This literature review aims to assess the evolution of performance monitoring articles in relation to the business strategy based on an overview of articles indexed in the WoS and Scopus databases. The initial dataset of articles was obtained based on carefully developed keywords. In the second phase, we restricted the selection to business and management journal articles and reviews written in English before 2019. The authors simultaneously reviewed the abstracts of all 571 articles in the third phase of the study. These were subsequently re-read and limited, thus the final data set for further analysis includes 157 articles published between 1983 and 2019. The most important result is that the field of business strategy and performance is not subject to trends. While in the field of business strategy the literature is still dominated by the generic strategies according to M. Porter and the strategy typology according to Miles and Snow, in the field of performance measurement we identified the Market Position (Sales Volume; growth in Sales Volume; etc.) and Profitability (Profit Margin, Return on Assets etc.) as a dominant method. Implications for Central European audience : Despite a considerable amount of work focusing on bibliographic analysis, there remains a lack of literature on the link between strategy and performance. The paper brings potential value for the Central European audience by drawing attention to the systematisation of knowledge in the field of performance articles and its trends in relation to the field of business strategy. The overview of the theoretical frameworks contributes to a better orientation of the current state of the art and creates opportunities for future research.

A revolutionary advancement of technology in the past decade brought the attention of academics and management practitioners on how to improve the innovative capabilities of organizations. Advice-seeking relationships have an essential role in the knowledge production of modern-day organizations as they enable actors to acquire information, professional support, and knowledge elements they can recombine to form new knowledge. This paper conceptualizes advice-seeking behaviour as part of an inherently complex social world that can best be captured by a multiplex approach to organizational network research. It investigates how different layers of interpersonal relationships in the workplace may contribute to the appearance of advice-seeking interactions. This study examines the cases of three knowledge-intensive organizations and applies binary logistic regression to shed light on the yet invisible relational foundations of workplace collaboration. Implications for Central European audience : Central European countries attempt to improve their economic competitiveness by attracting knowledge-intensive companies as well as incentivizing innovation and digital transformation. Knowledge-intensive firms, such as business services centres or information and communication technology companies, are significant contributors to the economic output of countries like the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Poland. Recommendations derived from the results of this paper provide insights to the leadership of knowledge-intensive companies on how to create organizational environments that foster knowledge sharing and innovation. Measures that promote interpersonal trust, the visibility of expertise, and boundary-spanning behaviour are advised.

This study aims to understand the impact of organizational contingencies such as organizational culture, human resource policies and inter-organizational linkage on financial performance, using the mediating role of crisis management in energy companies in Iraq. To this end, structural equation modelling (SEM) was adopted to test the causal relationships between the study variables. An exploratory design (i.e., a questionnaire) was used to collect data from 379 workers in energy companies in Iraq. The results of this study indicate that organizational contingencies affect financial performance. Besides, crisis management has a complete mediation of the relationship between organizational contingencies and financial performance. From the practitioner's point of view, leaders and practitioners should encourage a creative culture and idea generation to give members enough power to act and focus on goals that support building sustainable organizational capacity. Implications for Central European audience : The findings of this study contribute to providing academics and practitioners with a deep insight into the antecedents of financial performance to develop practices and policies that increase performance.

EU stepped up its efforts to reinforce its presence in the Asian region, especially in the Indo-Pacific region, due to increasing geo-strategic importance for the EU, high mutual interconnectedness, as well as trade and investment engagement. In September 2021, the EU adopted its first Indo-Pacific Strategy. The aim of the paper is to point out the development of the partnership between the EU and the Asian (Indo-Pacific) region based on the evaluation of the analysis of trade and investment cooperation between the EU and India with a focus on mutual trade and investment relations between the Visegrad Group countries and India (and point out the comparative advantages that the V4 countries might use to extend mutual trade cooperation). The paper is based on trade analysis, and empirical methods of RCA and Grubel Lloyd indices were used. There is room for expanding cooperation between the V4 countries and India in deepening intra-industry trade in commodities, where countries have a similar RCA profile. Moreover, the cooperation could complement bilateral relations between both regions. Implications for Central European audience : The paper evaluates V4 competitiveness and assesses V4’s export potential (RCA index) with India and potential trade prospects with India (RCA1) to confirm that there is room for expanding trade cooperation between regions. We consider the V4 countries to be one of the regions that could deepen its mutual relations with India and intensify political dialogue and, therefore, take mutual cooperation and relations to the next level as well as deepen cooperation in the Indo-Pacific region.

The true identity of brands fades with changes in a market environment. Growing concerns regarding the decline of long-established brands have caught the attention of academicians and practitioners both. There is undivided attention witnessed in literature to develop a research framework to identify antecedents and intervening factors and their impact on Brand Revitalization. The primary aim of the study is to categorise identified variables into different approaches and integrate intervening variables to propose a research framework for empirical validation. Based on the systematic literature review approach, 93 studies from more than three decades (1984 to 2021) were undertaken after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria. 62 percent qualitative research and 27 percent empirical and mixed research papers were obtained. A total of 63 variables from 18 empirical studies were categorised into two approaches of ‘Brand re-enchantment’ and ‘Brand modernity’, which significantly influenced brand revitalisation. 9 mediators and 12 moderators were obtained from which ‘Advertising’ was introduced as a mediator for effective brand revitalisation. The research paper provides a and latent signs of brand decline and provide possible revitalization strategies to increase market share, aid in internationalization, and strengthen the perceived brand image of Central European brands. Advertising illustrates the brand’s features, benefits, and uses, which may help in conveying the desired image of brands to the audience of central European countries. demographic variables were also reported. The fifth step involved structuring thoughts and ideas to build an integrated research framework.
