Ethical preferences for influencing superiors: A 41-society study

2009

With a 41-society sample of 9990 managers and professionals, we used hierarchical linear modeling to investigate the impact of both macro-level and micro-level predictors on subordinate influence ethics. While we found that both macro-level and micro-level predictors contributed to the model definition, we also found global agreement for a subordinate influence ethics hierarchy. Thus our findings provide evidence that developing a global model of subordinate ethics is possible, and should be based upon multiple criteria and multilevel variables.

Joint route planning under varying market conditions

2007

PurposeTo provide empirical evidence on the level of savings that can be attained by joint route planning and how these savings depend on specific market characteristics.Design/methodology/approachJoint route planning is a measure that companies can take to decrease the costs of their distribution activities. Essentially, this can either be achieved through horizontal cooperation or through outsourcing distribution to a logistics service provider. The synergy value is defined as the difference between distribution costs in the original situation where all entities perform their orders individually, and the costs of a system where all orders are collected and route schemes are set up simulta…

Moraltheologische Probleme der pluralistischen Gesellschaft nach Amoris laetitia am Beispiel von Oberschlesien

2017

Posynodalna adhortacja apostolska o miłości w rodzinie Amoris laetitia jest owocem i inspiracją do pogłębionej refleksji na temat złożonych problemów życia małżeńskiego i rodzinnego. W teologii refleksja ta powinna być wierna tradycji Kościoła, ale zarazem mocno związana z rzeczywistością. Oznacza to jedność nauczania i działania w zakresie rozumienia współczesnych problemów małżeństwa i rodziny oraz poszukiwania konkretnych rozwiązań duszpasterskich w tym względzie, co nie przeszkadza różnorodności sposobów interpretacji pewnych aspektów nauczania lub niektórych wynikających z niego konsekwencji. Z racji różnorodności tradycji i wyzwań w poszczególnych krajach i regionach, papież Francisze…

The United Citizens Organization: Public-private partnerships in global governance

2020

Abstract Can Public-Private Partnerships be applied to global affairs and governance? This paper reviews the existing relations between public and private global actors. I argue that current international politics is largely an outcome of these relations. Although for the foreseeable future the role of traditional nation-states on the global scene should not be dismissed, they come under the constant pressure of different private actors, particularly of MNCs and NGOs. If this is the case, the question of global responsibility must be raised. It has been the traditional role of governments to stand for such societal values as security and prosperity, and be responsible for their citizens. Wi…

University–industry partnerships for the provision of R&D services

2015

Technology Transfer Offices (TTOs) are the main institutions responsible for the establishment of university–industry partnerships. R&D contracts exemplify the indirect mechanisms through which enterprises and universities collaborate on a win–win basis. This study addresses organizational and institutional aspects that act as drivers for the establishment of successful university–industry partnerships. First, a series of regression models explain the determinants of R&D contracts. These models include two main dimensions: the university and the technology transfer office. Second, further analysis empirically explores whether universities in regions with a favorable environment enjoy greate…

Imbalance of Power: Social Service Entrepreneurss Experiences of Entrepreneur-Municipality Relationship

2014

We investigate the complex dynamics between social service entrepreneurs and social sector managers through the lens of network metaphor, utilizing our data on social service entrepreneurs’ experiences of cooperation with municipalities. We examine what kinds of dependencies exist in the entrepreneur–municipality relationships and what kind of consequences these dependencies have on social service businesses run by entrepreneurs. Basing on the social service entrepreneurs experience, our findings suggest that while the cooperation with the municipality represents a prerequisite for success, their business represent only one alternative for the renewal of social service structures from the p…
