基于信息传递的组织结构模块化方法研究

为建立模块化组织结构,提高组织工作效率,以新产品设计组织为例,基于设计结构矩阵,从组织成员之间信息传递的角度,构建了团队之间相似度计算模型;然后,介绍了谱聚类方法,并以团队之间相似性矩阵为基础对组织DSM进行聚类,得到优化后的模块化组织DSM。最后,通过案例分析,验证本文提出模型的有效性。     

汉语游学课堂设计探析

随着游学理念的不断深入,许多国家和地区都加入到汉语游学的队伍中来。但从目前学生的反映来看,游学的效果并不理想,为了达到学生的游学要求,可以开展深入细致的游学教育,根据外国人的行为习得,力求将每次课的效果发挥到最大值。     

Advancing purchasing as a design science: Publication guidelines to shift towards more relevant purchasing research

Due to rapidly changing business environments, purchasing and supply management (PSM) organisations are constantly confronted with new problems impacting organisational performance. PSM research can address these problems through design science research. Design science is also regarded as the science of the artificial. Design science research is a methodology that aims to systematically generate knowledge for the design, synthesis, testing, and evaluation of human-made artefacts (e.g., tools, interventions, policies) that solve practical problems. PSM artefacts such as the purchasing portfolio matrix invented by Kraljic (1983) represent a valuable opportunity to solve problems in the PSM discipline. However, our artificial-intelligence (AI)-based analysis of the discipline's flagship journal, the Journal of Purchasing and Supply Management (JPSM), indicates that design-oriented publications in PSM are underrepresented, accounting for less than 4% of the total publications. We argue that existing PSM research should be complemented with more design-oriented research, and address the following research question: How can PSM scholars publish more design-oriented research? Our objectives are to (1) provide arguments for advancing PSM as a design science, (2) nurture a better understanding of design science research as a methodology, and (3) propose publication guidelines that enable researchers to present design-oriented research in a management journal.

Can't touch this? Conceptualizing the customer touchpoint in the context of omni-channel retailing

Due to the rise of omni-channel management, the customer touchpoint concept has become more important. However, research lacks a common understanding of this concept. This article addresses this research gap by conceptualizing the customer touchpoint following the design science research paradigm. As a result, an overview of the constructs and their respective properties, as well as their possible manifestations that collectively define the customer touchpoint, is provided. The conceptualization has implications for researchers and practitioners alike as it comes as a tool to design and evaluate touchpoints in the field as well as to provide fertile soil for future research.
