Anwendung und Umsetzbarkeit von agilem Change Management
No full textAngesichts der zunehmenden Dynamik und Unsicherheit im Geschäftsumfeld stellen kontinuierliche Veränderungsprozesse eine zentrale Herausforderung dar. Diese Masterarbeit untersucht, wie sich agile Prinzipien in das klassische Change Management (CM) integrieren lassen, um Veränderungsprozesse flexibler, adaptiver und wirkungsvoller zu machen. Agilität wird dabei als übergreifendes Organisationsprinzip verstanden, das Unternehmen hilft, schneller auf Veränderungen zu reagieren. Im Fokus steht die Frage, inwiefern agile Grundhaltungen, Mindsets und Methoden dazu beitragen, Widerstände gegenüber organisatorischen Veränderungen zu minimieren und welche Strategien eine erfolgreiche Anwendung in verschiedenen Unternehmenskontexten unterstützen können. Auf Basis einer umfassenden Literaturrecherche aktueller wissenschaftlicher Publikationen, Fachbücher und Praxisberichte werden klassische und agile CM-Modelle systematisch verglichen, um Synergien und Unterschiede zu identifizieren. Die Analyse zeigt, dass Agile Change Management (ACM) insbesondere in dynamischen, unsicheren und komplexen Unternehmensumfeldern eine hohe Anwendbarkeit besitzt. Durch iterative Prozesse, enge Mitarbeiter:inneneinbindung und eine adaptive Steuerung kann ACM zu einer schnelleren und nachhaltigeren Veränderungsakzeptanz führen. Wesentliche Erfolgsfaktoren sind eine unterstützende Unternehmenskultur, flache Hierarchien, eine offene Fehler- und Lernkultur sowie die Bereitschaft des Managements, Entscheidungsbefugnisse zu dezentralisieren. Ohne diese Voraussetzungen kann ACM auf Widerstand stoßen oder seine Potenziale nicht vollständig entfalten. Zudem setzt ACM einen tiefgreifenden Wandel in der Führungskultur voraus, bei dem traditionelle Top-Down-Entscheidungen durch eine partizipative, vertrauensbasierte und iterative Führungsweise ersetzt werden. Abschließend lässt sich festhalten, dass ACM ein wirkungsvolles Instrument für Veränderungsprozesse sein kann, dessen Erfolg jedoch maßgeblich davon abhängt, inwiefern Organisationen bereit sind, ihre bestehenden Strukturen und Denkweisen anzupassen.In view of the increasing dynamics and uncertainty in the business environment, ongoing change processes pose a central challenge. This master's thesis examines how agile principles can be integrated into traditional change management (CM) to enhance flexibility, adaptability, and effectiveness in change processes. Agility is understood as an overarching organizational principle that helps companies to react more quickly to change. The study focuses on how agile attitudes, mindsets, and methods can reduce resistance to organizational change and which strategies support their successful implementation across different corporate contexts. A comprehensive literature review of recent scientific publications, specialized books, and practical reports systematically compares traditional and agile CM models to identify synergies and differences. The analysis shows that agile change management (ACM) is particularly applicable in dynamic, uncertain, and complex corporate environments. By leveraging iterative processes, active employee involvement, and adaptive management, ACM fosters faster and more sustainable change acceptance. Key success factors include a supportive corporate culture, flat hierarchies, an open error and learning culture, and the willingness of management to decentralize decision-making powers. Without these conditions, ACM may face resistance or fail to reach its full potential. Moreover, ACM necessitates a fundamental shift in management culture, replacing traditional top-down decision-making with a participative, trust-based, and iterative approach. Ultimately, ACM can be a powerful tool for managing change, but its success largely depends on an organization’s willingness to adapt its existing structures and mindsets.Masterarbeit Wien, Fachhochschule des BFI Wien 202

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
