Indicators for Tourist Destinations: A General Assessment
2022
The assessment and monitoring of tourist destinations is now more than ever a prerogative of governments around the world. The contiguous situation caused by the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic is pushing local destinations to adopt new standards that have never been considered until now. In addition, the collapse of tourist demand and the partial recovery of tourist activities could, in the medium term, affect tourist flows, but more importantly the tourist supply, which still suffers from suppliers and producers damaged by the blockage of services and production. The work aims to provide a general assessment of sustainability and competitiveness indicators, describing the work carried o…

Yksilölajien edustajien subjektiiviset kokemukset huippu-urheilu-uran taustalla vaikuttaneista motivaatiotekijöistä
2017
Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää huippu-urheilijoiden henkilökohtaisia kokemuksia siitä, mitkä motivaatiotekijät ovat edesauttaneet heidän uransa jatkumista urheilijapolun eri vaiheissa. Tavoitteena oli saada yksityiskohtaista informaatiota urheilijoiden kokemuksista ja näkemyksistä heidän urheiluaan tukevista asioista. Selvitimme tutkimuksen avulla myös urheilijoiden subjektiivisten näkemysten yhteyttä tunnettuihin motivaatioteorioihin ja aikaisemmissa tutkimuksissa esiin nousseisiin tuloksiin ja havaintoihin. Tutkimuksen kohderyhmänä toimi kuusi suomalaista, 19-27-vuotiasta, urheilijaa, jotka ovat saavuttaneet menestystä niin kansallisella kuin kansainväliselläkin tasolla. Tutkimus…

2017
Master's thesis Information Systems IS501 - University of Agder 2017 Context: Big data has in the recent years been an area of interest among innovative organizations and has started to become a major priority for organizations in general, either through their own big data departments or by purchasing big data analyses from suppliers. Big data analytics means more knowledge from more data sources and is by many prophesied to be a contributing source of big change in how organizations receive their intelligence. Purpose: This thesis investigates the connection between big data and competitive performance. This connection could be explained through the following two paths; 1) how big data ana…
Determination of Optimum Prices in the Commercial Distribution Sector in Spain: Application of an Asymetrical Competition Approach
2011
Teniendo en cuenta la importancia que adquieren las decisiones de precios en la distribución comercial minorista, en este trabajo se propone un modelo de decisión de precios óptimos en el que, a corto plazo, los efectos de los precios óptimos sobre la demanda y los márgenes del distribuidor maximizan la rentabilidad global de la categoría de productos. Tres aspectos fundamentales permiten describir esta propuesta: 1) se basa en una perspectiva agregada; 2) incorpora modelos de cuota de mercado con consistencia lógica -con el fin de aportar mayor robustez a la medición de la demanda- y 3) incluye el papel de la estructura competitiva mediante una modelización explícita de los efectos asimétr…
Towards a routine-based view of interfirm rivalry
2022
Although organizational routines have attracted increasing attention in strategy and organization research, they have received surprisingly limited attention in competitive dynamics scholarship. Our essay seeks to advance a routine-based view of interfirm rivalry by bridging the competitive dynamics and routine literatures. We put forward a conceptual model of the routine-based view of interfirm rivalry that is centered on “competitive action routines.” The model clarifies the roles that managers play in driving a firm’s competitive behavior, challenges the assumption of routine-based rigidity in competitive behavior, and adds nuance to our understanding of managerial cognition in competiti…
A spatial origin‐destination approach for the analysis of local tourism demand in Italy
2023
The article assesses the competitiveness of tourist destinations, while accounting for spatial features of tourism and information on both the origin and the destination of tourists. Using a dynamic spatial panel data model with common factors within the origin-destination framework, it explores unilateral inbound tourism flows in 110 Italian regions from 23 European origin countries over the period 2004-2017. The estimation and test results confirm the need to consider this advanced spatial econometric model. In an empirical application measuring tourism resilience of regions based on this model, the results demonstrate the importance of promoting coordinated actions between neighbouring d…
Institutional Path Dependence in Competitive Dynamics: The Case of Paper Industries in Finland and the USA
2017
Prior research on competitive dynamics has failed to offer tools to understand distorted patterns of competition that emerge from distinct institutional and historical contexts. Our analysis suggests that a joint effect of institutional rules, governance structures, and shared cognition plays a pivotal role in firm-level competitive behavior and capability development. We show how globally significant market positions can result from specific institutional arrangements between firms and governments, especially if coupled with interfirm contractual commitments. Our results call for more attention to these interfirm commitments that are built on formal rules and governmental support, but whos…
