The included papers focus on the Emerging Challenges in Modern Managements exploring them through the most up-date and currently pressing managerial problems faced in both management theory and practice. To outline the general scope of the pa- pers we decided to use a “world-cloud” technique which takes into account the frequen- cy of words used in a particular text. Here, a “word-cloud” has been created using words used by Authors in the titles and abstracts of their papers to show the main lines of their considerations – see the figure below. Figure 1. The thematic scope of the Issue Source: based on titles and abstracts taken from articles from this Issue, prepared using https://tagcrowd.com. As expressed by the size of the words in the above word-cloud, the papers included in this Issue focus on organization, whereas they consider in details a wide range of orga- nizational aspects from the perspective of such managerial problems as management, innovation, business models, sustainability, and value creation. Those aspects are the anchors, the key points, the crucial topics identified, recognized and revealed within the articles. Nonetheless, in order to make you more familiar with as well as more interested in the included articles it is reasoned to announce them using three critical perspectives, namely the theoretical background, the methodological design, and the industry focus adopted. First, the considered managerial concepts, theories, perspectives and standpo- ints applied as the theoretical lenses for both theoretical and empirical investigations. In general, the vast majority of papers included in this Issue refers to strategic manage- ment, however, five specific areas of consideration may be distinguished, namely: · relational view on competitive advantage discussed through Resource-Based View (RBV) and justified by the evidence for profitability of synergistic combination of value creation and co-creation, exploitation of open, co-operative and network approach to innovations; · business modeling shown form the perspective of structural/architectural (e.g. bu- siness model canvas) and conceptual/dominance logic (e.g. view on pre-dominant goal of organization) approach applicable either in more traditional or more creative industries; · entrepreneurship considered not only at organizational level, but also at industry and regional ones in the context of creation, maintenance and increasement of oppor- tunities for longitudinal survival and development; · sustainability seen as a broad concept useful in the context of improving enterprise management (including quality management and human resource management) or implementing corporate social responsibility approach; · current strategic issues regarding the newest practices in the field of risk manage- ment, project management, development of suitable organizational culture, creation of turquoise organization, building a business excellence, and knowledge manage- ment (including managerial focus paid on organizational consciousness and imagina- tion, information overabundance, opportunity recognition and exploitation, or know- ledge transfer). Second, the methodological approaches applied by Authors in order to handle the current managerial issues and unresolved tensions. Given the methodological perspec- tives, this Issue offers both theoretical and empirical papers developed using a wide ran- ge of research methods. On the one hand, the Authors present the results of theorizing and conceptualizations based on own, original theoretical considerations, or insights drawn from critical literature reviews or analyses of examples from business practice. On the other hand, the set of articles included in this Issue provides some empirical findings based on original field studies carried out using both qualitative and quantitative appro- aches. Among the research methods applied, there are those following qualitative tech- niques such as non-participatory observation, structured and categorized interviews, as well as those following quantitative techniques including descriptives and statistical analyses aimed at identification of interdependencies, directional, and dependence re- lationships between and among management-related variables. Third, an industry focus adopted in Authors’ explorations and explanations used to give a practical and business context. From more utilitarian perspective this Issue brid- ges managerial aspects significant in both digital (e.g. value creation, co-creation, explo- itation, and appropriation in e-commerce) and non-digital sectors (e.g. quality assess- ment in higher education, business model canvas suitable for jewelers). Furthermore, it provides both conceptual and empirical considerations presented in the articles refer- ring to both traditional industries pushed by technology, innovation or knowledge (e.g. graphene commercialization, effectiveness of agricultural machinery manufacturers) and those driven by creativity, ingenuity or insightfulness such as

  • Self-Organisation: a “Silver Bullet” for Creativity?
    Self-Organisation: A “Silver Bullet” for Creativity? Master’s thesis MSc in Social Sciences in Management of Creative Business Processes Authors (student number): Nils König (106404) & Nick Mikael Ahleskog (107272) Date of submission: 14th of May 2018 Supervisor: Christian De Cock Number of characters: 272,882 Number of pages: 120 Abstract This dissertation provides insight into how self-organisation as a system can foster creativity in an organisational context. Based on an extensive literature review, we selected a number of factors that influence creativity and related them to self-organisation, drawing on both existing self-organisation theories and our own implications. The research of this dissertation aims at examining whether and how those factors are fulfilled in real self- organised settings and how professional individuals and organisations deal with conflicts that self-organisation theoretically imposes on creativity. In addition, we address how different forms of self-organisation relate to creativity in varying ways. To do this, we conducted in-depth interviews with 13 employees from three different self-organised organisations, two of which we interpret as self-led (with high autonomy levels), and one as self-managed (with lower autonomy levels). The findings show that self-organisation as a system indeed has the potential to foster creativity. In some aspects, the studied organisations however struggle to fully utilise this potential and to transform it to actual creative behaviour. A final finding is that, according to our expectations, self-leadership has an even stronger positive influence on creativity compared to self-management. All results are critically discussed and managerial implications as to how occurring problems can be resolved are presented.

  • Creating an Evolutionary Teal Organization on a Step-By-Step Basis. a Case Study
    ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND MANAGEMENT 2018 PRZEDSIĘBIORCZOŚĆ I ZARZĄDZANIE 2018 University of Social Sciences Publishing House | ISSN 2543-8190 Volume XIX | Issue 6 | Part I | pp. 243–256 Jerzy Rosiński | [email protected] Jagiellonian University Faculty of Management and Social Communication Creating an Evolutionary Teal Organization on a Step-by-step Basis. A Case Study Abstract: F. Laloux’s concept describing organizational cultures of so-called turquoise or- ganizations constitutes a very attractive narration; however, it focuses on describing the already existing organizations and isolated events from the beginnings of the creation of turquoise organizations. This article is an attempt to gain an insight into organizations, to show the successive stages of creating evolutionary turquoise organizations at the level of particular organizational processes. The subject matter of the conducted analysis was a small educational sector organization; the research was carried out by means of the qualitative methods (a participant observa- tion, a partly categorized interview); the plans of both the observation and the interview were based on the Reinventing Organizations Map model developed by the consultancy firm Circle43. The analysis of changes taking place in the examined organization showed the tendencies occurring during the process of building an “evolutionary turquoise organization” such as leadership as a factor initiating the occurrence of a “critical mass” for green processes, the appearance of a single priority turquoise process based on the “critical mass of green pro- cesses”, the repetition of the priority process as a stimulus for the spontaneous appearance of subsequent turquoise processes. Describing the step-by-step process of turquoise orga- nization development, these tendencies may have a universal character going beyond the specificity of a particular sector.

  • Teal” Organisation? Case: Yogaia
    Mia-Riikka Mikkonen What Does it Take for a Startup Company to be a “Teal” Organisation? Case: Yogaia Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences Bachelor of Business Administration European management Thesis 26 April 2018 Abstract Author Mia-Riikka Mikkonen Title What Does it Take for a Startup Company to be a “Teal” Organisation? Case: Yogaia Number of Pages 26 pages + 2 appendices Date 25 April 2018 Degree Bachelor of business administration Degree Programme European management Specialisation option Name of the specialisation option Instructor Daryl Chapman, Senior Lecturer The world is changing all the time, and the management and leadership styles are also moving in a new direction towards self-managed teams and participatory working style. The topic of this bachelor’s thesis aroused the author’s interest regarding future management and leadership styles, including especially the concept of “teal”. The thesis aims are to describe the teal organisation model and its characteristics, and to study how teal organisational characteristics work in practice. The first aim was based on literature review concerning management and leadership theories and Laloux’s (2014) teal model and its colour classification system. The second aim was approached with a qualitative method. A case study in one Finnish startup company was made in autumn 2017. Seven employees answered the questionnaire. All employees felt that they did not have just one leader but they work in teams. Most of the respondents thought that they make decisions together and the management style was team-oriented and participatory. The main key factors characterizing the management system were innovation, empowerment and self-management.

The study is grounded in the role of quality management in improving strategic alignment in these scaling start-ups considering the change in their organisation context rather than adopting a best practice approach, focused on compliance. The initial focus was to develop a QMS which would support, the startup company, ReVibe Energy’s scaling strategy, and also to investigate the certification process. Discovering limited existing research and practical examples around the topic, a qualitative and abductive research strategy was adopted.

Abstract: Business organizations are amongst the main contributors to the sustainability challenge. Their contributions result from the current predominant organizational paradigm that cannot deal with the ever-increasing level of complexity of the sustainability challenge. Additionally, most business organizations lack a Strategic Sustainable Development approach with a clear definition of success for moving towards sustainability. This research looks at Teal Organizations, one of the most innovative organizational models existing today.

  • Thesis Submitted to the Cardiff Metropolitan University in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
    Investigations into the Effect of Structural Composition on the Efficiency of Multinational Bodies by Hazza Al-Hajery A thesis submitted to the Cardiff Metropolitan University in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Doha, November 2020 Acknowledgements I would like to express my appreciation to all my supervisory team (present and past). In particular, I would also like to thank Professor Alfredo Moscardini who provided me with useful guidance in pursuit of my ideas. I would also like to express my thanks to the Research Graduate School for their guidance in helping me to navigate the administrative processes of the University. Finally, a special to thanks to my wife, daughter, and friends who supported and incentivized me on this journey. II Abstract This research can be gathered under the general heading of Cybernetics (the study of organisational structure) which subsumes Systems Thinking. The researcher believes that multinational companies can be considered as complex systems, with emergent behaviour. Most existing studies and models have been conducted from a Western perspective and are set in the context of simpler organisational structures. There is no knowledge of a synthesis of three systemic methodologies (Soft System Methodology, System Dynamics and Viable Systems Modelling) to non-western, comprehensive regional intergovernmental organisations, such as the GCC, has been previously attempted which addresses a gap in knowledge. The global economy has seen the rise of many multinational organisations and it is important that these are organised and managed in the most effective and efficient manner. The optimal organisational structure for such organisations is not known and there is no definitive method for doing the analysis Two possible (and contrasting) scenarios are a centrally controlled organisation with limited autonomy for the members or a looser federation of autonomous states with a nominal controlling body.

We serve practicing and aspiring enterprise architects, as well as those who apply the holistic perspective of enterprise architecture to other disciplines. EAPJ informs their daily work and benefits their careers with content that is focused, concise, authoritative, practical and accessible. Turning our attention to the content of this edition, it would be a significant understatement to say that 2020 has been an unusual year, with the Covid-19 pandemic impacting people in all parts of the globe. The business world has seen significant disruption, with global supply chain impacts, widespread recessions, and enormous effects on both the physical and mental wellbeing of the workforce. We’ve seen large numbers of projects halted, business models changed almost overnight, remote working become a reality for workers everywhere and store shelves cleared through panic buying. Whilst some parts of the world are showing signs of recovery, other parts are still very much suffering from worsening economic conditions, rapidly rising unemployment, and of course, the devastating cost of lives lost. In a world facing so much change, this issue focuses on a feature article by experienced practitioners Keith Youens and Bard Papegaaij.
