Führungskräfte sind stets mit dem Phänomen Macht konfrontiert, sind sich dessen aber nicht immer ausreichend bewusst. Mit Macht reflektiert umzugehen, ist allerdings hochrelevant – denn Organisationen im Kontext von Digitalisierung, Nachhaltigkeit und New Work zu transformieren, verändert Machtdynamiken. Der vorliegende Text führt in den Zusammenhang von Führung und Macht ein und ermöglicht Führungskräften, das Phänomen Macht handlungsorientiert zu reflektieren.

This article proposes several modified quasi Z-source dc/dc boost converters. These can achieve soft-switching by using a clamp-switch network comprised of an active switch and a diode in parallel with a capacitor connected across one of the inductors of the Z-source network. In this way, ringing at the transistor switching node is mitigated, and the voltage at the turn-on of the transistor is reduced. Even a zero voltage switching (ZVS) of the main transistor is possible if the capacitor in the clamp-switch network is adequately chosen. The proposed circuit structure and operating mode are described and validated through simulations and measurements on a low-power prototype.
Für das Gelingen der Wärmewende und des von Klimaschutzminister Robert Habeck eingeforderten Wärmepumpenhochlaufs gilt es mannigfaltige Herausforderungen zu lösen. Welche Chancen in diesem Zusammenhang eine Kombination von Wärmepumpe und Kraft-Wärme-Kopplung (KWK) eröffnet, wird im folgenden Beitrag erörtert.
Introduction: Even if there is a standard procedure of CI surgery, especially in pediatric surgery surgical steps often differ individually due to anatomical variations, malformations or unforseen events. This is why every surgical report should be created individually, which takes time and relies on the correct memory of the surgeon. A standardized recording of intraoperative data and subsequent storage as well as text processing would therefore be desirable and provides the basis for subsequent data processing, e.g. in the context of research or quality assurance.
Method: In cooperation with Reutlingen University, we conducted a workflow analysis of the prototype of a semi-automatic checklist tool. Based on automatically generated checklists generated from BPMN models a prototype user interface was developed for an android tablet. Functions such as uploading photos and files, manual user entries, the interception of foreseeable deviations from the normal course of operations and the automatic creation of OP documentation could be implemented. The system was tested in a remote usability test on a petrous bone model.
Result: The user interface allows a simple intuitive handling, which can be well implemented in the intraoperative setting. Clinical data as well as surgical steps could be individually recorded and saved via DICOM. An automatic surgery report could be created and saved.
Summary: The use of a dynamic checklist tool facilitates the capture, storage and processing of surgical data. Further applications in clinical practice are pending.
Natural wood colors occur within a wide range from almost white (e.g., white poplar), various yellowish, reddish, and brownish hues to almost black (e.g., ebony). The intrinsic color of wood is basically defined by its chemical composition. However, other factors such as specific anatomical formations or physical properties further affect the optical impression. Starting with the chemical composition of wood and anatomical basics, wood color and its modifications are discussed in this chapter. The classic method of coloring or re-coloring wood-based material surfaces is the application of a coating containing appropriate dyes or pigments. Different concepts for wood coating and coloration are presented. Another method used dyes for coloration of the wood structure. As alternative techniques, physical methods, for example, drying, steaming, ammoniation, bleaching, enzyme treatment, as well as treatment with electromagnetic irradiation (e.g., UV), are explained in this chapter.
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to explore why men do not rent luxury fashion to explain why the demand for luxury fashion rental services for men is so low and to contribute to science by collecting high-quality data for the research fields gender differences in barriers to renting fashion, barriers to participating in renting luxury fashion in general and to increase the amount of data on men consumption behavior in the field of fashion and luxury fashion research. Furthermore, this study aims not only to make a theoretical contribution, but also to provide practical implications for the luxury fashion rental industry.
Design/methodology/approach
To answer the research question, qualitative semi-structured interviews with seven men were conducted, who are interested in fashion and spend at least 10% of their monthly net income on luxury fashion per month. Through a deductively-inductively category-based qualitative content analysis of the interviews supported by the software MAXQDA, not only were the reasons found why many men refuse to rent luxury fashion, but also characteristics were discovered that make luxury fashion rental services more attractive to men, as well as two fashion segments and a product category in which men can imagine renting fashion or luxury fashion under certain circumstances.
Findings
Men reject the concept of renting primarily because of the nonexistence of ownership, which has to do with loss of emotional value, loss of functional value, fear of social rejection, and identity concerns; other reasons include lack of individualism, lack of habit and their own subjective standards. Except for two outliers, the remaining men surveyed could imagine using a luxury rental service under certain conditions. The most frequently mentioned features were omnichannel approach, transparency of the entire rental process provided by reviews and feedback about both the borrower and the lender, information about the cleaning process, and proof of authenticity. Also mentioned was the maintenance of exclusivity and the fact that rental services should be offered directly by the company. In the convenience category, the purchase option and insurance were mentioned most often. In addition, some men could imagine renting event-related clothing, very trendy and expensive luxury clothing, and luxury watches. However, none of the respondents would give up owning clothes and primarily use the LFRS.
Value/Practical Implications
So that marketers do not have to go through trial and error to figure out which of these characteristics works best for which male target group, the work developed five types that can be targeted with selected characteristics and their marketing, and thus perhaps persuaded to participate in the LFRS. The social type needs the feature of maintenance of exclusivity, the emotional type needs the purchase option and an omnichannel experience, the flexibility type needs the same day delivery and free exchange possibilities, the cost-benefit type needs analytical tools to maximize his rental income or to calculate whether it is cheaper to buy or rent this particular item for this particular period of time, the rule-governed type needs an added value in addition to renting such as a top service.
This study examines the underexplored areas of customer success management, focusing on the impact of leadership and companywide collaboration, and the role of customer success in overall firm performance. A qualitative research approach was utilized, which involved reviewing relevant literature and conducting an interview with the Vice President of Customer Success Management in B2B at a case company. Findings revealed that both leadership and pervasive collaboration greatly enhance the customer journey experience. Given that 75% of Annual Recurring Revenue is derived from existing customers, the substantial role of customer success in propelling business growth is affirmed. The study also demonstrated the importance of proactive customer engagement, assimilating customer feedback into products and services, and nurturing personal relationships with customers for fostering innovation. It further stressed the need for service provision and decision-making at various levels, as well as the implementation of a range of communication channels, to ensure customer success.
Wertschätzung zählt
(2023)
Wie steht es mit den Sitten im B2B-Geschäft? Im Beitrag werden Wahrnehmung und Ursachen für den Sittenwandel im wirtschaftlichen Kontext in Deutschland und der Schweiz beleuchtet. Anhand einer Analyse der Werteforschung und Experteninterviews im B2B-Sales werden die Erscheinungsformen des Sittenwandels kritisch untersucht. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass Wertschätzung, Respekt und Vertrauen im Vertriebsbereich zwar einen hohen Wert besitzen, aber oft missachtet werden.
Dieser Beitrag untersucht, wer in Deutschland Bildungsminister:in wird. Zur Klärung dieser Frage entwickelten wir einen Datensatz, der die biografischen Merkmale aller Bildungsminister:innen der deutschen Bundesländer zwischen 1950 und 2020 enthält. Als Beispiel für die Nutzung des Datensatzes untersuchen wir die beiden Merkmale Geschlecht und frühere Berufserfahrung und verknüpfen diese Merkmale mit Indikatoren für die Größe und Entwicklung des Bildungsbudgets und die Dauer der Amtszeit. Wir zeigen, dass zwischen 1950 und 2020 deutlich mehr Männer als Frauen zum/zur Bildungsminister:in ernannt wurden, unabhängig davon, welche Parteien die Bildungsminister:innen stellten. Außerdem verfügt die Mehrheit der Bildungsminister:innen bei Amtsantritt nicht über vorherige Berufserfahrung als Lehrer:in. Die meisten Bildungsminister:innen haben jedoch bereits politische Erfahrung, wenn sie ihr Amt antreten. Unsere Datenbank, die die erste umfassende Erhebung biografischer Merkmale von Bildungsminister:innen in den deutschen Bundesländern enthält, steht allen interessierten Forscher:innen zur Verfügung.
