Indicators of disruption potentials - analysis of the blockchain technology’s potential impact
(2019)
The goal of this paper was to answer the question whether blockchain has the potential to become a disruption according to Clayton Christensen’s disruption theory. Therefore, the theory and the five characteristics that define the process of disruption were outlined in the first part of the paper. That and the following explanation of the blockchain technology served as the basis for the analysis and evaluation in chapters four to seven. For the analysis, three applications of the DLT, namely payment methods, intermediaries, as well as data storage and transfer, were considered. The fulfillment of the five characteristics of disruption was assessed using an example for each of the three applications.
Additionally, the paper might serve as a basis for future research on the topic, once the technology develops further, since it is generally hard to tell whether the fourth and fifth characteristics are fulfilled by blockchain at this point. Therefore, the results of the paper also back criticism of Christensen’s theory regarding its usefulness for predictions.
This paper suggests that, in the financial services industry, too, the impact of blockchain will be significant. However, given the manifoldness of the services that are part of the industry, it cannot generally be concluded whether the DLT will disrupt the industry. For example, in services related to payment methods, blockchain is unlikely to follow disruptive pattern, despite the recent hype surrounding blockchain-based cryptocurrencies. However, regarding data storage and transfer, the technology might as well follow disruptive pattern in the financial services industry just as the application of blockchain solutions has been doing in the healthcare industry.
Today many vertical retailers are operating different sales channels at the same time and are respon-sible for the range of products in all sales channels. The purpose of this paper is to examine whether for vertical fashion retailers a format-specific assortment policy can be observed on the German mar-ket. To investigate this topic in addition to secondary data of a literature research, quantitative prima-ry data was collected through a structured observation by conducting store checks. The combination provides insights into the research topic, allows to build hypotheses and to get a current and specific answer on the research topic. The study revealed all vertical retailers exploit the advantage of unlim-ited capacity of the online shop by offering in this channel mainly the broadest and deepest assort-ment. Within the retail store the vertical retailers focus on offering full-price goods for the current season in full size sets. Compared to the online shop here are less styles sophisticated presented and adjusted on the sales floor. For the outlet channel all brands showed a higher density of products and at least a price reduction of 30 per cent. The present paper is limited by time, depth and language of secondary data collection. As the study only conducted quantitative data within limited observations additional visual data over a longer period is necessary.

Der Halo-Effekt im Fußball
(2019)
Der Halo-Effekt ist eine aus der Sozialpsychologie bekannte kognitive Verzerrung. Er tritt dann auf, wenn ein globaler Eindruck oder eine Information über ein hervorstechendes Merkmal die Beurteilung anderer Eigenschaften prägt. Im vorliegenden Beitrag soll der Frage nachgegangen werden: Gibt es einen Halo-Effekt im Fußball? Überstrahlt der sportliche Erfolg bzw. Misserfolg eines Vereins andere sportliche Aspekte? Verzerrt der sportliche Erfolg bzw. Misserfolg die Wahrnehmung der Fans hinsichtlich nicht-sportlicher Aspekte?
Die meisten Manager-Jobs im Bundesliga-Fußball gehen an ehemalige Spieler. Also an Männer, die ihr Leben früh dem Fußball gewidmet und auf eine spezifische Sportmanagement-Ausbildung verzichtet haben. Bei den Vereinen findet heute ein Umdenken statt - ein erster Club bietet durch ein Konzept ganz neue Möglichkeiten: Der VFB Stuttgart hat mit der "VfB Stuttgart Akademie" ein regionales Netzwerk für Bildung geschaffen, das in Deutschland einzigartig ist.
Das Flaggschiff der VfB Stuttgart Akademie ist der sogenannte "VfB-Master", ein berufsbegleitendes Masterstudium namens "MBA Leadership and Sports Management", das eigens für die VfB Stuttgart Akademie von der HfWU Nürtingen-Geislingen und dem Deutschen Institut für Sportmarketing in enger Abstimmung mit dem VfB Stuttgart maßgeschneidert entwickelt wurde und das die beiden Themen Sport und Wirtschaft auf außergewöhnliche Art und Weise miteinander verknüpft.
Eine hohe Werbewirkung erreichen, die sich durch Kreativität von Wettbewerbern absetzt und das mit geringen finanziellen Mitteln - das ist eine Wunschvorstellung für viele Start-Ups. Doch offen bleibt die Frage nach dem Wie. Eine Möglichkeit, dieses Ziel zu erreichen, bildet das Low Budget Guerilla Marketing.
Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich damit, wie Guerilla Marketing mit einem überschaubaren Budget erfolgreich umgesetzt werden kann. Den Rahmen für die Analyse bildet die Erfolgsfaktorenforschung. Erarbeitet werden entscheidend Erfolgs- und Misserfolgsfaktoren des Low Budget Guerilla Marketing.
In der Vergangenheit ist der Materialfluss meist mit der Produktion gewachsen. Mit steigender Produkt-Individualität erhöht sich die Anzahl der zu fertigenden Varianten in der Produktion und somit die Komplexität der Materialflüsse. Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wurden Möglichkeiten und Methoden zur Aufnahme und Optimierung von Materialflüssen im Zusammenhang mit hoher Variantenvielfalt untersucht.
Die Lage der öffentlichen Haushalte ist aufgrund der Finanz- und Wirtschaftskrise seit geraumer Zeit angespannt. Bereits während des Bundestagswahlkampfs sowie nach dem Wahlsieg der christlich-liberalen Koalition im Jahr 2009 gab es eine hitzige Debatte über die Vereinbarkeit von Steuersenkungen und nachhaltigen öffentlichen Finanzen. Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird die Frage der Finanzierbarkeit von Steuererleichterungen durch zukünftiges Wirtschaftswachstum diskutiert. Auf Basis aktueller Daten und modelltheoretischer Simulationsberechnungen wird ein wirtschaftspolitisch gangbarer Weg zur Umsetzung des Koalitionsvertrages aufgezeigt.
Sole value – the sneaker resale market :
an explorative analysis of the sneaker resale market
(2018)
The purpose of this explorative research paper is to examine the sneaker resale market and its typical processes in order to give a comprehensive overview over the secondary market for limited edition sneakers. Hypotheses are presented that will be analysed with the empirical research methods of expert interviews and sales data analysis. Amongst other findings, this paper shows that there is a complementary relationship between sneaker brands and the resale market; that product limitation is essential for value increases; that collaborations are necessary for sneaker brands to be relevant on the resale market and that the market is very fragmented. All combined circumstances described in this paper explain the sneaker resale market and its processes. Additionally, some outlooks on the future will be given with the help of expert interviewees and current developments on the market will be discussed.
Based on a survey among customers of seven German municipal utilities, we estimate hierarchical multiple regression models to identify consumer motivations for participating in P2P electricity trading and develop implications for marketing strategies for this currently relatively unknown product. Our results show a low importance of socio-demographics in explaining differences between consumer groups, but high influence of attitudes, knowledge and likelihood to purchase related products. The most valuable target groups for P2P electricity trading marketing strategies of municipal utilities first and foremost should aim at are innovators, especially prosumers. They are well-informed about and open minded concerning electricity sharing and highly environmentally aware. They ask for transparency and are willing to purchase related products. They are attracted by the ability to share generation and consumption and to a lesser extent by economic reasons. Our results indicate that the marketing efforts should to a special degree take peer effects into account, as they are found to wield great influence on general openness towards and purchase intention for P2P electricity products. Finally, municipal utilities should build on the high level of satisfaction and trust of consumers and use P2P electricity trading as measure to keep and win customers willing to change their supplier.
