A systematic review upon the online content provided for self-management of diabetes

Background: Diabetes is a major illness that requires appropriate education in order to increase one's understanding of self-management. With the advancement of the internet, the proliferation of online health-related content in supporting the management of chronic illness like diabetes has been ongoing; however, little is understood on the sort of acceptable and/or effective information attainable online. Objective: The aim of this review is to evaluate the current literature in hindsight of online management in diabetes whilst establishing the effectiveness of online management tools, the quality of the online information, and the methods of obtaining online information. Methods: A series of systematic searches of online databases were conducted in accordance with strictly defined inclusion and exclusion criteria relevant to the research question. Additionally, an evidence-based literature (EBL) checklist tool was used to assess the methodological and reporting quality of each study. Each article was peer-reviewed and screened for any biases. Results: A result of 11 electronic searches were critically appraised using the EBL appraisal checklist tool and all were found to have overall validity. The results indicate an increase use of online technology to empower an understanding of one's own health. Web-based tools like social media were useful in promoting the management of diabetes but were not able to provide quality information. Conclusion: Current research indicates the need for more investigation and future development of readily accessible and qualitative information in order to support the self-management of diabetes.

Evolution From Human Virtual Teams to Artificial Virtual Teams Supported by Artificial Intelligence. Results of Literature Analysis and Empirical Research

Design/methodology/approach: The research method is a literature review and our own empirical research concerning the new organizational reality with hybrid virtual teams consisting of humans as well as artificial agents. The research data was the results of a long-term observation of a virtual team which was conducted in June 2021 in a group of students who worked 36 hours using online management tools in TransistorsHead.com and MS Teams. Findings: The research has shown that virtual teams require different ways of communication and that consequences of working in such a team change the types of tasks, time spent working together as a group and social aspects of cooperation between team members. This experiment has shown that the decision-making process based on artificial entities can fulfill the requirements of virtual teams and that such entities can be considered as teammates or teams (Team As A Software – TAAS). It is also possible also to imitate a human-like manager (Manager As A Software – MAAS) or its higher evolutionary copy, namely a “sophisticated superhuman machine”. Research limitations/implications: The research results presented here are an example of research conducted from 2012 on, by means of online managerial tools, concerning the work of virtual teams and the opportunity to replace a human manager with a robot one. The answers to the research questions can only be applied to the studied group of students and cannot be generalized for all teams. Future research will be conducted with a wider group of respondents. Originality/value: The originality of the presented research results lies in the fact that the data collected during the research represents the real activities undertaken by the manager and his/her team members during the 36-hour work on the task concerned rather than being mere declarations of these activities by the respondents.

Impact of artificial management on the work of a team of humans. Result of research

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to present an answer to the research question of what could be the real impact of an artificial manager on the work of a team consisting of humans. Design/methodology/approach: In presenting the arguments for one way of proceeding AI-based management, a review of the recent literature in the field of artificial management and artificial leadership was used. The artificial manager used in the research was the result of a non-participating, long-term observation of a group of students working on an specific task, whose activity was recorded by online management tools called TransistorsHead.com. Findings: The real impact of the artificial manager on the human team members was very weak. Although team members were taking similar managerial actions as they were told by the system of TransistorsHead.com, they mixed the order and decreased or increased a period of the managerial actions. Research limitations/implications: Human members did not feel any emotional pressure on their behaviour from the artificial manager and they do not treat the system too seriously. What is interesting, the most obedient person was the appointed assistant of the artificial manager. The rest two members did not obey the rules. Practical implications: If we manage to create an artificial manager, it will be much harder to make it effective in working with human team members. The research on team management automation will impact upon the business by giving a chance of implementing artificial management. Social implications: even if we manage to create an artificial manager, it will be much harder to make it effective in working with human team members. Originality/value: There is a new research problem of replacing a human manager with an artificial manager which has to be solved in management sciences and managerial practice in the future. This paper contains findings which are the next step in solving a new research problem of replacing a human manager with an artificial manager. Keywords: artificial management, artificial leadership, virtual team, system of organizational terms. Category of the paper: Research paper, case study.

Technological Advancements in the Management of Type 2 Diabetes.

The increasing prevalence of type 2 diabetes is driving the boundaries of clinical diabetes care outside of the traditional office setting. The purpose of this paper will be to review recent technological advances in the medical management of people with type 2 diabetes, spanning the spectrum of care from access to healthcare providers/educators, to continual virtual support methods, on-line management tools, and technologically integrated medication delivery systems. Recent findings support a potential positive impact of technology on access to care, clinical outcomes, convenience, patient well-being, and patient acceptance. This includes the use of Bluetooth-enabled glucose meters, continuous glucose monitors, mHealth apps, smartpens, and insulin pumps. However, there are impediments to the implementation of some technologies due to cost and lack of insurance coverage. There is evidence to support the use of technology to improve the management and treatment of people with type 2 diabetes. Further research is required to demonstrate the long-term clinical benefit and financial viability of technology in the management of type 2 diabetes.

A Managerial and Linguistic Perspective on Researching Manager Behaviour Aimed at Replacing Human Managers with Robots

This paper takes on both a managerial and linguistic perspective on conducting research into manager behaviour. It presents theoretical foundations for creating knowledge about the activities of team managers using a system of organisational terms, and showcases how linguistic analysis can be applied to enhance findings in the area of management studies. The authors discuss the results of an experiment carried out with management students within the field of project planning. The students played the roles of team managers and were asked to plan a specific project using specified online management tools: Goaler (to set up goals) and Tasker (to describe tasks). All activities of experiment participants were recorded by these tools.

MANAGEMENT BY OBJECTIVES AS A METHOD OF MEASURING TEAMS' EFFECTIVENESS

The aim of the paper is to present the method of management by objectives in measuring effectiveness of teams. The main elements of this method – goals and tasks – were used to measure teams’ work on the same project. The quantitative measurers of goals and tasks let assess an effectiveness of teams and compare teams to one another. The methodology of the research was an experiment conducted with on-line management tools named goaler® and tasker® based on the system of organizational terms. This theoretical foundation represent system and positivist approach to management. However, this approach was developed in the mix research method. This paper contains quantitative results and conclusions about effectiveness of teams. For this purpose following measurers were used: numbers of goals and tasks in each group, numbers of actions taken by team managers, duration of teamwork, number of goals and tasks editions. Despite the fact that the method of management by objectives is thoroughly described and parameterized, human contribution in the application of the method in practice appeared still crucial. However, the originality of this paper comes from implementing online management tools which are based on the system of organizational terms and using them to measure human behavior.

Selling rooms online: the use of social media and online travel agents

Findings – Findings highlight the constant tension between visibility and online sales in the web arena, as well as a clear distinction in social media and OTA web site adoption between hospitality structures using online management tools and employing personnel with specific skills. Practical implications – The research highlights the need for the hospitality industry to maintain an effective presence on social media and OTAs in order to move towards the creation of a new form of social booking technologies to increase their visibility and sales. Originality/value – This research contributes to understanding the major role played by OTAs and social media in the hospitality industry while underlining the possibility of a major interplay between the two.

Differences in Perception of the Participants in the Management Process and Its Real Trajectory

The aim of the paper is to present results of the research that was focused on managers’ behaviours. We tried to discover the main differences between the real trajectory and perception of managers in the field of two types of management processes. In the first part of the paper there is a theoretical foundation of process management and conclusions that led to a research model. In the second part we present the state of art in the field of human perception theories. Then, we describe assumptions of the research and methods of gathering data. What is important in the case of research method, an observation and a survey were used. The observation was done using the online management tools. During the research, managers were given a small project to lead. We recorded their actions and when their projects were completed, we asked them how they had acted. As a result of the research, there are three examples of description of managers’ behaviours and their perception. In the introduction we formulated two hypotheses and on the grounds of the research result we prove both statements in conclusion of the paper.
