The ethical and moral-based dimension of leadership in CSR-oriented strategies and sustainable entrepreneurship
No full textThis chapter addresses the theme of leadership and its influence on corporate social
responsibility (CSR) and sustainability-oriented strategies. Specifically, it aims to analyse,
through a deductive and literature-based approach, the relevance of the ethical and moral
leadership models with respect to the diffusion of CSR and sustainable entrepreneurship. Linking ethical and moral-based leadership to the CSR and sustainable entrepreneurship discourse allows us to point out the relevance of an authentic orientation in supporting
change and fostering sustainable entrepreneurship The theoretical construct of responsible and sustainable leadership derives from the
intersection of the moral-based leadership concepts with those of CSR and sustainable
entrepreneurship..Drawing from these premises, this chapter seeks to identify leadership models and
attributes consistent with (and necessary to develop) an authentic CSR-oriented strategy
and able to foster sustainable entrepreneurship.
Accordingly, in this chapter, we argue that leadership represents a key aspect that
warrants more research within both CSR and sustainable entrepreneurship studies. The
research questions that orients this study can be summarised as follows: Which leadership
models favour authentic CSR practices? Are moral, ethical-based and virtues-based models
of leadership effective in developing CSR and fostering sustainable entrepreneurship?
These questions guide the critical review of the different leadership approaches, bringing
attention to the models that are most coherent in regard to the actual socio-economic
context which requires managers and entrepreneurs to govern the internal and external
complexity and actively contribute to sustainability. The methodological approach is
mainly based on a literature review that surveys critical points in current literature that is
relevant to the topic.
The work is structured as follows. First, we offer an analysis of the leadership theoretical
framework in the context of the CSR debate. We begin with a brief methodological
note, followed by an analysis of the antecedents of CSR and sustainable entrepreneurship
in terms of values and virtues.
Second, a review of relevant literature on leadership approaches and models consistent
with the CSR and sustainable entrepreneurship discourse is presented, emphasising the relationship between transformational, moral and virtues-based leadership and
CSR-oriented strategies and sustainable entrepreneurship. Drawing from the analysis,
four main propositions are introduced. The final sections illustrate the propositions and
summarise the implications and limitations of the study
Munkahelyi elégedettség és társas kapcsolatok a Maon Református Szeretetotthonban
No full textDolgozatomban a munkahelyi elégedettség és kapcsolati háló összefüggéseit vizsgáltam. Vizsgálatomat a szociometria és munkahelyi elégedettséget vizsgáló kérdőív segítette. A felmérés egy munkahelyi kiscsoportban készült. Hipotézisemben feltételeztem, hogy a munkahelyi elégedettség, megjelenik a kapcsolati hálóban is. A felmérés eredményeként a vizsgált munkahelyen a dolgozók elégedettsége jónak mondható, a szociometriai vizsgálat eredményeként pedig összetartó kiegyensúlyozott csoport képe bontakozik ki előttünk. Összességében tehát vizsgálatomat sikeresnek gondolom, a vizsgálatok összevetése nyomán elmondható, hogy a MAON Református Szeretetotthon dolgozói összetartó, jól funkcionáló csoport képét mutatják, a dolgozók elégedettek munkakörülményeikkel.hbkMentálhigiénészakirányú továbbképzé

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe 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
Full text link“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
Full text linkWe 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
Stakeholder engagement in environmental innovation
No full textThis chapter explains why stakeholder engagement is even more critical for environmental innovation than for traditional innovation, arguing that learning how to successfully engage stakeholders in environmental innovation is one of the most critical levers in transforming our organizations and economy towards environmental, as well as social, sustainability. Five theoretical lenses that that are useful for thinking about stakeholder engagement in innovation are introduced: stakeholder theory, resource-based view, absorptive capacity, institutional logics and dynamic capabilities. The evidence from a systematic review of 88 peer-reviewed articles is synthesized into a framework for stakeholder engagement in environmental innovation, with each element of the framework illustrated with empirical evidence from eight case studies of environmental innovation partnerships. The framework sets out the engagement management, engagement learning and operational capabilities required to engage stakeholders in environmental innovation, as well as the outcomes and benefits of such engagement. Research directions are identified, and guidelines for practices are proposed
