Politikernes og forvaltningens medkonstruktion og konsekvenserne herafSecher, Christine (Frederiksberg, 2010)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This thesis is about how different e-participation user groups co-construct technology through the use in practice. It is studied how technology is used on a municipality level for citizen-communication and -participation with an online debate forum as a case in point. Users of online debates are citizens, politicians and the administration. In this thesis, I have chosen to focus on how politicians and the administration use online debates. I show how politicians and the administration participate in very distinct ways on the debate forum and thereby create specific forms of citizen communication and participation. Everybody can participate in the online debate as long as they give up their name and email. Periodically, citizens write quite a lot of contributions on the debate forum. But politicians’ and the administration’s perception of what is happening on the debate influence which role the citizens’s contributions will have for the politicians and administration, as well as forms of interaction between users. In this thesis, I argue that the users’ (politicians’s and administration’s) sensemaking about online debates as well as the mediation of the use of online debates have a crucial influence on which types of practice of online debate can develop. Online debate is perceived as an equivocal technology in the sense that the use of the technology is not clear cut but a result of the user’s sensemaking about the technology and thereby the sensemaking about possible acts and interactions with the technology and other users. Sensemaking is the primary theoretical frame with a special focus on situation-specific cue-frame-relations. The Municipality of Odder is the case and a unique one with its 11 years of experience within municipally facilitated online debate. The empirical data are contributions written from September 3rd, 2005 to April 15, 2008 (a total of 1983 contributions), 17 semi-structured interviews of ½-1½ hours length with administration and politicians in the municipality as well as different written documents from the municipality. In this thesis I show that politicians and administration act as users of the online debate in four different ways: Political candidate, councilor, administrator and mediator. The political candidate run for the municipal election and is only present in the debate the last three months before the election. The political candidate see online debates as a good opportunity to make him/herself visible to voters and competing candidates, and therefore (s)he writes a lot of contributions during this period. The political candidate rarely answers ordinary citizen’s contributions but instead decides to write new contributions or answer contributions started by competitors. The political candidate rarely gets involved in real discussions on the debate but instead choose to give his/her visions for the future of the Municipality of Odder. The councilor see the debate as the citizen’s opportunity to voice their meaning and therefore rarely participate in the debate, as this could have a negative effect on citizens motivation to write on the debate. The councilor reads the citizens’ contributions and once in a while the contributions act as input for internal council discussions. When the contribution reflect misunderstanding and when it is not only a few citizens who share the misunderstanding, the councilor chooses to write a report for the debate. It is usually the relevant committee chairman or equivalent who writes the contribution. The administrator believes that the majority of the contributions on the debate are political and therefore (s)he should not participate in the debate. The administrator sees citizens and business as partners. It is groups of professionals, which cover associations, organizations etc. and does not necessarily, see the individual citizen as a key stakeholder. The groups of professionals use other media, such as mails and letters, in their communication with the administration, as their input is often long reports and technical judgments. The administrator chooses only to answer factual misunderstandings in ongoing processes or more general issues in the municipality. The mediator, which is a role only a small part of the administration acts in, generally works with the implementing and forming the use of technology in the municipality. (S)he sees ICT as a way of increasing openness and effectiveness in the municipality. Online debates is a solution which the mediator believes especially increases openness and (s)he works with the aim of ensuring a continued debate. The mediator focuses on maximizing the number of contributions, on making it easy to participate and to make it possible to discuss anything, which is why the debate is in no editor or guided use of the debate. The result is that the individual user – political candidate, councilor and administrator – mediate the use of the debate and develop filters for their own and others’ ability to act on the online debate. That politicians and administration appear in these four roles in relation to online debate problematic several aspects of the use of e-participation practices in a municipal context. One aspect is that the four roles develop different practices for the use of the debate which function parallel on the debate without the development of a common practice. A second aspect is that a mediator role is established. An actor who mediates the interaction between citizen and politician, and thereby an actor who has a high degree of importance for what online debating becomes in practice. A third aspect is that the administration takes the mediating role and becomes a political advisor or an administrator of political decisions. A shift which neither the politicians nor the administrator are aware of. At the same time, the way the technology is mediated creates both synergy and conflict between the councilor, the political candidate and the administrator. Synergy and conflict which primarily can be related to the focus of the mediator on the increased use of the technology and the missing focus on contextualization of the online debate.

A model of integrative strategy making processesJuul Andersen, Torben; Bernhard Nielsen, Bo (København, 2007)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: There is general consensus that coordination and integration are needed to achieve efficient outcomes while distributed decision power and autonomous actions are essential to develop innovative responses. These dual requirements for operational optimization and ongoing business innovation capture the essence of organizational ambidexterity as the means to sustain performance over time when environmental conditions change. This paper incorporates strategic management and organization theoretical rationales in a model that combines elements of integration and experimentation in the strategy making process and thereby extends the evolving literature on the ambidextrous organization. The performance relationships of the ambidextrous integrative strategy making model are investigated on the basis of a cross-sectional sample of 185 business entities operating in different manufacturing industries. Results of structural equation analyses indicate that superior performance in the ambidextrous organizations is associated with efficiencies derived from adherence to centralized strategic planning and effectiveness generated by decentralized innovative behavior through participation and autonomous actions. The study enhances our understanding of ambidexterity as the result of combined strategy making processes that balance the needs for economic efficiency and organizational adaptability.

Resume: We outline commonalities between studies of subsidiary decentralization and autonomous strategy-making in the international business and strategic management fields. This suggests that corporate headquarters should engage in strategy-making processes that provide a combination of formal direction for global efficiencies and autonomy for effective local responses. Strategic guidance from headquarters frames subsidiary decisions in line with corporate priorities and distributed decision power coupled with informal exchange of information facilitates strategic responses in tune with local market requirements. We identify some important nuances in the integration-responsiveness conundrum supported by an empirical study of 351 multinational subsidiaries. We discuss the implications for multinational strategy practice and suggest future research venues to investigate strategy-making in multinational firms.

Resume: We explore the impact of stock pay and stock holdings on the pay to performance sensitivity in Denmark. Our research is motivated by the fact that most non-UK/US studies ignore stock based pay and stock holdings when measuring the pay to performance sensitivity. Further, most studies that explore the pay to performance relation apply the Black and Scholes approach assuming that the executive is both risk neutral due to hedge possibilities and well diversified. However, as pointed by Hall and Murphy (2002) executives are neither risk neutral nor well diversified. We adopt the certainty equivalence approach developed by Lambert et al (1991) to demonstrate that in a setting where executives are risk averse and undiversified there is a gap between the cost of granting stock options and the value, which executives receive from the same stock option program. Our findings indicate that the Danish level of pay is lower than in the UK and the US but more in line with the pay in other Scandinavian countries. Further, our results show that stock options are less frequently used to compensate Danish executives. On the other hand, stock ownership seems to be a more popular way to align the interests of the management and the shareholders than stock options. Furthermore, including stock holdings affect our four pay to performance sensitivity measures significantly. We also demonstrate that the pay to performance sensitivity is considerably lower than indicated by the Black and Scholes approach. Finally, the pay to performance sensitivity is on average smaller in Denmark than in the US. However, the pay to performance sensitivity seems similar in Denmark and the UK.

Resume: This article examines the effect of variation - in the geographical operations - of international business operations on experiential knowledge development in the internationalization of the firm. Based on learning theory, this article develops five hypotheses on the effects of variation on three interrelated components of international experiential knowledge: internationalization knowledge, business knowledge and institutional knowledge. The LISREL analysis indicates that variation has a positive effect on the accumulation of experiential knowledge in internationalizing firms. In particular, it demonstrates that internationalization knowledge is a key variable which mediates the effect of variation on the other two knowledge variables.

The International IPSERA Workshop on Customer Attractiveness, Supplier Satisfaction and Customer Value. 25-26 November 2010Ellegaard, Chris; Freytag, Per V. (Frederiksberg, 2010)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: Reports on supply chain management (SCM) failure are becoming more frequent in the SCM literature, despite widespread recognition of the business potential associated with such optimizations of operational buyer-supplier interfaces. Some failures can be ascribed to imbalances in the net benefits realized by the buying and supplying company implementing SCM. Failed SCM initiatives hurt the buying company’s customer attractiveness and limit opportunities for long term value creation with suppliers. Hence, an important task for the buying company is the management of SCM initiatives in a way that benefits both parties. However, SCM costs and benefits often materialise as the result of complex interactive processes between buyer and supplier actors, which makes SCM a challenging management task. To increase the understanding of these complex processes, this study identifies the various types of supplier costs and benefits resulting from the failed VMI initiative of a multinational company. While the benefits from this case turn out to be few, the costs appear in large variety and scale. More importantly, we uncover the underlying mechanisms generating these costs, thereby enabling managers to identify and avoid the costs. Based on the findings, we propose pre-project classification of supplier VMI readiness to allow more beneficial implementation as a key managerial implication.

Resume: I perioden januar-august 2011 har CEBR udført en analyseopgave for Landsforeningen BEDRE PSYKIATRI. Formålet med projektet har været at undersøge det samfundsøkonomiske potentiale for forøget inddragelse af pårørende i behandlingen af personer med psykisk sygdom i Danmark. Specifikt har det været formålet at gennemføre en cost-benefit beregning af familieintervention og inddragelse af pårørende på baggrund af de faktiske livsforløb for patienter med psykisk sygdom i Danmark og de resultater af effekter af familieintervention og pårørendeinddragelse, der kan findes i faglitteraturen. Undervejs har en række personer givet værdifulde kommentarer til projektet, og forfatteren vil gerne takke alle herfor. Særlig tak skal rettes til Martin Junge fra CEBR, professor Søren Bo Nielsen, CBS, samt Thorstein Theilgaard og Jens Peter Dam Eckardt Jensen fra BEDRE PSYKIATRI.

Dansk dagligvarehandel 2003-2013Østergaard Jacobsen, Per; Bjerre, Mogens (Frederiksberg, 2015)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: Detailhandlen er i gang med en lang og hård forandringsfase med strukturudvikling og forbruger-forandringer. Det har ført til lukninger og åbninger af mange butikker og butikskoncepterne er under forandring. De eksisterende koncepter udfordres mere og mere. Detailhandlerne oplever, at der er knaphed på kunder og at finanskrisen har givet større fokus på likviditet som kan opleves som knaphed på kapital. Det er en stadig større kamp om forbrugernes rådighedsbeløb. Dette har også medført til en mere kortsigtet adfærd for en lang række kæder – hvilket fremgår af stadigt hyppigere og stadigt mere omfattende prisnedsættelser som fx ”momsfri uge”, ”nu 20 % på alt i butikken” m.fl. Samtidig oplever forbrugerne højere priser på dagligvarer i Danmark end i andre lande1. De danske dagligvarepriser er da også blandt de højeste i EU, men overgås dog af Norge og Schweiz. Priserne i Danmark ligger ca. 40% højere end i 27 sammenlignelige EU lande (EU27). URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/9124 Filer i denne post: 1

Turisme (besöksnäring) og kultur i Øresundsregionen ved bygning af en Øresundsmetro i perspektiv af regionaliseringenLyck, lise (København, 2013)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: I juli 2000 blev Øresundsbroen åbnet. Fra 2000 til 2013 vurderes Øresundsbroen at have skabt et overskud på DKK 57 mia. (beregnet af Øresundskomiteen jf. Øresundsbron, marts 2013). Broens kapacitetsgrænse forventes at være nået mellem 2030 og 2035. Det indebærer, at der derfor er kommet øget fokus på, hvordan kapaciteten kan forøges. Der har længe været tanker om en forbindelse mellem Helsingør og Helsingborg, men i de senere år har idéen om en Øresundsmetro mellem København og Malmö vundet frem. Der er derfor initieret en række projekter på initiativ af Københavns Kommune og Malmö stad med økonomisk støtte fra EU til belysning af de tekniske og samfundsøkonomiske konsekvenser af en Øresundsmetro. Afgørende for diskussionen af en Øresundsmetro som en rentabel investering er sammenhængen til Øresundsregionalisering, hvilket allerede blev understreget i Uffe Palludan’s visionsrapport fra 2012. Nærværende publikation skal ses i denne sammenhæng. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8873 Filer i denne post: 1

Casestudie af tilbudsaviser i detailhandlenØstergaard Jacobsen, Per; Varnes, Claus (Frederiksberg, 2012)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: Vores fokus med denne analyse har været at beskrive virkningsgraden af markedsføringsindsatsen i detailhandlen, primært tilbudsaviserne, ved at se på konverteringerne fra kendskab til køb. Institut for Produktion og Erhvervøkonomi (PEØ) har siden 2005 gennemført konferrencer og analyser om virkningsgrader og effekt af marketing. Da vi simultant har konstateret en nærmest eksplosiv vækst i marketingindsatsen, er vores interesse for en nærmere undersøgelse blever skærpet. Dette er interessent i relation til netop effekt og virkningsgrader, da netop dagligvarehandlen udgør ca. 15 % af privatforbruget og dermed fylder meget i vores hverdag. Der er i de seneste år gennemført en lang række analyser og undersøgelser, der enten taler for eller imod anvendelse af tilbudsaviser. Senest har regeringen indført en ny afgift på tilbudsaviser, der træder i kraft i 2013, og i regeringsgrundlaget står der, at man ønsker at indføre en ”Ja Tak” ordning til afløsning af den nuværende ”Nej Tak” ordning. Den grafiske branche har gennemføret en række analyser, forskellige reklame- og medie-bureauer har produceret en del analyser, distributørerne (Post Danmark og Forbruger Kontakt) har her i efteråret gennemført en fælles analyse. Konkurrence- og Forbrugerstyrelsen har ligeledes gennemføret en omfattende analyse om dagligvaremarkedet i sommeren 2011. Vi har ingen interesser eller politiske tilknytninger i relation til branchen eller dens organisationer. Vi ønsker udelukkende at forholde os til økonomisk relaterede observationer, effekten og sammenhængen mellem disse elementer. Altså virkningsgraden af reklamen. Vi vil med denne økonomiske analyse forsøge at forholde os til virkningsgraden af marketingindsatsen i detailhandlen gennem de seneste 5 år. Siden John Wanamaker i tidernes morgen udtalte; "I know half of my advertising is wasted. I just don’t know which half” har der været fokus på virkningsgraden af markedsføring. Særligt har der i de seneste år været et stigende ønske om at se på effekten af marketingindsatsen. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8424 Filer i denne post: 1

Resume: Denne analyse af folkeskolen anvender DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) som et redskab til at foretage ”realistisk benchmarking”, hvor der i for-hold til den enkelte folkeskole identificeres relevante forbilleder, der på den ene side ligner skolen meget, men på den anden side gør det bedre. Sammenligningen tager udgangspunkt i de karakterer eleverne opnår ved afgangseksamen i 9. klasse. KREVIs analyse af folkeskolens faglige kvalitet viste, at forskelle i skolernes faglige kvalitet spiller en signifikant rolle, når karakterforskellene skal forklares. Selvom forskelle i elevernes sociale baggrund og individuelle forskelle under alle omstændigheder er den mest væsentlige årsag til forskelle i karakterer. Der er således god grund til at sammenligne skoler med relevante forbilleder. Da der desuden er væsentlige forskelle i skolernes ressourceforbrug, giver det god mening at lave realistisk benchmarking på sammenhængene mellem faglighed og ressourceforbrug for at vurdere effektiviteten.

Resume: Trods vore meget forskellige faglige baggrunde som hhv. ingeniør og statsaut. revisor har vi begge løbende funderet over kontrolverdenens mangfoldighed i såvel det offentlige som det private regi. Vi har begge skrevet om det, Elkjær-Larsen (2002) og Goldschmidt (1993 og 1997) og ved et tilfælde fandt vi anledning til at definere et fælles projekt, som vi herefter har arbejdet med i et års tid. Vi har udvalgt syv områder, som vi kender bedst, og de har dannet et iterativt samspil med en opstillet kontrolmodel, som vi herefter har afprøvet og brugt på de syv forvaltningers kontrolstruktur.

Resume: Hovedformålet med denne rapport har været at foretage sammenligninger på to planer: For det første at sammenligne de økonomiske modeller ADAM og DREAM, og for det andet at sammenligne to mulige scenarier for danske økonomi. Hovedvægten er lagt på at undersøge, hvordan udviklingen i boligpriserne og de offentlige finanser varierer på tværs af de økonomiske forudsætninger og de økonomiske modeller. Vi arbejder i hovedtræk med tre forløb: Et reform- og genopretningsforløb, et laden-stå-til-forløb med negativ udvikling i udlandet og et grundforløb i de to modeller, som vi bruger til at sammenligne de øvrige forløb med.
