The blockchain technology represents a decentralised database that stores information securely in immutable data blocks. Regarding supply chain management, these characteristics offer potentials in increasing supply chain transparency, visibility, automation, and efficiency. In this context, first token-based mapping approaches exist to transfer certain manufacturing processes to the blockchain, such as the creation or assembly of parts as well as their transfer of ownership. This paper proposes a prototypical blockchain application that adopts an authority concept and a concept of smart non-fungible tokens. The application enables the mapping of complex products in dynamic supply chains that require the auditability of changeable assembling processes on the blockchain. Finally, the paper demonstrates the practical feasibility of the proposed application based on a prototypical implementation created on the Ethereum blockchain.
„Tue Gutes und rede darüber“ lautet eine leicht verständliche Ur-Definition von Öffentlichkeitsarbeit, die längst zu einem Sprichwort geworden ist. Im Laufe der Zeit kamen auf die Public Relations zahlreiche Veränderungen zu: Die Sozialen Medien bewirkten, dass der interaktive Dialog und das Zuhören in den Fokus der PR rückten: „Tue Gutes und lasse andere darüber reden“ war die hierzu passende Aktualisierung. Einer der jüngsten Trends in der PR ist die Nachhaltigkeitskommunikation, die sogenannte „Green PR“, das heißt die Umsetzung glaubwürdiger, nachhaltiger Kommunikationsstrategien. Damit erfährt das Sprichwort ein weiteres Update zu „Tue nachhaltig Gutes und lasse andere dabei mitreden.“
Since half a decade, there has been an increasing interest in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) by business firms. However, academic literature has been lacking attention to RPA, before adopting the topic to a larger extent. The aim of this study is to review and structure the latest state of scholarly research on RPA. This chapter is based on a systematic literature review that is used as a basis to develop a conceptual framework to structure the field. Our study shows that some areas of RPA have been extensively examined by many authors, e.g. potential benefits of RPA. Other categories, such as empirical studies on adoption of RPA or organisational readiness models, have remained research gaps.
Der vorliegende Beitrag schlägt auf Basis der Erfahrungen in der Augenheilkunde mit der SARS-CoV-2-Pandemie in den Jahren 2020 und 2021 einen Leitfaden für den Umgang mit (zukünftigen) Pandemien vor.
Die Kernpunkte:
• Das weltweite Epidemie-Geschehen sollte stets beobachtet werden.
• Deutet sich eine Pandemie an, sollte im ersten Schritt ein Krisenstab eingerichtet werden, der die Pandemielage bewertet und Maßnahmen koordinieren kann.
• Die zu ergreifenden Maßnahmen einer augenheilkundlichen Einrichtung betreffen vor allem die Sicherstellung der Versorgungssituation sowie organisatorische und wirtschaftliche Bereiche, um eine tragfähige Fortführung des Betriebs zu ermöglichen.
Ethik und Personalmanagement
(2022)
Das Personalmanagement beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, wie Mitarbeitende für Unternehmen gewonnen, dort entwickelt und motiviert werden können und wie die Arbeitsbedingungen gestaltet werden. In Theorie und Praxis des Personalmanagements werden differenzierte Teilaspekte betrachtet, wie beispielsweise Personalplanung, Personalmarketing, Beschaffung und Auswahl, Motivation und Vergütung.
Management und Führung sind Funktionen, die in Organisationen benötigt werden, um Aktivitäten und Prozesse zu koordinieren und um immer wieder Veränderungen umzusetzen. Der Beitrag stellt die Unterschiede zwischen Management und Führung dar und bettet diese in den Kontext aktueller Entwicklungen ein. Denn durch die Digitalisierung der Arbeitswelt, die Pandemie sowie die New Work-Bewegung verändert sich die Art und Weise, wie wir zusammenarbeiten. Entsprechend viel wird über Führung und Management diskutiert – auch in der Augenheilkunde. Ziel ist es, dass auf Basis der vorliegenden Überlegungen in den Einrichtungen der Augenheilkunde Management und Führung reflektiert und zielorientiert und zukunftsfähig gestaltet werden können.
In the current age of innovative business financing opportunities available from fintech apps, social media crowdfunding sites such as Kickstarter, Indiegogo, and RocketHub, et.al., and friends and family private equity investors, start-up firms can strategically source their venture capital funds from many globally disperse organizations and individuals. As the firm in this case learned, the benefit of alternative investing sources comes with a critical hidden risk for corporate governance. After a financial restructuring, a typical Silicon Valley software start-up found itself with close to 300 external individual shareholders, some of whom had not been documented as accredited investors. The regulatory agency could decide that the prior actions of the founders and the decisions of the board had been prejudicial to the interests of the minority investors. The management of this small private company faced an atypical investor relations dilemma, before its initial public offering (IPO).
Due to digitalization, constant technological progress and ever shorter product life cycles, enterprises are currently facing major challenges. In order to succeed in the market, business models have to be adapted more often and more quickly to changing market conditions than they used to be. Fast adaptability, also called agility, is a decisive competitive factor in today’s world. Because of the ever-growing IT part of products and the fact that they are manufactured using IT, changing the business model has a major impact on the enterprise architecture (EA). However, developing EAs is a very complex task, because many stakeholders with conflicting interests are involved in the decision-making process. Therefore, a lot of collaboration is required. To support organizations in developing their EA, this article introduces a novel integrative method that systematically integrates stakeholder interests into decision-making activities. By using the method, collaboration between stakeholders involved is improved by identifying points of contact between them. Furthermore, standardized activities make decision-making more transparent and comparable without limiting creativity.
Enterprises are currently transforming their strategy, processes, and their information systems to extend their degree of digitalization. The potential of the Internet and related digital technologies, like Internet of Things, services computing, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, big data with analytics, mobile systems, collaboration networks, and cyber physical systems both drives and enables new business designs. Digitalization deeply disrupts existing businesses, technologies and economies and fosters the architecture of digital environments with many rather small and distributed structures. This has a strong impact for new value producing opportunities and architecting digital services and products guiding their design through exploiting a Service-Dominant Logic. The main result of the book chapter extends methods for integral digital strategies with value-oriented models for digital products and services which are defined in the framework of a multi-perspective digital enterprise architecture reference model.
The digital transformation is today’s dominant business transformation having a strong influence on how digital services and products are designed in a service-dominant way. A popular underlying theory of value creation and economic exchange that is known as the service-dominant (S-D) logic can be connected to many successful digital business models. However, S-D logic by itself is abstract. Companies cannot directly use it as an instrument for business model innovation and design in an easy way. To address this a comprehensive ideation method based on S-D logic is proposed, called service-dominant design (SDD). SDD is aimed at supporting firms in the transition to a service- and value-oriented perspective. The method provides a simplified way to structure the ideation process based on four model components. Each component consists of practical implications, auxiliary questions and visualization techniques that were derived from a literature review, a use case evaluation of digital mobility and a focus group discussion. SDD represents a first step of having a toolset that can support established companies in the process of service- and value-orientation as part of their digital transformation efforts.
