In the context of globalization and transformations, the knowledge potential management is an effective tool for increasing the effectiveness of organizations. The aim of the research is to study the procedural approach to the organization knowledge potential management, to distinguish the main knowledge management processes and to present suggestions on how to improve the knowledge management process model. The organization's knowledge potential in this study is defined, as the organization's resources and market opportunities, generating its knowledge potential, complexity and effective management of which create prerequisites for meeting the changing individual user needs, creating reciprocal value, uniqueness and leadership in the global marketplace. The conceptual knowledge management process model has been improved, based on the research. The first step in the model is the choice of a knowledge strategy, covering aspects of the formation and selection of strategic decision-making in knowledge potential management. The choice of an appropriate knowledge strategy brings to its implementation through a process of knowledge management cycle, consisting of knowledge acquisition, sharing, development, preservation and application of it. The knowledge management process model is completed with an evaluation of the knowledge strategy implementation.
International branch campus is a rather new phenomenon in higher education and it is often questioned if it is an effective tool for HEI competitiveness because of its high risks and extremely high costs. In order for higher education institution managers to be able to use an international branch campus (IBC) as a tool for competitiveness, indicators of IBC having the strongest influence on the competitiveness of HEI must be indicated. In order to determine the main key performance indicators semi structured interviews were executed with the top managers of international branch campuses globally and the gathered data was analysed and coded using the computer assisted qualitative data analysis (CAQDAS) with Nvivo software. Six most important key performance indicators of IBCs have been identified and the FARE (Factor Relationship) method was used in order to determine the weights of the latter criteria. A system of indicators has been developed to assess the impact of HEI international development on the university's competitiveness and a relationship between the key performance indicators of the IBCs and the university's competitiveness has been revealed.
Purpose – the purpose of the article is to develop a strategic map for international branch campus establishment and risk management frameworks. Research methodology – the methods of interpretation and conceptualisation have been used to analyse the context of foreign market entry in higher education and develop strategic guidelines. Also, the results of previous research executed by authors on this topic have been used. Findings – the decision support model for HEIs establishing an international branch campus has been suggested. Research limitations – the main limitation of the study is the vast variety of IBCs due to its newness. However, the main aspects of establishing an IBC have been addressed and presented in a model. Practical implications – the obtained results and the decision support model will contribute to the existing internationalisation practices of higher education institutions (HEIs) considering entering new foreign markets in the form of the international branch campus. Originality/Value – the proposed decision support model is an instructional map for the top management in HEIs, contributing to the strategic and systematic approach to the international branch campus establishment
This article contributes to the empirical literature on the drivers of eco-innovation within the context of an organizational capability and exploitative strategies towards a circular economy. It explores the dynamics of the determinants of eco-innovation. The aim of this study is to contribute to this debate by analyzing evidence regarding the different factors influencing organizational capabilities in “transformative innovation” to support transition while eliminating obstacles to sustainability. The practical contribution of this paper is a consolidated, complete framework of eco-innovation that provides substantial insights to practitioners and facilitates the spread of eco-innovative practices. This study will benefit policy makers, key institutions, and firms to leverage the organizational capability with the effective implementation of eco-innovation processes towards a circular economy, where structural changes and transformative eco-innovation are the main determinants. However, the exploration of eco-innovation dynamics within a circular economy is still widely disregarded, especially concerning the trends and dynamics in policy-making processes and strategy development. The research employed the multi-criteria SAW method. The purpose of the suggested methodology is to establish the criteria for ranking the drivers of eco-innovation adoption. Research findings indicate the nexus between the drivers in eco-innovation and social behavior, eco-design, infrastructural changes, and political approaches. This study provides a comprehensive framework for understanding the drivers of eco-innovation towards a circular economy with regard to organizational capabilities and exploitative strategies.
