This chapter investigates technology adaptation in Croatian companies in connection to organizational changes. Furthermore, this chapter investigates how levels of ownership concentration in Croatian companies form patterns of organizational change. Organizational change is conceptualized as changes in technology, organizational structure, organizational culture, strategy, changes in employees’ structure and changes in products and services. The above-mentioned patters of organizational change are analyzed in terms of their frequency and effects on corporate performance. In this empirical analysis, the authors take in consideration three forms of organizational control: (1) control by one dominant shareholder; (2) control by coalition of several large blockholders and (3) managerial control. Each type of control corresponds with ownership concentration measured with percentage of capital held by the largest shareholder. This chapter observes how different levels of ownership concentration and control influence determinants of organizational change.

Abstract Organizations are increasingly looking to convert from facility-based services for adults with developmental disabilities to individualized supports. Such conversion involves not only a change in services but a transformation of organizational culture. This qualitative study involved four organizations that have made sustained efforts to transform. Although the approach taken by each organization was unique, there were also some common strategies, which included generating commitment to common values and mission, a turn or return to authentic person-centered planning, shifting power and control, using community supports and relationships, moving away from facility-based settings, and nurturing staff engagement. Ultimately, organizational change is an ongoing process that requires organizational perseverance and commitment.

Ukraine is a unitary state, yet historically various regions, oblasts, districts, and local areas have different levels of economic development. To secure sustainable economic and social development and provide social services guaranteed by the state for each citizen according to the Constitution, the mechanism of redistribution between revenues and expenditures of oblasts, regions, and territories through the budgets of a higher level is used. The paper aims to research the peculiarities of improving interbudgetary relations in conditions of authorities’ decentralization. The paper defines the nature of interbudgetary relations. The basic and reverse subsidies to Ukraine and Lvivska oblast are analyzed. The advantages and disadvantages the communities face at changing approaches to balancing local budgets are determined. Regulative documents that cover the interbudgetary relations in Ukraine are analyzed. Special attention is paid to the problem of local finances reforming, including the development of interbudgetary relations. The scheme of the economic interbudgetary relations system in Ukraine is developed. The ways to improve the system of interbudgetary relations in Ukraine are suggested. The negative and positive aspects, advantages, and disadvantages of the system of interbudgetary relations in Ukraine require the following improvements. 1. It is necessary to avoid the complete budget alignment in the process of budgets balancing by interbudgetary transfers as the major objective. 2. The interbudgetary transfers should be distributed based on a formal approach. 3. The changes have to be introduced to the calculation of medical and educational subsidies in terms of financial standard of budget provision to avoid the money deficit for coverage of necessary expenditures. 4. There is a need to improve interbudgetary relations at the levels of districts, villages, towns, and cities of district subordination. 5. Improvement of the mechanism of targeted benefits provision, their real evaluation, and control for the use of funds.

This study assessed the effects of Methylcellulose (MC) at different concentrations on plant-based meat analog (PBMA) patties, comprised of commercial texture vegetable protein (C-TVP) and textured isolate soy protein (T-ISP) as key ingredients, and compared to beef patty control. A significantly higher difference was observed in moisture content in control with increasing MC concentration than the C-TVP and T-ISP patties. However, protein varied significantly among three different protein sources, with control had higher protein content than PBMA patties. Crude fiber content recorded higher values in C-TVP as compared to control. Significantly lower pH values were recorded in control than C-TVP and T-ISP respectively. Regardless, with the addition of MC or ingredient PBMA and control patties tend to reduce lightness (L*) and redness (a*) value after cooking. Although control sample before cooking exhibits lighter and redder than PBMA patties (C-TVP and T-ISP). Likewise, water holding capacity (WHC) decreases as the concentration of MC increases (1.5–4%) in control and PBMA patties. Warner-Bratzler shear force (WBSF) and texture profile analysis (TPA), including hardness, chewiness, and gumminess of control, were significantly higher than C-TVP and T-ISP. Consequently, panelists’ in the sensory analysis presented that C-TVP patties containing 3% of MC had better sensory properties than T-ISP. Hence, PBMA patties with C-TVP and incorporation of 3% MC are considered ideal for manufacturing of meat analog as related to control (beef).

В статье рассматривается 12 принципов Beyond Budgeting, предложенные Дж. Хоупом и Р. Фрейзером, и особенности их применения к управлению многоквартирными домами. Анализируется возможность внедрения Beyond Budgeting не только в управляющих организациях, но и при непосредственном управлении многоквартирными домами и создании товариществ собственников жилья. Результаты внедрения принципов Beyond Budgeting (изменение организационной культуры) анализируются по модели McKinsey 7S. Рекомендации по внедрению Beyond Budgeting даются в рамках теории организационных изменений М. Бира и Н. Нориа. Положительный опыт внедрения принципов Beyond Budgeting в ООО УК «Маяк» позволяет рекомендовать управление за рамками бюджетирования другим организациям, осуществляющих предпринимательскую деятельность по управлению многоквартирными домами в России. The article examines the 12 principles of Beyond Budgeting , proposed by J. Hope and R. Fraser, and the peculiarities of their application to the management of multi-apartment buildings. The possibility of introducing Beyond Budgeting is analyzed not only in management organizations, but also in the direct management of apartment buildings and in creation of a homeowners' association. The results of the implementation of the principles of Beyond Budgeting (change in organizational culture) are analyzed according to the McKinsey 7S model. Recommendations for the implementation of Beyond Budgeting are given in the framework of the theory of organizational change by M. Beer and N. Noria. The positive experience of implementing principles of Beyond Budgeting at OOO Management Company ‘Mayak’ allows us to recommend Beyond Budgeting management to other organizations carrying out entrepreneurial activities in the management of apartment buildings in Russia.

This study examined whether the exerciser stereotype extends to moderately and excessively active individuals, and if the rater's self-described exercise status moderates the effect. Using a 2 (exercise status) x 5 (target type) design, 456 participants read a description of a typical exerciser, a nonexerciser, an active-living target, an excessive exerciser, or a control target and rated her on 12 personality and 8 physical dimensions. MANOVAs revealed a significant main effect for target type on both personality and physical dimensions (ps < .05). For most of the personality attributes, the exerciser and active-living target were rated more favorably than were the excessive exerciser, nonexerciser and control. For the physical attributes, the typical exerciser, active-living target and excessive exerciser were rated more highly than were the nonexerciser and control. The exercise status x target type interaction was significant for only three physical dimensions. Overall, results indicate that the exerciser stereotype exists regardless of the rater's exercise status and can generalize to different levels of physical activity.
