Much of the current literature on healthcare professionals developing management roles has focused almost exclusively upon hopsital doctors. This paper seeks to redress this imbalance and explores the emergence of the professions allied to medicine (PAMs) as clinical managers. A comparative study of 25 English and Scottish radiographer managers were interviewed. From the interviews, a number of themes were developed associated with moving from a clinical professional to a clinical manager and were analysed using domain theory. These themes included management, professionalism, management style, conflicts between the role of both manager and professional, and role change. Radiographer managers are forming new ‘hybrid’ managerial roles, which have been developing within a changing NHS. A definite tension was seen in this role change, and the transition has not been easy for this group of PAMs. However, they have shown resilience in undertaking both operational and strategic management decisions, while using their clinical background in their decision-making and have much to offer the management process.

Homelessness is an issue that impacts more than half a million people in the United States every day. Nonprofits are often on the front lines of efforts to aid individuals without homes. In this study, we focus on an area underexplored in the nonprofit literature, stigma, to explore the nonprofit’s role as a critical catalyst in managing stigma within and among client beneficiaries. Based on our interpretive analysis of interviews and observations of the nonprofit Running for Change (RFC), we delineate how RFC created conditions under which beneficiaries without homes could resurrect former identities and append new identities for themselves as part of the stigma management process. Our work carries implications for prior research on nonprofit organizing related to constituent participation and beneficiary empowerment and opens up new pathways for nonprofit partitioners to think about the agentic capacities of beneficiaries.

Descriptions of activity-based-costing (ABC) systems have become a standard part of managerial accounting texts. While ABC implementation issues are the focus of a number of articles, these issues are often not addressed in a typical textbook. This case is designed to familiarize you with the behavioral and technical variables that can aid or impede successful ABC implementation. Anderson's (1995) factor-stage model provides a template to organize the discussion of ABC success factors. In this case, you will be cast in the role of a business consultant. You are asked to synthesize the case study's key “change management” insights into a report that could be shared with co-workers in an intranetbased knowledge management system. In addition, you may be expected to prepare a formal presentation of the report for your peers.

Understanding what makes people vulnerable to flooding is key in informing the risk management process. Non-structural measures, such as risk communication, can reduce vulnerability by improving flood risk awareness, but they require a deep understanding of which factors influence risk awareness, and how. We analysed and untangled the role of experience with, and knowledge of, floods by conducting a survey in a municipality in North-eastern Italy that was hit by a flash flood in 2018. The results show that previous experience with floods influences risk awareness not only directly, but also indirectly through the knowledge that was gained from that experience. In addition, specific (as opposed to generic) definitions of experience have been found to be better suited for exploring their effects on risk awareness. Based on the literature and on our results, we propose an experience-knowledge typology to help unravel the complex role that these two variables play in shaping flood risk awareness.
