Transforming Management Education: Insights from Social‐Ecological Systems and Social Innovation Research

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract It is clear that contemporary management education (ME) needs to be transformed to tackle complex social‐ecological crises effectively. However, the concept of transformation is often ill‐defined in the context of ME; while there is also a lack of understanding about what concrete transformation trajectories (also called scaling pathways) are ...

Building Performance Simulation and Characterisation of Adaptive Facades [PDF]

, 2018
The book “Performance Simulation and Characterisation of Adaptive Facades” responds to the need of providing a general framework, standardised and recognised methods and tools to evaluate the performance of adaptive facades in a quantitative way, by means of numerical and experimental methods, in different domains of interest.

Impacts of energy efficiency retrofitting measures on indoor PM concentrations across different income groups in England: a modelling study [PDF]

, 2015
As part of an effort to reduce carbon emissions in the UK, policies encouraging the energy-efficient retrofit of domestic properties are being implemented. Typical retrofits, including installation of insulation and double glazing can cause tightening of

Frame Overlapping in Moral Markets: The Case of an ‘Open, Free, and Neutral’ Telecommunications Network

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This study explores how social movement activists, engaged in constructing and expanding moral markets, sustain the integrity of their initial moral values, avoiding dilution or cooptation by conventional market practices. Through a qualitative case study of a telecommunications network, we show that activists can expand a moral market by a ...

When Great Powers Struggle: How Geopolitical Alignments of Small States Are Influenced by Their MNEs

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Comparing two distinct deglobalization periods, this study shows how Finnish multinational enterprises (MNEs) used corporate diplomatic activities (CDA) to influence Finland's alignment with a struggling great power. Drawing from hegemonic stability theory and new institutional economics, we argue that the power's collapsing global networks ...

Using KRF Structures As AnAdaptive Facade And Evaluation of Daylight Performance Based on Geometry:A Case Studyin Ankara

International Journal of Built Environment and Sustainability
Adaptive facades are widely used today because they are energy efficient and sustainable. It is expected that kinetic facades will become more common in the future and new geometries are constantly sought. Kinetic Reciprocal Frame (KRF)

ADAPTIVE FACADE AND PHASE CHANGE MATERIALS (PCMS)

, 2020
In the building industry, the building envelope can be crucial to reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions in the atmosphere, contributing – with adequate technical and technological solutions and energy-efficient materials – to a prospective energy saving that the European Union estimates at 32.5% by 2030.

Critical Management Studies: From One‐Dimensional Critique to Three‐Dimensional Scepticism

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract Critical Management Studies (CMS) has largely relied on one‐dimensional critique which focus on the negation of a dominant social order. This strong focus has made the field increasingly stale and preoccupied with standard objects for critique.

Narcissism Is Associated With Blunted Error‐Related Brain Activity

Journal of Personality, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Narcissism is associated with self‐enhancement and social antagonism, yet its neural underpinnings, particularly in error processing, remain underexplored. Competing theoretical models, such as the mask model and the metacognitive model, offer conflicting hypotheses regarding how narcissism influences early neural responses to errors.
