PurposeA strategic response to crisis research is a critical and growing area of study in management and business literature. Consequently, the sudden rise of COVID-19, that has a substantial adverse impact on the global economy in a relatively short period of time, brings into sharp focus on the possible and most effective types of strategic responses adopted by firms. In this context, this study aims to shed light on the types of strategic responses adopted by firms and the possible outcomes.Design/methodology/approachTo contribute to the advancement of knowledge around strategic responses in general for business, this study conducted a keyword bibliometric analysis reviewing 66 articles from highly ranked journals according to ABS list of journals published between the period 2006–2020 and synthesize the existing research on strategic responses.FindingsThis research enabled the identification of the novel typology of strategic responses to the crisis, such as revived stakeholders’ relationships, revived pricing mechanisms and revived organizational compliance, and their outcomes. Additionally, the analysis established many research areas for scholars who will deal with this topic in the future.Originality/valueThe literature review contributes to the management and business literature by providing a novel and comprehensive classification of crisis responses and synthesizing all new knowledge gained within a new conceptual framework.
在管理和商业文献中,对危机的战略反应研究是一个关键且不断发展的研究领域。因此,2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的突然上升在相对较短的时间内对全球经济产生重大不利影响,这促使人们高度关注企业采取的可能和最有效的战略应对措施。在这种背景下,本研究旨在阐明企业采取的战略反应类型和可能的结果。设计/方法/方法为了促进企业战略应对知识的进步,本研究对2006-2020年期间发表的ABS期刊列表中排名较高的期刊中的66篇文章进行了关键字文献计量分析,并综合了现有的战略应对研究。研究结果:该研究确定了危机应对战略的新类型,如恢复利益相关者关系、恢复定价机制和恢复组织合规,以及它们的结果。此外,该分析还为学者们今后处理这一课题建立了许多研究领域。独创性/价值这篇文献综述对管理和商业文献做出了贡献,它提供了一种对危机应对的新颖而全面的分类,并在一个新的概念框架内综合了所有获得的新知识。

Organization development and cultural values of trust in international contexts 国际背景下的组织发展和信任文化价值观

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to address the call for empirical research on trust and culture highlighted in the existing literature. This study empirically investigates the underlying cultural values of trust across multiple countries – the term used to describe specific cultural environments that have the potential to influence the way in which people demonstrate trust toward others – and then documents their subsequent influences on the success of organization development (OD) efforts in international contexts.Design/methodology/approachUsing data from multiple sources, this study conducts a series of empirical tests to investigate the underlying cultural values of trust in a large sample of 42 countries over the past 20 years (2000–2020). Then, the study further extends the findings to propose an empirically developed framework, namely, a country classification, which can be used to assess whether cultural environments in a specific country appear to support or impede trust behavior and the likelihood of success in implementing OD initiatives and interventions in international contexts.FindingsTrust is robustly related to cultural values. Specifically, people from countries with high power distance and uncertainty avoidance cultures tend to exhibit less trust in others, whereas those from countries with high individualistic and long-term oriented cultures are more likely to trust others. The country classification further demonstrates that Estonia, Germany, Sweden and the Netherlands are the group of countries whose cultural values appear strongly consistent with the underlying cultural values of trust, implying a greater likelihood of success for OD efforts and interventions. On the other hand, Colombia, Egypt, Iraq, Libya and Mexico are the group of countries whose cultural values appear to differ significantly from the underlying cultural values of trust, suggesting potential obstacles for successful OD efforts and thus appropriate modifications of OD interventions are essentially needed. The results for other countries are also discussed.Practical implicationsThe findings offer several practical implications for the community of OD consulting, especially those who work internationally in cross-national consulting projects or deal with culturally diverse organizations. These include a more sophisticated understanding of the cultural environments that support or impede the willingness to trust in a specific foreign country, an evidence-informed strategy to design or adopt appropriate OD interventions that align with the cultural environments of a foreign country and a framework to assess and improve the likelihood of successful OD interventions in international contexts.Originality/valueTo the author’s best knowledge, this is the first study to conduct an empirical examination of the influence of culture on trust in a comprehensive manner, subsequently providing a transitional bridge between two major strands of trus
本研究的目的是回应现有文献中对信任与文化实证研究的呼吁。本研究实证调查了多个国家信任的潜在文化价值——这个术语用来描述特定的文化环境,这些文化环境有可能影响人们向他人展示信任的方式——然后记录了它们对国际背景下组织发展(OD)努力成功的后续影响。设计/方法/方法本研究使用来自多个来源的数据,进行了一系列实证测试,以调查过去20年(2000-2020年)42个国家的大样本中信任的潜在文化价值。然后,该研究进一步扩展了研究结果,提出了一个实证开发的框架,即国家分类,该框架可用于评估特定国家的文化环境是否支持或阻碍信任行为以及在国际背景下实施OD倡议和干预措施的成功可能性。信任与文化价值观密切相关。具体而言,来自高权力距离和不确定性回避文化的国家的人往往对他人表现出较少的信任,而来自高度个人主义和长期导向文化的国家的人更有可能信任他人。国家分类进一步表明,爱沙尼亚、德国、瑞典和荷兰这组国家的文化价值观似乎与信任的基本文化价值观非常一致,这意味着OD的努力和干预措施取得成功的可能性更大。另一方面,哥伦比亚、埃及、伊拉克、利比亚和墨西哥这组国家的文化价值似乎与信任的基本文化价值有很大不同,这表明对成功的宣传工作存在潜在障碍,因此基本上需要适当修改宣传干预措施。对其他国家的结果也进行了讨论。实际意义这些发现为OD咨询界提供了一些实际意义,特别是那些在跨国咨询项目中工作或与文化多样化的组织打交道的人。这些包括对支持或阻碍特定外国信任意愿的文化环境的更复杂的理解,基于证据的策略来设计或采用与外国文化环境相一致的适当的OD干预措施,以及评估和提高国际背景下成功的OD干预可能性的框架。原创性/价值据作者所知,这是第一个全面地对文化对信任的影响进行实证检验的研究,随后在当前OD文献中的两大信任研究分支之间提供了一座过渡桥梁:信任是成功的OD努力的必要基础,信任意愿可以通过文化领域来解释。其次,本研究对国际背景下的信任行为进行了探索,并对文化对信任的影响进行了国家分类,这两个方面在以往的研究中都没有完成。

Informal financing or debt traps: are the UN sustainable development goals being met in emerging economies? 非正式融资还是债务陷阱:新兴经济体实现了联合国可持续发展目标吗?
IF 3.1 Q2 Business, Management and Accounting Pub Date : 2021-11-05 DOI: 10.1108/ribs-01-2021-0011

PurposeThis paper aims to provide new insights into the financing system used in emerging economies and how they related to UN Development Goals for sustainable development. The study focuses on small businesses’ informal financing options and whether these lead the borrower into a debt trap.Design/methodology/approachThe study uses the example of small-medium fisheries in Indonesia to highlight the formal/informal financing options availed by the businesses and their relationship with the lender. The authors use the qualitative method with a phenomenology approach and interview key stakeholders in the sector.FindingsThe authors find that the set interest repayments and the checks and balances involved in judging the borrower’s creditworthiness make the formal due to the strict requirements. Instead, the fishermen rely on the informal financing system and borrow from the mapak – a person who lends money on the condition that the fishermen’s catch will be sold to the lender as repayment.Research limitations/implicationsThis study focuses on the financing system in emerging economies. Using the coastal business areas in the Indonesian fishing sector, the authors highlight the informal financing system and the potential debt trap. Future research could extend and study this issue in other industries and geographic regions to test whether emerging economies meet their targets and commitments under the UN Sustainability Development Goals. Emerging markets like Indonesia have a unique model of financing system and their business structure. Three conditions are highlighted in the financing system of business in coastal areas, namely, informal financing, close market access and social capital.Originality/valueThis study addresses financial inclusion and whether the UN Sustainability Development Goal 8 is being met in emerging economies. The study is one of the few to address this issue and highlights that emerging economies are yet to take concrete steps to make the formal financing sector more inclusive to achieve poverty alleviation.
本文旨在为新兴经济体使用的融资体系及其与联合国可持续发展目标的关系提供新的见解。这项研究的重点是小企业的非正式融资选择,以及这些选择是否会导致借款人陷入债务陷阱。设计/方法/方法本研究以印度尼西亚中小型渔业为例,强调企业可利用的正式/非正式融资选择及其与贷方的关系。作者使用定性的方法与现象学的方法和采访的关键利益相关者在部门。研究发现,在对借款人的信用进行判断时,所涉及的固定的利息偿还和制衡由于其严格的要求而变得正式。相反,渔民们依靠非正式的融资系统,向mapak借钱。mapak是一种借钱的人,条件是渔民将渔获物卖给贷款人作为偿还。研究局限/启示本研究聚焦于新兴经济体的融资体系。作者以印度尼西亚渔业部门的沿海商业区域为例,强调了非正式融资体系和潜在的债务陷阱。未来的研究可以在其他行业和地理区域扩展和研究这个问题,以测试新兴经济体是否实现了联合国可持续发展目标下的目标和承诺。印尼等新兴市场拥有独特的融资体系模式和业务结构。沿海地区企业融资体系突出三个条件,即非正规融资、市场准入和社会资本。原创性/价值本研究探讨了普惠金融以及新兴经济体是否正在实现联合国可持续发展目标8。该研究是解决这一问题的少数研究之一,并强调新兴经济体尚未采取具体步骤,使正式融资部门更具包容性,以实现减贫。

PurposeThe manuscript reflects on the future of higher education from an emerging country perspective. The authors specifically answer how new education policies, ranking and accreditation are impacting the current state of Indian higher education institutions (IHEIs) and how IHEIs can cultivate their path towards positioning themselves internationally. This study aims to bring together existing scenarios and to serve as a springboard for future research and applications.Design/methodology/approachThe manuscript is designed and executed as a conceptual study exploring the current state and prospects for IHEIs. The study synthesizes the concepts of positioning strategies in context to IHEIs. A conceptual diagram integrating existing concepts from marketing, total quality management and business education is created to understand the phenomenon among the IHEIs stakeholders.FindingsThe authors found that IHEIs started showing their international presence yet they are facing various challenges (government bureaucracy; international salary standards; global student population; and cultural sensitivity). The authors also found that the positioning problem is not a one-time attempt; the complexity of higher education is a “wicked problem” and, hence needs to be evaluated, changed and executed continuously. The manuscript offers relevant information to IHEIs leaders and stakeholders to improve on their international positioning strategies and proposes avenues for future research.Originality/valueThe study outlines future development and positioning strategic plans that IHEIs may consider and reflect in their strategic plan. The conceptual diagram on achieving successful international positioning and problem areas is expected to act as a guidebook for the key decision-makers. The focus is on distinguishing the imperatives, creating a key guide for meeting immediate requirements, allotting assets prudently to update their international presence. The study will provide IHEIs with a new lease of life in the future.
目的:本文从新兴国家的角度思考高等教育的未来。作者特别回答了新的教育政策、排名和认证如何影响印度高等教育机构(IHEIs)的现状,以及IHEIs如何培养自己的国际定位之路。本研究旨在汇集现有的场景,并作为未来研究和应用的跳板。设计/方法/方法该手稿是作为一项探索IHEIs现状和前景的概念性研究而设计和执行的。本研究将定位策略的概念综合到IHEIs的语境中。一个概念图整合现有的概念,从市场营销,全面质量管理和商业教育创建理解IHEIs利益相关者之间的现象。研究结果:作者发现,高等教育机构开始展示其国际影响力,但它们面临着各种挑战(政府官僚主义;国际薪金标准;全球学生人数;以及文化敏感性)。作者还发现,定位问题不是一次性的尝试;高等教育的复杂性是一个“棘手的问题”,因此需要持续评估、改变和执行。该手稿为IHEIs领导人和利益相关者提供了相关信息,以改进他们的国际定位战略,并为未来的研究提出了途径。原创性/价值本研究概述了未来的发展和定位战略计划,IHEIs可能会考虑和反映在他们的战略计划中。关于实现成功的国际定位和问题领域的概念图预计将成为关键决策者的指导手册。重点是区分必要性,为满足当前需求创建关键指南,谨慎分配资产以更新其国际存在。这项研究将为高等教育机构的未来带来新的生机。

Toward epistemological identification of the four major mindscapes 四种主要心理景观的认识论认同
IF 3.1 Q2 Business, Management and Accounting Pub Date : 2021-10-11 DOI: 10.1108/ribs-02-2021-0031

PurposeJapanese American philosopher Magoroh Maruyama (1969) proposed the Mindscape theory, a macro model of cultural differences identification. The theory suggests inter-and intra-cultural heterogeneity and four major Mindscapes of H, I, S and G. He and his colleagues designed 64 graphic geometric patterns based on redundant and non-redundant complexity to recognize the Mindscapes in cultures. However, there is no method of identifying each Mindscape individually/separately. In other words, specificity is missing in this theory. Without such identification, the applicability of the Mindscape theory in international business is limited. This study aims to provide the needed specificity.Design/methodology/approachThe present study applies Harvey’s (1966) four epistemological systems to identify each of the four Mindscapes. According to Maruyama and Harvey, three of Harvey’s four systems are identical to the three Mindscapes of H, I and G. If the authors can match the three Mindscapes with the three Harvey’s systems, what remains the authors assume to be the fourth Mindscape.FindingsThe current study determined various graphic and geometric patterns associated with each of the four Mindscapes. In doing so, the study expanded the applicability of the theory in international business.Research limitations/implicationsHarvey (1966) administered nine psychological tests (instruments) to many subjects over nearly two decades to determine the four systems. Using nine major instruments is very challenging, demanding and time-consuming. For ease of application and saving time, the authors used one of these instruments as an example.

目的日裔美国哲学家丸山Magoroh Maruyama(1969)提出了文化差异认同的宏观模型——Mindscape理论。该理论提出了文化间和文化内的异质性以及H、I、S和g四种主要的心理景观。他和他的同事基于冗余和非冗余复杂性设计了64种图形几何图案来识别文化中的心理景观。然而,没有办法单独或单独地识别每个Mindscape。换句话说,这个理论缺少特异性。没有这样的识别,心智景观理论在国际商务中的适用性是有限的。本研究旨在提供所需的特异性。设计/方法论/方法本研究采用Harvey(1966)的四个认识论系统来识别四种思维景观中的每一个。根据Maruyama和Harvey的说法,Harvey的四个系统中有三个与H, I和g的三个Mindscape相同。如果作者可以将这三个Mindscape与Harvey的三个系统相匹配,那么剩下的就是第四个Mindscape。目前的研究确定了与四种思维模式相关的各种图形和几何图案。这样,该研究扩大了该理论在国际商务中的适用性。研究局限/启示sharvey(1966)在近二十年的时间里对许多受试者进行了九次心理测试(工具),以确定这四个系统。使用九种主要乐器非常具有挑战性,要求高,耗时长。为了方便应用和节省时间,作者以其中一种仪器为例。理想情况下,作者应该使用所有。原创性/价值思维景观理论认为,这四种显著的思维景观中的每一种都与特定情境更为相关,如人力资源管理、动机、领导力、冲突解决等。通过对每一种心理景观的识别,本研究扩展了心理景观理论的应用。

The theory suggests inter-and intra-cultural heterogeneity and four major Mindscapes of H, I, S and G. He and his colleagues designed 64 graphic geometric patterns based on redundant and non-redundant complexity to recognize the Mindscapes in cultures. However, there is no method of identifying each Mindscape individually/separately. In other words, specificity is missing in this theory. Without such identification, the applicability of the Mindscape theory in international business is limited. This study aims to provide the needed specificity.\u0000\u0000\u0000Design/methodology/approach\u0000The present study applies Harvey’s (1966) four epistemological systems to identify each of the four Mindscapes. According to Maruyama and Harvey, three of Harvey’s four systems are identical to the three Mindscapes of H, I and G. If the authors can match the three Mindscapes with the three Harvey’s systems, what remains the authors assume to be the fourth Mindscape.\u0000\u0000\u0000Findings\u0000The current study determined various graphic and geometric patterns associated with each of the four Mindscapes.
