ОЦЕНКА ЭФФЕКТИВНОСТИ РАЗВИТИЯ И КОНКУРЕНТНОГО ПОТЕНЦИАЛА ПРЕДПРИНИМАТЕЛЬСТВА В СФЕРЕ САНАТОРНОКУРОРТНЫХ УСЛУГ В РЕСПУБЛИКЕ БАШКОРТОСТАН

This article discusses the prospects for the development of the sphere of sanatorium and resort services in the Republic of Bashkortostan, analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of the recreational complex of the region, identifies the main problems of private management in the provision of medical, health and preventive services to the population, in the presence of large state sanatoriums in the region, which have a high rating and operate on a self-financing basis. Taking into account the existing approaches of experts in the field of social medicine, economics and health care, a mechanism for evaluating the effectiveness of the business activities of sanatorium-resort organizations is proposed. The developed additive model of performance indicators, which together allow determining the effect of the recreational business activities implemented by business executives, involves the analysis of complex target and diagnostic indicators and reflects the indicators of efficiency, effectiveness, competitiveness and the level of quality of the services provided by the relevant organizations. The obtained values of the target and diagnostic coefficients made it possible to evaluate the business activities of the sanatorium and resort organizations of the Republic of Bashkortostan by comparing the results of the analysis with the scale of efficiency levels. Based on the results of the assessment, it was revealed that private sanatorium and resort management in the Republic of Bashkortostan really experiences certain difficulties in functioning in the market system of the region. Some of the key problems of the low efficiency of private management are: the inaccessibility of lending, the lack of state support, the presence of many administrative barriers in the processes of obtaining and issuing benefits, and the underdevelopment of public-private partnership mechanisms. The lack of funding for health resorts is also due to the lack of a unified strategy for the development of the recreational complex of Bashkortostan in the region at the legislative level. The current regulatory legal acts on the development of small and medium-sized businesses do not affect the regulation of the SME sector in the sanatorium and resort industry and do not fully control the growth or fall trends in the estimated indicators that reflect the real situation of medical and recreational enterprises in the social services market. Based on the results of positioning the business activities of organizations in the sanatorium and resort industry in the region, key areas of state support and stimulation of their development have been identified.

Firm’s Sustainability and Societal Development from the Lens of Fishbone Eco-Innovation: A Moderating Role of ISO 14001-2015 Environmental Management System

Eco-innovation has gained considerable attention in academia as well as in industry due to its potential in mitigating environmental challenges and its positive correlation with firm performance. However, there are limited studies which have investigated the moderating relation of International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 14001:2015 between eco-innovation and firm sustainability in their contribution to societal development. This research is supported by a resource-based theory which explores the core-competencies of firms and challenges the resources creating the competitive advantage of the firm without compromising on the social responsibility aspect of the firm. This study proposes a fishbone eco-innovation business model, which includes production (product, process, and technology) and non-production (organization and marketing) business activities mapped with the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for societal development. This fishbone eco-innovation business model signals to the stakeholders about the organization’s innovation in their green implementation, which goes beyond mere compliance. The contribution of the fishbone eco-innovation business model to societal development will create a unique competitive edge and green goodwill amongst the external stakeholders, which will attract sustainably responsible investors for investment. This article draws propositions and develops a conceptual model for future empirical research on eco-innovation and societal development.

A comprehensive concept map for adequate protection and effective management of personal information in networked Chinese services

Purpose – This paper aims to develop a comprehensive concept map to guide adequate protection and effective management of personal information in the provision of networked services in China through comprehensively considering the multi-disciplinary perspective of personal information protection and management with respect to their multi-dimensional applications, multi-directional controls and multi-contextual analysis in today’s networked environments. There are different perspectives on what personal information protection and management is about, why and how personal information should be protected and managed in the literature. Little, however, is known about the relationships between these multiple perspectives and their implications to personal information protection and management in the real-world practice. Design/methodology/approach – A multi-methods approach is adopted in the study, including a comprehensive review of the related literature, a content analysis of the relevant laws, polices, standards, a multi-cases study of the relevant network services providers and an online survey of the Chinese citizens who are the end-users of the networked services to adequately achieve the objective of this study. The concept map building technique is used as a tool for conducting the meta-synthesis of the findings from multiple data resources in the development of a comprehensive concept map for personal information protection and management. Findings – This study rationalizes the importance of the identification of personal information for adequate protection and effective management. It identifies five perspectives on personal information protection and management, namely, law, economics, sociology, information technology and information resources management for their applications at the organizational level. Five types of personal information are identified in the study for protection and management, namely, identifiable personal information, personal identity information, personal moral right information, personal civil right and interest information and personal business and transaction information. An integrated approach consisting of risk control, security control and users control is proposed for personal information protection and management in the provision of networked services in China. The study shows that not enough attention has been paid to the personal information protection and management from multi-disciplinary perspectives with respect to their multi-dimensional applications, multi-directional controls and multi-contextual analysis in the literature. There is a lack of understanding of what, why and how personal information is protected and managed in real-world practices in China. Practical implications – The investigation of the issues of personal information protection and management with respect to the relevant laws, polices, standards, networked services and organizations can lead to a better understanding of what, why and how personal information is protected and managed in real-world practices in China. The development of a comprehensive concept map for personal information protection and management can be used as an effective guideline for the formulation and implementation of appropriate strategies and policies in individual organizations for providing their stakeholders with quality-networked services in today’s highly connected network environment in China. Originality/value – The paper is the first step of a comprehensive study on the protection and management of personal information for the provision of networked services in China. It provides a solid foundation for further research with respect to the personal information protection and management. It is the first of this kind of studies to answer the questions of what types of personal information needed to be protected, why and how they should be protected in conformity with laws, regulations, polices, standards and the needs of networked services and business activities of organizations.

The role of geomatics engineering in establishing the marine information system for maritime management

Maritime management encompasses the employment and manipulation of human resources, financial resources, technological resources and natural resources that relate to the sea, maritime navigation, shipping, port development and coastal protection. It contributes to the economic growth, price stability, transportation of cargoes and passengers, and business activities of shipping organizations. The efficient management of resources, operations and activities relies on a modern marine information system (MIS) whose information is provided by geomatics engineers and IT professionals, among others. This paper first introduces the role of the geomatics engineer as geodesist, engineering surveyor, land boundary surveyor, cartographer, hydrographer, photogrammetrist and geographic information system (GIS) engineer since all these fields are related to maritime trade, supply chains and development of ports and airports. It then describes the principal components of a web-based MIS and the important role of geomatics engineers in surveying data. This includes collecting data from electronic nautical charts (ENC) and raster nautical charts (RNC), by applying high resolution light detection and ranging (LIDAR), satellite platform sensors and GIS.

An extended performance reporting framework for social and environmental accounting

AbstractInternationally, there is growing awareness of the environmental and social impacts of the business activities of organizations. This awareness was heightened by the 1987 report Our Common Future by the World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED, 1987). In order to address the concerns raised, companies have increasingly reported the social and environmental impacts of their business activities to secure their right to operate from society. This paper argues for the importance of an integrated reporting framework that provides information on economic performance via intellectual capital (IC) information and non‐economic performance, including that used in the management of performance across social and environmental impacts. This paper briefly reviews three extended reporting approaches, namely IC, balanced scorecard (BSC) and social and environmental reporting. The paper demonstrates that the emphases of these reporting approaches, while diverse, could be complementary to one another and be integrated into an extended performance reporting framework (EPRF), which would provide a more complete account of the management and performance of an organization. The EPRF could empower stakeholders and facilitate change in the way organizations conduct their activities. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment.

Strategic Choices in Industrial Relations Management in Large Organizations

The policies and practices of management have become an increasingly important subject of industrial relations research. In both the United States and the United Kingdom there is growing interest in the way in which large organizations, in particular, exercise strategic choice in the management of their industrial relations. This paper uses data drawn from a survey of the 200 largest companies in Australia to examine two areas of strategic choice: first, the role and structure of the personnel and industrial relations function, and second, the approach taken to the management of relations with employees and their representatives. The results of the study indicate that the scope of an organization's business activities and the internal operating procedures that it adopts-particularly as they relate to financial responsibility-are not unimportant in explaining the structures and conduct of industrial relations in large multidivisional companies.
