Flow Of Information

The purpose of the article is to create professional guidelines for politicians, managers of organizations of various profiles and levels (national, regional and municipal), who have to take into account in their business practice the presence of uncertainty, turbulence and chaos in their business environment, including its international segment. It is known that administration as a bureaucratic method of management has long been widely used in routine, repetitive processes of business practice. But when the business process becomes more complicated, communications grow, the manager drowns in the flow of information, does not have time to make decisions, when the situation is unexpectedly and constantly changing, the efficiency of administration falls catastrophically and creates new more complex problems. Moreover, the higher the level of a manager, the more time they spend on the administration process, and the more in such cases it becomes a hindrance to development processes, causes them significant harm and becomes a catalyst for the strengthening or formation of new chaotic zones in the business environment. Numerous practical problems associated with attempts of managers to work constructively in chaos zones and effective management in conditions of increased uncertainty and turbulence in the business environment gradually began to form and make it possible to generalize significant experience in this area, called chaos management. The article systematizes the author’s many years of experience as an independent consultant on organizational and strategic development in Russian and foreign companies, which was associated with the search for effective solutions to improve the manageability of a business (company) in the face of constant turbulent changes in the market. The object of systematization is the administration processes for solving problems that arise in the business environment of modern companies, which the business community did not have to deal with so often and regularly early. The essence is that there is a tendency of the need for a significant rethinking of the approach to the work of modern managers-administrators, a revision of their work technologies and the structure of management functionality in a chaordic business environment. New skills of business thinking are required that are adequate to the principles of the theory of social chaos, which describes the features of the behavior of modern nonlinear systems (events), which at first glance seem random, unpredictable and disordered. Otherwise, the administrator will be "pulled" into the chaos zones and by his unprofessional actions will only expand and deepen them, stimulating the diffusion of the zones of instability and instability, i. e. the penetration of chaos into other areas (systems), where it can be claimed or borrowed, but for other purposes.

This article discusses and analyzes the most popular standards of non-financial reporting, which has a significant impact on the transformation of the business environment. Already, domestic and foreign companies with a high level of responsibility are beginning to publish non-financial statements in addition to financial statements, which is an additional tool for communication with stakeholders and a new source of information about their activities. To date, reports of this type are clearly unregulated, there are no verification standards, however, there is already a positive trend and the active introduction of non-financial indicators in the regular reporting of companies.

Flow Of Information

Purpose Technology has profoundly transformed the international business environment, particularly regarding the flow of information and the way in which knowledge is acquired and shared. Yet, the extent of this transformation is still underappreciated. The purpose of this paper is to examine how small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) owner/founders acquire and utilize knowledge for internationalization via internet-enabled platforms. Design/methodology/approach The empirical analysis draws on multiple case study methodology to examine 13 Australian SME owner/founders and the knowledge they acquire from utilization of internet-enabled platforms. Findings The analysis reveals four differing types of internet-enabled experiences: “technical internet-enabled experiences,” “operational internet-enabled experiences,” “functional internet-enabled experiences,” and “immersive internet-enabled experiences.” The findings indicate that internet-enabled experiences can generate both explicit and tacit forms of knowledge for the pre, early and later phases of internationalization. Practical implications The findings provide a structured approach by allowing SMEs to “plot” themselves against the classification of internet-enabled experiences to denote their level of technological involvement, and for discerning the types of knowledge that can be acquired. The findings are particularly helpful for owner/founders, highlighting that internet-enabled platforms are affecting the ways in which knowledge can be acquired and applied to international businesses processes. Originality/value The findings extend the conventional notion of knowledge acquisition for international business by highlighting how information and knowledge can be acquired via internet-enabled platforms. The findings lay the necessary groundwork for building an evidence base and theoretically extending the concept of knowledge acquisition via internet-enabled platforms.

There are statistics that foreign direct investments (FDI) in Albania have significantly declined. Business climate and skill of policies to attract FDI in Albania has apparently not impacted the promotion of investments from foreign businesses. This study assesses the business environment disadvantages and the readiness and availability of foreign investors to take risks with their investments in a foreign market facing the business climate of the host country, as well as the skill or failure of the latter for long term cooperation. Some basic components of the business climate in Albania, impact and their attractiveness to foreign investors will be analyzed and assessed. The research methodology selected for this study is the quantitative one, where a number of about 100 CEO and administrators of medium and big foreign companies in Albania have been planned to be interviewed. The measuring instrument will be standardized and after data collection, a series of analyses will be built such as correlation, means, standard deviations, frequencies, Chi-square (χ2) where the value p00.5. Analysis of variables will be realized through SPSS program. The study will be closed with relevant conclusions and recommendations.

Empirical Material

The paper provides a methodological explanation of the essence of shifting from the native advertising format (advertisement integration) to co-branding (brand alliance) involving companies and influencers (opinion leaders) that interact in the digital environment. Such a shift is interpreted by the authors as a process of strategic development of marketing cooperation in the digital environment, since co-branding involves launching new products to the market and is accompanied by creating new markets and needs. The authors propose their own approach to the issue in hand from the perspective of marketing alliance typology based on the marketing complex model. Differences between advertisement integrations and co-branding are conceptualized following this model. The need to consider influencers’ role in forging brand alliances is explained from the branding theory perspective. Differences between celebrity endorsements marketing and influencer marketing are identified. The proposed methodology is applied to study actual cases of co-branding in the digital environment involving Russian and foreign companies that are associated with shaping a new market of gender-neutral cosmetics. Eventually, a conclusion is made on the need for further study of marketing alliances in the digital space to establish a comprehensive theoretical and methodology foundation and accumulate empirical material on the issue in hand.

The current state of biological knowledge contains an unresolved paradox: life as a continuity in the face of the phenomena of ageing. In this manuscript I propose a theoretical framework that offers a solution for this apparent contradiction. The framework proposed is based on a rethinking of what ageing is at a molecular level, as well as on a rethinking of the mechanisms in charge of the flow of information from one generation to the following ones. I propose an information-based conception of ageing instead of the widely accepted damage-based conception of ageing and propose a full recovery of the chromosome theory of inheritance to describe the intergenerational flow of information. Altogether the proposed framework allows a precise and unique definition of what life is: a continuous flow of biological information. The proposed framework also implies that ageing is merely a consequence of the way in which epigenetically-coded phenotypic characteristics are passed from one generation to the next ones.

The development and implementation of the strategy has long been the focus of scientists and practitioners. But, despite the extensive scientific Arsenal, the tasks facing economic managers do not become easier. In many ways, this situation is due to the fact that in the face of growing uncertainty, which is typical for any, both developed and developing markets, it is increasingly difficult to imagine the «image of the future» and formulate the strategy goals to subordinate the company’s activities to the achievement of these very goals. In a sense, the correct formulation of the problem of long-term development can serve as a foresight, which is used to identify factors that can have an impact on the economy and society in the medium and long term. However, what is the connection of foresight with the setting of goals of the strategy of the industrial enterprise and the choice of mechanisms for the implementation of the chosen strategy – these questions require answers, without which the scientific base of strategic management will not be complete. An attempt is made to find an answer to the question of what hinders industrial development under conditions when the scale of technological modernization is not accompanied by a change in the structure of production. The solution to this problem is proposed to be sought in institutional transformations, on the basis of a theoretical understanding of the laws that determine the technological development of modern industry and the application of the methods of the theory of artificial intelligence systems. The proposed approaches of economic and technological development of territories, states, industries and individual industrial enterprises will allow the most effective financing of investment programs for industrial development.

Anti-Japanese sentiment in China since the Second World War has been exacerbated by recent territorial disputes involving the Senkaku Islands and the natural resources of the East China Sea. The widespread dissemination of anti-Japanese propaganda by the Chinese media has further contributed to this negative image of Japanese corporations. This pervasive climate of anti-Japanese sentiment has forced Japanese companies seeking to expand their businesses abroad to grapple with the unique challenges of navigating the highly politicized environment of Chinese harmonious society. Still, the success of any foreign companies in China fundamentally depends on whether China’s market economy continues to develop in the face of harsh political conditions and growing social unrest. To date, only a handful of studies have addressed the effects of Chinese harmonious society on the performance of Japanese corporations operating in China. This study is an attempt to fill that gap.

Nothing has driven the growth of metro Phoenix more than the sun’s rays. For most of its residents and visitors, the chief reason for coming to the region was its 334 days of annual sunshine, yet precious little of this radiation showed up in the energy supply. Indeed, Arizona has often been held up as an object of shame for the cause of solar power. Despite the bounty of its sun cover, by 2009 the state generated only 7 watts of photovoltaic power (PV) per capita, while New Jersey, with only half the available sunlight, managed 14.6 watts per capita, and Germany, with even less, delivered 100 watts to each person. If the solar industry was to have its long-deferred day in the United States, then the Valley of the Sun had to be at, or near the top, of the location list. Surely, it should be easier to generate “clean electrons” here than almost anywhere else. Yet the dismal historical record shows that the abundance of this natural resource mattered very little in the face of a political and economic environment that has prevented the sun’s energy from being enjoyed by its liberty-loving residents, let alone developed on an industrial scale. For a metropolis in the deepest trough of the Great Recession, the prospect of developing solar industry was just about the only source of boosterism I could find among the business community. Glenn Hamer, president of the Arizona Chamber of Commerce, bragged that, with the help of federal and state incentives currently available, “the cocktail is in place for Arizona to truly be a national and international leader in solar. . . . with our incredible natural advantage, we have just about the world’s best solar resource.” Someone in his position could reasonably be expected to be gung ho about any new local market for investment, but Hamer also happened to be former national director of the Solar Energy Industries Association.
