  • Shared Spatial Regulating in Sharing-Economy Districts
    WIDENER (DO NOT DELETE) 11/3/2015 2:56 PM Shared Spatial Regulating in Sharing-Economy Districts Michael N. Widener* ABSTRACT Digital technology, coupled with present economic conditions and the interest of younger Americans in sustainability, has enabled a climate favorable to collaborative consumption. More individuals will be engaged over time in the on-demand “sharing economy” because underemployment of the middle class, and a majority of all non- or under-skilled workers, is a chronic condition eluding ready solution. This new resources “lending” and social networking culture assures ongoing introductions of sharing producers and consumers to each other and into residential neighborhoods. The result of such engagement will include increased traffic trips, overtaxed curbside parking spaces, additional ambient noise and enhanced stress upon electric and other utility grids tapped by sharing enterprises. Since these neighborhood burdens are not addressed in the form of sales taxes or license fees directly returned to host enclaves, many of these burdens are borne largely by dwellers. Local persons not participating in the sharing economy expect their daily routines to continue without interference from unfamiliar persons, noises and odors, or the disadvantages of increased traffic and reduced curbside parking. Communities now are challenged to regulate sharing uses in this new economic order while accommodating opportunities for such enterprises to generate revenue and taxes. In one regard, accommodation invites struggles between established neighborhood dwellers and later-arriving sharing producers operating outside zoning regulations. Even so, outright prohibiting of entrepreneurial models in residential zoning districts counters local governments’ efforts to remake the economic and social landscapes of urban communities, especially those mired precariously in circumstances of joblessness, crime and other types of disorder.

  • 836250 Thesis 15913 Eirinixa
    source: unsplash.com EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT IN THE CONTEXT OF “PAY-WHAT-YOU-WANT” SERVICE SETTINGS: THE CASE OF FREE WALKING TOURS Master’s Thesis Student number | 124213 MSocSc in Service Management Submission date | May 14, 2020 Author | Eirini Xanthopoulou Number of pages | 75 Supervisor | Helle Haurum Characters (incl. spaces) | 163.032 Abstract Pay-What-You-Want (PWYW) pricing systems allow customers to decide how much a product or service is worth and determine the price they want to pay, above or equal to zero. Nowadays, PWYW applications have become particularly popular in service settings but academic studies have solely focused on examining the implications of adopting such pricing systems for managers and customers, overlooking the employee perspective in the encounter. This study investigates the case of free walking tours and contributes to the existing literature by providing an understanding of how and why the application of PWYW pricing systems in service settings affects the engagement of frontline employees. The results of ethnographic research and online surveys indicate that employee engagement in PWYW contexts is dependent on socio-cultural factors such as labour market characteristics and social norms. In that sense, a certain job might bring engagement in one culture but disengagement in another. Moreover, the study demonstrates a correlation between customer payments and employee engagement. Higher levels of payments (or the potential of such) lead to increased employee service productivity, job satisfaction and work engagement. On the other hand, employee morale is hurt in case of low or zero payments which, when combined with lack of perceived fairness of the PWYW system, lead to increased job insecurity, higher turnover intentions and decreased engagement.
