Purpose - The main objective of this research is to analyze e-commerce companies in a digital marketing and logistics context to better understand the future of e-commerce companies.Methodology - This manuscript has included updated literature and real examples to explore the new challenges facing e-commerce firms in marketing, logistics, and sustainability terms.Findings- The results reveal that Amazon, JD.com, and Alibaba companies with their autonomous distribution have a huge competitive advantage against their main competitors because they do not depend on external logistics companies, their parcel shipments are more personalized, and they reduce time and costs in their processes. Nevertheless, when e-commerce companies depend on external distribution, the quality of their parcel shipment services is highly dependent on logistics firms’ ability to provide excellent service to their consumers. Sometimes, consumers’ satisfaction is related to parcel shipments by logistics companies, which may be affected by poor services or even parcels arriving too late, and possibly customers will be dissatisfied.Conclusion- In the light of the information obtained because of the research, the sustainable future of e-commerce companies will lie in their efficiency and efficacy management, the sustainability of the environment, logistics services, technological innovations, and marketing strategies to increase sales conversion and cover new consumers’ needs.
研究目的--本研究的主要目的是在数字营销和物流背景下分析电子商务公司,以更好地了解电子商务公司的未来。研究方法--本手稿包含了最新文献和实际案例,以探讨电子商务公司在营销、物流和可持续发展方面面临的新挑战。研究结果--结果显示,亚马逊、京东商城和阿里巴巴公司的自主配送与其主要竞争对手相比具有巨大的竞争优势,因为它们不依赖外部物流公司,其包裹运输更加个性化,并减少了流程中的时间和成本。然而,当电商企业依赖外部配送时,其包裹运输服务的质量在很大程度上取决于物流公司能否为消费者提供优质服务。有时,消费者的满意度与物流公司的包裹运输有关,可能会因为服务质量差甚至包裹到达时间过晚而影响消费者的满意度,进而可能会引起消费者的不满。

Then, the semi-structure in depth interview transcripted and highlighted to topic which turned into codes. The codes were got together and tied to themes. Findings- In result of the analysis reveals that 4 main themes which are 1) Scandinavian Morality and Ethical Production; 2) Green Sustainability; 3) Vegan Product; 4) Organic Product. To the analysis, Scandinavian morality has a big impact on ethical production. The firm’s practices are related to green sustainability; almost all production processes become “green”. In context of climate change, vegan perspective is rising day by day in the marketplace; producing animal-derived resources evaluate a part of climate change. Organic production is assessing an aspect of ecological life which is related to environmental sustainability.Conclusion- In green marketing perspective, environmental sustainability is one of the most indispensable issue, especially, while climate change gaining visibility. Basic marketing mix turning to “green marketing mix”. When brands and firms go green by politically, their production process goes directly green, as well. Climate change could be assessed like ethical issue in marketplace in context of environmental degradation.

目的--在 21 世纪,气候变化的影响开始直接影响企业的生产过程。在消费者的态度和行为影响了市场之后,企业开始在企业社会责任方面展现自己。自 20 世纪 70 年代以来,可持续发展已成为反映企业政治的一个突出话题。环境可持续发展是可持续发展的一种,它以环境为中心,并从这个角度出发不断提供产品或服务。通过使用绿色营销组合,很多品牌都以环境为中心来获取利润。从生产包装到工厂使用的电能类型,许多影响开始变成企业环境可持续发展政治的隐喻。在道德生产和环境可持续发展的背景下,在取消动物实验的同时,素食产品的生产也在努力发展。本研究的目的是了解环境可持续性如何影响企业/品牌的生产过程。通过对来自丹麦的土耳其环保清洁公司的代表进行半结构式深度访谈。然后,对半结构式深度访谈进行记录并突出主题,将其转化为代码。这些代码被整合在一起,形成主题。研究结果--分析结果显示,有 4 个主要的主题,分别是:1)斯堪的纳维亚道德和道德生产;2)绿色可持续发展;3)素食产品;4)有机产品。分析认为,北欧道德对道德生产有很大影响。公司的做法与绿色可持续发展有关;几乎所有的生产流程都是 "绿色 "的。在气候变化的背景下,素食观点在市场上日渐兴起;生产动物源性资源是气候变化的一部分。结论--从绿色营销的角度来看,环境可持续性是最不可或缺的问题之一,尤其是在气候变化日益受到关注的情况下。基本营销组合转向 "绿色营销组合"。当品牌和公司在政治上走向绿色时,其生产过程也直接走向绿色。在环境恶化的背景下,气候变化可被视为市场中的道德问题。此外,关注素食和有机产品的企业和品牌,由于绿色环保,在环境可持续发展方面的定位也可以作为一种差异化的评估方法。

Purpose- Although artificial intelligence technology is a new technology, it affects every aspect of our lives by finding a very fast field of activity. Artificial intelligence technology, which also shows its effect in the field of finance, is seen to have many applications. There are many alternatives in the investment markets, it will take a long time to make a profit in the markets and a certain amount of knowledge is required. People cannot master the data in all markets when they will invest, but technological developments provide the opportunity to invest by storing each data or observing their changes. This study aims to investigate the effects of artificial intelligence technology on individual investor decisions. Methodology- The study consists of individual investors who live in Diyarbakır province and generally make investments. The questionnaire prepared in accordance with the scope of the study was applied to 1800 participants using face-to-face survey method. The 22 statements prepared in accordance with the scope of the study were applied to the participants. The questionnaires that 1616 participants answered correctly and accurately were included in the scope of the study. In order to ensure the reliability of the study statements, Cronbach's Alpha was calculated and this rate was determined as 91%. The answers given to the study statements were transferred to the tables as a result of the analyses. The transferred information was tried to be interpreted. In addition, frequency tables, t-test and anaova analysis were used in the analysis of the study data.Findings- Thanks to artificial intelligence algorithms, which is one of this technology, it analyses the data in the market and enables the investor who wants to invest to trade in the market by giving buy and sell orders. Thus, artificial intelligence technology allows the investor to make more profitable investments by guiding the investor.Conclusion- As a result, it is possible to say that the individual investors participating in the research do not have sufficient knowledge about artificial intelligence technologies, but they have an interest in investing using artificial intelligence technologies. In addition, it has been determined that the older the age, the lower the education level, the higher the income level and the married investors are insecure about investing using artificial intelligence technology.
目的--虽然人工智能技术是一项新技术,但它影响着我们生活的方方面面,找到了一个非常快速的活动领域。人工智能技术在金融领域也显示出了它的作用,可以看到它有很多应用。投资市场有很多选择,要在市场中获利需要很长时间,而且需要一定的知识。人们在投资时不可能掌握所有市场的数据,但技术的发展提供了通过存储每个数据或观察其变化进行投资的机会。本研究旨在探讨人工智能技术对个人投资者决策的影响。研究方法--研究对象包括居住在迪亚巴克尔省并通常进行投资的个人投资者。根据研究范围编制的调查问卷采用面对面调查的方法对 1800 名参与者进行了调查。根据研究范围编写的 22 份陈述适用于参与者。1616 名参与者正确、准确回答的问卷被纳入研究范围。为了确保研究陈述的可靠性,我们计算了 Cronbach's Alpha 值,该值被确定为 91%。经过分析,研究陈述的答案被转入表格。我们尝试对转入的信息进行解释。此外,在分析研究数据时还使用了频数表、t 检验和 anaova 分析。研究结果--人工智能算法是该技术的一种,它能分析市场数据,并通过下达买卖指令使想要投资的投资者在市场上进行交易。因此,人工智能技术通过引导投资者进行投资,使其获得更多利润。结论--因此可以说,参与研究的个人投资者对人工智能技术的了解还不够,但他们对利用人工智能技术进行投资很感兴趣。此外,研究还发现,年龄越大、受教育程度越低、收入水平越高以及已婚的投资者对使用人工智能技术进行投资缺乏安全感。

A THEORETICAL SUGGESTION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SAFETY CULTURE: CIVIL AVIATION CONTEXT 发展安全文化的理论建议:民航背景
Pub Date : 2024-06-01 DOI: 10.17261/pressacademia.2024.1883

Purpose - This paper aims to place aviation safety culture on three pillars theoretically, and by doing so, to distill findings. By more clear words, It tries to give a more detailed explanation of the concept of safety and safety sciences. Regardless of the business branches, safety should be an important branch, depending on its clear importance in aviation, maritime, health and engineering and more technical sciences to give a clear insight into safety another purpose. Methodology - Methodologically, the differences between the communities of Gemeinschaft and Gesellschaft of Tönnies and epistêmê and technê discrimination of Greek philosophy pave the way for Habermas’s Communicative Action Theory to create a cultural form that is exemplified as safety culture in civil aviation depending on the increasing impacts of the communication and communication networks. In the end, it concludes that the safety culture of civil aviation can be explained with this type of theoretical background and this methodology can be utilised in other industrial branches and sciences. Findings- The main findings of this research can be collected in two groups. One of them is directly related to the creation of a cultural form (safety culture) and its main features by theoretical means, the other one is the evaluation of these theoretical means to the specific ends in a specific business branch, so civil aviation.Conclusion- Through these ways, the importance of communication, sociological heritage and knowledge forms in aviation safety culture will be more theoretically understandable which is a complementary recipe of the research gap. On the other side, and in clearer words, safety is one of the great problems of humankind and business life. Like many other concepts such as security, the importance of heritage, culture, transmission and transportation of knowledge will be more understandable with these kinds of papers or works.
目的--本文旨在从理论上将航空安全文化置于三大支柱之上,并以此提炼出研究成果。本文试图通过更清晰的语言,对安全和安全科学的概念做出更详细的解释。无论业务分支如何,安全都应是一个重要分支,根据其在航空、航海、卫生和工程以及更多技术科学中的明确重要性,对安全的另一个目的给出清晰的见解。方法论--在方法论上,托尼斯的 "团体"(Gemeinschaft 和 Gesellschaft)与希腊哲学的 "认识"(epistêmê)和 "技术"(technê)之间的差异,为哈贝马斯的 "交流行动理论"(Communicative Action Theory)铺平了道路。最后,研究得出结论,民航安全文化可以用这种理论背景来解释,这种方法也可以用于其他行业和科学领域。研究结果--本研究的主要结果可分为两组。结论--通过这些方法,交流、社会学遗产和知识形式在航空安全文化中的重要性将更容易从理论上理解,这是对研究空白的补充。另一方面,更明确地说,安全是人类和商业生活中的重大问题之一。与安全等许多其他概念一样,遗产、文化、知识的传播和运输的重要性将通过此类论文或作品得到更多的理解。

Purpose- This research paper delves into the relationship between workplace spirituality (WS) and organizational identification (OI) and the mediating role of organization-based self-esteem (OBSE) in this association. Methodology- The study involved the participation of 206 administrative personnel at Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University in Canakkale province. The data collected were subjected to several statistical analyses, including explanatory and confirmatory factor analyses, normality tests, correlation analyses, hierarchical regression analyses, and Sobel tests. The results of these analyses revealed significant findings, supporting the hypothesis that workplace spirituality affects organizational identification, with OBSE serving as a mediator in this relationship.Findings- The findings suggest that employees with WS and OBSE are more likely to identify with their organization's beliefs and values. Conclusion- Incorporating WS can result in favorable OI, mainly when an individual's core values are congruent with the company's. In this context, an individual's confidence in their skills and their conviction in their ability to make valuable contributions to the organization fosters a strong sense of self-esteem in the workplace.
目的--本研究论文探讨了工作场所灵性(WS)与组织认同(OI)之间的关系,以及组织自尊(OBSE)在这种关系中的中介作用。研究方法--这项研究涉及位于卡纳卡莱省的卡纳卡莱 Onsekiz Mart 大学的 206 名行政人员。对收集到的数据进行了多项统计分析,包括解释性和确认性因素分析、正态性检验、相关性分析、分层回归分析和索贝尔检验。这些分析结果显示,工作场所精神影响组织认同,OBSE 是这种关系的中介,这一假设得到了显著支持。结论--融入 WS 可以产生有利的 OI,主要是当个人的核心价值观与公司的核心价值观一致时。在这种情况下,个人对自己技能的信心以及对自己有能力为组织做出有价值贡献的信念,会在工作场所培养出强烈的自尊感。

Purpose- This study's objective is to observe Türkiye’s fintech market structure by their competitiveness results. To get a better observation Türkiye compared with a fintech-developed country as Germany. The inconvenient definition of fintech caused this study to examine 4 massive fin-tech sectors. Especially current situation of the financial-technology market there are several branches. The study refrains from the engineering-intensive branches to serve its purpose. The study includes; Payments, Lending, Personal Finance, and Insuretech branches. We expect to observe the competitive dynamics for several branches.Methodology- The study selected the “entropy index” as a method. The entropy index shows the market depth for related sectors. It can be defined as a density analysis. We can make the index with at least 5 observations. However, the increase in the observation level causes the low-variance level index results.Findings- The study made its index by the top ten firms by their sales revenue level. The study observes the market in 5 branches. The conclusion part supplied 5 different density results. In that situation, observations can be seen more specifically for the market. The study used the entropy density index to observe the competitiveness level of the market. Results were multiple because the branches were divided from the sector. Every branch has its dynamics. On the Türkiye side, we expect fewer companies than in Germany. However, in the personal finance sector, we can observe the competitiveness levels are close. However, in this study, we can also observe high gaps between the sectors of insurance tech and lending. This study did not have the purpose of determining the factors behind them but the study tried to give political suggestions.Conclusion- The density level for lending and personal finance sectors can be compatible with a high-fintech level company. For the insure-tech side, companies value and numbers are lower. The payment sector has more technology than the other sectors but the number of firms are lower than in Germany. We were expecting the competitive structure are not improve in Turkey because of the low-quantity firms. At some branches, we obtained the results that support this expectation. However, the view of the study observed that some branches has low competitive market structure when compared the Germany. But at some points, there are massive cliffs between the two countries. We can attribute the situation to the habits. The habits of technology meant. Especially on the insurance side, Turkey should improve itself. Türkiye should be getting more investment, subsidies, etc. in the sector of insure-tech and payment sector. Because their competition level is a risk to the country’s market structure. This study includes no detailed politics but suggests to subsidies and incentives from the government side. Government should support and encourage the new-entry firms or entrepreneurs for the sector of fintec
目的--本研究的目的是通过竞争力结果观察土耳其的金融科技市场结构。为了更好地观察土耳其与德国等金融科技发达国家的比较。由于金融科技的定义不便,本研究只考察了 4 个大型金融科技领域。特别是金融科技市场的现状有多个分支。为了达到研究目的,本研究不涉及工程密集型分支。本研究包括支付、借贷、个人金融和保险科技分支。我们希望观察几个分支的竞争态势。熵指数显示了相关行业的市场深度。它可以定义为一种密度分析。我们至少可以用 5 个观测值来编制指数。研究结果--本研究以销售收入水平排名前十的公司为样本,编制了指数。研究观察了 5 个分支市场。结论部分提供了 5 个不同的密度结果。在这种情况下,可以更具体地观察市场。研究使用熵密度指数来观察市场的竞争力水平。由于分支机构是从行业中划分出来的,因此结果是多重的。每个分支机构都有其动态变化。在土耳其方面,我们预计公司数量少于德国。不过,在个人金融领域,我们可以看到竞争力水平很接近。不过,在本研究中,我们也可以观察到保险科技和贷款行业之间的巨大差距。结论--贷款和个人金融行业的密度水平可以与高金融科技水平的公司相媲美。在保险技术方面,公司的价值和数量都较低。支付行业的技术含量高于其他行业,但公司数量却低于德国。由于企业数量较少,我们预计土耳其的竞争结构不会得到改善。在一些分支机构,我们得到的结果支持了这一预期。然而,研究结果表明,与德国相比,一些分行的市场竞争结构较低。但在某些方面,两国之间存在着巨大的差距。我们可以把这种情况归咎于习惯。这意味着技术习惯。特别是在保险方面,土耳其应该自我完善。土耳其应在保险科技和支付领域获得更多投资和补贴。因为它们的竞争水平对土耳其的市场结构构成风险。本研究不包括详细的政治内容,但建议政府方面提供补贴和激励措施。政府应支持和鼓励新进入金融科技领域的公司或企业家。

Purpose- By integrating sustainability into their business operations, small tourism and hospitality accommodation enterprises will not only contribute to achieving sustainable development goals 7, 9,12,13 and 14, but also promote a culture of environmental and social consciousness that aligns with the broader objectives of the United Nations’ Agenda 2030. Therefore, this study explores barriers to the adoption of sustainability practices among small hotel businesses in Ghana.Methodology- Using a qualitative research framework and descriptive analysis method, face-to-face interviews were conducted with 16 small hotel managers in the Cape Coast Metropolis of Ghana. The interview technique was adopted because it allowed for the acquisition of detailed information from participants on barriers to the adoption of sustainability practices.Findings- The findings revealed a spectrum of internal barriers: lack of awareness and understanding of sustainability principles, attitudes, negligence among hotel staff, and financial constraints. External barriers, such as owner interference in managerial decision-making, exploitative supplier actions, burdensome taxes and levies, and seasonal fluctuations with low hotel patronage, were also identified as the main barriers to the adoption of sustainability practices in small hotel businesses in Ghana. Conclusion- The study concludes by recommending targeted sustainability education and training programs to enhance sustainability awareness and cost-effective practices, while changes in organizational structures such as empowering managers and fostering collaboration between owners and managers are imperative for effective sustainability adoption and integration. Additionally, small hotel businesses should diversify revenue streams beyond peak seasons and, with collaborative efforts, advocate for supportive policies and regulations at all levels to create a conducive environment for the adoption of sustainable practices.
目的--通过将可持续性融入其业务运营,小型旅游和酒店住宿企业不仅将有助于实现可持续发展目标 7、9、12、13 和 14,还将促进环境和社会意识文化的发展,从而与联合国 2030 年议程的更广泛目标保持一致。因此,本研究探讨了加纳小型酒店企业采用可持续发展做法的障碍。研究方法--采用定性研究框架和描述性分析方法,对加纳海岸角大都会的 16 名小型酒店经理进行了面对面访谈。研究结果--研究结果显示了一系列内部障碍:缺乏对可持续发展原则的认识和理解、态度、酒店员工的疏忽以及财务限制。外部障碍,如业主对管理决策的干预、供应商的剥削行为、繁重的税费以及酒店客流量低的季节性波动,也被认为是加纳小型酒店企业采用可持续发展做法的主要障碍。结论--本研究最后建议开展有针对性的可持续发展教育和培训项目,以提高可持续发展意识和成本效益,同时改变组织结构,如赋予管理人员权力和促进业主与管理人员之间的合作,是有效采用和整合可持续发展的当务之急。此外,小型酒店企业应在旺季之外实现收入来源多样化,并通过合作努力,在各个层面倡导支持性政策和法规,为采用可持续做法创造有利环境。
