By checking the monthly project progress report of any construction project, we can track the actual cumulative project progress in percentage. But it may differ from the planned cumulative progress percentage for that month due to the several delay causes on the project. So, can we calculate the schedule cumulative percentage of work completion for that month by comparing the baseline schedule and as built schedule of the project?
How can machine learning technology, deep learning and a specific generation of artificial intelligence applied to Big Data Analytics platforms help in the processes of managing the effective operation and growth of an innovative startup?
How should a system architecture built from modules incorporating implemented machine learning, deep learning and specific generation artificial intelligence, Big Data Analytics and other Industry 4.0 technologies be designed to assist in the improvement of computerised Business Intelligence analytics platforms and thus in the processes of managing the effective operation and development of a commercially operating innovative startup?
The development of innovation and entrepreneurship, including the effective development of innovative startups using new technologies in business, is among the key determinants of a country's economic development. Among the important factors supporting the development of innovativeness and entrepreneurship, apart from system facilitations, a favourable tax system, low interest rates on investment loans, available non-refundable financial subsidies, there is also the issue of the possibility of implementing new technologies, including Industry 4. 0, including, but not limited to, technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, deep learning and Big Data Analytics, Internet of Things, digital twins, multi-criteria simulation models, cloud computing, robots, horizontal and vertical data system integration, additive manufacturing, Blockchain, smart technologies, etc., can be helpful in the process of improving the management of economic entities, including service companies, manufacturing enterprises and innovative start-ups. These information technologies and Industry 4.0 can also help to improve Business Intelligence used in business management. The key issue is the proper combination of applied Industry 4.0 technologies to create computerised platforms supporting the processes of managing both the current, operational functioning of economic entities and in the processes of forecasting the determinants of the development of companies and enterprises, in the creation of forecasting models of simulation of development for a specific economic entity, which may also be an innovative start-up. In recent years, attempts have been made in larger business entities, corporations, financial institutions, including commercial banks, to create computerised Business Intelligence analytical platforms improved through a combination of applied technologies such as machine learning, deep learning and a specific generation of artificial intelligence applied to Big Data Analytics platforms. Such processes for improving Business Intelligence analytical platforms are carried out in order to support the management of the effective operation and development of a commercially operating specific business entity. Therefore, in a situation where specific financial resources are available to create analogous Business Intelligence analytical platforms, it is possible to apply an analogous solution to support the management of the effective operation and development of a commercially functioning specific innovative start-up.
In view of the above, I address the following question to the esteemed community of scientists and researchers:
How can machine learning technology, deep learning and a specific generation of artificial intelligence applied to Big Data Analytics platforms help in the processes of managing the effective operation and development of an innovative startup?
How should a system architecture built from modules containing implemented machine learning technology, deep learning and a specific generation of artificial intelligence, Big Data Analytics and other Industry 4.0 technologies be designed to assist in the improvement of computerised Business Intelligence analytics platforms and thus in the processes of managing the effective operation and development of a commercially operating innovative startup?

What are the applications of digital twins in conjunction with artificial intelligence, Big Data Analytics and other Industry 4.0 technologies in creating simulations of digital models of complex macroprocesses?
The technology of digital twins is used, among other things, to simulate production, logistics processes in business entities, i.e. in the microeconomic field. The creation of digital twins for specific economic and financial processes carried out in economic entities supports the management of these entities. Computer simulations of e.g. production processes, offering of services, supply and procurement logistics, distribution logistics, marketing communication with customers, etc. save time and money, as possible errors in decisions generate much smaller negative effects if they are realised not within the framework of real processes and a kind of experimentation on a functioning enterprise, company, corporation, institution, etc., but within the framework of computer simulation. but within the framework of a computer simulation in which various alternative variants of the development of the economic and financial situation of a company are considered and compared with each other as forecasts of specific processes defined for the following days, weeks, months, quarters or years. Therefore, since the pandemic, many companies and enterprises in Poland have been investing in the creation of IT systems equipped with digital twin technologies, within which it is possible to create multi-criteria, multi-faceted, complex simulation models of specific economic and other processes realised within the company, and/or simulation of processes realised at the level of the company's relations with the environment, with business partners, customers, cooperators, etc.
On the other hand, the possibilities of creating simulations for macroprocesses, i.e. e.g. macroeconomic processes, natural processes, technological processes, geological processes, social processes, long-term climate change, cosmological processes, etc., through the use of digital twin technologies and also other Industry 4.0 technologies, including learning machines, deep learning, artificial intelligence, analytics carried out on Big Data Analytics platforms, are a matter of debate. Year on year, due to technological advances in ICT, including the use of new generations of microprocessors characterised by ever-increasing computing power, the possibilities for increasingly efficient, multi-criteria processing of large collections of data and information are growing. Artificial intelligence can be particularly useful in the field of selective and precise search for specific, defined types of information and data extracted from many selected types of websites and real-time transfer and processing of these data in database systems organised in cloud computing on Big Data Analytics platforms, which would be accessed by a system managing a built and updated model of a specific macro-process using digital twin technologies.
In view of the above, I address the following question to the esteemed community of scientists and researchers:
What are the applications of digital twins in conjunction with Artificial Intelligence, Big Data Analytics and other Industry 4.0 technologies for creating simulated digital models of complex macroprocesses?

Henry Mintzberg did his Ph.D thesis studying 10 executives. He wrote a book about ten different role of a successful manager. Frederic Taylor invented the scientific management theory By observing the work in the factory!
Adam Smith studies the pin's factory and wrote a book about the Wealth of Nations...
What are the basis for good theory? Is it a statistical rigorous approach? Or is it à in depth understanding of the reality? How can we write a good theory which is a statement of causality! A Good theory help us to understand or predict the future
Does your organization currently leverage the principles of Leader-Member Exchange?
I am looking for a medium-sized organization using LMX theory to conduct a doctoral study on the Experiences of Demographically Diverse Mid-Level Managers in Leader-Member Exchanges. I need 10-15 volunteers for an hour interview conducted via Zoom. If interested, please contact me at jlarks@email.phoenix.edu or (302) 824-9257.
I would love to hear about any materials you have found helpful and have inspired you to suggest to graduate students, doctoral students, researchers, and academicians to read for understanding or for refreshing their knowledge on research methodology and emerging research methods in social science (or management in specific but not necessary). These can be anything, for example, new books, classic books, and journal articles.
I hope the answers will help to create a comprehensive list of suggested readings on Research Methodology and Research Methods that would be helpful to anyone interested. Thank you!!
It is estimated (e.g. by IMO) that there is only 1-2% of women working at sea. What are the causes of this underrepresentation? Do women themselves are not willing to undertake such professional challenges? Are the socio-cultural obstacles (biases)? Maybe the sector needs more diversity management programmes? Maybe there are some legal obstacles, maybe in some countries or under some conventions women are not allowed to enter maritime professions? Do you think is there a growing tendency of women's presence at sea?
Greetings respectable community of ResearchGate. I encountered some issues while gathering data from the World Bank Database, hence I would like to know if there are alternatives or other websites like the World Bank Database in which we can gather raw data.
The website can contain whatever form of indicators such as (developments, governance, competitiveness, economics, financial sector, etc.….) Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Many people say time flows quicker and quicker. To some extent it is just the matter of getting older - one year for a fifty-years old is only 2% of their life and for a twenty-year old - 5%. Another aspect is our cognitive processes change, we get used to many stimuli so do not experience the present moment so intensively as children. But maybe our life is getting faster and faster (due to all the machines and equipments which are to make our life more comfortable but on the other hand need servicing, caring etc.) and we are expected to work faster or produce more and that is why we have no time left to notice or feel the time flow itself. Is an hour something less for you now than it used to be? Is this acceleration and inflation the social phenomenon (not only individual and cognitive)?
Hello. I'm currently in the process of conducting a systematic literature review of 'goal conflict'. Obviously, I'm looking at goal conflict research and known relations e.g., paradox, multiple goals, dual identities etc.
However, I need to uncover papers that may be relevant for goal conflict but may not necessarily be called or reference 'goal conflict' (e.g., paradox, dual identities). Does anyone have any suggested direction? I'm interested in org psych, management, marketing, social psych, sociology and any other fields where I may be able to further develop the conceptualisation of goal conflict.
Many thanks,

After the global financial crisis of 2008, did investment banking properly and reliably improve its banking procedures and credit risk management systems so that a similar crisis would not happen again?
The global financial crisis of 2007-2009 was the result of a number of factors that started as early as the 1990s and were then compounded at the beginning of the 21st century. Many mistakes were made at the time, both at the level of monetary policy, in terms of over-liberalisation of the functioning of financial markets and banking entities (in the mid-1990s, the separation of the functioning of deposit and loan banking from investment banking was abolished). Allowed to grant mortgages to uncreditworthy citizens. The missing funds for granting bad loans, i.e. loans that in 99 per cent probability would not be repaid on time, were no longer obtained from bank deposits but from derivative securities issued for this purpose, which were sold as subprime bonds to successive investment banks as secure and profitable investment financial instruments. Credit rating agencies gave these credit derivatives the highest AAA ratings, which just before the onset of the global financial crisis was no longer factually correct and was a clear example of a breach of good business ethics. There was also a high level of systemic credit risk arising from the underwriting of many of the thus unreliable mortgages by a small number of commercially operating insurance companies. There has been a lot of unreliability, the application of unethical business practices in credit risk management both at a systemic level and at the level of individual banking entities. The credit risk management process in investment banks at the beginning of the 21st century was not working efficiently and effectively. The banking procedures were not adequately adapted to the current realities of the technological advances taking place and new financial instruments, derivatives being created in a highly liberalised prudential standard of credit risk control. I have researched this issue and described these issues in publications that are posted on my profile on this Research Gate portal. I had researched the issue of improving the credit risk management processes carried out in commercial banks even before the global financial crisis of 2007-2009. Some procedural and normative issues have been corrected but rather not all, which should be corrected so that a similar financial crisis does not occur again in the future.
In view of the above, I address the following research question to the esteemed community of researchers and academics:
In the aftermath of the 2008 global financial crisis, has investment banking properly and reliably improved its banking procedures and credit risk management systems so that a similar crisis will not occur again?

Hi everyone,
I am currently writing a master's thesis at a small startup about strategic positioning. I have already studied the literature in detail. Very often the tool Value Proposition and USP is mentioned in the implementation of strategic positioning, but unfortunately the statements about it are often a bit different and I don't understand the connection 100%. Strategic positioning lies in the area of tension between customer and competitor and thus has many overlaps with the two terms mentioned. Once the positioning must be a USP / UAP against the competition, but at the same time also bring value to the customer, here the value proposition can be applied. What confuses me is that sometimes both the USP/UAP and the Value Proposition are done before the strategic positioning and sometimes not. I would like to find some literature that shows the connection in terms of a process or with the correlations. Is there anything like that?
I thank you in advance!

Which countries use permanent income hypothesis for managing their oil wealth?
I am a researcher student. I noticed that many scholars used scales developed in western context. However, may constructs manifest differently in different cultures. Thus, I have to develop scales by myself. After reading some papers related to scale development, I found the "item generation" stage is the most difficult. I invite researchers who have experience in scale development to share their tips in "item generations" and other stages. For example, is interview the only approach to generate items? Are there any tips for item generation? Are there any other suggestions for scale development?
Thanks !!!

I would like to do my end-of-the-year research paper on this topic, but I am struggling to find papers related to this subject.
As a fan of negative dialectics, and of critical studies in a organisation and management context, I believe concepts such as leadership, management and entrepreneurship are inherently dialectically flawed. These concepts emerge from certain contexts; they possess a variability which is difficult to pin down. I am interested in opinions on teaching these subjects without teaching them per se, but teaching aspects/key-dimensions of the contexts within which such concepts emerge. Please do let me know your thoughts.
Soil fauna play a central role in three ecological functions:

Schumpeters theory of "creative destruction" states that capitalism is never static, it is always evolving and old products are replaced by new ones. There is however a lag, or overlap where the old product still exist and people cintinue to invest in its development , but also at the same time a development of newer and better products.A prime example is the issue of type writers that was evolving even though computers started to overtake typewriters in sales and even as computers became the dominant product. Some as a well known Swedish manufacturer named Facit invested so heavily and could not see what was happening that they didnt seek to develop new and different products. In some cases governments are seeking to protect the old by regulation or other supportive meassures. One example of this is the use of fossile fuel in the US. Something critics fear will prevent the development of greener and more effective sources of energy. My question is, should governments like this support industries for the sake of employment or other reasons, or should Darwinism take its course? Is the developlent of new products always a good thing? Maybe we will have a rise of the Maschines and Terminators roaming the streets, or perhaps the development of new techlologies is a good thing in most cases and should not be hindered. What are your thoughts? The word is free!

I have conducted research looking at employee satisfaction with how employers handled their employees mental health during the initial phases of the Covid-19 pandemic. I sent out questionnaires to employees that measured three different scales, mental health knowledge, general wellbeing and employee satisfaction.
I am interested in looking at the comparison between all the scales. For example, employees overall knowledge compared to their satisfaction. I would like to compare each scale to the other two. Can anybody please give me advice on which tests are most appropriate to apply to the data on SPSS to interpret the findings asap.
Thank you in advance!
What will be the future applications of analytics of large data sets conducted in the computing cloud on computerized Business Intelligence analytical platforms in Big Data database systems in enterprise logistics management?
The analytics conducted on computerized Business Intelligence platforms is one of the key advanced information technology technologies of the fourth technological revolution, known as Industry 4.0. The current technological revolution described as Industry 4.0 is determined by the development of the following technologies of advanced information processing: Big Data database technologies, cloud computing, machine learning, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, Business Intelligence and other advanced data mining technologies.
The analytics conducted on computerized Business Intelligence platforms currently supports business management processes, including logistics management.
In my opinion, the use of analytics of large data sets conducted in the computing cloud on computerized Business Intelligence analytical platforms in Big Data database systems in enterprise logistics management, including supply logistics, production logistics, provision of services and distribution of manufactured products and services, is currently growing.
The analytics conducted on large data sets conducted in the cloud computing on Business Intelligence computerized platforms in Big Data database systems makes it particularly easy to identify opportunities and threats to business development, allows for quick generation of analytical reports on selected issues in the economic and financial situation of the business entity. In this way, the generated reports can be helpful in the processes of enterprise logistics management, including supply logistics, production logistics, provision of services and distribution of manufactured products and services.
Do you agree with my opinion on this matter?
In view of the above, I am asking you the following question:
What will be the future applications of analytics of large data sets conducted in the computing cloud on computerized Business Intelligence analytical platforms in Big Data database systems in enterprise logistics management?

Dear network,
I am working on a paper the goal of which is to show explanatory benefits of the philosophical action theory in the field of management (abridged version: ).
The paper is almost ready, but to position it a little bit better, I need more references to important conceptual papers about the idea of action (or about centrality thereof) in the field of management and organizations.
Besides the literature on routines - any other good examples?
Thanks in advance.

I'm looking for an interesting research topic or topics surrounding business management. Preferentially, any suggestions which have a focus on healthcare or renewable energy as these are interests of mine, but suggestions surrounding any discipline would be appreciated.
Dear all!
I hope you had a wonderful weekend. At the moment Im in the later stages of planning a hopefully good quantitative article in entrepreneurship. I will use connections in the industry (to do the dirty work of actually convincing people to participate )where Im active and my question is, what do you deem to be an acceptable sample size for a questionnaire about decision making, connecting into other areas?
It is a relatively small business community in our country so sample size can not be 1000, if yes there must be a discussion about expanding the geographical area.I know what the literature says but what is your experience regarding minimum sample size in different level journals. No need to say Im a qualitative researcher seeking to make an excursion into enemy territory :-)
Thank you so much for your input in advance.

What kind of scientific research dominate in the field of Business Intelligence?
What are the important topics in the field: Business Intelligence?
Business entity management processes are more and more often supported by computerized Business Intelligence platforms that facilitate multi-criteria analysis and reporting.
Probably in the future, the business analyst will be supported by artificial intelligence.
It would be a great advance in the field of automation and objectification of multi-criteria economic analyzes of business entities.
Complex, multi-criteria analyzes regarding the verification of large companies' operations require aggregation and analytical processing of large data sets in Big Data database systems.
However, in what direction will technological progress be realized in this field?
In the future, as part of the progressing computerization of analytical processes, it will be possible to implement artificial intelligence to the processes of analyzing large collections of information collected in Big Data database systems.
Apparently, we are now living in the era of the fourth technological revolution, known as Industry 4.0.
The previous three technological revolutions:
1. The industrial revolution of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, determined mainly by the industrial application of the invention of a steam engine.
2. Electricity era of the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century.
3. The IT revolution of the second half of the twentieth century determined by computerization, the widespread use of the Internet and the beginning of the development of robotization.
The current fourth technological revelation, known as Industry 4.0, is motivated by the development of the following factors:
- artificial intelligence,
- cloud computing,
- machine learning,
- Big Data database technologies,
- Internet of Things.
On the basis of the development of these IT instruments and technologies, business analytics of companies such as Business Intelligence and the above-mentioned areas have been dynamically developing in recent years.
In view of the above, I turn to you with the following question: In what direction will the current technological revolution, known as Industry 4.0, develop?
Please, answer, comments. I invite you to the discussion.

University graduates work in various companies and at first, find it difficult since what they learned is of very little or no help in the new job. The work is very specific and very little of it is covered in the university curriculum. Should universities focus more on job-specific skills or continue with academic education? what are the consequences?
Core competencies have been defined as the skills, capabilities and proficiencies that give businesses a competitive advantage.
We are doing research where it would be useful to 1) identify and specify the core competencies of different companies and 2) classify or categorize those competencies.
Are there any frameworks, models or processes that would help us?
Hi there,
through my research, I am more and more coming to the conclusion that the contexts of corporate change turn out to be essential. For example, a transformation in agriculture is regulated quite differently than in the aerospace industry. In a recent presentation by Daimler's CEO, this aspect was emphasized in particular (ecosystems, increasing networking, etc.).
Beyond the ambiguous definitions of change, there are, as you surely know, various approaches to characterizing corporate change. One comprehensive approach is presented by Albach et al. 2014 (https://t1p.de/rk70), see appendix.
There are also characterizations for economic activities, the International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities, both as a broad and very detailed industry specification: https://t1p.de/7cth
Do you know if there is already research in this area? Which disciplines are addressing the question of how industry contexts (macro) influence corporate change (micro)?
Certainly, it is not possible to cover all industries, but is there, for example, research in the context of C - Manufacturing? How do the industry-specific characteristics of the manufacturing industry affect corporate change projects? Are there certain change characteristics (features, certain dynamics, etc.) that are always expressed in the same way on a broad or detailed industry classification?
How would you proceed methodically with the investigation? I thought first of all of an investigation of the rough structure, e.g. expert interviews and a subsequent survey? Feel free to "brainstorm" as an answer as well.
Thank you and best Greetings from Aachen, Germany

However, there is also a lot of conflicting material and papers out there on the millennials, and not sure if I would end up studying two separate matters with this topic.
My question is if someone has any tips on how to attack this? If you have some expertise on the topics, and willing to share some thoughts/info/guidance it would be of great help. Ultimately, any help or feedback is very much appreciated!
Best,
Ario
Good evening,
I am doing a research in strategic management. For the methodology, I would like to send a questionnaire to mananers from some companies and ask them to fill it out.
Here is the structure:
1) classification questions;
2) statements that investigate certain areas of their companies. Example: for area A (e.g. oganization) there are 5 questions like the following one: "Your company is very good at ....."
Each respondent has to answer in a scale ranging from 1 to 7 (1= not true at all; 7 = very true) (Not sure whether to call it a "Likert scale").
- Is it okay to use a factor analysis to test the reliability and validity in this case? If yes, any particular one? (confirmatory, explorative)?
- Should be used a small sample for testing?
- What to do if the analysis shows poor construction of the questionnaire?
Doing some research on the internet I found also the so called "McDonald's omega" that can be used instead of the Cronbach's Alpha. Has anyone ever used it?
Thanks for your attention.
Vito
P.S. Can anyone suggest me some books/articles about social science research?
The improvement of specific risk management systems is particularly important in many areas of functioning of commercial business entities, financial institutions, public institutions as well as conducting investment, research and other projects.
How important is this is, for example, the global financial crisis that appeared in mid-September 2008, when specific financial, investment and credit risk management systems were not properly improved and the procedures of investment activity, including credit, were not carried out reliably, as well as customer service, and violation of business ethics in investment banks operating at the time and many other types of financial institutions and business entities.

Do you really know what is PMO?
Hello Everyone,
I hope everyone here is doing good.
I’m actually conducting interviews in the scope of my master thesis. The topic is “The added value of PMO in organizations”. To make the interview easier and convenient, I did an online form where participants can fill in their answers directly. However, those interested can still get in touch with me for a physical or phone interview.
Filling this form will take about 10 to 15mins of your time, but this will be a worth contribution in the development and better understanding of the profession.
Please fill free to criticize the structure of the interview or give any feedback or comments in the last part of the form. You can also leave your contact details for the outcome of this work.
Thanks in advance

I have often wondered if it is possible or recomended to teach business, management, marketing etc without practical experience of the subject. I have been a businessman for over 20 years, consultancy, transport, fiduciary and recruiting. I have had my ups and downs. I seen the positive and the negative and done things hands on. How ever if I look back at my former professors and lecturers I would say almost none of them had any experience and sometimes I felt in hindsight that they had no idea on how to connect theory and practice and to be critical. What are your thoughts?should hands on experience be mandatory in order to be allowed to teach a subject? I know this is a sensitive issue and be sure I ask this question with the greatest of respect. Are there ways of getting around the lack of experience? For me it seems difficult because a lecturer who has been in the game can provide another dimention compared to some one who never left academia. For me the difference is like playng football and watching football? Im sure there are great lecturers out there without experience of what they are teaching but what are your thoughts in general? Best regards Henrik
