Images of Intellectual Capital.

2024-05-19T09:31:02Z

by Fazlagić, Jan.
Call Number 331.11090510000002
Publication Date 2016
Summary Intellectual capital (IC) became a hot topic in economic discussion at the turn of this century, believed to offer new principles which could help build the new intangible economy after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the Internet revolution. The early enthusiasm of the 2000s has slightly subsided today, however, though many of the underlying assumptions relating to the importance of intangible assets are still valid. As such, it is much more appropriate today to discuss issues related to IC as 'images of intellectual capital' rather than 'rules'. Intellectual capital explains a plethora of phenomena in today's business organisations, and this book takes a post-modern approach to the issue of IC and offers a selection of different perspectives. They include analyses of intellectual capital in education, business, and in the public sector. The chapters collected here are authored by university professors, business practitioners and students, and investigate such issues as the relative importance of intellectual capital components to tangible components of a company's value, the impact of ICT on IC, the measurement methods for IC, and different forms of communication for the disclosure of IC.

It is often regarded, as the most important element in a destination's management and may induce success or failure. Within this research project, destination image is being assessed in cross-cultural terms. It scrutinises the extent to which destination image is culture specific. In other words, does a destination's image vary across people from different cultural backgrounds? This question evolves and is vindicated in an era that is subjected to globalisation and increasingly r

Cultural Heritage and Tourism in the Developing World [electronic resource] : A Regional Perspective

2024-05-19T09:31:02Z

by Timothy, Dallen J.
Call Number 338.4791091724
Publication Date 2009
Summary Cultural Heritage and Tourism in the Developing World is the first book of its kind to synthesize global and regional issues, challenges, and practices related to cultural heritage and tourism, specifically in less-developed nations. The importance of preservation and management of cultural heritage has been realized as an increasing number of tourists are visiting heritage attractions. Although many of the issues and challenges developing countries face in terms of heritage management are quite different from those in the developed world, there is a lack of consolidated research on this important subject. This seminal book tackles the issues through theoretical discourse, ideas and problems that underlay heritage tourism in terms of conservation, management, economics and underdevelopment, politics and power, resource utilization, colonialism, and various other antecedent notions that have shaped the development of heritage tourism in the less-developed regions of the world. The book is comprised of two sections. The first section highlights the broader conceptual underpinnings, debates, and paradigms in the realm of heritage tourism in developing regions. The chapters of this section examine heritage resources and the tourism product; protecting heritage relics, places and traditions; politics of heritage; and the impacts of heritage tourism. The second section examines heritage tourism issues in specific regions, including the Pacific Islands, South Asia, the Caribbean, China and Northeast Asia, South-East Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, Central and Eastern Europe, the Middle East and North Africa, and Latin America. Each region has unique histories, cultures, political traditions, heritages, issues and problems, and the way these issues are tackled vary from place to place.This volume develops frameworks that are useful tools for heritage managers, planners and policy-makers, researchers, and students in understanding the complexity of cultural heritage and tourism in the developing world. Unlike many other books written about developing regions, this book provides insiders' perspectives, as most of the empirical chapters are authored by the individuals who live or have lived in the various regions and have a greater understanding of the region's culture, history, and operational frameworks in the realm of cultural heritage. The richness of this 'indigenous' or expert knowledge comes through as each regional overview elucidates the primary challenges and opportunities facing heritage and tourism managers in the less affluent areas of the world.

Service Quality Measurement : Issues and Perspectives.

2024-05-19T09:31:02Z

by Rodrigues, Lewlyn L. R.
Call Number 658.8658.812
Publication Date 2013
Summary This book is very useful for it is not just 'descriptive' in its nature, but 'prescriptive', too. It is descriptive in the sense that it describes the process of developing or using a metric in a problem situation, and prescriptive as it clearly prescribes how a beginner can put the theory into practice. In this globalized economy, maintaining quality of products and services has been the thrust area of interest among academicians and practitioners. Today, there are quite a good number of books and research articles available. Nevertheless, service quality measurement has always posed problems, particularly in the context of service industries due to the difficulty in the measurement of the intangibles and implied needs of the customers. The research literature is filled with articles on how to quantify the services, and there are several streams of arguments on the choice of the most ideal approach. However, the research gap lies in the answer to the question: 'Do these measurement instruments concur in their measurement outcomes or do they give different results in the same situation?' This book primarily makes an attempt to answer this question through a case study approach. Even though, there are several instruments for the measurement of service quality, the two most widely used instruments are SERVQUAL and SERVPERF metrics. Comprehensively, this book explains the systematic procedure of using both, the instruments in a service sector, and further, the procedure for conducting a statistical analysis so that one will be able to apply the same in any service sector. It then takes the reader through a series of tests in order to compare the two metrics, and to prove statistically if there is the same outcome in a problem situation. The results are sure to surprise the reader, and trigger the "research bent of mind" to undertake a similar study of such metrics and gain mastery over performing an independent research with very minimal guidance from a professional guide. To conclude, this book is sure to provide adequate inputs for a service quality researcher, and answer various questions wriggling in the mind of a beginner of service quality research such as: How shall I start with service quality measurement? How to collect data? How to select a sample? How to conduct a literature review? How to analyse the data? What research methodology is applicable? How to build hypothesis on my research? How to use statistical procedures? How to present the findings? How to draw implications from the study results?   Biographische Informationen Lewlyn L.R. Rodrigues has 27 years' experience in teaching, research, and administration in several countries. He has successfully guided two students for their Ph.D., and is currently having ten Ph.D. students working under his supervision at Manipal University, India in diversified areas, such as knowledge management, innovation and technology management, manufacturing, service quality, and system dynamics. The author has published a book on system dynamics, entitled 'theory and case studies', about 120 papers in journals and conferences, and won several best paper awards.
