Universal rapid method of assessment and management decision-making of situational problems in the enterprise

Situational approach in management does not lose its relevance for a hundred years. During this time he constantly developed, being a part of various concepts, methodologies, methods, techniques and other forms of theoretical and practical implementation of scientific thought in different areas of human activity. The results of the analysis of scientific sources in the article over the past eight years confirmed the presence of the situational approach unlimited development potential. As one of the ways to develop the situational approach, the authors propose a new method of evaluation and management decision-making problems of a situational nature in the enterprise. In contrast to the existing methods, the proposed method is characterized by a high level of efficiency and versatility. The methodology provides decisions to the problems of situational nature of the three categories of complexity. For each category there are special forms in the form of different hierarchies. To reduce the number of possible errors and improve the efficiency of the methodology implementation, a special algorithm, as well as the necessary instructions for users, have been developed and presented. In addition, various information technologies are provided as tools for the implementation of the methodology. The method of analysis of T. Saati hierarchies was used as the core of the new method. The method of decision-making by Benjamin Franklin was adopted as a complement of the method. The final part of the article presents the results of testing the proposed method. In the majority of users of a technique really noted its universal and express properties. Thus, according to the results of testing at the enterprises, the technique is recognized as effective and viable.

There is a high level of interest and debate among academics and the business community regarding the future of electronic business. In recent times there has been considerable disillusionment with the losses and negative returns associated with many e-business investments. However, the move towards e-business enablement seems inevitable for reasons of efficiency and effectiveness. Developments in e-business should be of considerable interest to marketing strategists, as they impact on business networks and affect the nature of relationships between organisations and between an organisation and its customers. Business and marketing strategists would benefit from a better understanding of the incentives and inhibitors accruing at each stage of the evolutionary path to an e-business enabled future. Based on recent research, this paper proposes the use of two frameworks that may be used to stimulate management discussion, aid management decision-making and plan progressive moves into e-business.

Main Effects

The dependence of management decisions on information support is not a debatable issue for a long time. However, the changing quality of information creates both new challenges and new opportunities in the information and analytical field. The decision-making process, which would seem to be facilitated by digitalization, is actually becoming more complicated. As one of the main effects of digitalization, we note the apparent availability of information. In fact, simple facts that create an information network no longer become, moreover, they become smaller, or rather, their availability decreases. The necessary information sinks in the ocean of information noise. Echo chambers and filter bubbles exacerbate this problem. At the same time, the possibilities provided by the effects of echo cameras and information bubbles remain low.

Management decision-making tasks are usually characterized by a high level of uncertainty. When solving this class of problems, it is necessary to take into account the environmental conditions for the implementation of the decisions made and the consequences that may arise in this case. The decision-making task in the face of uncertainty can be represented in the form of a “game with nature”, in which the optimal player strategy is sought. A two-stage decision-making process is considered, in which at each stage the decision-making problem is solved in conditions of risk. The case is supposed in which, after making a decision at the first stage, choosing an effective alternative and the onset of a certain state of nature, it is necessary to solve the decision-making problem of the second stage. Decision-making models based on well-known decision models of the “game with nature” are proposed. The developed models allow in the process of choosing an effective alternative to the first stage to assess the possible consequences of such a choice, taking into account the expectations of the decision maker. In the course of experimental verification, it is shown that the developed decision-making models can be used to solve such multi-stage problems, the phased solution of which is incorrect. This may occur due to the fact that some of their stages are associated with certain losses, and others – with profit. In such situations, it is advisable to consider the problem as a whole and at each stage, take into account all available information as much as possible.

Management Decision Making

The issues of the methodology for developing regional strategies have been considered in three aspects: firstly, from the position of restrictions on the use of traditional strategic planning schools in relation to the regional socio-economic systems; secondly, in the context of the characteristics of the region as an object of strategic planning; thirdly, taking into account modern realities of information technology development and management decision-making tools. It has been it has been revealed, that traditional strategic management schools take into account only a certain aspect of strategizing and have limited application for regional systems. The peculiarities of the region have been have been disclosed as an open complex system, occupying an intermediate level in the public administration system, characterized by a non-linear development and informational openness of management.The complex nature of a region affects the fact, that a regional strategy is a mechanism for coordinating the long-term interests of various stakeholders of a territory. This happens both through their participation in determining strategic priorities and selecting specific strategic projects at the goal setting stage, and through the use of special model tools, which are characterized by the presence of built-in interaction loops for different classes of economic situations and allowing them to adapt their resource strategies while agreeing on common goals of functioning. It has been ascertained, that the current stage of economic development is characterized by features related to the development of information technologies and management decision-making tools, which determines the need to expand the methodological and methodical base of the regional strategic planning.In total, the analysis shows, that in the context of the adaptive behavior of economic agents of the region, the uncertain external and internal environment, traditional methodological approaches and methodical tools become of little use in the actual practice of regional governance. The effective direction of improving the methods of strategic planning in these conditions is the use of adaptive management and simulation modeling technologies based on modern information technologies.

The Relationship

Abstract. Based on responses from 158 reward managers located at the headquarters or subsidiaries of multinational enterprises, the present study examines the relationship between the centralization of reward management decision making and its perceived effectiveness in multinational enterprises. Our results show that headquarters managers perceive a centralized approach as being more effective, while for subsidiary managers this relationship is moderated by the manager’s role identity. Referring to social identity theory, the present study enriches the standardization versus localization debate through a new perspective focusing on psychological processes, thereby indicating the importance of in-group favoritism in headquarters and the influence of subsidiary managers’ role identities on reward management decision making.
