Zu Entstehung von Mobilitätsbenachteiligung und ihrer Vermeidung im Kontext ökologischer Nachhaltigkeit
(kassel university press, 2021)

The rational of minimum wages
(kassel university press, 2021-03)
Leaving labour markets to the market mechanism with flexible wages is the worst thing that can happen as the result would be a permanent destabilisation of the price level and an explosion of inequality—both of which adds to the instabilities of capitalism. Guarantee of minimum wages can play an important role to contain the destabilising potential of labour markets. They can add to the stability of price level development and help establish a type of wage dispersion preferred by society. Minimum wages do not lead ...

Organizing for Digital Innovation. Implications for Organizational Forms, Digital Transformation and Digital Innovation Units
(kassel university press, 2023)
This dissertation aims to explore appropriate ways of organizing for digital innovation. It builds on four studies to close knowledge gaps that have recently emerged.

Therefore, the dissertation systematically ...

Nach der Pandemie gilt es zu analysieren, was gut und bewahrenswert ist und was verändert werden muss – aus unterschiedlichsten Gründen. Zudem gilt es diese Phase, die 2020 mit Notmaßnahmen begann, als Chance zu begreifen, und das Momentum für mehr und gute digitale Lösungen zu nutzen. In Hessen (und darüber hinaus) gilt es nun zukunftsfähige Infrastrukturen für ...

Barriers of SMEs in Adopting Crowdsourcing and -working and Strategies to Overcome Them
(kassel university press, 2023)
Despite its undisputable benefits for firms, crowdsourcing and ‐working is currently rarely applied in small and medium sized enterprises (SME). Up to now extant literature provides only an incomplete picture of the barriers that hinder SMEs from adopting crowdsourcing and ‐working. Because of these incomplete insights on this phenomenon there is also a great deal of uncertainty on how to overcome these barriers. In the scope of an interview series with 15 SMEs we explore a range of different barriers. In a second ...
