Ovaj rad istražuje važnost društvene odgovornosti u poslovanju kao ključne funkcije u suvremenom menadžmentu i analiza društvenu odgovornost kroz njezine dimenzije te nastoji pobliže prikazati odnos koncepta društvene odgovornosti i menadžmenta. Cilj istraživanja jest ispitati koncept društvene odgovornosti u modernom poslovanju, njegov razvoj i njegov značaj kao neizostavni dio suvremenog menadžmenta. Hipoteze istražuju u prvom redu postojanje moguće povezanosti između primjene društveno odgovornih praksi i pozitivnog utjecaja na reputaciju poslovnog subjekta koji odluči implementirati društveno odgovorne politike.

Pružanjem uvida u navedene elemente ovaj rad nastoji pobliže prikazati ulogu društvene odgovornosti i ulogu menadžmenta kao dva vrlo usko povezana pojma koji mogu ostvarivati određene međusobne utjecaje.Changes in the awareness of the business entity's stakeholders are moving in the direction of giving increasing importance to aspects of business that are part of social responsibility, and in accordance with this, companies are faced with the task of harmonizing their business with the requirements set by the environment. This paper investigates the importance of social responsibility in business as a key function in modern management and analyzes social responsibility through its dimensions and tries to show in more detail the relationship between the concept of social responsibility and management. The aim of the research is to examine the concept of social responsibility in modern business, its development and its importance as an indispensable part of modern management. The hypotheses investigate, first of all, the existence of a possible connection between the application of socially responsible practices and the positive impact on the reputation of a business entity that decides to implement socially responsible policies. The attitudes of consumers who belong to the younger generation groups and which consist of a personal attitude towards the idea of corporate social responsibility are also investigated. By providing an insight into the mentioned elements, this paper tries to show in more detail the role of social responsibility and the role of management as two very closely related concepts that can have certain mutual influences
Intelektualni kapital i upravljanje znanjem u poduzeću
No full textRastući trend vaţnosti intelektualnog kapitala zahtijeva od poduzeća da uloţe stanovite napore u
njegovo upravljanje i da poduzmu odreĎena ulaganja kako bi u potpunosti iskoristili potencijal
koji pruţa intelektualni kapital. Istovremeno raste svijest o vaţnosti znanja u poduzeću i svijest
o mogućnosti korištenja navedenog resursa kao faktora ostvarivanja konkurentske prednosti.
Kako bi poduzeće uspješno upravljalo navedenim resursima potrebno je razviti strategije
upravljanja koje su specifične za navedene koncepte i traţe od menadţmenta stanovite promjene.
Primjenom adekvatne strategije upravljanja poduzeće dolazi u poloţaj u kojem ne samo ostvaruje
bolje poslovne rezultate već i bolji poloţaj u odnosu na konkurenciju

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
