  • 17TH March 2019
    17TH March 2019 Today second Sunday in Lent, the liturgy of the word invariably brings us the evangelic episode of the Lord's Transfiguration. This time, with the nuances typical of St Luke's Gospel. It is Saint Luke who more strongly emphasizes the praying Jesus, the Son who is permanently linked to the Father through personal prayer, at times intimate, hidden, at times in the presence of his disciples, but always full of joy through the Holy Spirit. Let's therefore pay attention to the fact Luke is the only one of the synoptics that begins the narration in this way: «Jesus (...) went up the mountain to pray» (Lk 9:28), and, consequently, it is Luke who specifies that the Master's transfiguration happened «while He was praying» (Lk 9:29). And this is not something irrelevant. The prayer is presented here like the ideal and natural context for the vision of Christ's Glory: when Peter, John and James «awoke (…) and saw Jesus' Glory» (Lk 9:32). But, not only His Glory, but also the glory God had already manifested in the Law and the Prophets; they —evangelist Luke says— «appeared in heavenly glory» (Lk 9:31). For they indeed find their own splendor in the love of the Spirit when the Son speaks to the Father. Thus, in the heart of Holy Trinity, Jesus' Passover, «his departure that had to take place in Jerusalem» (Lk 9:31), is the sign manifesting God's plan, which is carried out in the bosom of Israel's history, until its definite completion, through the death and resurrection of Jesus, the Jesus Incarnated.

  • SU-DISSERTATION-2017.Pdf
    INNOVATION AND GOVERNANCE MECHANISMS OF RESTAURANT FRANCHISE SYSTEMS BY CHI-TING SU DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Business Administration in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2017 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Janet Bercovitz, Chair Professor Joseph T. Mahoney, Co-Chair Associate Professor Deepak Somaya Professor Huseyin Leblebici ABSTRACT Given its economic significance, franchise business has been widely studied by economists and management researchers since 1970s (Combs, Michael & Castrogiovanni, 2004; Lafontaine & Slade, 1997). While past franchising literature focuses on how the design of the franchise contract or the arrangement of the outlet ownerships can resolve the double moral hazard problem and to maintain the standardization of franchise systems, the current dissertation explores how the design of these governance mechanisms enables franchise system to achieve another strategic objective, innovations. After finding that the design of governance mechanisms is critical to franchise systems’ pursuit of innovation, the next natural question is how franchise systems can update their governance mechanisms to keep up the pace of innovation. The current dissertation uses the context of restaurant franchise systems, which account for one third of business format franchising’s contribution or about 1% to U.S. GDP, to explore these two research questions empirically. Innovations of restaurant franchise systems are approximated by the systems’ trademark registrations, whose data are obtained from U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. By incorporating the trademark data, this dissertation finds that the design of governance mechanisms is related to the number of innovations being developed by a restaurant franchise system.

  • Il Caso Mcdonald's
    LE FONTI DEL VANTAGGIO COMPETITIVO E LE STRATEGIE DI RILANCIO: IL CASO MCDONALD’S Il colosso dei fast food McDonald’s ha avuto un avvio abbastanza ordinario ed è diventato tale grazie alla tenacia, ad una geniale intuizione e al duro lavoro dei fratelli McDonald. Tutto ebbe origine in California, dove nel 1937 i fratelli Richard e Maurice McDonald aprirono un chiosco di hot dog e subito dopo un ristorante drive-in a Pasadena, per gli automobilisti di passaggio. Tale progetto riscosse da subito un notevole successo, tanto da consentire nel 1940 l’apertura di un più ampio drive-in a San Bernardino a 80 km da Los Angeles. La ricetta del successo era semplice: menù ridotto a pochi alimenti e servizio rapido; venivano così assicurati i tre principi base: velocità, quantità e prezzi bassi sui quali ancora oggi l’azienda imposta la sua offerta. La svolta nella storia dell’azienda avvenne nel 1955 quando Ray Kroc, fornitore di frullatori, fondò "McDonald's Systems, Inc." (poi ribattezzata "McDonald's Corporation" ) attraverso cui era facilitata l’apertura dei ristoranti franchising . Nello stesso anno veniva aperto il primo ristorante della compagnia fondata da Kroc a Des Plaines nell’Illinois. Nel 1954, infatti, i fratelli McDonald e Ray Kroc avevano stipulato un accordo che vedeva il secondo quale agente licenziatario. In quel momento nacque sigla QSCV : Quality, Service, Cleanliness, Value for money, da sempre i principi base del gruppo. Nel 1967 veniva aperto il primo ristorante fast-foof all'esterno degli Stati Uniti, a Richmond, in Canada. Il 1971, invece, fu l'anno del primo fast food in Europa e precisamente in Olanda, a Zaandam, città nei pressi di Amsterdam, mentre nel 1990 McDonalds arrivava anche in Cina e, nello stesso anno, raggiungeva anche Mosca, in Piazza Puskin.
