Green Luxury: New Divide in Positioning Strategies Needed?
(National University of Political Studies and Public Administration (SNSPA), Faculty of ManagementTritonic, 2017)
A basic and commonly shared implicit definition of luxury is “something superfluous.” Consuming such products and services contradicts the modern paradigm of sustainable consumption. However, luxury vendors are frequently introducing new technologies and better working conditions on a large scale, including natural colors and fair treatment of labor in the fashion industry, as well as fully electric-fueled cars, which Tesla has been producing. Previous research suggests that luxury and sustainability are incompatible. ...

Outsmarting the MNCs by fitting strategic manoeuvres to national framing: evidence from India
(National University of Political Studies and Public Administration (SNSPA), Faculty of ManagementTritonic, 2017)
This paper focuses on how Indian home-grown companies captured MNCs market in India with the help of strategic maneuvering and understanding their own capabilities. Seizing the framework of Porter’s National Diamond this research follows a caselet approach for illustrating these strategies. The study’s originality springs from understanding changes in demand pattern brought by home-grown companies in the Indian market. A key implication of this paper is that the demand conditions and firm strategy (by means of targeting ...

Same Same But Different? A Two-Foci Perspective on Trust in Information Systems
(ScholarSpace, 2020-01-07)
Trust is one of the most important factors driving the adoption and use of information systems. The goal of this paper is to provide a first evaluation of a conceptual piece claiming a) that users distinguish between their trust in an IS and the provider of this IS and b) that both kinds of trust are important for the success sustainable success of IS providers. To evaluate the claims, a research model is developed and evaluated using data of 234 students during the introduction of a new IS at an European university. ...

Linking entrepreneurial orientation to firm performance in a post-socialist market context: the case of Hungary
(National University of Political Studies and Public Administration (SNSPA), Faculty of ManagementTritonic, 2016)
Entrepreneurial orientation provoked the interest of numerous scholars as well as political and administrative decision-makers. Both start-ups and already established corporate entities are increasingly persecuting new opportunities, products, and business models in order to establish superiority above their competitive environment. The tendencies evince an optimist impact of entrepreneurial orientation on business performance, namely on financial performance. Beyond the aforementioned relationship, there are impulses ...

Ergebnisse und Redundanz in der Diskussion um eWOM: Eine kritische Literaturauswertung
(Universität Paderborn, 2014)
Electronic Word-Of-Mouth (eWOM) und Online Rezensionen (OR) werden als einer der Schlüsselfaktoren für erfolgreichen E-Commerce identifiziert. Jedoch sind die beeinflussenden Motivationsfaktoren für das Verfassen sowie das Lesen von OR bis heute gesamtheitlich nur unzureichend untersucht. Die vorliegende Literaturauswertung sammelt die bisherigen Forschungsergebnisse mit dem Ansatz, ein möglichst breites Bild der Motive für eWOM-Aktivitäten zu geben. Das Ergebnis der extensiven Literaturanalyse zeigt, dass für ...

Post-crises response strategies: a combined model to manage brand crises
(National University of Political Studies and Public Administration (SNSPA), Faculty of ManagementTritonic, 2017)
Brand crises negatively affect customers’ perception of the brand’s ability to deliver expected functional or symbolic benefits. Post-crisis response strategies should be implemented to restore brand trust and diminish the effect of reputational threat, since these strategies act as critical determinants of the actual impact of the crisis on consumers’ evaluations and consequently on repurchase intentions. A categorization of the nature of the crisis, distinguishing between ‘performance-related’ and ‘values-related’ ...

A Conversational Agent to Improve Response Quality in Course Evaluations
(Association for Computing Machinery, 2020)
Recent advances in Natural Language Processing (NLP) bear the opportunity to design new forms of human-computer interaction with conversational interfaces. We hypothesize that these interfaces can interactively engage students to increase response quality of course evaluations in education compared to the common standard of web surveys. Past research indicates that web surveys come with disadvantages, such as poor response quality caused by inattention, survey fatigue or satisficing behavior. To test if conversational ...

How digitalization changes the internationalization of entrepreneurial firms: theoretical considerations and empirical evidence
(National University of Political Studies and Public Administration (SNSPA), Faculty of ManagementTritonic, 2017)
The internationalization of firms is predominantly analyzed and explained considering observations from a pre-digital business environment. Thus, the applicability to digital ways of doing business needs to be challenged. Recent literature on the internationalization of digital firms attempts to adapt existing international business literature to the digital market. However, these studies consider internet-based companies predominantly as a homogeneous group. It is a popular opinion, that digital internationalization ...

The acceptance of mobile payments in the German retail market
(National University of Political Studies and Public Administration (SNSPA), Faculty of ManagementTritonic, 2016)
The acceptance of mobile payments is one of the research challenges of high strategic relevance in retailing. Most of the previous studies of mobile payment field focus on consumers’ opinions, expectations and concerns to assess their acceptance of mobile payment systems. The financial transactions’ complementing party – the merchants – who also needed to accept and, therefore, to implement mobile payment technologies is considered in this study. The purpose of this study is to enhance an existing research framework, ...

Unleashing the Potential of Conversational Agents for Course Evaluations: Empirical Insights from a Comparison with Web Surveys
(Association for Information Systems, 2020)
Recent advances in Natural Language Processing (NLP) bear the opportunity to design new forms of human-computer interaction with conversational interfaces. However, little is known about how these interfaces change the way users respond in online course evaluations. We aim to explore the effects of conversational agents (CAs) on the response quality of online course evaluations in education compared to the common standard of web surveys. Past research indicates that web surveys come with disadvantages, such as poor ...
