Going Above and Beyond: Insights into the Lived Experiences of International Online Business Management Education in Times of Transnational Health Crises

Cet article propose de nouvelles perspectives sur les expériences vécues par les enseignants du supérieur, à distance et en présentiel, en période de crise sanitaire transnationale. En conséquence, cette étude ethnographique longitudinale étudie et présente une perspective émique en appui sur 17 mois d’observation des participants d’une population particulière — des étudiants en business management du premier cycle, apprenant en ligne et en présentiel dans une université de sciences appliquées située à Berlin — afin de conceptualiser les processus de réflexion des enseignants en appliquant des analyses thématiques. Cette combinaison permet la création d’une ethnographie riche ou, comme Geertz (1973) l’appelle, d’une « thick description », qui ne se limite pas uniquement à l’apprentissage en ligne. Ainsi, l’importance de cette étude réside dans sa contribution à une meilleure compréhension de la manière dont les crises transnationales ont modifié et remodelé le rôle des enseignants dans l’enseignement supérieur, qui visent néanmoins à internationaliser les études de leurs apprenants en repensant leurs approches pédagogiques en période de mobilité physique limitée. Cet article se concentre donc davantage sur les moyens, comme l’influence personnelle de l’enseignant, l’ouverture internationale ou encore l’incarnation de l’internationalisation, par lesquels les enseignants du supérieur construisent et comprennent leurs réalités vécues, et moins sur le nombre d’occurrences mesurables (Cunliffe, 2008). Enfin, donner un sens aux « thick descriptions » construites par les enseignants ne reproduit pas la sphère d’étude d’avant la crise, mais façonne plutôt un environnement en évolution rapide, contemporain, instantané et multidimensionnel résultant d’une accessibilité permanente (Bob, Bradshaw, Twining & Walsh, 2010 ; Gatson & Zweernik, 2004). Selon cette compréhension ontologique, cette recherche ethnographique interprétative analyse les enseignants dans leur contexte naturel, spécifique à la crise, en fonction de la façon dont ils construisent leurs réalités vécues, et, donc, dont ils donnent différentes significations à leurs interactions dans des contextes distincts (Denzin & Lincoln, 2003 ; Kromer, 2018).

Teaching and learning delivery modes in higher education: Looking back to move forward post-COVID-19 era

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced the education sector to adapt rapidly to online and blended learning modes. This systematic literature review examines the impact of the pandemic on teaching and learning in higher education, including management education and other disciplines. The review of 68 studies reveals that blended teaching, combining the benefits of face-to-face and online teaching methods, has emerged as a promising approach for higher education in the post-COVID-19 era. However, further research is needed to fully understand the dynamics of this mode, particularly in the context of business management education. The review highlights the importance of flexible and adaptable learning modes in higher education, with a need for institutions to continue promoting and creating diverse learning modes that meet the needs of all students. The use of technology is expected to continue to be integrated into teaching and learning, with a greater focus on blended learning modes. As the pandemic has emphasized the importance of effective and accessible education, future research should focus on analyzing the effects of blended learning in diverse nations and addressing issues such as access to technology and digital literacy.

Teaching from the perspective of the whole person is one of the major missions in higher education. While psychodrama was originally developed for psychotherapy, it is often used in group counseling, consultation, and even education in recent years. In business schools, psychodrama could offer a creative way for students to experience and solve key issues in business and management practice. This study explores the effects of using psychodrama as a teaching method in a business management course from an action research approach. The study attempts to bring new learning experiences to business education and at the same time adds humanistic quality and social consideration to students. With both qualitative and quantitative data, the results demonstrate that psychodrama can improve learning outcomes, enhance learning satisfaction, and even enhance the ability of students in business decision-making. Furthermore, this study also provides managerial and practical implications for both business schools and real-world business managers.

On Financial Bubbles and Earthworms: Lessons from Hungary’s Rural Pyramid during its Economic Transition

Abstract In the early 1990s, Former Eastern Bloc countries, including Hungary, experienced a broad transition from centrally-planned economies, managed by party-state bureaucracies, to privatised economies. Throughout the market liberalisation process, the Hungarian market embraced entrepreneurship as a mechanism for generating both private wealth and economic growth, despite a lack of experience and know-how in business management and financial education, made largely unavailable by the communist regime for more than 40 years. On these grounds, several Eastern European countries experienced the rise of Ponzi schemes. The Hungarian earthworm pyramid can serve as an interesting example of the financial pyramids that evolved during the transition of economies. However, some of the characteristics of the Hungarian earthworm pyramid suggest that it was a rather unique case when compared to other Eastern European pyramids during the economic transition period of post-communist nations. Our study concludes that, under different political and economic circumstances, the Hungarian bio-humus production by earthworms could potentially become a profitable venture, rather than a source for financial and societal damages.

Movie clips for teaching business management: Step by step

The paper proposes a methodology to enhance students’ learning experiences by using movie clips to teach business management concepts. We describe the entire management teaching process step by step, from film selection to evaluation through questionnaires. In this way, this design can be reproduced by instructors for teaching business management courses. Additionally, we carried out and analyzed questionnaires about student satisfaction and business management concepts acquisition with a quantitative multiple regression. The results suggest that watching movies improves academic results and, in particular, the post-viewing debate. Besides, the more current the movie is for the generation of students, the more impact it has on their learning, as they are more likely to pay attention. On the other hand, we cannot neglect the gender issue, as the content of the film has an important influence. Students may be disinterested in a movie with a marked male or female leading role.

Knowledge Management Practices for Sustainable Supply Chain Management: A Challenge for Business Education

In the last decades, business competition has been increasingly among supply chains (SCs) rather than individual firms. Today, considering the challenges of environmental, social, and economic sustainability, it is becoming even more vital to coordinate and co-manage company resources, activities, and innovative efforts at the SC level. Consequently, knowledge, which is a critical resource for companies, needs to be managed properly not only in single firms but also across SCs. For the education of business managers, this implies a double challenge: first, to make students and future executives become aware of the knowledge management (KM) practices that can be adopted; second, to facilitate the assimilation of these practices for the effective management of SCs, to ensure higher economic and environmentally sustainable performances. Standard definitions and classifications can be of great help, but the current studies are very fragmented. This study contributes by exploring the literature and examining the KM practices that are proposed and defined by the different authors. A systematic review and a descriptive analysis of selected papers showed the trend and focus of papers in the KM and SC fields. In addition, based on the definitions and classifications drawn from the literature, this paper discusses a possible systematization of the key KM practices in SCs. The major contribution of this paper is the effort of re-definition and re-classification of KM practices and their potential importance for effective and sustainable SC management. This analysis can be especially useful for organizing KM courses targeted to current and future business managers.

Business management education in the African context of (post-)Covid-19: Applying a proximity framework

ABSTRACT What happens when Covid-19 meets Africa? To find answers, this article examines tertiary management education delivered by the continent’s business schools in the context of Africa’s susceptibilities to the pandemic. The concept of proximity is applied as an axiomatic analytic complement to Covid’s transmission pathways impacting on the psychosocial foundation of human relations, people’s spatial distribution and their time perspectives. Taking management literature into account, proximity is applied to Africa’s business schools in terms of their immediate and long-term responses to the pandemic, suggesting practical post-Covid reforms considered from a humanistic management approach to management education and scholarship. A theme throughout this article is that Covid-19’s exposure of contextual vulnerabilities presents an opportunity and imperative for business schools’ re-missioning and renewal to enhance relevance, quality and building post-Covid resilience. The article provides a framework for the study of other Covid-sensitive sectors or organizations and theory development and testing using different proximity conceptualizations, frames and combinations thereof. Limitations of the study are discussed.
