    Notizen: This paper presents some of the major learning points of a study in innovation practices in Indian organizations. It explains the current concerns and imperatives of Indian organizations since the liberalization, privatization and globalization processes started in 1991. We attempt to formulate the logical distinctions between different clusters and hypothesize the phenomenon of innovation. We identify the innovative outcomes and the constraining forces. A model is proposed to understand the strategic implications. Value innovations require an organizational commitment to create a strong momentum for inside-in changes and the deeper the commitment, the more likely organizations are to advance in bringing inside-out value creating outcomes and attaining superior positions in the competition pace.

    Notizen: Presents scenarios which illustrate the functionality of digitally distributed competence (DC). Explains that Performance Base Learning (PBL) is premised on the use of DC to support increments in human learning and makes a case for DC-supported PBL in education. Explores the challenges faced by the workforce that have resulted in expanded uses of DC and argues that these challenges provide clear guidelines for the renovation and revitalization of education services in countries such as the United States. Concludes that in the PBL paradigm, learning is a Just-In-Time event that occurs in the moment of performance or in highly detailed Just-Ahead-of-Time simulations that are continually revised by smart DC software.

    Notizen: This editorial continues our look at some of the forces that are acting on the university, both internally and externally. In this issue we look at the impact of lifelong learning. Universities use great expenses to recruit students, but are not retaining them as part of the community once they have graduated. The loss of alumni from the community is a great disadvantage to the institution and actively discourages collaborative learning.

    Notizen: Seeks to enhance our understanding of the suitability of loyalty measurement techniques by proposing a classification of brand loyalty based on varying market types. Distinguishing between market types is important because the very nature of markets indicates that the measures used to capture loyalty should be very different. This paper, in effect, argues against a single brand loyalty measure for all market types. Marketing practitioners wishing to predict future levels of loyalty would need to use different loyalty measures. In consumable markets where the market is stable and where there is high switching and low involvement and risk, behavioral measures are appropriate for predicting future brand loyalty levels. However where the market is not stable, there is a propensity towards sole brands and attitudinal measures may be better predictors of future behavior in such cases.

    Notizen: The rapid proliferation of drugs being switched from prescription (Rx) to over-the-counter (OTC) status within the USA has raised a number of important consumer behavior and public policy concerns. The following issue served as the focus of our research. Given the increasing assortment and widespread availability of Rx to OTC switch drugs, how might consumers' health care preferences change? That is, what factors influence whether a consumer is more likely to visit their physician rather than self-medicate symptoms of heartburn and indigestion with a new switch drug?

    Notizen: Forecasting enables the efficient utilisation of a firm's resources. There are various types of forecasting models that can be built. Illustrates the steps involved in building a forecasting model utilising seasonal regression with a practical example. The model obtained for the carbonated soft drink brand under consideration estimates a growth rate of 3,568 units per month during the last five years and identifies the seasonal effect during each month of the year. The model also computes the cannibalisation effect that the introduction of a brand extension has had. The development of such models can provide a useful input to both marketing and operations planning.

    Notizen: Actual and intended new product introduction announcements constitute significant events for firms' customers, competitors, and investors. Typically, past research has focused on the economic impact of actual new product introduction announcements. However, research relating to firms' intentions to introduce new products is relatively uncommon. These intended introductions or "pre-announcements" have important strategic objectives and affect a firm's customers and competitors in significant ways. Builds upon existing theory to study the economic impact of product pre-announcement signals. Adopts the event study methodology and explores the relationship between product pre-announcements and stock prices. Results show that relatively irreversible product pre-announcements, i.e., those containing "evidence" are valued positively by the stock market. In contrast, the stock market ignores bluffs or easily reversible announcements that lack such evidence. Given the significance of pre-announcements, managers should take these signals seriously. Discusses how product managers may use these results to develop actionable strategies for communicating with investors. Outlines the contribution of this paper to product management theory.

    Notizen: Reports a study of 1,304 Chinese brand names of ten types of products in China. These brand names are content analyzed following a linguistic approach which the authors developed from their earlier studies. The ten types of brand names are presented in three broad categories representing the three different developing stages of the consumer product industry in China: brands of traditional products (illustrated by matches and spirits), brands of traditional products with current development (illustrated by bicycles, shoes, and toothpastes), and brands of new and modern products (illustrated by cosmetics, soft drinks, washing machines, refrigerators and TV sets). The conclusion drawn from the analysis is that one of the variables in determining how linguistic principles are being applied to Chinese brand naming is the respective stages of development of such products in the context of the Chinese market economy.

    Notizen: Examines consumers' perception of brands as influenced by their origins and the differences in classification ability between consumers' knowledge levels. Specifically, culture-of-brand-origin (COBO) is proposed to have replaced country-of-origin (COO) as the most important origin influence regarded by consumers in their perceptions of brands. Culture-of-brand-origin is used to mean the cultural origin or heritage of a brand. Data were gathered from 459 respondents in the Asian city of Singapore; and used to assess Singaporean consumers' ability to classify the cultural origins of fashion clothing brands. This was compared to their ability to classify the country origins of the same brands. Six brands were used in a between-subjects design, with three brands of western countries and three of eastern countries. Results indicate that consumers can more readily identify the cultural origin of brands over their country-of-origin. Reveals that a consumer's ability to make this distinction is influenced by the consumer's perception of how well he/she knows the brand.

    Notizen: Most executives are well aware of the acceleration in the pace of business, and they want to know what to do about it. The authors talked with executives in 40 companies about how they are dealing with this issue and identified five business-model myths that are holding these firms back. Companies that have dispelled these misconceptions are not only achieving record profitability they are hitting new highs in the tough business environments that have driven their competitors under. This article describes the five myths and outlines how businesses can become more fluid and ready to respond quickly to change.

    Notizen: The concept of empowerment has received a great deal of attention in recent years. However, the empowerment knowledge base is predominantly large company-oriented with little evidence of understanding what empowerment means in a small business context. It is inappropriate to treat the small firm as a microcosm of a large organisation. The small business is qualitatively as well as quantitatively different and this article propounds that it is questionable whether the concept of empowerment and its various dimensions as portrayed in the literature are readily transferable to small businesses. It is suggested that empowering management approaches are key features of successful growth-oriented small firms but the current body of empowerment literature fails to encapsulate the idiosyncrasies and informalities of the small business operation, and thus convey understanding of the unique and novel forms of empowerment which facilitate sustainable development. Case study insight is used to support these propositions.

    Notizen: This paper discusses the attitude and views of travel consultants on the impact of Internet related technologies on their future employment and their abilities to cope with the threat of dis-intermediation. The authors anticipate that changes in the travel distribution process brought about by the Internet and other technologies will result in retail travel agencies experiencing lower business volume and hence difficulty in maintaining business viability. Against this background, a number of questions need to be addressed. What is the attitude of consultants towards new technologies in travel distribution? Are travel consultants prepared to meet the new challenges? What will be the role of travel consultants? Using a survey of 102 travel consultants, the paper shows the lack of awareness and negative attitude displayed by travel consultants in this rapidly changing distribution environment. The paper further suggests measures and training programs that could be undertaken to address the situation.

    Notizen: In recent years, increasing attention has been paid to positioning and, more specifically, positioning of service brands. This is so because of the unique characteristics of services. Although some authors argue that there are no marked differences between positioning in services and that of physical goods, the vast majority of marketing scholars believe that it is difficult to embark on positioning strategies in services. Sheds some light on this issue within the context and aims to contribute to the debate.

    Notizen: A brand is a kind of sign by which we can distinguish one commodity from another. Commodity prices, as well as consumers' utility and firms' profit, are affected by brands. Presents a theoretical framework that incorporates aspects of brand in microeconomic analysis. The theory developed makes it possible to infer the quality of differentiated products from the price distribution of the second-hand market for that product. A case study illustrates the workings of the methodology; the application evaluates the quality of the Japanese motorcycle manufacturers.

    Notizen: The marketer's principal objective is typically to build a relationship with buyers, rather than merely to make a single sale. Ideally, the essence of that relationship consists of a strong bond between the buyer and the brand. Outlines six strategies for building that relationship: linking the brand to a particular need; associating it with a pleasant mood; appealing to subconscious motives; conditioning buyers to prefer the brand through reward; penetrating perceptual and cognitive barriers to create preference; and providing attractive models for buyers to emulate. The choice of an individual strategy or combination depends mainly on the nature of the branded product or service. The success of the strategy depends heavily on the marketer's understanding of the preference building and bonding process.

    Notizen: The authors trace the inside story of a ground-breaking transaction which they pioneered. It enabled Barclays Bank to shed all the credit risk it held as the result of originating unsecured consumer loans in a particular branded portfolio. As such the transaction allowed Barclays to separate the business of origination from the business of managing the balance-sheet. This achievement has far-reaching consequences for the world of asset and liability management which the authors outline and discuss.

The author considers the squeeze created by consolidation in the financial services market and by globalisation and how companies have responded by creating asset management products and tapping increased customer demand for an ever wider range of products. The benefits of technology are turning the market upside-down but are benefiting new entrants rather than existing players. The key in the end will be those companies which can add value.

    Notizen: The new draft standard on financial instruments will revolutionise financial reporting around the world. The author argues that because of the politics of accounting standard-setting the recently promulgated draft standard will become the rule. This marks two great changes in global perception. First, it means that the principles behind accounting standards are aimed at providing investors with the ability to forecast the future. Second, it means that fair value will gradually take its place as the dominant measurement within accounts. This has severe consequences in the world of banking and financial institutions. The shape of the balance-sheet will be changed for ever.

    Notizen: Recent proposals to require all financial instruments to be measured at fair value are raising some pretty basic issues about bank accounting. The author, who headed up the UK end of the project to produce the new rules, argues whether, as bankers might suggest, they are overkill or whether they are a reasonable response to a serious problem. He argues that accounting rules around the world are moving steadily away from historical cost accounting and towards fair value accounting. The banks argue that their figures would become more volatile. The standard-setters argue that, if reporting more realistically shows volatility, then so be it. But the proposals are the most comprehensive examination of the problem and he commends its study.

He suggests that the proposals should be abandoned and that the accounting standard setters join with the banking industry to produce improvements in financial reporting.

    Notizen: The author traces the history and philosophy behind the concept of risk transfer and concentrates on the underlying theory of insurance. He argues that the complexity of the modern business world has meant that the simplicity of the concept has been lost. To this has been added the additional burden of regulation and a greater concentration on risk management. He suggests that the concept of enterprise risk management is the one which cuts this Gordian Knot and describes its benefits in adding value to the enterprise.

    Notizen: Daniel Ben-Ami, author of Cowardly Capitalism: The Myth of the Global Financial Casino, argues that the popular view of the global financial markets as some sort of irresponsible and volatile casino is fundamentally wrong. He argues that the financial markets have been as susceptible as everywhere else in contemporary society to the idea that risks must be driven out. He argues that global financial markets are risk averse and that as a result companies focus on financial returns rather than their core abilities.

He shows that the structural liability of different banks varies enormously. He argues that asset and liability management professionals need to have a deep understanding of the financial markets and of the many lines that their banks will be running. Even then he suggests that liquidity crises are very difficult to predict or control.

    Notizen: This is an exclusive extract from The ValueReporting Revolution: Moving Beyond the Earnings Game, a new book published by John Wiley & Sons, Inc., and written by four senior PricewaterhouseCoopers experts. In this extract they discuss the dilemma of risk management and risk reporting. They argue that there are difficulties in disclosing risk on the grounds that it causes problems with competitors and investors alike. There is also a lack of consensus of how market risk should be measured. They assess how to quantify operational risk and conclude that the gap between improving risk management techniques and risk disclosures needs to be closed.

The focus proposed differs from previous work by integrating the notions of stimulus overload and stimulus similarity as well as acknowledging conscious and unconscious confusion. The marketing determinants of confusion are classified and an inventory of confusion reduction strategies is discussed. Examines the marketing and policy implications of confusion, presents a checklist for brand managers to use when conducting a confusion audit and highlights areas for future research, especially into measurement of the concept.

    Notizen: Retailers of seasonal merchandise often face the problem of selling a fixed inventory over a short selling season. For a small retailer, with a sunk investment in inventory, a major objective is revenue maximisation. This paper is concerned with the provision of decision support for the tactical problem of dynamically marking down the price of seasonal merchandise in order to increase/maintain revenue. A heuristic procedure is developed for quickly identifying, and highlighting for review, items which are "slow selling" and "economically viable for price markdown". It is shown how a retailer can use such information in determining the timing and magnitude of price markdowns.

    Notizen: Contains the results of a quantitative research study which compared the organisational structures of the World's Top 100 brand companies with those of less successful companies, referred to in this article as Outsider brand companies. Identifies that whilst the type of organisational structure may not be seen as a determinant of brand success, perceptions of whether the organisational structure was right for them, were. In other words, managers of brands need to feel that the organisational structure allows them to manage in the way they consider necessary to deliver brand success. In some instances this might mean an authoritarian style of management through a hierarchical organisational structure and in others, it might mean a more democratic style of management through relatively flat organisational structures. The results are discussed in the context of brand management theory and practice and the postmodern paradigm shift regarding organisational structure.

    Notizen: As might be expected, steel product prices fell during the recession of the early 1990s. Between 1990 and 1992, steel prices fell by about a third. As the economies of the EC recovered from the recession from early 1993, steel prices rose but by mid-year it was clear that the increase was much below what was expected. It soon became clear that expected price rises were being mitigated by rising imports from Eastern European countries. This paper considers the process of steel price determination in the EC and the effect of cheap imports on EC prices. It shows that unregulated and relatively cheaper imports from the Former Soviet Union and Central and Eastern European countries indeed had a more depressing effect on EC prices by raising supply than would have been the case otherwise.

    Notizen: Resistance to change is a centerpiece in the traditional change agenda. The author argues that resistance to change is not a basic part of our make-up and he uses the example of his grandfather's life to provide examples of the many dramatic changes that have successfully impacted on people's lives during the twentieth century. The author outlines the leadership inadequacies that result in change initiatives being rejected. Central to these leadership problems are a lack of vision, limited integrity, lack of courage, inappropriate language, limited understanding of true empowerment, and only a passing commitment to leadership as service. The argument concludes that while many modern leaders have been trained in the what and the how of change, the real problem lies in the fact that the why and the who gains remains largely mute.

    Notizen: The variables impacting marketers' motivation to work smarter are examined. These influencing variables are the manager's venturesomeness, job challenge, effort and skill results, as well as self-esteem. The model is empirically tested using 273 responses to a questionnaire distributed to marketers using a purchased, national mailing list. The empirical tests were done using a structural equations approach and maximum likelihood estimation. The results indicate that the motivation to work smarter is directly and positively impacted by the manager's job challenge, effort and skill results, and venturesomeness. The manager's self-esteem has positive, indirect impacts on the motivation to work smarter through each of the manager's venturesomeness, effort and skill results, and job challenge. Based on these results, recommendations on how marketers can be encouraged to work smarter are made.

    Notizen: This article explores the effects of downsizing and the subsequent emergence of self-managed work teams. Continuous and accelerated change has resulted in massive downsizing activities by organizations. A classical model for the planning - implementing - and design of the downsizing process is presented. Group structure and typology is presented in terms of formal versus informal groups. The impact of groups and group dynamics, the stages of group development, and impact upon effectiveness, environment, design and learning processes will be included. Attention is given to the survivors of downsizing who form the foundation of the self-managed team. Leadership demands are presented in terms of leading the survivors, ensuring commitment and managing the future. The emergence of the SMT in terms of productivity, expectations and the management of conflict complete this exhaustive review of empirical data required for action-driven organizations in a turbulent environment.

    Notizen: Offers insights into workplace empowerment by concentrating on the wider contemporary (UK) context of work, conceptualising work in the on-going debates on human resource management (HRM) and postmodernity. Connections are made between theory and practice in HRM and postmodern critique, drawing on an empirical case study. Compares the postmodern motifs of consumerism and consumption, commodification and image projection and the HRM ideals of commitment, individuality and continuous development. Suggests that viewing HRM as discourse may enable a focus for, if not a reconciliation of, the debate between theoretical HRM and HRM in practice.

Individual empowerment requires that the philosophy of the organization, principally enacted through its administrative system, support employees in accomplishing organizational goals. Support comes from effective and efficient managerial allocation of organizational resources. Two different organizational philosophies are presented and discussed in terms of their impact on empowerment: organizational resource conservation and organizational resource integration. Differences between the philosophies are explained through a conceptual model of preventing failure versus assuring success. Implications of each philosophy for the practice of management in knowledge organizations are discussed. These implications are based on the assumption that managerial behaviors determine how successful will be the process of empowerment.

    Notizen: Considers the future of education in light of developments in information technology - most notably the growth of the internet - over recent years. Suggests that information technology, which has been welcomed into schools, is a "Trojan horse" which will ultimately lead to the extinction of the education system as we know it. Schools will be unable to compete with the wealth of knowledge freely available to students via sources such as the internet.

    Notizen: In this issue A Voice from Pari comes from two participants at "The Future of the Academy" conference held in Pari in September 2001. Italian universities are in the midst of large-scale reforms dictated by the Italian government. When one reads that, while graduates in most European countries can expect to start work in their early twenties, Italian students are not graduating until around the age of 27, it becomes clear why change is needed. Francesca Farabollini, pro-rector of education at the University of Siena, and Maurizio Franzini, an economist at the same university, have been actively engaged in these reforms and present an analysis of the Italian situation and some reflections on the advantages and disadvantages of open competition in the university market place.

    Notizen: Compares the process experienced through the reading of books with that of taking information from the internet. Indicates that the interaction between the book reader and the text is very rich and based around the life experiences of the reader. Indicates the importance with regard to the internet of organizing data and information into active knowledge. People need to be "participators of knowledge who will bring their inherent creativity to an understanding of how to use their knowledge".

    Notizen: The fifth is a series of articles looking at distributed competence software and performance base learning. This type of software offers real time solutions to person in learning, living and work situations. Performance base learning refers to the on-task learning that accompanies the application of distributed competence software in school, in the community and in work settings. This article considers the positive and negative reactions of administrators to the substitution of these innovations in place of conventional learning undertaken by students.

    Notizen: In this issue the "Voice from Pari" is that of Dr Elena Liotta, a Jungian analyst involved in local politics, who has been influential in guiding the direction of the Pari Center for New Learning. Her article reflects on the nature and future of education but in a much wider setting, that of society, and its values, as a whole and, in particular the growth and education of young children. The Jesuits are supposed to have said that, if they could have the education of a child for the first seven years of its life, they could then show you the man. While it is true that many of the issues faced in university education today are the result of economic pressures within a changing world, there is also the fact that students who enter university are less free and inquiring minds than minds that have already been conditioned by our primary educational system and current social values. If we are to address the future of education, we must do this at all levels.

    Notizen: In recent years, scholars and academic librarians have begun to consider alternatives to the print-based model for research publishing. Fortuitously, two significant trends emerged almost simultaneously. While libraries faced canceling subscriptions in response to escalating journal prices and declining budgets, the creation of the World Wide Web made a ubiquitous electronic alternative to the print journal possible for the first time.

    Notizen: Presents further empirical results on the convergent and predictive ability of a selection of consumer based brand equity measures. An underlying assumption in this study was that choice was an indicator of brand equity. It is a replication and extension of work carried out by Agarwal and Rao in 1996. Their work is the only study that has attempted to consolidate existing research on consumer based brand equity. Overall, the results generally concurred with those of Agarwal and Rao. Most of the measures were found to be convergent, and to estimate choice. The results mean that managers should now have more confidence in selecting from a range of brand equity measures, many of which can be collected easily and at minimal cost. More empirical studies, however, need to be carried out in a range of different markets to assess the wider performance of these brand equity measures.

    Notizen: Deals with brand management issues concerning brand as a resource for an industrial distributor. The brand resource can either be controlled by the producer - producer brand - or the distributor - private label brand. Analyzes the characteristics of managing the brand resource depending on whether it is a producer or private label brand. This is done from the perspective of the distributor. In order to undertake this research task, a theoretical framework derived from the industrial networks approach is used. The designed framework focuses on three central concepts - the resource intradependence, the resource interdependence, and the resource interdependence connection. The framework is analyzed on three respective levels, i.e. the company, the relationship and the network levels, and we present the results of the analysis, which indicate what influences the opportunities and constraints that management are faced with when making decisions concerning branding in an industrial context. The data has been collected through personal interviews among paper producers and paper merchants within the fine-paper industry in the UK.

    Notizen: The goal of this current study is to extend customer satisfaction research in two important ways. First, it attempts to demonstrate the relationship between customer satisfaction and price acceptance. Second, as Voss, Parasuraman and Grewal claim that only a small proportion of the existant satisfaction research focuses on services, we empirically analyze the relationship between customer satisfaction and price acceptance in the hotel industry. Finally, the implications of the study's findings for research into purchasing patterns and pricing policy are discussed.

    Notizen: Executives who hope to succeed in the new millennium must learn to manage in ways that are a quantum leap from the manner in which they have been managing. The basis for this new style of management is decision-making at lightning speed. Velocity management is decision making at speeds consistent with today's competitive environment and technology. It is based on a system of proactive metrics that are designed to ensure the balance of organizational and individual expectations, organizational and individual enablers, and positive and negative consequences. Velocity management promotes an awareness of disruptions when they first became noticeable or identifiable, allowing the organization to develop an instinct by which management can address disruptions at the earliest possible time and enact follow-up mechanisms to ensure improvement in off-schedule conditions.

    Notizen: Leadership, at its best, leverages other people's full potential The L.E.A.D. program follows neither the old command-and-control style of management nor the more laissez faire approaches that have emerged. Instead, L.E.A.D. begins with a clear mandate for managers to leverage their people to their highest levels of achievement, as individuals and as a group. The first step involves leveraging employee judgment, then fully engaging them in their work by respecting the psychological contract implied in employment, aligning all employee efforts by clarifying context, and finally developing individual capacity by coaching and mentoring. The L.E.A.D. process can spell the difference between truly outstanding achievements vs. run-of-the-mill practices that achieve far less.

    Notizen: Eight years ago, Bain & Company launched an annual survey to investigate the actual experience of companies that adopt leading management tools: Which tools are the most popular? How well do they work? And do they continue to deliver results over time? This article presents the answers to these questions, based on the latest (2000) North American survey results. On the one hand, 78 percent of respondents agreed that "Companies that use the right tools are more likely to succeed." Yet, at the same time, 82 percent agreed that "Most management tools promise more than they deliver." Senior executives fundamentally believe there are tools that can improve organizational performance, yet experience using these tools has also dampened their enthusiasm for the results. Includes a discussion of the 25 top management tools.

    Notizen: The collapse of the dot-com business sector has shown that, in reality, there is only one economy, with a new technology trying to find its way in it. Success in business will always depend on two areas of attention: building the business; and protecting the business. The Business Idea provides a method to consider the future viability of a business proposition in all basic aspects that make for longer-term success. The author discusses seven factors that are incorporated in a business idea. Business leaders that want their companies to survive must develop a positive feedback loop that encompasses all of these factors. This virtuous cycle ensures continued success and growth and the ongoing awareness of the evolving scarcities in the marketplace, leading to new inventions to keep the business's offerings in line with the customer needs.

    Notizen: Shared service functions such as finance and HR are more important to the success of most corporations today than they ever have been. Yet in many companies, they receive far less executive attention than the business units because shared services are not expected to generate profits. This article proposes that senior executives should require equally high standards for strategic-planning and profit-generating initiatives from their shared services as they do from business units. As a case study illustration, the authors describe how Champion International adopted a process to push shared service managers into value-enhancing initiatives and strategies and how that process helped transform the company's performance.

Suggests that outsourcing is now a firm part of the delivery of higher education and the issue is to what extent this has or will continue to occur. Looks also at the concept of "co-opetition" where institutions in one country have partnered with those in another. Suggests that the nature and rate of change present difficulties in terms of future planning for universities.

    Notizen: Distance Learning, Virtual Universities, Online Courses, and associated developments have received a lot of attention in this publication, academic educational journals, as well as the mainstream media. Most of the overviews tend to highlight the positive features of greater access, flexibility, reduced costs, and self-paced learning. By 1999, over 10,000 accredited courses were being offered online, leading some commentators to declare the old-fashioned classroom to be "as outdated as carbon paper and the mimeograph machine". Although much of the optimism is related to the positive contributions which can supplement traditional "brick and mortar" colleges and universities, our techno-fix culture has also created a "full speed ahead" rush towards computer-mode education. "Like the stampede online by business, this is being propelled by a fear of being left behind - even though nobody really knows where we're headed."

He also believes that innovation and radical change will be necessary for wealth creation in the coming years - change not only in products and processes, but change in entire business models as well. The interview includes Hamel's guidelines for those at any level of an organization who may have ideas about new opportunities that can revolutionize the company or the industry.

Managing innovation in this environment involves four key principles: the approach must be comprehensive; innovation must include an organized, systematic, and continual search for new opportunities; organizations must involve everyone in the innovation process; a company must work constantly on improving its climate for innovation.

    Notizen: Any time a company significantly changes the way it does things, there is "process risk," i.e., the risk that the business will suffer significant financial losses or harm to its reputation as a result of the change. Failure to effectively manage process risk explains why most major change initiatives ultimately fail. Process risk can take several forms. Four commonly observed varieties include performance dips, project frights, process fumbles, and process failures. The authors explore the human and operational process risks and propose precautionary steps that managers can take to circumvent these risks in the future.

    Notizen: Strategy execution is emerging as one of the critical sources of sustainable competitive advantage in the twenty-first century. As a result, strategy execution can no longer take a back seat to strategy formulation. Success depends on a new strategic paradigm that includes world-class, strategy-execution skills such as managing the development and implementation of a portfolio of initiatives, synchronizing internal processes with market rhythms, and avoiding disruptions by handling the ripple effect of organizational change. At a strategic and operating level, these practices improve all of the classic drivers of shareholder wealth.

    Notizen: Evolutions and revolutions in technology, globalization, business consolidation, and marketplace fragmentation have fundamentally changed the nature of organizations. Simultaneously, a workforce has emerged that is more educated, mobile, diverse, and discerning in work and life choices than ever before. Whatever was left of the old social contract between employer and employee has become a casualty of the race from an industrial society to the information age. The author reports an ongoing body of research called the @Work studies, which seeks to describe the dynamics of the new "commitment contract" that will forge the employer/employee relationship into the twenty-first century, how much commitment employees will be willing to give to their organizations, and what organizations must do to win that commitment.

    Notizen: What does it take for an executive to manage effectively in the new economy? While the explosion of Internet-centered business has produced an unrelenting focus on e-commerce strategies, new business models, and processes, surprisingly little attention has been paid to how e-business is changing the competencies needed to manage effectively in this new business environment. The authors describe the findings of research by the Accenture Institute for Strategic Change to discover the unique competencies that managers need to excel in the new economy. While some management competencies have changed little, research shows that e-managers need to develop new or stronger competencies in six key areas: fast decision making; partnering; knowing the technology; staying focused in spite of information overload; making sense of the future; and attracting and retaining talent.

    Notizen: Leaders at all levels of an organization need vision, strategic focus, and a bias toward action. But to shine in today's complex and changing world, leaders also need new insights and skills that upend conventional thinking about how to increase energy and attentiveness in the face of ever-rising pressure. Recent scientific discoveries are demonstrating that when people keep their energy high they not only make the most of their current capabilities, but they also reach most deeply into their untapped potential. Research also shows that there are two very distinct kinds of energy - tense energy and calm energy. The author suggests a few simple adjustments in the way people manage their days to help them stop the gear-grinding effects of tense energy and shift into calm energy.

    Notizen: The intellectual capital literature has concentrated on issues of defining, measuring, and reporting intellectual capital. The underlying thesis is that as the economy becomes more reliant on intellectual assets management and measurement processes need to focus more on these types of assets to redress an overemphasis on monetary and physical assets. This article discusses intellectual capital concepts as a mechanism for strategic analysis and facilitator of the strategy-formulation process. It briefly considers the nature of strategy, two major strands of strategic thinking, the external view and the resource-based view, and the advantages of the intellectual capital approach. The authors argue that the intellectual capital approach has a number of advantages leading to more effective implementation and strategic performance measurement.
