The Origins of the Harrods Empire

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2016 im Fachbereich BWL - Offline-Marketing und Online-Marketing, Note: 1, Johannes Kepler Universität Linz, Veranstaltung: E-Marketing, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Unumstritten ist das Amazon.com das bekannteste und auch das Größte und Bekannteste „Klick-Handelsunternehmen“ der Welt ist. Unter Fachleuten wird der speziell in Europa beliebteste Online-Händler für seine Innovationen hochgelobt. Die Umsätze, die das Unternehmen Jahr für Jahr erwirtschaftet, sind gigantisch. Allein im vierten Quartal 2010 konnte Amazon fast eine Milliarden US-Dollar umsetzen.Vor kurzer Zeit hat der Online-Händler Amazon.com seine Zahlen für das dritte Quartal 2010 vorgelegt. Es geht Aufwärts wie seit vielen Jahren schon. Im Berichtszeitraum erwirtschaftete das Unternehmen weltweit einen Umsatz von 7,5 Milliarden US-Dollar. Im Vergleich zum Vorjahr bedeutet dies einen Anstieg um satte 39 Prozent. Auch beim Gewinn legt Amazon kräftig zu. Unter dem Strich blieben 231 Millionen Dollar übrig (ca. 180 Millionen Euro, d.h. eine Steigerung um etwa 16 Prozent).Amazon.com ist jedenfalls völlig unumstritten das wohl beste Beispiel für eine erfolgreiche Umsetzung eines E-Tailing Business Modells. Der Online-Riese Amazon steht damit auch gleichzeitig für die erfolgreiche Entwicklung im und des World Wide Webs (www). Das E-Tailing Business Modell, wie durch den Fall von Amazon demonstriert wird, setzte seinen Aufwärtstrend trotz des weltweiten wirtschaftlichen Abschwungs weiter fort. Der Online Handel auf der ganzen Welt zeigte sich unbeeindruckt von der Finanzmarktkrise. Die Zahl der Online Shopper stieg seither weiter kontinuierlich an. 2010 kauften über 31 Milliarden Menschen im Internet ein.  Diese Zahlen die die Entwicklung des E-Commerce dokumentieren wurde in einer repräsentativen Verbraucherstudie gewonnen, die durch den Bundesverband des Deutschen Versandhandels bhv in Auftrag gegeben wurde. Neben Waren werden auch digitale Dienstleistungen über das Internet eingekauft. Die Ausgaben im Bereich der digitalen Services belaufen sich mittlerweile ebenfalls im Milliardenbereich. Der größte Teil, etwa 44 Prozent, fällt auf den Bereich Mobilität (Flugtickets, Bahntickets, Mietwagen). Rückläufig ist interessanterweise der Kauf von Computer-Software (es wird vermutet, dass das herunterladen von Computer-Software einen erheblichen Einfluss darauf hat).

During the last decades, freight transportation experienced a worldwide boom. At the same time, competition increased considerably, such that efficient cost structures are indispensable for any market player. One of the main challenges a transportation company faces is the efficient employment of its personnel in operations, commonly referred to as crew scheduling.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;In this book the author presents solution approaches to large-scale crew scheduling. Firstly, the implementation of state-of-the-art operations research methods for a setting at a major European freight railway carrier is presented. Secondly, the author discusses acceleration techniques that make the developed algorithms applicable even in short-term contexts. While the analysis is based on European freight railway settings, the gained insights also apply to other (crew) scheduling contexts.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Potential readership includes scholars and graduate students who are interested in the fields of crew scheduling and column generation as well as practitioners from transportation companies looking for new planning approaches.&lt;/div&gt;

Master's Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Leadership and Human Resource Management - Miscellaneous, grade: 60%, Cardiff Metropolitan University, language: English, abstract: The main aim of this dissertation project is to critically examine the chosen organization KFC and to study the effect of its leadership on the motivation of its employees. The research question is "How can management develop their leadership style to motivate staff members to achieving their organizational roles?"Attracting and retaining employees in the current business world has become a big challenge for the organizations. Due to increase in competitors and new entrants, it has become a tough task for the organizations. Globalization has also added a new dimension to the challenge. The workforce is now comprised of people from different countries and different cultures. As a result, keeping them motivated to give a high performance is a big task for the managers. There have been many research and theories of leadership and motivation. However, these are not still fully understood and the relationship between leadership and motivation still needs in depth research. Leaders need to find ways to motivate their subordinates by catering their individual needs and move away from the traditional methods.For the purpose of explaining the causal relationship between leadership and motivation, the researcher pursued an action research strategy and followed an inductive approach as the researcher had to work closely with the organization. Both quantitative and qualitative data was collected using an employee survey questionnaire and a focus group interview of the managers. The data analysis gave information about leadership and motivation of KFC. The managers stressed on having clear communication, independence and decision making for them. The staff stressed on communication, recognition, rewards, improved work condition and self satisfaction. The results revealed that KFC should look to employ some new strategies to increase the motivation of its staff. The researcher has made some recommendations at the end of the report. However, as this research was conducted in a small location, it may require further in depth research to come to an exclusive conclusion.

Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Trade and Distribution, grade: 2,3, University of Applied Sciences Essen, language: English, abstract: In 2020, e-commerce sales in Germany reached a volume of over 60 billion euros in business-to-consumer (B2C) business. Amazon - the US company - accounted for a significant share of this market. In fact, Amazon generated US $29.57 billion in sales in Germany and as much as US $386.06 billion globally.

The revenue figures confirm that Amazon has a leading position in online retail for a reason. Consumers' online understanding is influenced by the standards set by Amazon. This is because Amazon has clearly shown what is possible online, and therefore there will continue to be hardly any way around Amazon in online business.At the beginning of the paper, the most important terms are defined and explained, which should contribute to a better understanding of the topic. Thereupon, the origin, the development as well as the applicable conditions of Amazon are explained. This is followed by defining and explaining the measures that can be applied for successful trading on Amazon. Finally, the topic is rounded off with a conclusion and the research question is answered, based on the knowledge gained in the term paper.

Master's Thesis from the year 2019 in the subject Economics - Other, grade: GPA 4.0, City University London (School of Mathematics and Engineering), course: Air Transport Management, language: English, abstract: In the past 15 years, various ultra long-haul routes were operated by airlines from different regions across the globe. Between 2004 and 2013, the majority of ultra long-haul routes were axed mainly due to the increase in jet fuel prices. Despite negative developments in the past, current airlines still operate or intend to operate ultra long-haul routes while other airlines and various experts highly question the feasibility of cost-intensive services.Can ultra long-haul flights be profitable at all? Due to the lack of clear academic evidence, the author Linus Benjamin Bauer aims to enhance and update the current debate, whether ultra long-haul flights in general are either commercially viable or not. Key findings from Bauer’s comprehensive analysis and developed revenue-cost model conclude that due to the improvement of fuel-efficient long-range aircraft such as the Boeing 787 Dreamliner and Airbus A350, ultra long-haul operations nowadays may prove to be resilient. The cost advantages of such cost-intensive operations may be slight compared to one-stop services. However, ultra long-haul routes are likely to make up for it in market positioning by targeting premium customer segments with lower price sensitivity, one of the main drivers of the profitability of the 21st century airline business.

Palgrave Debates in Business History

This book argues that modern Western civilization is synonymous with business, and&amp;nbsp;you cannot have one without the other—or, at least, not for very long.&amp;nbsp;Without Western civilization,&amp;nbsp;with its emphasis on inquiry, questioning, experimentation, reasoning, freedom of expression, a free press, equality of opportunity before the law—then the innovation and vitality that lies at the heart of Western business success, evaporates. Without business endeavor, all the ideas and inquiry are materially meaningless.&lt;br&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The author postulates that only through business opportunity is the wealth created that allows a continuation of our society’s intellectual endeavors. Further, the world of modern business—a unique creation of Western civilization, even if it has witnessed many regional and national adaptations—is also the actual place where inequalities are overcome and opportunities created. It is through the world of business and work that women have, for example, achieved something approaching equality with men, to a degree unprecedented in human history. This book will offer scholars a research-based argument that Western civilization&amp;nbsp;owes its existence to business rather than&amp;nbsp;Greco-Roman antiquity.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

This book explores the various economic and institutional factors that explain why huge investments are made in unworthy transportation mega-projects in the US and other countries. It is based on research, the general literature, economic analyses, and results from a specifically collected database showing that a significant proportion of implemented mega-projects have been found to be inferior &lt;i&gt;ex-ante &lt;/i&gt;or incapable of delivering the returns they promised &lt;i&gt;ex-post&lt;/i&gt;. Transportation infrastructure and other public investments of a similar scope (“mega-projects”) reflect public sector priorities and objectives, non-pecuniary as well as financial constraints, and a range of decision-making processes. This book describes how decisions made in the public sector with respect to transportation infrastructure investments are affected by the large populations and territories they serve, the estimation of the substantial opportunity costs they entail, the formal procedures instituted for quantitatively appraising projected outcomes and monetary returns, and the political environment in which these decisions are made.
