Kurumsal İtibar Yönetimi: “Kiy” Stratejik Bir Dönüşüm Mü?
Full text linkBu makalede tartışılan genel düşünce, baş harfleri kısaltması altındaki KİY’in, 9 milyar dolarlık KİY pazarm kullanılmasında bir öneme sahip olmadığıdır (Jacobs, 1999). KİY, bu makalede (Corporate Reputation Management) Kurumsal İtibar Yönetimine refere edilmiştir. Sık sık kurumsal iletişim fonksiyonları içerisinde kabul edilse de, itibar yönetimi güçlü bir kurum itibarınm oluşturulması ve gücün devamıyla ilgilidir. Bazıları kurumsal itibarı “kurumsal kimlik” olarak tanımlasalar da, diğerleri, daha önceki kayıtlara dayanan “bir organizasyona karşı paydaşların kollektif fikri” olarak tanımlamaktadırlar. İyi bir organizasyon isminin oluşturulması ve güçlendirilmesi, stratejik ve fınansal hedeflerin yerine getirilmesini sağlayacak paydaşlardan pozitif feedback üretilmesi metodu olarak da tanımlandı (Kartalia, 1999). Bir şirketin itibarı ürün ve hizmet satışı, yatırımcıların cezbedilmesi, yetenekli elemanların istihdamı ve hükümet çevresindeki etkinin kullanılması yeteneğini etkiler. Şairler ve halkla ilişkiler profesyonelleri, itibarın, büyümenin saygınlığı, gururun hak edilmesi ve güçlü bir şey olduğunu kabul etmektedirler. Ve bir kez kaybedildiğinde-veya parlaklığını yitirdiğinde- tekrar kazanılması oldukça zordur (Winkleman, 1999)
COVID-19 Disrupts U.S. Higher Education Industry Reimagining the Future
Full text linkAs people and businesses around the world enter the new year, businesses, economists, policy makers and risk management specialists begin to develop a list of existing and new sources of global risks. Ringing in “Year 2020” was no different. But the possibility that, COVID-19 would turn into global pandemic did not make the list. The World Health Organization (WHO) labeled the new virus a pandemic in the beginning of year 2020. China recognized this highly contagious and dangerous virus in December 2019. As we welcomed year 2020, the coronavirus crisis (COVID-19) began to upend the economies, industries as well as the lives of people around the world. Using secondary research sources, I will present the challenges that HEI will face in years to come in the aftermath of COVID-19
BRICS: Rebalancing the New World Order An Impassioned Trajectory
No full textIt has been more than 23 years since Jim O’Neil, head of economic research at the investment bank Goldman Sachs (GS), wrote in an internal policy paper that four countries, Brazil, Russia, India, and China (BRIC). Seeking to attract investors, in his 2001 GS Global Economic Paper No. 66, “Building Better Global Economic BRICs,” O’Neil focused on investment opportunities in four developing countries— Brazil, Russia, India, and China (BRIC), O’Neill further argued that the balance of world economic powers was already tilting in favor of these four countries which he labeled as “BRIC” economies. The BRIC nations embraced the term and invited South Africa In 2010 to join them. Hence the acronym BRIC became “BRICS.”
In this paper, I plan to focus on economic progress of BRICS countries, as reflected in their GDP, international trade, and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). I will illustrate the power of BRICS as well as the global challenges these countries will face in the coming decades in achieving their mission to change the global order
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
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe 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
