Purpose: The purpose of the paper is to investigate McDonald’s Corporation and its social structure, environmental influence as well as it’s relationship between the modernist and postmodernist perspectives.  The study attempted to discuss both the modernist and postmodernist perspectives as well as examined McDonald’s Corporation’s various technological innovation of food assembly to draw conclusions. Design/Methodology/Approach:  Data was collected mainly through literature review on both modernist and postmodernist theory in order to understand the complexity of organizational culture, operation and leadership followed by linking them with the management of McDonald’s Corporation.  McDonald’s Corporation was chosen due to its global recognition and their management, marketing style along with profit and financial analysis that have been relevant to both scholars and practitioners.  Results:  The result have supported and with a conclusion that McDonald’s Corporation, like other large organizations follows modernist approach in order to secure their efficiency in production and administration, but at the same time their marketing approach is more of a postmodernist in relations to their cuisine, hyper-reality in franchised restaurant. Originality/Value: The current study is based mainly on modernist and postmodernist perspectives theories as well as secondary data collection from annual reports and peer reviewed scholarly articles of McDonald’s Corporation.

Private Management

Since the late 1990s, the literature of public-private management and publicness have increased, but the genealogy of public-private in a frame of pluralistic definitions has not been studied. This study focuses on ascertaining how the nature and operations of public-private relations influence discursive practices in public-private management, organization, and policy studies. The literature review produced thousands of abstracts (N=2242), but only few articles (N=39) from 22 highly ranked journals (2000-2010). Despite the research of public-private management, it seems that a surprisingly small number of researchers have recognized that the public/private sphere provides a particularly useful approach to evolve organization, management, and policy studies. The only exceptions seem to be anchored by citizenship and especially individualism, “personalized public services.” The authors also found that researchers did not integrate disciplinary traditions in their approaches and link them to different public/private arenas: public in organizations, private in organizations, public in social life, and private in social life. They conclude that the new trends in public-private organizing and management will remain an enigma unless the following is asked: how can the arenas of public/private counteract the effects of themselves?

In effort to reduce the revision burden of total knee arthroplasty (TKA), industry emphasis has focused on replacing manual techniques—which are subject to variability—with technological implements. Unfortunately, technological innovation often continues before adequate time for critical evaluation has passed. Therefore, the purpose of this descriptive literature review was to collect a large sample of international data and report on the clinical and economic efficacy of three major types of technologically assisted TKA: navigation, patient-specific instrumentation, and sensorized trials.

Innovation Processes

Technological innovation is used by many companies as a means of sustaining their competitive advantage. The environments in which this innovation occurs is usually uncertain, therefore, many companies perform technological forecasting in association with their technological innovation processes. While many researchers have studied the innovation process and many more forecasting methods, there is little research connecting the two within the strategic context of the firm. To do this, a model of the forecasting process is needed. The purpose of this paper is to present a model based on a literature review. Previous models which formed the basis for the proposed model will be discussed followed by an explanation of the model and conclusion. Finally, a case study is presented to observe and test the proposed model.

Background: Public healthcare organizations are implementing strategic plans modelling with the supposition that the outcome will be enhancing organizational effectiveness, efficiency and delivered superior healthcare services to its clientele. However, in Practices, a good strategy shall be a call for both actions and blueprint for success in responsive to the need it was formulated to address. The aim of this research is to develop implementation success factors model (ISF) for effective strategic plan implementation in public healthcare organization in developing countries.Methods: The research utilized quantitative approach, a survey design and questionnaire was employed to collect data. The study used Gaskin’s CFA/SEM procedure and applies the SPSS 23 AMOS plugins, pattern matrix model builder (PMMB), master validity (MV), model fit measures (MFM) to validate and determine the interrelationships between variables.Results: Reviewing the literature, 20 variables were identified and implementing success factor (ISF) model with two major factors was developed, CSFs for strategic plan formulation and CSFs for strategic plan implementation. This model, in the order of effect, identified CSFs for strategic plan formulation: structural dimension (0.95), content dimension (0.75), operational dimension (0.34) and context dimension (0.23), CSFs for strategic plan implementation: operational dimension (0.70), structural dimension (0.47), contextual dimension (0.46), content (0.37).Conclusions: The research shows that developing implementation success factors model for effective strategic plan implementation in public healthcare organization in developing countries, it will be plausible to consider CSFs for strategic plan formulation and CSFs for strategic plan implementation. Structural equation modelling/CFA has been run to prove the validity of basic CSFs in this research.
