“…The multiple-party data collection procedures will allow the researcher to follow up on participants' responses and ask them to explain some of their responses (Cronin, 2014;Wishkoski, 2020;Xu et al, 2021). The basis for interviews with non-practitioners will emerge from the ITTD, the research participants in the LCs and the PI results.…”

“…The use of an inductive approach is envisaged to allow iteratively unearthing differences in the emerging constructs and themes (Thomas, 2011;Wishkoski, 2020). Thomas (2006) and Xu et al (2021) favored an inductive approach whenever a research question can be dissected into sub-questions that can be investigated qualitatively. The study on BRPs' PAF can examine the research question: How should BRPs be accredited as professionals by their relevant PBs?…”

This essay paper provides methodological considerations for research on turnaround management (business rescue) practitioner (BRP) accreditation. The article responds to recent BRP licensing debates and the need to enhance BRP capabilities through continuing professional development (CPD). We assess existing data collection procedures using the practice theory and demonstrate sequenced integrated data collection procedures (IDCPs) to study BRPs’ professional accreditation frameworks. We illustrate IDCPs using a research design for “how BRPs should be accredited by their professional bodies (PBs) before obtaining a practice license”. The proposed IDCPs call for the purposeful interpretation of legislative instruments governing BRP work and other multiple-party data collection techniques. The paper lays out the problems associated with using questionnaire surveys and semi-structured interviews to document BRP practices and the required professional capabilities. We propose a research design to illustrate the application of the IDCPs in a multiple PB occupation.

“…Thanks to definitional ambiguities, tourist scams were often ignored. By initially concentrating on conceptual differences between a family of similar words and incorporating the philosophy of social interaction, we treated tourist scams as a research package (Xu, Pearce, & Chen, 2021).…”

The Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia since March 2020 has had an impact on negative economic growth for two quarters, namely minus 5.2 percent in the second quarter and minus 3.49 percent in the third quarter (yoy). Likewise, the economic growth of Kulon Progo Regency is expected to experience a drastic decline in 2021, after 2019/2019 had the highest growth reaching 18 percent.This article aims to analyze impact the Covid-19 pandemic has on the economy growth of Kulon Progo Regency per economic sector. This article also projections Kulon Progo's economic growth until 2024 using eleven projection methods. From the results of the projections carried out, the Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) of Kulon Progo Regency in 2020 is predicted to slow down due to the Covid-19 pandemic case which affects almost all sectors. However, this decline only occurred in 2020, because in the following year several sectors are predicted to increase in line with the improving situation and operation of infrastructure projects. Several sectors that will increase, such as the transportation and warehousing sectors, due to normal activities at Yogyakarta International Airport (YIA). Based on the optimistic, moderate, and pessimistic scenario, Kulon Progo Regency's economic growth will continue to grow positively. There are two contributions of this research, firstly analyzing the impact of the pandemic and projecting the impact for the next 4 years and secondly, the projection is carried out using the best model of eleven methods.

“…Innovation is directed by a creative orientation, and, within the global pandemic, four principal types of innovation have arisen: process, product, marketing, and organization. In addition, various combinations of contactless service and delivery methods have arisen to deal with consumers' dissatisfaction with current performance by leveraging novel technological and social opportunities [32,42,43]. For example, restaurants have cooperated with start-up digital and delivery platforms in a dynamic attempt to meet the burgeoning needs of the marketplace.…”

“…where a k ij indicates the preference intensity toward influential criteria i and j as compared by evaluator k, a ij = 1 represents indifference between influential criteria i and j, a ij = 3, 5, 7, 9 evidence that criterion i is comparatively more important than criterion j, and a ij = 1 3 , 1 5 , 1 7 , 1 9 denotes that influential criterion i is less important than criterion j. The symbol "×" represents the preservation of a k ij , which denotes an opposite comparison [43]. (2) The preference value a k ij was transformed into p k ij utilizing an interval scale [0, 1] before deriving the preserved p k ij on the basis of the reciprocal transitivity property, as shown below.…”

Prediction of Knowledge Management for Success of Franchise Hospitality in a Post-Pandemic Economy

Due to its unpredictability, the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has changed the global business climate and commercial management practices in unprecedented ways. As a direct result of the pandemic, the hospitality and tourism sectors have shut down, and business failure rates have occurred exponentially. The franchise hospitality industry has experienced significant impact and challenged a basic understanding of knowledge management (KM) implementation in the face of the COVID-19 outbreak. A strategic KM implementation practice can not only guide a large-scale operation, but also adjust an organization’s performance and competitiveness. The purpose of this study is to examine the influential criteria of success through effective KM implementation and to predict the probability of successful KM in a post-pandemic era. The conceptual framework for KM applies an analytic hierarchical prediction model reliant upon consistent fuzzy preference relations to assist the franchise hospitality sector’s consciousness of the influential criteria. An empirical case study is used to apply pairwise comparisons used to determine the priority weights and two possible outcomes. The case study will assist franchise organizations to analyze whether or not to implement KM, interdict application, or adopt revised actions. This assistance will enhance the success possibility of KM implementation within such a crisis environment. This study uses a case setting by assessing 15 franchises hospitality experts’ opinions in Taiwan relevant to KM implementation.
