    Corporate communications: accounting, linguistics and semiotics

    No full text
    Corporations tend to make many communications about their activities, some of which are required by law and others of which are informative. Needless to say, these corporations wish to make their activities appear in the best possible light. They are therefore carefully crafted to this effect. It is therefore necessary to interpret these corporate communications to get behind the actual words and data reported in order to understand actual implications. Although technical expertise is required to understand the actual financial information being provided, these are always surrounded by words, pictures etc. and this chapter is intended to show how an understanding of appropriate linguistic concepts and the basics of semiotics enables a much fuller understanding of what is being communicated, regardless of the intentions of the corporate representatives creating the communication

    Introduction:managing the Pillars of Sustainable Development

    No full text
    Although it is well known that Brundtland states that there are three pillars of sustainable development and that they should be regarded as of equal importance it is argued that they have not been treated as equal with one pillar always predominating. This chapter re-examines the situation and arrives at a definition of sustainability which the authors argue is workable. They do so by redefining the pillars of sustainability and taking into account the combination of factors along with such issues as risk and uncertainty. This chapter therefore provides an introduction to the topic of the book and serves as a precursor to the ensuing chapters.</p

    Introduction:social entrepreneurs and social change

    No full text
    This chapter discusses the origins of social entrepreneurship and the history. It sets this within our understanding of the current world, postmodern breaks with the norms of the market and definitions and redefinitions of community within society. It discusses a number of features and theories which may explain the way such enterprises have become more significant with society and have permeated the globe. In doing so, this chapter acts as an introduction to this volume and sets the scene for the extended discussions which comprise the remaining chapters in this volume.</p

    Strategic foresight and business analytics: a systematic exploration of mediated impacts on organisational resilience

    No full text
    This study delves into the interrelationships between business analytics (BA), strategic foresight (SF) and organisational resilience (OR) based on the systems theory. The research model was evaluated using Smart PLS 2.0. We found that both BA and SF have positive impacts on OR, explaining 32% of the change in OR. Additionally, BA was shown to have a positive effect on SF. We also discovered that BA partially mediates the relationship between SF and OR. However, no significant mediating effect was found in the relation of BA on OR through SF. These findings reveal the important role BA and SF play in enhancing OR, highlighting the mediating role of BA in the relationship between SF and OR. This research marks a significant advancement in the literature, being the first to establish this unique mediation effect and opens the way for future longitudinal research to validate and expand these findings
