Introduction
In developing environments (i.e. countries) the diffusion – aka
adoption – of innovations takes always longer. This is for the reason that ’ignorance is the worst judge’ – as my partner loves to say. When people are not that highly educated or developed
in critical and objective thinking , they find hard to take in new
information.
The goal of the diffusion model is basically to represent the level of
adoption of an innovation in time.
Diffusion
of Innovations Theory – the basics
The
DOI theory has been generated or analysed for already more than 100 years . It was made known by Everett M. Rogers in 1960s . According
to Rogers (1983, p. 6), ‘Diffusion
is a
kind
of social change , defined
as the process by
which
alteration occurs in the structure and function of a social system.
The elements of the diffusion:
Preparing for exam. Focus areas Defining innovation ● “An innovation is an idea, practice, or object that is perceived as new by an individual or other unit of adoption.” (Rogers 1952) ● CIS survey: “Product innovations must be new to your enterprise, but they do not need to be new to your market”. ● “Companies achieve competitive advantage through acts of innovation. They approach innovation in its broadest sense, including both new technologies and new ways of doing things” – (Porter 1990) ● “An innovative business is one which lives and breathes “outside the box”. It is not just good ideas, it is a combination of good ideas, motivated staff and an instinctive understanding of what your customer wants” – (Branson 1998) ● “...novel implementation of an invention, discovery, new or existing knowledge in economic process” (Joseph A
study the brain was case study. Often case studies provide researchers with a situation that they could never ethically reproduce in a laboratory. One of the most famous case studies of how brain damage can affect behavior is the study of Phineas Gage by Dr John Harlow. Gage was in a serious accident, where a metal pole pierced his skull and brain. Luckily he survived, losing vision in his left eye. He had no difficulty with speech or language, but the balance between his intellectual abilities and emotional control had been destroyed. He became highly agitated and irrelevant, often impatient and rude. Study to his frontal lobe provided evidence that the brain affects personality and social behaviors. Discuss ethical considerations related to research studies at the biological level of analysis. In case studies for example, the researcher often obtains deeply personal information, which is not usually shared with other people
with you, it's more likely that you will never see that money again. Secondly, it's much easier to pay bay card, you do not have to handle money and coins to find the right amount of money On the other hand, if only paying by card, then if something happens to the terminals then you can not buy anything In conclusion, although it's much safer and easyer in a cashless world, it's not bulletproof and if something happens to the system, you can not pay for anything What can cause damage to a brand? A brand is a name/term/symbol or any other feature that helps to identify sellers goods or services and there are many things that can cause damage to that. First of all, the first thing that can cause damage to a brand is price promotions. Price promotions are discounts and promotions which can cheapen the brands image. Secondly, brand stretching can cause big damage on brands. It's using a successful brands name to sell other types of products. Thirdly, taking a brand downmarket
7. finished goods - are goods(products) that have completed manufacturing process and are ready to be sold and used by the end user 8. consumer goods - goods which are produced to satisfy consumer current needs and are bought for individual use 9. consumer durables - long time lasting products, such as home appliances, cars and so on 10. fast moving consumer goods - everyday need products that are sold quickly and in large quantities, food and toiletries for example 11. brand name - word(s) that identify product and it's company so consumer can easily recognize and notice it. 12. brand awareness - is the extent to which a brand or product can be recognized by consumer 13. brand image - all the ideas and beliefs held about a particular brand 14. brand manager - ensures successful promotion and the quality of products 15. brand identity - it is how a company seeks to identify itself, is the proposal that a company makes to consumers. 16
century has been the New Public Management (NPM). It is of particular interest in the post-autistic economics (pae) context because NPM largely rests on the same ideology and epistemology as standard textbook economics (STE) is based (for my take on this, see Drechsler 2000), and it has had, and still has, similar results. Already more on the defensive within public administration (PA) than STE is within economics, NPM also shows that such major paradigm shifts in theory and policy may actually happen. In addition, it occasionally appears that pae-oriented scholars have overlooked the fact that some features in public management reform, state organization, and the economic interpretation of state functions that they advocate from "Good Governance" to "efficiency" as a goal in itself actually belong into the "other camp" and by and large have a disastrous effect on "industrial" and
The sec- ond important thing to understand is that we, too, have our preprogrammed tapes; and, although they usually work to our advantage, the trigger features that activate them can dupe us into playing the tapes at the wrong times. ' This parallel form of human automaticity is aptly demonstrated in an experi- ment by social psychologist Ellen Langer and her co-workers (Langer, Blank, ~ lAlthough several important similarities exist between this kind of automaticity in humans and lower animals, there are some important differences as well. The automatic behavior patterns of humans tend to be learned rather than inborn, more flexible than the lock-step patterns of the lower animals, and responsive to a larger number of triggers. • • • • Chapter 1 WEAPONS OF INFLUENCE Chanowitz, 1978). A well-known principle of human behavior says that when we ask
A supply chain is a network of facilities and distribution options that performs the functions of procurement of materials, transformation of these materials into intermediate and finished products, and the distribution of these finished products to customers. Supply chains exist in both service and manufacturing organizations, although the complexity of the chain may vary greatly from industry to industry and firm to firm. Supply chain management is typically viewed to lie between fully vertically integrated firms, where the entire material flow is owned by a single firm and those where each channel member operates independently. Therefore coordination between the various players in the chain is key in its effective management. Cooper and Ellram [1993] compare supply chain management to a well-balanced and well-practiced relay team. Such a team is more competitive when each player knows how to be positioned for the hand-off.
Adults cry "educate our children!" Everyone has opinions about the best way to do the job. It is of urgent importance, and all the numerous factors are much studied, debated, and new (or old) ideas continually tested or retested. Some people say "it's as simple as . . . " and then name their pet peeve or passion. My view is not of an education specialist, but of one who loves sharing what I learn, and owes much to educators. Since I don't have an educational theory neatly worked-out, nor an outline of my perceptions, my intent is to address each educational ingredient that comes to my mind. After I've said what I think about each topic, readers may have a fair comprehension of my philosophy. First comes sensitivity. If a person be insensitive, be it from numbing cold, exhaustion, drugs, genetic makeup, or upbringing, then the process of education is bogged down, and results come only after great efforts
