Course of studies
The thesis introduces a case study research presenting the transfer pricing problem of a selected MNE. Hereby, the researcher derives an appropriate method for the case and concludes with a comparison of theory and practice. The theoretical part of the thesis evaluates existing transfer pricing methods as explained by the OECD, Germany and the USA. The second part is about the choice of the research methodology, case study research and expert interview.
The third part first introduces the case study, analyzes a theoretical framework of the transfer pricing process and evaluates the existing transfer pricing methods, which allows for the derivation of the most appropriate transfer pricing method for the case. The fourth part concludes the research by applying the derived transfer pricing method, the Cost Plus Method, to the particular case study. By combining theoretical and practical approaches, a solution to the problem is determined.
In dieser Arbeit soll eine Motorsteuerung für einen 3-Phasen-Asynchronmotor mit Kurzschlussläufer realisiert werden. Dabei soll der Motor in einem Gleichstromnetzwerk mit einer Spannung von 325V betrieben werden. Drehzahl und Drehrichtung des Motors sollen variabel sein. Der Motor wird dabei bei konstantem Lastdrehmoment betrieben. Des Weiteren soll die Steuerung eine Drehzahl des Motors von bis zu 25000 1/min ermöglichen.
Die Arbeit behandelt dabei einführend die Funktionsweise des Asynchronmotors und leitet ein mathematisches Modell ab, das anschließend für die Erstellung des Steueralgorithmus verwendet wird. Bei der Realisierung der Schaltung wird u.a. die Problematik mit parasitären Induktivitäten und der Umgang mit motorinduzierten Spannungsspitzen behandelt. Realisiert wird die Motorsteuerung als Umrichterschaltung. Dabei finden ausschließlich N-Kanal-MOSFETs Verwendung. Für die Ansteuerung der MOSFETs kommen Gate-Treiber-ICs mit Bootstrap-Kondensatoren zum Einsatz. Angesteuert wird der Motor über einen STM32-Board. Der implementierte Steueralgorithmus realisiert dabei eine Grundfrequenztaktung. Über diesen Aufbau der Motorsteuerung können die Anforderungen erfüllt werden.
Digitalization has made business virtual. As the current workforce is slowly adapting to it, the “digital natives” come into play.
We all know, that Millennials have a different approach to media and virtuality. They are practically born with it. But how would they perform if they had to use virtual media in a professional setting? Does the experience and the technology surrounded upbringing give them a clear advantage? Or will they struggle with this entirely new dimension of communication the same way older generations do? This Thesis focusses on the challenges of virtual teams, predominantly in cross cultural situations. But especially on how Millennials tackle virtual teams in a global setting, if they did not have extensive prior preparation.
The first part tries to identify the theoretical background of this paper – the classical challenges of cross-cultural communication in virtual teams but also the willingness of Millennials to use digital work tools for their future.
The main segment then introduces data and observations collected on the GVT project - a pilot project from the Hochschule Furtwangen University, where students from Spain, Finland and Germany took part in a simulation of virtual teamwork. In groups, these students had to develop a project about Erasmus at their university – but purely virtual to experience physical borders in teams.
A pre-survey and a post survey have been carried out on this group to analyze and investigate how perception and reality differ. Furthermore, the participants left testemonials and many virtual meetings were monitored.
This Thesis will conclude with chapter 3 to show if Millennials have a valid advantage in working with virtual teams. It will also show the necessity to train young people and change our education to a more digital approach, as business will inevitably become increasingly virtual.
Die vorliegende Bachelorarbeit gibt eine Übersicht über die Gründe, Chancen, Risiken und den potentiellen Mehrwert des Mehrkanalvertriebs in der 3D Druck- und Scanindustrie. Dabei wurden die aktuellen Vertriebsstrategien einiger Hersteller analysiert. Durch ein Experteninterview wurde ein theoretisches Modell des Mehrkanalvertriebs für Shining3D entwickelt und untersucht. Mit Hilfe einer SWOT-Analyse wurden die aktuellen Schwächen ermittelt und der Mehrwert des Mehrkanalvertriebs, im Vergleich zum aktuellen Vertriebssystem, genau beschrieben. Die Ergebnisse der theoretischen Untersuchung zeigen, dass der Mehrkanalvertrieb die Schwächen in einem Vertrieb minimieren oder eliminieren kann. Durch das Dazugewinnen des direkten Vertriebs kann der Hersteller näher am Markt agieren und sich besser um zukünftige Innovationen und deren Einführung kümmern. Der Mehrkanalvertrieb verbessert durch das Erreichen neuer Kanäle nicht nur die Wirtschaftlichkeit, sondern bietet auch ein Risikoausgleich durch Bildung eines Absatzkanalportfolios. Sollte ein Kanal schwächeln, so kann er durch die anderen aufgefangen werden. Abschließend werden mögliche Konfliktfelder analysiert und Lösungsansätze für deren Beseitigung beschreiben.
Das Thema ETPs/ETFs im Allgemeinen ist, obgleich nicht mehr brandneu, nach wie vor eines der aktuellsten und relevantesten des Investmentbankings. Untermauert wird diese Feststellung durch das ständige Wachstum und die Innovation der Branche sowie durch das Volumen an Vermögen, das heute in ETFs verwaltet wird (Assets under Management).
In dieser Arbeit werden verschiedene Methoden und Aspekte der Indexkonstruktion, sowie die Funktionsweise von ETFs erklärt und diskutiert, um anschließend, basierend auf den gewonnenen Erkenntnissen, einen Produktvorschlag für das Fondsmanagement der Deka Investment GmbH ETFs herauszuarbeiten. Hierbei handelt es sich um ein Indexkonzept, das abzubilden die Aufgab eines neuen Deka ETFs wäre. Die zentralen Punkte, die untersucht werden sind die allgemeine Funktionsweise und Struktur von ETFs, Gewichtungsmethoden und Faktoren sowie deren Rolle bei der Indexkonstruktion.
Mit gewissen Vorgaben durch das Unternehmen und durch eigene Recherche wird eine Strategie formuliert, die eigenständig mit Hilfe der Portfolio Management Software von FactSet getestet und optimiert wird. Hierbei wird unter anderem durch einen Backtest untersucht, wie sich der Index, bei Quartalsweiser Anpassung in den letzten 10 Jahren verhalten hätte.
Die vorliegende Ausarbeitung gibt einen Überblick über den Umgang mit projektbezogenen Veränderungen in Unternehmen. Eine Vielzahl gescheiterter Veränderungsprojekten in der Praxis (59 % der Veränderungsprojekte scheitern laut IBM) gibt Anlass um den Fragen nachzugehen wie Unternehmen, aber vor allem die Metabowerke GmbH, Veränderungen zukünftig erfolgreich umsetzen und in den Betriebsablauf verankern können. Weiterhin wird die Frage erläutert, wie dabei die Mitarbeiter mit einbezogen werden können um Widerstände zu vermeiden. Zur Beantwortung der Fragen wurde im Unternehmen eine Mitarbeiterbefragung, ein Benchmark, sowie eine interne Prozessanalyse bei den Metabowerken durchgeführt. Hieraus konnten Erfolgsfaktoren abgeleitet und somit Handlungsempfehlungen ausgesprochen werden. Es konnte herausgefunden werden, dass Wandel bzw. Veränderung immer auf verschiedenen Ebenen stattfindet: Auf Führungs-, Unternehmens-, Mitarbeiter- und Prozessebene. Bei Veränderungen müssen immer alle Ebenen berücksichtigt werden. Die Mitarbeiter stellen den Hauptfokus von Veränderungen dar und sollten anhand entsprechender Partizipations- und Kommunikationsmaßnahmen permanent integriert werden. Nur so können Widerstände reduziert und Veränderungen erfolgreich umgesetzt werden.
The thesis presents suggestions on how to manage project-based changes in organizations. IBM stated in 2008 that 59 % of changes implemented in organizations failed. This begs the question of how to manage and implement change successfully. A special focus will be paid on the Metabowerke GmbH. Second, how can employees be integrated in the change management process to reduce resistance. In this context, an employee survey, a benchmark, and a process analysis were conducted. Based on the data, success factors were defined, with suggestions for improvement. It can be summed up, that change always takes place at different levels: At the organizational, the process, the employees and the management level. For change to be implemented successfully and reduce resistance all levels have to be considered. The main focus is on the employees. By using different participation and communications measures, employee’s resistance can be reduced. They should be integrated during the whole change management process.
In the period from 2007 to October 2017, exchange traded funds (ETFs) exhibited an exceptional growth in assets under management from 0.8 to 4.4 trillion US-Dollar, causing significant developments within the financial industry that raised concerns regarding their negative impact on market quality and systemic risk. This work examines the development of ETFs and evaluates their effects on the financial system by conducting an analysis of secondary research and market data. Thereby, the findings do not recognise a significant risk stemming from ETFs, but in fact identify multiple necessary areas of research. Firstly, it is demonstrated that the growth of ETFs benefits investors through their stimulating effect on competition within the fund industry, as well as their essential role in robo-advise. Moreover, the alleged negative effect of passive ETF investments on companies’ corporate governance are examined and in fact turn out to exhibit a positive impact. Furthermore, it is shown that ETFs deteriorate liquidity and information efficiency of their underlying stocks in the long run, yet there has been no examination of the implications so far. Lastly, it becomes apparent that the pricing mechanism of ETFs requires further exploration as there are proofs of an inherent capability of transferring and amplifying liquidity shocks between ETFs and their underlying assets, causing price distortions and drops.
Today’s workplace is composed of three different generations, which are considered to be substantially different from each other. Popular press and academics defend that neglecting to address these differences can generate negative organizational outcomes. Therefore, there is a growing body of research recommending generational specific practices to minimize the effects of generational differences in organizations. Nevertheless, not every practice tends to be based on empirical evidence on generational differences, which raises doubts about its effectiveness. The goal of this paper is to propose reverse mentoring as a practice to help organizations understand and manage generational differences better. To achieve this goal, a summary of published secondary data on empirical evidence of generational differences in the workplace was gathered, and the findings were linked to the function/outcomes of reverse mentoring, which allowed for the practice to be recommended based on substantial empirical evidence. Moreover, primary qualitative research was gathered through interviews to support the findings. Despite the limitations encountered, reverse mentoring is proved to be a long-term beneficial tool to understand and manage generational differences in the workplace.
The MENA region workplace represents a strong glass ceiling for women who wish to climb the corporate ladder and reach higher managerial and leadership positions. To succeed, a woman must face deeply-embedded cultural and societal norms, which puts her in an inferior and dependent situation.
This issue is growing in importance and has only started to be covered by studies for the MENA Region, hence the purpose and contribution of this paper. This thesis will shed a light on the limitations encountered, as well as on success factors shaping the career development of these women. By recurring both to secondary and primary data, the discovery of unknown barriers will be possible. Moreover, it will discuss Entrepreneurship as an eventual alternative to independently overcoming the glass ceiling. The conclusion will look at modernization as a progress factor for the professional success of these leaders.
Globalisation and technological advancements over the last decade have changed the way that business organisations operate. In response to these developments many companies have opted for a global strategy which usually entails a form of standardisation. This thesis will focus on standardisation of human resources software. There are many articles and journals on the field of human resources management, the impact of technology of human resources and standardisation of processes in general but very little literature on standardisation of human resources software despite the huge role that it plays in supporting global HR strategy.
Using mainly qualitative research and primary first-hand experience this thesis will look into the factors affecting standardisation of human resources software. The assumption is that standardisation of HR software is the only option for global strategy and that it will increase efficiency, reduce costs and create other benefits for an organisation.
The research shows that when technical and non-technical factors are not equally considered standardisation of HR software is likely to take longer than intended and according to the measurements put in place it may fail completely or the perceived benefits are not fully realised. Additionally, constant technological innovations could redefine standardisation and the role of HR software in an organisation.
