  • The Effectiveness of CEO Leadership Styles in the Technology Industry
    The Effectiveness of CEO Leadership Styles in the Technology Industry Sean Dougherty, Andrew Drake Advisors: Dr. Jonathan Scott and Professor Katherine Nelson Temple University Explanation of research The purpose of this research is to determine the impact of leadership style on financial success. A great deal of research has been done on the factors that affect the financial success of a company, but leadership is one factor that tends to be overlooked. That is due to the nature of leadership; like other aspects of human resources management such as company culture, leadership is not easily quantifiable. In order to study leadership’s effect on company success, we needed to make leadership less abstract and more concrete. We needed a means of distinguishing the way one person leads in comparison to another person, and the solution was presented to us upon reading Primal Leadership. Authors Daniel Goleman, Richard Boyatzis, and Annie McKee make the detailed claim that the way a person leads can always be categorized into at least one of six distinct emotional leadership styles. We seek to build on the research of Goleman, Boyatzis, and McKee by analyzing the effectiveness of each of these styles in terms of driving financial success. To measure financial success, we looked at the behavior of stock price in the time following an initial public offering. For our data set, we chose to study 60 companies in the technology industry that have gone public since the year 2000. With each company, we researched the CEO who led the company during the IPO and assigned him or her one to two leadership styles that he or she exhibits.

    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Scott M. Morgan for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Business Administration presented on May 29, 2009 . Title: The Impact of Corporate Social Responsibility on Mergers and Acquisitions. Abstract approved: _______________________________________________ Donald Neubaum _______________________________________________ Prem Mathew This study examines the effects of corporate social responsibility (CSR) on merger and acquisitions (M&A). Using data from Kinder, Lyndeberg, and Domini (KLD) Research Analytics and Thomson’s Securities Data Corporation’s (SDC) Platinum Database, we empirically test if CSR scores effect a firm’s propensity to pursue M&A activity. Specifically, I examine how individual elements of CSR ratings (i.e. community relations, corporate governance, diversity, employee relations, environmental practices, and product quality and safety) might directly influence this relationship. The second part of this study examines the problems associated with integration that commonly arise during corporate acquisitions. We attempt to determine what dimensions of CSR increase integration periods by looking at the differences in bidder and target CSR scores. Key Words: Business, Mergers and Acquisitions, Corporate Social Responsibility, Stakeholder, Integration Period, Speed of Integration Corresponding E-mail Address: [email protected] © Copyright by Scott M.

  • Internet Ipos Show Impressive Strength in Third Quarter of 1999
    Internet IPOs Show Impressive Strength in Third Quarter of 1999 David Westenberg 10.1.1999 Initial public offerings by Internet-related companies ("iPOs") showed impressive strength in the third quarter of 1999, despite overall market choppiness, a mid-summer lull and substantial declines in market valuations of large-cap Internet stocks. Overall market conditions appeared to be hurt during the third quarter by: hikes in interest rates in late June and again in August concerns about Y2K-related market turbulence as year-end approaches Microsoft President's Steve Ballmer's widely reported statements in September that technology stocks are absurdly overvalued All major indexes except the Nasdaq Composite declined in the third quarter. The Nasdaq Composite, which is dominated by large technology stocks such as Microsoft, Intel and Cisco, inched up 2.2% in the third quarter. At September 30, the average stock had fallen more than 20% from its 52-week high. TheStreet.com's Internet index of 20 large-cap Web stocks is down more than 30% from April. In this "stealth bear" market, the strength of all IPOs, and iPOs in particular, was somewhat surprising. The Big Picture In the third quarter of 1999, there were 101 iPOs raising $7.412 billion, compared to 10 iPOs raising $562 million in the third quarter of 1998. Year to date, 215 iPOs have raised $17.159 billion. iPOs represented 67% of the total number of IPOs and 41% of the total dollar volume of all IPOs in the third quarter of 1999. Year to date, iPOs represent 57% of the total number of IPOs and 36% of the total dollar volume of all IPOs.

  • Introduction to Content Switching
    ch01 Page 1 Monday, June 2, 2003 3:24 PM 1 Introduction to Content Switching Content switching, server load balancing, intelligent switching, Layer 4 switching, session switching, application switching. Like any maturing technol- ogy, no one name has been accepted to encompass all that content switching covers. We will use the term content switching throughout this book, as it appears to be the most commonly used method by which to express this technology. However, please understand that even this might change depending on what your requirements are. Therefore, before we begin our journey through the workings and terminol- ogy of content switching, we should first pause and understand where and how this technology evolved. Without a doubt, the roots of content switching can be tied directly to the growth of the Internet in the late 1990s, where Ethernet and TCP/IP became the king of the corporate networks. Suddenly, network manufacturers were not focusing their research and development staff on Token Ring, ATM, or FDDI, or protocols such as IPX, SNA, or NetBIOS, but rather on how to leverage this new and growing phenomenon that was being driven by the unilateral accep- tance of TCP/IP and Ethernet across the globe. The Evolution of Layer 2 and Layer 3 Networks Networking had come a long way by the mid to late 1990s, and routing at Layer 3 was beginning to become an application that could be moved to the edge of 1 ch01 Page 2 Monday, June 2, 2003 3:24 PM 2 Chapter 1 ● INTRODUCTION TO CONTENT SWITCHING the network or to the wiring closet, enabling networks to be more easily man- aged by grouping smaller quantities of devices together in a single subnet.
