Small and Medium Enterprises are facing challenges when it comes to outsourcing. This piece of work investigates the factors that are needed for Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the European Union to attain outsourcing criteria. Some of the challenges in the European Union face include; rising cost, risk uncertainty, large companies’ potency, internationalization and lack of entrepreneurship and innovation. Through understanding and choosing outsourcing criteria, they can select a type of outsourcing in line with their objectives and goals. Therefore, they end up achieving benefits. This could assist them in different sectors across the European Union ease risks. They find solutions to obstacles derived from within the different sectors located in the European Union.
This thesis analyses how the SMEs decide on outsourcing criteria challenges and how they can be changed into benefits. The literature findings help in contrasting sectors around the European Union to determine which outsourcing criteria could aid them in achieving resolutions. The complications and objections are due to the following outcomes which include; no loss or gain observation, no specific benefit construction, unexplored innovation strategies, supplier opportunism, outsourcing drivers and cultural fit.
Entwicklung von Handlungsempfehlungen für ein nachhaltiges Vielfaltsmanagement bei der Hansgrohe SE
(2018)
Im Zuge dieser Arbeit wird das Unternehmen Hansgrohe SE hinsichtlich seines gegenwärtigen Umgangs mit Diversity untersucht und mit der ausgearbeiteten Diversity Zielsetzung abgeglichen. In Folge dessen werden bedarfsgerechte Handlungsempfehlungen unterbreitet, um ein nachhaltiges Vielfaltsmanagement bei dem Unternehmen einzuführen.
Durch die Anwendung der Grounded Theory Methodik wurden sowohl primäre als auch sekundäre Daten analysiert und für Hansgrohe den gegenwärtigen Organisationsreifegrad und den im Unternehmen bestehenden Diversity-Ansatz, entsprechend der Theorien von Cox (1991) und Thomas & Ely (1996), bestimmt.
Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass Hansgrohe noch am Anfang des Diversity-Entwicklungsprozesses steht. Aus diesem Grund wurde bei der Ausarbeitung der Handlungsempfehlung zunächst der Fokus auf die Schaffung eines Bewusstseins für Vielfalt und den Abbau von Vorurteilen gelegt. Im weiteren Verlauf soll der Vielfaltsaspekt sowohl in der Unternehmensphilosophie als auch im Führungsleitbild und der strategischen Zielsetzung berücksichtigt werden. Für die nachhaltige Entwicklung des Diversity Managements wird des Weiteren die Einführung eines Arbeitskreises diskutiert, der die Diversity-Maßnahmen bei Hansgrohe langfristig antreiben soll.
The demand for talents especially in technical jobs such as Software developers or IT experts has significantly increased within the last few years. Many companies try to face both, the challenges on the German labor market and the so called “War for Talents” for these professions through becoming more active in Recruitment.
The theoretical part shows some of the issues companies have to deal with and presents possible Active Recruiting approaches which could be implemented. In order to do so, it is necessary to gain job-specific insights directly from this target group. For this matter, data was collected from 41 IT and Software experts by means of an executed employee survey at IDS. This survey should, inter alia, find out which incentives are valued the most for selecting an employer. Furthermore it should give an overview about the activity of each respondent in Social Media and business-related platforms and whether the employees would be willing to help recruiting talents.
The objective of this empirical research is to develop recommendations for actions for IDS in order to make the Recruitment of IT and Software experts more efficient.
On the basis of the above it was identified, that the Recruiting requires the inclusion of the specialist departments. The expansion of relations- and recommendation Management from employees to potential applicants could represent a supportive tool. Furthermore, Active Sourcing applied as a strategic component should find a more intense use since many of the respondents are actively using business platforms.
