Comparative study between different methods for the efficiency of the production activity in the wood industry
2017
Generally speaking, the quality and cost of goods and in particular of the wood products is a decisive condition in their sales on the market, attracting buyers to satisfy their wishes and requirements. Starting from the general idea, by which it is considered that the manufacturing activity is effective if production is obtained at maximum quality with a low (minimum) cost, or when the revenue from the sale of products exceeds the market expenditure which is necessary to achieve it, this research article aims to study ways to make production more efficient by methods which could also be applied in the wood industry, by presenting a comparative study on production optimization methods in th…
Improving Economic Management Decisions in Forestry with the SorSim Assortment Model
2020
The sustainable supply of timber is one of the most important forest ecosystem services and a decisive factor determining the long-term profitability of forest enterprises. If timber production is to be economically viable, there must always be a way to analyse forest stands and trees felled for exploitation with regard to the wood assortments they contain. Only then can the expected timber yields, achieved by various silvicultural strategies or actions and different sorting options, be quantified with sufficient accuracy. The SorSim assortment simulator was developed for forest practitioners and forest scientists in Switzerland to realistically simulate the sorting of individual trees and …
Sources of Revenues and the Potential of NGOs Conducting Sports-Related Mission
2020
The conditions behind the functioning of non-governmental organisations translate into particular specifics of their resources. According to the Resource Dependence Theory, the ability to acquire and retain resources is the key to survival and development of organisations. However, the structure of the sources from which they are generated may influence the way of functioning and the choice of actions taken up by organisations. Therefore, it was assumed that the share of public funding in total revenues does differentiate NGOs. Thus, the aim of the study was to identify the structure of revenues of NGOs which undertake sports-related tasks as well as to recognise the differentiation of feat…

"Obsługa Wiedzy" w jednostkach szkolnictwa wyższego w Polsce w latach 2005-2015
2018
Transformacji społecznej, prawnej i ekonomicznej w Polsce towarzyszą zmiany w przesłankach tworzenia i funkcjonowania jednostek szkolnictwa wyższego, wymuszając przejmowanie przez instytucje naukowe i kulturotwórcze cech ąuasi-przedsiębiorstw o charakterze korporacyjnym, opartych na regułach gry rynkowej. Analiza złożoności wewnętrznej struktury poszczególnych elementów systemu szkolnictwa wyższego wymaga jednocześnie uwzględnienia ich „uwikłania” w otoczeniu dalszym i bliższym, opartego na sytuacji polityczno-prawnej, demograficznej i finansowej. Celem artykułu jest próba analizy działania publicznych i niepublicznych jednostek szkolnictwa wyższego w Polsce z punktu widzenia wybranych elem…
Quality culture boosts agile transformation : Action research in a business‐to‐business software business
2023
Agile methodologies are sometimes adopted, with the assumption that benefits can be attained by only using a set of best practices, which can sometimes work to a degree. In this paper, a case is discussed where a software-producing organization of seven teams achieved significant improvements. The goal of the research was to answer two questions: how an already agile organization could improve its performance further and what is the impact of promoting quality aspects? The questions were answered by implementing interventions based on prior literature and data emerging from semi-structured interviews. The context was an established business with a complex revenue stream structure, meaning t…

We studied the implications of the use of social media by the board members by using structural equation modeling (SEM). The data consisted of a random sample of 100 companies listed on the NASDAQ. The study makes two main contributions. First, it shows interesting differences in the use of social media for the operating revenue. Our results suggest that while Twitt…
