companies are still struggling with these issues. An anonymous survey was sent to some of the top pollution-reducing companies in the world. Responses to the questionnaire that focused on a wide range of issues often proved surprising to disturbing. Executives in charge sometimes felt they had employee involvement but few of the operational conditions for it to exist. Dow Chemical provides a rare example of being able to connect all the pieces, through its three keys.

    Enviro-management as a profit center (1998)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Environmental management and health 9 (1998), S. 60-64 
    Details
    ISSN: 0956-6163
    Quelle: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Thema: Medizin , Wirtschaftswissenschaften
    Notizen: The environment is the source of many discussions in America's board rooms. Most of the conversations probably center around cost containment, dealing with new regulations or reacting to unexpected problems. Some conversations may even revolve around how to "cash in" on the public's concern for the environment. All of these discussions are normal, but also are increasingly becoming outdated. Companies that see the environment as a cost rather than a chance to gain a competitive advantage are perhaps missing the best opportunity of the 1990s. In the 1980s, quality was the vehicle that delivered greater profits and market share, but many businesses were late to recognize the fact that quality is a profit issue, not a cost issue. It was only the success of the Japanese and consumer pressure that created the quality revolution. Today, it is the environment that holds enormous potential for business, but until recently business was in a reactive not proactive mode. In order to be able to use the environment as a competitive weapon, business needs to begin where it should always begin, its customers.

    Managing pollution efforts: how to turn pollution into profits (1996)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Environmental management and health 7 (1996), S. 15-22 
    Details
    ISSN: 0956-6163
    Quelle: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Thema: Medizin , Wirtschaftswissenschaften
    Notizen: Discusses the importance of environment as it affects organizations in terms of cost containment, dealing with new regulations or reacting to unexpected problems. Looks at the possibilities of "cashing in" on the public's concern for the environment and views the environment as a means by which to gain competitive advantage in the 1990s. Proposes that pollution management is more than controlling cost; it can be a revenue generator. Concludes that some managers are "out of touch" and that their employees have a better grasp of reality. Emphasizes again that the potential for environmental profit extends far beyond customer appeal.

    Must female accounting faculty publish more to achieve tenure? (2000)
    Bradford : Emerald
    Women in management review 15 (2000), S. 344-355 
    Details
    ISSN: 0964-9425
    Quelle: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Thema: Sociologie , Wirtschaftswissenschaften
    Notizen: We examine whether female faculty in US universities have a higher tenure benchmark relative to their male counterparts. Using survey data from 317 accounting faculty, we compare the role of gender for both favorable and unfavorable tenure decisions. Specifically, we compare: the research output of female faculty who are awarded tenure to that of similarly successful male faculty, and the research output of female faculty who are not awarded tenure to that of similarly unsuccessful male faculty. Contrary to past research investigating gender bias at upper ranks within organizations, we find no evidence that female faculty must achieve higher research output than male faculty in order to be awarded tenure.

    Magical oracles and hand axes: lessons for building self-confidence and employee ownership (1999)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Leadership & organization development journal 20 (1999), S. 147-154

    Notizen: From ancient times, the need for control and the ability to gain it by developing tools, language and ideas has distinguished the human species. More recently, empowerment has been used as a way of ensuring members of an organization have sufficient control. This not only boosts trust and morale but enables people to take risks and respond to competitive challenges from every level of the organization. Essential measures for successful empowerment include passing on information on all aspects of the organization's performance, providing training and using these to encourage either individual leadership or collective leadership as part of a team. Empowerment will not work unless we address the human need for self-control.

    Mission statements miss the point (2001)
    Bingley : Emerald
    Leadership & organization development journal 22 (2001), S. 309-314 
    Details
    ISSN: 0143-7739
    Quelle: Emerald Fulltext Archive Database 1994-2005
    Thema: Wirtschaftswissenschaften
    Notizen: Research on mission statements has shown considerable variability in their value as well as equal disagreement about their value. Mission statements and strategic objectives are often created in the hope that they can help push the organization toward some desired destination. Every person and every organization needs to have a clear destination for their group or organization, but it will require finding better vehicles than simple mission statements. Successful organizations should probably spend 90 percent of their time keeping people focused and 10 percent figuring out how to get there. Ineffective organizations tend to spend 90 percent of their time making rules, regulations, and procedures. Asking good questions is a fine start, but it also takes hard work and continual feedback; otherwise, you end up with a lifeless mission statement. It may not be essential for the entire group to think as one or to reach a complete agreement or singularity about what they are supposed to be about, but the process of continually monitoring and evolving this process is essential.
