Die Frage ob das Elektroauto mittelfristig den Verbrenner in Deutschland ablösen wird beschäftigt momentan Politik und Medien. Aktuell stellen Elektroautos trotz staatlicher Förderung noch ein Nischenprodukt am deutschen Pkw-Markt dar. Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht innerhalb einer ausführlichen Marktanalyse von Sekundärdaten ob und gegebenenfalls wann Elektroautos in Deutschland den Massenmarkt ansprechen werden. Hierzu wird der deutsche Pkw-Markt mithilfe von Modellen der Diffusionsforschung untersucht. Ziel der Diffusionsforschung ist es, die Verbreitung einer Innovation am Markt im Zeitverlauf zu beschreiben und zu erklären. Es wird dabei herausgearbeitet: welche Käufer Elektroautos momentan ansprechen, welche Faktoren erfüllt sein müssen, dass sich Elektroautos am Massenmarkt in Deutschland durchsetzen können und welche Faktoren den Verlauf der Verbreitung von Elektroautos in Deutsch¬land in Zukunft beeinflussen werden. Aus Basis der gewonnen Erkenntnisse wird schließlich eine Prognose zur zukünftigen Verbreitung von Elektroautos in Deutschland erstellt.

This research presents a cross-country comparison between China and Germany to examine the differences in mobile payment adoption. Past developments indicated that mobile payment penetration varies across countries, where some countries successfully adopted mobile payment, whereas others are still in a development phase. Lerner (2013) indicated that the difference in mobile payment adoption can be attributed to the difference between developed and developing countries. Therefore, a theoretical model was developed, on which basis the adoption in Germany (a developed country) and China (a developing country) was compared and tested for differences. Based on the technology acceptance model (TAM), the model was extended by Perceived Trust, Perceived Risk and Value Added Services. Furthermore, the model was tested in each country and compared through structural equation modeling (SEM) in AMOS. As a result, a significant difference in adoption of mobile payment between China and Germany was found. Perceived Risk showed a significantly stronger impact on the adoption of mobile payment in China than in Germany. These findings have managerial implications on the design and promotion of mobile payment to increase penetration.

Even though women and men have entered the managerial ranks of organizations
to the almost same numbers, women still remain drastically underrepresented. Of
the Fortune 500 CEO positions only 5.2% and about 21.2% (Catalyst 2018) of the
board seats are held by female leaders. For women of color the numbers are
shockingly low. These women are almost absent on most Fortune 500 companies
and only hold 3.1% of board seats in this category (Catalyst 2015). In Europe
however, the percentage of female director at STOXX 600 companies has
increased constantly over the past years and therefore resulted in slightly better
numbers. By 2015 almost 25% of directors were female and the average
percentage of female holding board seats made 2.8% (EWoB 2015). Research of
Carter, N.M. and Silva, C. (2010) shows, that even if women are graduating from
global leading business schools their career progress lags in comparison to their
male counterparts. This means that despite the organizations efforts of
implementing gender discrimination policies and focusing on gender equality, they
have not been able to fuel women´s career development (Ely et al. 2011).
But why do organizations still struggle to increase the number of female leaders
today? This report will elaborate possible factors that are causing failing attempts
of organizations in general to then conclude a strategic solution for Philips to
successfully change their people strategy towards gender equality. Research
shifted from the assumption of intentional gender discrimination within companies
towards invisible barriers that cause thriving women not to reach the top (Ely et al.
2011). Those barriers are deeply rooted assumptions about gender that have a
long history in the evolution of our society. Starting with how society is influencing
how people think about women being leaders and the assumptions they make
about the ability one being a leader based on gender (Anderson et al. 2006; Eagly,
Carli 2003). The key to success might be a shift in people´s mindset. Here fore, this report will introduce the reader to the problematic of the unconscious bias
(Cheryl Staats 2014). Speaking of invisible barriers this theory might be the most
important factor for organizations to make a difference. However, the question of
why so many women get stuck in the c-suite remains unanswered. One answer to
this question repeatedly pops up in research reports and papers which is “Glass
Ceiling” (Susan Chira 2017).
Because gender equality becomes more and more important for organizations in
order to stay competitive, Philips decided to shift its people strategy towards
“Inclusion & Diversity” in 2017 (Jong, de 2017). The reason for this shift also lies
within the innovative aspect. Diversity fosters creativity and therefor innovation
which is a differentiator for Philips. However, this report tries to answer the
question on how Philips can actually increase the number of senior female leaders.
It will identify possible barriers that need to be removed in order to support the
development of female employees to the top ranks of management.
The structure or this report is as followed. Chapter 1 will introduce the reader to the
research structure to set expectations and give an overview about how the content
has been created. Chapter 2 will introduce Philips as an organization after the split
of Philips Lighting in 2012. Showing how the function of Human Resource
Management is structured and what parts of it are directly influenced by the set
KPI. To give an overview on the literature that has been conducted and therefore
methodology, chapter 3 will offer explanation on basic concepts that have a direct
impact on women in leadership. Here the report will start to focus on gender
diversity and two major obstacles women have to overcome in today’s workplace in
order to be successful. Chapter 4 will provide a deep dive into the internal talent
management processes of Philips and identify possible improvement areas.
Chapter 5 will then analyze common concepts on how to support the development
senior female leaders and show opportunities as well as limitations for Philips.
Moreover it will be discussed how to best merge external concepts with internal processes in order to build a framework for the organization and its workforce.
Finally, the importance of engaging men into the discussion of gender diversity will
be underlined. Analyzing possible barriers men experience to determine what
prevented them in the past to join the gender discussion. Possible solutions will be
identified on how to remove those barriers. Chapter 6 will summarize the findings
of this report. It will be discussed how the new approach can be realized for Philips
as an organization.
Social Innovations in the extended Lake Constance area – an overview of the current activities
(2018)
In recent years the importance of social innovation for societies is rising. Therefore, the European Union realized, that political goals can be successfully achieved through social innovations.1 The concept is offering solutions for social challenges broadly based and in a variety of different fields Thus, the focus of this paper will be to identify social innovation activities in the Lake Constance area and the problems which are being solved through those activities. It will therefore provide a quantitative analysis of the identified projects including the main idea of the activity as well as information about the innovators. The key outcomes of this paper are, that social innovators are mainly focusing on current political challenges such as the refugee crisis. Problems which the society is already facing for a longer period of time, are less focused. It could further be identified, that the majority of social innovators are students or graduates. Also, most of the activities have their origin in bigger cities such as Stuttgart, Karlsruhe or Heidelberg.
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.
This bachelor thesis deals with the changing qualification requirements caused by In-dustry 4.0 and provides an overview of the current qualifications of employees and the accompanying future training measures to improve their qualifications, using Daimler and its strategies as an example. The results regarding necessary future qualifications are derived from an extensive literature research as well as an employee survey and qualitative expert interviews. Previous studies depict that due to Industry 4.0 and the transformation from internal combustion engines to electrical engines many current job positions are dissolving, but in return new fields of work are being created. Conse-quently, to see what challenges companies and employees will face in the future, the-oretical concepts were described and analyzed. As theoretical basis the resource-based, competence based and knowledge-based view as well as the strategic leader-ship approach were chosen, which explain how companies grant their competitive ad-vantage and future success. Afterwards, the theoretical foundations were applied to the resources, competences, knowledge and leadership styles relevant to Industry 4.0. In addition, the company, which served as the research object, was presented with its business units, departments and strategies. Conclusively, the results state that it is necessary and possible to invest primarily in basic knowledge using further training measures. Additionally, more intensive communication is required for the effi-cient implementation of the company's strategy. Lastly, recommendations regarding training measures to increase competences, limitations and further measures are dis-cussed.
Cybermobbing in Unternehmen!
Ein brandaktuelles Problem, welches sehr differenziert am Arbeitsplatz zum Vorschein kommt.
Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, die Unterschiede von Cybermobbing zwischen Männern und Frauen herauszufinden, ob überhaupt Differenzen zwischen den Geschlechtern beim Thema Cybermobbing existieren und welche Motive hinter dem Phänomen stecken. Ein weiterer Faktor, der untersucht werden muss, ist die Position innerhalb eines Unternehmens. Dabei spielt auch der Anstieg der Frauen in der Führungsebene eine wichtige Rolle, da diese beiden brandaktuellen Themen eng in Verbindung stehen. Diese beiden Phänomene stellen Unternehmen vor eine große Herausforderung. Daher ist es ausschlaggebend der Problematik Aufmerksamkeit zu schenken, diese als solches zu erkennen, zu untersuchen und effektive Maßnahmen zu ergreifen. Maßnahmen, die allen Beteiligten und den Organisationen einen Mehrwert bringen sollen. Sowohl eine miteinbezogene Studie präsentiert wer speziell Opfer von Cybermobbingattacken ist und ein Recherchemodell widmet sich den besonderen Maßnahmen, die als Lösungsansatz dienen.
The main goal of this thesis is to examine various factors that determine the price of crude oil. The analysis shows that the interdependency between the crude oil price and the global economic situation has shifted over the past decades. The oil price shocks of the 1970s and 1980s and the behaviour of the oil price throughout the twenty-first century give some indication of the change of this relationship. Furthermore, OPECs market power and the role of supply and demand elasticities are taken into account. Alternative energies, fracking and the behaviour of supply and demand in several market conditions are considered in the determination process of the crude oil price.
In consequence of the prevailing low values of elasticities and the limited number of substitutes in the crude oil market, price rigging and the regulation of oil supply becomes apparent. This yields higher profits for companies and countries acting in this sector, especially for OPEC. Nevertheless, the analysis shows that OPECs market power varies from time to time and is strongly linked to the conditions in the global market. This positive correlation ensures that no oil price increase can be enforced in a period of falling demand. An important role for the determination of the crude oil price can be found in expectations by global demand towards future oil supply. Increasing inventory demand due to tightening oil supply conditions usually result in higher demand for oil, hence higher oil prices. Given the fact that crude oil is a finite resource that cannot be produced endlessly, future price increases are likely. This process can be slowed by the development of alternatives and the possibility to substitute oil. Innovations and improvement of these alternatives can shift demand toward renewable energy sources. In conclusion, there is an upward trend for the future price of crude oil. However, the actual future price of oil will strongly depend on the impact of each factor.
The growing desire of firms to engage in international business, is the continuous need for growth. This paper is focus on designing an international market entry strategy for KARL OTTO BRAUN GmbH Co. & KG an OEM company, a producer of medical textile products. A prerequisite is market selection and entry, should only be possible with own branded products. As an OEM, KOB produces and packages medical textile products for other companies, who market and distribute the products under their own brand names. In this paper, qualitative and quantitative research methods are used. Expert interviews, desk research and questionnaires are employed, to gather evident data that will assisst in identifying a suitable market for KOB and determine an adequate market entry mode. Since KOB produces for other companies, caution is exercise not to enter markets, where existing key customers are present. This paper also studies market development strategies and in addition to questionnaire feedbacks, will support in elaborating a suitable market development strategy for KOB own branded products in a chosen market. The goal of the paper is to use the results of the empirical study to recommend KOB an international market entry strategy.
People are surrounded by many offers every day, a discount, a gift or a special sale. A walk through a store can lead us to purchases which are not necessary but in our minds are worth it. Pricing may be one of the easiest ways to influence consumers and to make products more attractive.
This study compares the pricing practices “use of word free/free offers” for example buy one get one free and “discount.” Those two practices have different influences on the consumer behaviour and the product perception. A discount tends to be less worth it than a free offer if an average customer would be asked. A survey of over 200 people was made to witness this statement.
This number of people were divided into two groups which were asked different questions via an A/B testing survey. Group A was asked about a free product, and group B was asked about a discount. Additionally, this study includes a field validation in the form of observation. Customers of a transregional drugstore were observed when buying a product. This drugstore where the validation was made offers a bi-weekly brochure with promoted products. Among them are discounts and free offers. The number of sales was compared and analysed to confirm the results of the survey.
Organized, competitive computer gaming, also referred to as eSports, are emerging sports within the sports entertainment industry. The industry generated almost 700 million U.S. Dollar in revenue and leading eSport titles attract millions of viewers to their events. This study aims to explore eSport live broadcasts of four leading titles and their appeal to be used as a communication media for marketers. It adopted secondary data from academic and scientific studies, journals and books from the fields of eSports, business and sports management to examine commercials, product placements, sponsorships and celebrity endorsements in regards of their applicability and effectiveness within eSports. Quantitative research in form of a survey among eSports viewership was carried out to gather data on viewership consumption patterns and perceptions towards said communication instruments and their effectiveness.
Findings suggest that the effectiveness of commercials rely on the timing shown during broadcasts. Product placements can be applied in many ways and show high effectiveness in terms of brand recognition in any form. Celebrity endorsements are highly ambiguous in terms of their applicability and effectiveness.
Im Rahmen dieser Bachelorarbeit wird untersucht, welche Chancen und Risiken ein Markteintritt in China für ein deutsches mittelständisches Unternehmen haben kann. Hierzu wird beispielhaft eine Internationalisierung für die S. Siedle & Söhne OHG betrachtet. Die Chancen und Risiken werden anhand der Analyse des Potenzials des chinesischen Marktes, der Analyse der Unternehmensstärken und –schwächen, sowie einem Vergleich der chinesischen mit der deutschen Kultur herausgearbeitet und anschließend einander gegenübergestellt. Die Arbeit wird in einen theoretischen und einen praktischen Teil gegliedert. Durch eine Kombination aus qualitativen und quantitativen Forschungsmethoden wird das theoretische Grundlagenverständnis eines Markteintritts gelegt, sowie eine Bestandsaufnahme der Unternehmenssituation erstellt. Anschließend werden diese beiden Themenbereiche kombiniert, woraus sich der praktische Teil der Arbeit, die Bewertung eines Markteintritts in China für die Siedle OHG, ergibt. Die Gegenüberstellung der zu erwartenden Chancen und Risiken zeigt, dass die Risiken eins Markteintritts in China die möglichen Chancen überwiegen, weshalb derzeit von einer Internationalisierung in China abgeraten wird.
Schlüsselwörter: Internationalisierung, Chancen, Risiken, Markteintritt, China
Die Reinigung von Wasser scheint nach den Anstrengungen der 1970er und 1980er Jahre in den Hintergrund geraten zu sein. In Zeiten der Trinkwasserknappheit in Europa ist eine Beschäftigung damit aber umso wichtiger. Die Auswertung der Versuchsergebnisse liefert einen Einblick in reaktionskinetische Modelle und Definitionen.
In times of talent shortage and increasing competition, companies are constantly
looking for methods to recruit better fits in a more time and cost-efficient manner. One
such method, which an increasing number of companies turn towards, are so called
“Robot Recruiters”, or more specifically, artificial intelligence enhanced digital
recruiting tools. However, the impact of the associated automation and dehumanization
of parts of the recruitment process on the candidate experience, remains unclear. In order to assess the potential influence of mentioned tools, candidate experience influencing factors are elaborated, to then analyze how these factors are affected in an artificial intelligence supported recruiting process.
The analysis has shown, that AI recruiting tools do have the potential to satisfy
candidates’ needs by automating simple, yet time consuming tasks like scheduling or initial communication. However, candidates are likely to show adverse reaction to their
usage in later stages of the recruitment process, which are traditionally characterized
by personal interaction.
In this thesis, new methods for text classification are examined and compared to the current software of the DNB. Due to technical changes in the area machine learning in recent years, improvements in text classification have been achieved. The objective is to improve the subject groups allocation of the DNB and to allow a hierarchical classification based on the DDC system. The decision was made on the HDLTex tool, as the structure of the DNB data set and the DDC system, which supports a hierarchical classification, are perfectly designed for it. The use of RNN networks on both hierarchical levels improved the current software situation. Furthermore, the approach was examined, if a combination of the predictions of the two hierarchies levels leads to an additional improvement, which, however, produced a negative result. Both beginners and experts find themselves as readers of this master's thesis in the target group again.
In dieser Arbeit werden neue Verfahren zur Textklassifizierung untersucht und der aktuellen Software der DNB gegenübergestellt. Durch technische Veränderungen im Bereich Machine Learning in den letzten Jahren, konnten Verbesserungen in der Textklassifizierung erzielt werden. Dabei soll die Sachgruppenvergabe der DNB verbessert und anhand des DDC Systems eine hierarchische Klassifizierung ermöglicht werden. Die Entscheidung fiel auf das HDLTex Tool, da die Struktur des Datensatzes der DNB und das DDC System, welche eine hierarchische Klassifizierung unterstützt, perfekt darauf ausgelegt sind. Durch die Nutzung von RNN Netzen auf beiden Hierarchieebenen konnte eine Verbesserung zu der aktuellen Software erzielt werden. Weiterhin wurde der Ansatz untersucht, ob eine Kombinierung der Vorhersagen der beiden Hierarchieebenen zu einer aufbauenden Verbesserung führt, welches jedoch ein negatives Ergebnis hervorbrachte. Sowohl Anfänger als auch Experten finden sich als Leser dieser Masterarbeit in der Zielgruppe wieder.
For a long time, car sharing has been known as a niche market, not able to attract a significant number of people. The cause of this has not only been car sharing services being inflexible with their offers, but also the high societal value of owning a car. Today, car sharing is more flexible with its offers and enjoys a rising popularity within the Federal Republic of Germany. A steadily increasing number of citizens is registered with local car sharing providers. This trend represents one of the many sub-categories resulting from the sharing economy, which stands for community consumption. Instead of owning an object, the customer pursues the objective of temporary use. Using an online survey as well as expert interviews, this thesis investigates if car sharing has an impact on car ownership. In addition, this research aims to find out if and how the endowment effect, which describes the phenomenon of people valuing something higher that they own than something they do not own, impacts the connection between car sharing and car ownership. Results suggest that a low degree of psychological ownership potentially could lead to a higher tendency to select a car sharing vehicle over a private vehicle. Relevant factors, as suggested by research results, are price and convenience. This implies that the endowment effect and the related factors should be taken into consideration when trying to establish car sharing services and reach customer groups, which have not been reachable so far.
Johannes Mohr, the owner of the start up company KARMA foods, has made it his life's mission to do something good for humanity. His idea is to make the world a better place by selling organically and sustainably produced products from Sri Lanka. Therefore, the company is also one of the so-called social entrepreneurs. Social Entrepreneurs are companies for which social thinking has the highest priority while doing business. KARMA foods thus supports social projects in Sri Lanka as well as animal welfare in Germany with every product sold. This is done by injecting a certain amount of money per product sold into the projects.
The social trend has changed significantly in recent years. As a result, businesses today are forced to adapt to the increasing health and environmental concerns in order to come up to the consumers' needs in the future. This growing health trend, especially with regard to healthy nutrition, also brought many superfood products to the market. Also the products of KARMA foods. The product range includes four products, the Moringa leaf powder, the Moringa capsules, the virgin coconut oil and the organic monkey mousse.
The aim of this bachelor thesis is to show the company different online marketing models, which are suitable for the marketing of superfood products. These are especially important in making KARMA foods better known to its target audience and gaining reach. On the other hand, they are more cost-saving than conventional marketing models. This is especially important for start ups with low budgets.
Another part of the work is to create a business plan for KARMA foods in order to give the company a structure and a guideline for orientation. This structure is a great help not only for the company itself, as all important business processes have been written down, but also a helpful document when borrowing money. Because potential lenders want to know who they are dealing with and whether they can trust the company or not. The work thus provides the company with important tips on how to make the KARMA foods brand and its products more widely known to consumers, as well as providing guidance on where the company currently stands and what it can achieve in the future.
For investors, it is common to have a look at the annual reports of the company of interest, before making an investment decision. But looking at the numerical data in isolation is not sufficient to get an impression on how the firm will develop in the future and if the investment might generate an appropriate return.
In this bachelor thesis, an approach to incorporate industry factors in the traditional financial statement analysis is tested. The structure-conduct-performance paradigm is used to justify the importance of the industry for a company’s performance. By identifying the critical success factors of the industry via a 5-forces and PEST analysis, and measuring the firms’ performance on this basis, a more comprehensive picture of a company can be drawn.
This method will be applied on the tire manufacturing industry, with Michelin and Bridgestone as examples, and the IT-service industry with Atos and Adesso.
The results of the analysis have shown that by regarding the industry CSF in the analysis, varying aspects besides the financials were taken into account, adding significant value to the analysis. After having identified trends and developments in the industry, it was also possible to better evaluate the financial performance of a company in the light of challenges that all firms of the industry will face in the next periods. With this new perspective, the possible future performance can be predicted more reliably.
The main goal of the study is to analyze students’ buying intention towards e-learning program by developing a structural model of e-learning acceptance by the students and analyzing perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitudes, subjective norms, motivations and buying intentions according to the developed model.
Die Duravit AG ist ein international tätiges Unternehmen mit Stammsitz in Deutschland. Aufgrund der jahrelangen starken Fokussierung auf den Heimatmarkt, sind viele Prozesse auch auf den selbigen und die vorherrschenden Normen abgestimmt. Für die Erstellung der technischen Dokumentation wird als Basis immer eine Step by Step Fotoanleitung, gemeinsam mit der Anwendungstechnik, erstellt. Diese dient als Basis für alle weiteren länderspezifischen Unterlagen. Die Anwendungstechnik kann die Montageanleitungen jedoch nur freigeben, wenn sie die Marktgegebenheiten wie beispielsweise Normen und Installationsvorschriften kennt. Hinzu kommt, dass die Duravit AG bei der technischen Dokumentation vermehrt auf die Bedürfnisse der Kunden eingehen möchte, da die Montageanleitungen von großer Bedeutung für das Unternehmensimage, z.B. in den USA sind.
Anhand einer Zielgruppenanalyse in den USA, eines Experteninterviews, mehrerer Mitarbeitergespräche sowie der Literaturrecherche werden in dieser Arbeit die wichtigsten Normen für die technische Dokumentation gesammelt und ein detailliertes Kundenbild erstellt. Aus diesen Erkenntnissen geht hervor, dass das bestehende Konzept zur Erstellung der technischen Dokumentation an die Herausforderungen in den USA angepasst werden muss.
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.
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.
The demand and supply for clean label trend have been growing continuously during the last years. Consumers are increasingly choosing to buy products that contain health and sustainability information. The negative perception of additives, colorants, palm oil, gluten and Monosodium Glutamate has been discussed and has put the food industry for challenging and expensive product adaptations such as recipe changes and design rejuvenation. A literature review based on academic journals and books provides an understanding of the consumer action’s and the food industry’s reactions related to the clean label trend. Furthermore, factors that influence the rise of the clean label trend are discussed. Health and nutritional claims are defined. Additionally, the motivators of a food choice for German consumers are examined. Lastly, an eye-tracking study was conducted to gain insights into consumers visual attention to areas of interest on a stimulus.
Within the last few years, the traditional retail industry in Germany has changed dramatically, experiencing a shift from stationary to multi-channel retailing. Whereas big corporations in trading can profit from recent developments, small and medium- sized retail companies struggle to stay competitive. The underlying paper examines these developments with a focus on small and medium-sized companies in the music equipment retail industry in Germany using studies and recent findings on the area as well as expert interviews that have been carried out in order to get deep insights into the industry. On the basis of the conducted analysis, the paper shows that the only way to stay competitive is through strategic specialization, which means differentiating itself from competitors within a promising niche. The strategy is implemented in an exemplary company within this industry and necessary steps for the strategy to succeed, such as a resourced-based view and a step-by-step execution have been undertaken. Even though it does not represent the one perfect way of implementing it, it does in fact provide guidelines and limits of such a strategy.
The real-world possibilities for blockchain applications are endless, yet few real-world use cases exist in early 2018 beyond cryptocurrency. Among the many newly initiated and emerging proposals for applications of this unique technology, the area of vehicle emissions provides an opportunity to bring the advantages of cryptography and decentralized databases to the collection and storage of scientific research data. The reporting of vehicle emissions has been a publicly acknowledged area of deceit and scandal, while the cornerstones of blockchain are transparency and consensus. There is, perhaps, a way for this newly expanding technology to provide a disruption to the automotive industry by efficiently and reliably reporting vehicle emissions.
This paper seeks to analyze: the capabilities of an emerging technology when applied to an existing older technology and its utilized environment as well as propose a system for efficiently and reliably collecting and reporting internal combustion engine based vehicle emissions data using blockchain; also, finally, theorize the impact of such a system on the automotive industry.
By combining multiple technologies which already exist in practice, as well as some which are expected to be massively implemented in the near future, it is theoretically possible to establish a blockchain based system for not only recording emissions from every participating vehicle, but also electronically executing a check against local emissions restrictions via smart contracts defined by geo-locational range and GPS referencing. The data can be processed and stored in a way that protects the identity and location history of the driver by assigning responsibility of compliance to the identity of the vehicle. The network can be protected from malicious actors by way of an emissions application specific protocol which involves unique GPS data.
While the short run effects of such a system may be met with pushback from the automotive industry because of increased regulation and impact on sales of internal combustion engine vehicle inventory, the long run effects parallel and may even supplement the future effects of the global trends which make the system possible.

This thesis Increasing Business Success through emotionalisation? Chances and limitations of Neuromerchandising® in the food retailing industry based on the example of HIT Markt deals with the changed customer behaviour of the modern customer and the resulting challenges for the dealers in the food retailing industry. Solely providing the merchandise is nowadays not sufficient anymore to hold its own in a further developing market of the food retailing industry.
Nowadays’ consumers want to be entertained and to be addressed with all their senses. Therefore, the dealers, may it be discounters like Aldi or Edeka or high-quality dealers like HIT or Rewe are searching for ways to satisfy the changed customer needs. This requires, besides an appealing design of the store a lot more: a rethinking of the dealers by which means one can bind the customers to the own store in a very active business environment.
One thing dealers have learned by now is that you can only be sustainably successful if you address the customers on an emotional level. During this thesis it will be analysed if and how an emotionalisation of the store leads to more business success. With the help of latest findings in neuroscience the changed consumer and buying behaviour will be explained.
On this basis, the possibilities and limitations of neuromarketing® in the food retailing industry will be discussed. With regard to current developments in the food retailing industry concrete proposals for solutions will be developed, how dealers can satisfy modern customer needs better. This will be realized with a concrete practical example: the HIT Markt in Engelskirchen, on which the practical part of this thesis focusses.

As banks have to close branches in the current low-interest environment and as customers show an increasing preference for online channels, existing channels of branch-centric banks no longer can guarantee to suffice the needs of the omni-channel consumer. Online consultation through video chat, called video banking, is a possible solution for these issues. In order to keep marketing activities effective and cost-efficient, it is of interest for the banking sector to define a socio-demographic target group for video banking.
Thus, the objective of this thesis is to find socio-demographic characteristics which influence the willingness to use video banking. The characteristics deemed as plausible predictors are then tested for their suitability as such through bivariate and multivariate analysis of an empirical study conducted among U.S. bank customers with internet access. The goal of the multivariate analysis is to find the regression model that best predicts the willingness to use video banking. Depending on the outcome, recommendations will be made about the definition of a target group for video banking.
Ziel der vorliegenden Bachelorthesis ist die Entwicklung einer evidenzbasierten Marketing-Strategie des gebündelten Produktportfolios der Aesculap AG für die OPCAB-Indikation. OPCAB wird die Operationsmethode der koronaren Bypass-Operation ohne Herz-Lungen-Maschine genannt. Zur Realisierung des sogenannten Scientific Marketings, die Implementierung von evidenzbasierten Ergebnissen in die Marketing-Strategie, wurde eine Analyse ausgewählter klinischer Studien und Meta-Analysen durchgeführt. Neben dieser Studienanalyse ergeben die Ergebnisse einer Repräsentativbefragung der Anwender, welche einen Teil des erarbeiteten Buying-Centers darstellen, Informationen zur Entwicklung der Marketing-Strategie und Planung des Produktportfolios. Die Zusammenstellung dieses Produktportfolios erfolgte durch die Festlegung des benötigten Instrumentariums zur Durchführung der OPCAB-Operation, welches mit dem bestehenden Aesculap Portfolio abgeglichen und zu schließende Lücken identifiziert wurden. Darüber hinaus wurden die internen und externen Faktoren innerhalb der strategischen Situationsanalyse untersucht, um eine erfolgreiche Marketing-Strategie zu implementieren. Das letzte Kapitel bildet der evidenzbasierte Marketing-Mix, welcher auf die klinischen Ergebnisse abgestimmt ist.
