Change and the impact on role - a role analysis of three senior executives of a major public sector organisation
Creators: name: Kimberley, Nell
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The aim of this paper is to provide readers with a "snapshot" view of the internal model of role of senior manager as change agent. Three members of the Senior Executive Service of a major Australian public sector organisation participated in the three month qualitative study which used an Organisational Role Analysis framework to elicit the individuals' perceptual models of the organisation and their own behaviour in the context of major structural and cultural change. The question to be addressed was "How do senior managers handle their primary and change agent roles in the turbulent 1990s"? The answer in a nutshell is - with considerable difficulty. The implications for private and public sector organisations are worthy of consideration.

Even we are sheeps': cultural displacement in management education
Creators: name: Selsky, John W.
Publisher: name: Monash University

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: An increasing number of university lecturers and students are engaged in classroom activity in national-cultural contexts which are "foreign." The foreign context confronts these culturally-displaced people with distinctive yet unfamiliar cultural practices and norms related to management education. These contexts are fraught with misunderstandings and with unintended consequences, both comic and tragic, as both the indigenous and the culturally displaced people struggle to make sense of their shared experiences. I recount a novel classroom experience which emerged while I, an American university lecturer, was on sabbatical in Turkey. After test cheating was recognised as an important issue for both students and myself, the rules about cheating were re-negotiated. This enabled the students to take a "collective midterm" test, which proved to be a peak experience for many of them - and for myself. The experience is framed as a critical incident in a wider case of cultural displacement. The case is used as a lever to raise and reflect on a number of issues in cross-cultural management education that can be expected to become more salient in the future. These include the social construction of cheating; power and control dynamics in university classrooms; and the management of cultural displacement. Thus the case may be usefully interpreted not merely as a technical problem of the control of cheating, or even as an adaptation problem of culturally displaced lecturers and students, but also as a systems problem concerning the effective design of learning contexts.

description: Data charting process will be conducted by one researcher and reviewed by dissertation committee. An online evidence synthesis software (e.g., Covidence) will be used as a literature synthesis tool. Data for eligible studies will be charted using abstraction methods and with openness to iteration due to lack of formal literature on topic. Beyond inclusion/exclusion criteria and article characteristics, abstracted data will include but not limited to: type of collaboration, purpose of collaboration, description of digital health project/product, phase of digital health project/product, phase of project/product, description of relationship dynamics (if any), description of process/operational dynamics (if any), description of outcomes measures/success metrics (if any), funding, and mention of policy. Due to inclusion of both qualitative and quantitative methods, interpretation will be required. Synthesis of results includes an aggregated overview of AIC in digital health. Similar to a thematic analysis, the range of evidence will be grouped based on study characteristics and then analyzed based on extracted data to map the body of evidence into larger themes. “Range of evidence” is terminology required by PRISMA-Scr, its defined as a descriptive snapshot of the breadth of evidence in the scope of the search.
The Dash for Cash: Performance Related Pay - an Australian Union Perspective

Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Performance appraisal and its frequent link to performance related pay is a controversial practice in the management of employee performance. This paper examines performance appraisal from the perspective of four Australian unions covering diverse occupations and industry sectors. Only one union supports the notion of performance related pay. The others find performance appraisal difficult to embrace. Negative experiences and consequent problems lead them to argue that the process is complicated and usually puts workers at a disadvantage. It appears that any change in union attitude depends on their role in the performance appraisal and performance related pay process. Moreover, the imperfect power balance between management and employees means that union participation must be on a genuine basis.

Unprotective Tarriffs, Ineffective Liberalization and Other Mysteries: An Investigation of the Endogenous Dimensions of Trade Policy Formation in Australia
Creators: name: Tombazos, Christis G.
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: At the forefront of empirical research on Australia's trade policies two items seem to have attracted considerable interest: (i) the host of determinants of the highly dispersed tariff concessions, and (ii) the impact of liberalization on imports. Studies that investigate the former, in the context of endogenous trade policy formation, examine the impact of import penetration on tariffs, and studies that investigate the latter consider the effect of tariffs on import penetration. Despite the obvious simultaneity of these variables, research lines (i) and (ii) followed separate paths by only considering uni-directional causal relationships. And yet, these paths do converge. The meeting point: perplexing results! Tariffs are found to protect those industries that have the least use for protection, and liberalization is often determined to be entirely ineffectual in stimulating imports. In this paper we argue that the source of these puzzling results is found in the misspecification of the employed frameworks of analysis that ignore relevant feedback effects. This is illustrated using a model that facilitates the simultaneous determination of import penetration and tariffs. The results are startling. When the bidirectional causal relationship between the two variables is "disentangled" the estimated impact of import penetration on the tariff level increases by a fivefold, and that of tariffs on import penetration doubles.

description: Paper not available. Full text of working paper suppressed by author. We show how cubic smoothing splines fitted to univariate time series data can be used to obtain local linear forecasts. Our approach is based on a stochastic state space model which allows the use of a likelihood approach for estimating the smoothing parameter, and which enables easy construction of prediction intervals. We show that our model is a special case of an ARIMA(0,2,2) model and we provide a simple upper bound for the smoothing parameter to ensure an invertible model. We also show that the spline model is not a special case of Holt's local linear trend method. Finally we compare the spline forecasts with Holt's forecasts and those obtained from the full ARIMA(0,2,2) model, showing that the restricted parameter space does not impair forecast performance.

description: This report was prepared to contribute to the 'Health Australia Initiative' on the issue of prioritisation and financing for health promotion. Research presented here is focused on the two tasks of: (i) proposing preferred approach(es) to priority setting; and (ii) funding mechanisms which would support the preferred health promotion activity. The criteria adopted in assessing these issues were: (i) the need for technical and allocative efficiency; (ii) equity between different population groups; (iii) 'dynamic efficiency', that is, a framework which encourages experimentation and progressive improvement; (iv) 'sustainability', that is, a funding mechanism which, while encouraging allocative efficiency, ensures continuity of funding for health promotion activities; and (v) 'manageability', that is, for reasons of financial management, expenditures should, at least in the short run, be containable. With respect to the first task of the report, the principle conclusion is that priority setting should be 'evidence based'. There is no possibility of achieving social objectives unless the relationship between program activities, objectives and outcomes is understood to the point where informed judgements are possible. In this respect the logic of the economic approach to decision making for the achievement of technical and allocative efficiency is compelling and it is the approach recommended. The economic approach is based on the logical principle that health outcomes will be maximised for a given health budget if the marginal benefit cost ratio is equalised across programs or projects. This requires resources to move to activities which generate greater benefits for those yielding lower levels of benefit. Two applications of the 'economic model' are advocated; viz Program Budgeting and Marginal Analysis (where the time frame for decision making is limited) and the 'Disease Based Framework', (where there is greater capacity for long term research and planning and a focus on resource allocation between disease stages and health delivery settings).

The individuals in Mao's collective kingdom: a study of motivational needs of PRC state-enterprise employees

description: The purpose of this study was to understand the motivational needs of PRC (People's Republic of China) state-owned enterprise employees by utilising Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory as a framework. The focus of the research was to develop an explanation for the motivational needs of the PRC state employees. A qualitative inquiry was developed in three stages of group interview, seven semi-structured interviews and observation as preliminary study, main data collection and supplementary data collection method respectively. Data analysis methods consisted of the traditional method of examining the interview files manually and by using the computer program Ethnograph v.5. The research investigated the content in each category of Maslow's hierarchy of needs in the PRC context. It found that physiological needs consist of housing and medical subsidies. Safety needs consist of staying employed in the state-owned enterprise though the research also found that some of the managers indicated that this category of need may not be important. There is a significant focus on the belonging needs category, especially on the PRC state employees' relationships with their managers. Self-esteem needs include respect and recognition for these PRC state employees and that motivators in this category include bonuses, travel and promotion. Lastly, the study indicates that self-actualisation may be an abstract ideal for these employees. Interestingly, self-actualisation also includes a comparison of the employees among themselves to gauge their own abilities and achievements. The research proposed that the motivational needs in this study depict an emerging sense of individualism from these PRC state employees. This is attributed to economic and social changes taking place when the research was conducted. The emergence of individualism is particularly apparent in higher-level needs of belonging, safety, self-esteem and self-actualisation. In addition, extrinsic forms of reward in the form of bonuses, travel and housing subsidies are more prevalent than intrinsic forms of moral encouragement, and they tend to motivate the employees individually. These factors strengthen the argument that individualism is emerging as a part of the motivational needs of the PRC state employees.

description: Precisely deciphering the molecular mechanisms of age-related memory loss is crucial to create appropriate therapeutic interventions. We have previously shown that the histone-binding protein RbAp48/Rbbp4 is a molecular determinant of Age-Related Memory Loss. By exploring how this protein regulates the genomic landscape of the hippocampal circuit, we find that RbAp48 controls the expression of BDNF and GPR158 proteins, both critical components of osteocalcin (OCN) signaling in the mouse hippocampus. We show that inhibition of RbAp48 in the hippocampal formation inhibits OCN’s beneficial functions in cognition and causes deficits in discrimination memory. In turn, disruption of OCN/GPR158 signaling leads to the downregulation of RbAp48 protein, mimicking the discrimination memory deficits observed in the aged hippocampus. We also show that activation of the OCN/GPR158 pathway increases the expression of RbAp48 in the aged dentate gyrus and rescues age-related memory loss.

description: The effective management of the supply chain has been identified as of significant importance to achieving and sustaining a competitive advantage for firms in the Australian textiles, clothing and footwear industry (TCF). The Australian Government introduced a program targeted at enhancing the competitiveness of TCF industry through effective supply chain management (SCM). The program was specifically created for small to medium sized companies and implemented in 50 companies in Victoria over the period 1996-2000. The paper presents the findings from the first phase of a research project aiming at evaluating the performance of companies involved in the government-funded SCM program. The first phase involved interviews with managers from selected enterprises whilst the second phase will involve a questionnaire survey. Interviews were conducted with managers directly involved with SCM initiative, including Managing Directors, Operations and Purchasing Managers and Finance Managers. In-depth examination of the performance changes points to firms that are developing new relationships with their suppliers and customers with the support of e-commerce technology. However, results also point out that some firms had not been integrated in SCM program effectively and failed to achieve a competitive advantage.

description: A recent examination of the management histories of a select number of rock art sites in the Grampians-Gariwerd National Park in southwest Victoria, Australia, has found that management decisions, research and site interventions were often taking place in ignorance of what had gone before. Heritage site management is often conducted in an ad hoc manner with limited understanding of past planning and management. A framework for understanding the management history of indigenous rock art sites is presented. With some modification the framework could be applied to other indigenous cultural sites.
Cost-Effectiveness/Utility Analysis of Two Drug Regimens in the Treatment of Depression

description: This paper compares the cost-effectiveness/utility of drug regimens based on fluoxetine and moclobemide in the treatment of depression in Finland. The outcome data are based on a 6 week double-blind RCT (n=209) and the cost data on a cost study linked to the RCT (n=141). Quality of life changes were measured by 15D. Five different outcome measures were used. Moclobemide showed consistently a better outcome in all outcome measures, but the differences did not generally reach the conventional limit of statistical significance (5%). The difference in the average time-weighted quality-of-life gain on a 0-1 scale was 0.02 (p=0.08). The direct costs were on average lower in the moclobemide regimen, but the difference was not significant (p=0.14), whereas the average total costs (direct and indirect) were almost the same in both regimens. These results suggest that in terms of incremental cost-effectiveness/utility the moclobemide regimen would dominate (produce a better marginal outcome at a equal or less cost), but this conclusion is surrounded by a slightly higher degree of uncertainty than what is conventionally applied. A larger study is needed to give more precision especially to the cost estimates.
Inflation, Financial Development and Growth in Transition Countries

description: The paper presents panel data evidence for 13 transition countries on inflation, financial development and growth. It contributes to the growth literature by showing that the transition countries conform to developed country evidence in particular with the strong negative effect of inflation on growth. It also contributes more evidence to the debate on the role of financial development. Once inflation and the investment rate are included in the model, a key measure of financial development no longer has a positive effect on growth, as some recent literature has found.

The Economic Development of the Australian Football League
Creators: name: Booth, Ross
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This paper begins with a brief review of the evolution of the unique brand of Australian football and the development of a fully-professional and national Australian Football League (AFL) comprising 16 clubs from the Victorian Football League (VFL) formed in 1897. Analysis of clubs' finances and stated objectives suggest that AFL clubs are win-maximisers (subject to breaking even financially) rather than profit maximisers. The win-maximising objective stems from the nature of club ownership. Of the 16 clubs, ten are owned by their members, one is shareholder-owned, four are owned by their respective state football Commissions and one licence is held by the AFL. The objectives of the league and the changes in its governance are also discussed. The history of labour market devices and revenue sharing rules the VFL/AFL has used to try to increase competitive balance is outlined. Six different periods between 1897 and 2003 are identified and the different levels of competitive balance are calculated for each year and then matched against the devices and rules used in each period. It is suggested that the high levels of competitive balance achieved in the VFL/AFL in the most recent period could well be the result of the introduction of both a national player draft and team salary cap.

description: Die Resilienz landwirtschaftlicher Unternehmen erlangt in den Leitzielen der Gemeinsamen Agrarpolitik ab 2023 eine zentrale Bedeutung. Ihre Operationalisierung stellt dabei eine wesentliche Herausforderung dar, da Resilienz als ein latentes Konstrukt weder direkt beobachtet werden kann noch einheitlich definiert wurde. Aus diesem Grund ist das Ziel, einen eigenständigen Ansatz zur Messung der kurz- bis mittelfristigen ökonomischen Resilienz landwirtschaftlicher Betriebe vorzuschlagen. Erstmalig werden dafür zentrale Anforderungen der Resilienzkonzeptionierung mit Zielvorgaben der Kreditwürdigkeitsprüfung zu einem praktikablen, zweidimensionalen Scoring-Ansatz vereint. Das Ergebnis ist eine Matrixformation, in der eine statische Dimension, geschätzt als aggregierter Index aus Betriebskennzahlen, einer dynamischen Dimension, geschätzt als Ausfallwahrscheinlichkeit mittels Monte-Carlo-Simulation, gegenübergestellt wird. Basierend auf einem Scoring-Verfahren beider Dimensionen lässt sich die ökonomische Resilienz der Betriebe damit in fünf Stufen einteilen. Diese können bspw. als zweckmäßige Anhaltspunkte für die Auswahl an Risikomanagementinstrumenten oder regionale Betriebsvergleiche dienen. Ebenso können auf Grundlage weiterführender Szenarioanalysen, in denen die Auswirkungen sich ändernder Politikmaßnahmen (z.B. neue Prämienverteilungen) auf die Resilienzbewertung untersucht werden, Politikimplikationen abgeleitet werden.

description: The relative virtues of quantitative and qualitative research have been vigorously debated. Several researchers recommend combining methodologies but there is little evidence in the literature to suggest how different research methods might be integrated (Bryman, 1988). The current study addresses this deficiency in the research by examining the use of latent variables in quantitative and qualitative research as a means of blending the two approaches. A study of entrepreneurial Locus of Control where quantitative and qualitative data were available illustrates the methodological issues. Analysis of quantitative data was conducted using LISREL (7.20) and qualitative data were categorised using NUDIST (Non-numerical Unstructured Data Indexing Searching and Theorising computer software). Detailed comparisons are made between the method described in this paper and other approaches to content analysis.

Alternatives To The "Heroic" Leader: An Investigation Of Distributed Leadership In Nonprofit Organisations
Creators: name: Inglis, Loretta

description: Most leadership literature is based on the idea of one single, heroic leader. However, there is an alternate view in the literature, emphasised recently, that leadership is not the prerogative of one individual, but is likely to be distributed among different members of an organization or team. This paper discusses the literature on a range of leadership ideas relating to this theme. Much of this literature assumes the empowerment of others by a leader in order for them to take a leadership role where appropriate; yet in some organizations it is clear that two, or more leaders at executive management level are actively involved in sharing the leadership of the whole organisation. Distributed leadership, and other similar terms, is particularly evident in the literature related to nonprofit organisations in the educational and healthcare industries, but there is little discussion of distributed leadership in community member benefit nonprofits. This paper seeks to identify if distributed leadership exists in a range of community nonprofit associations. The study outlines the structure of six nonprofit associations showing the number of leaders involved and how leadership functions are performed. This reveals that there is no single leader paramount in these organisations, and rather than a hierarchical structure, with one individual leader being recognised, leadership in these organisations is exercised by at least two people working together in some form.
Impact of structural change in education, industry and infrastructure on income distribution in Sri Lanka

description: Income inequality increased in Sri Lanka following trade liberalization in 1977. This study applies a semi-parametric method to investigate whether structural changes in education, industry and infrastructure access underlay the change in the distribution. The study finds that while the concentration of people shifted towards higher income ranges at every stage in the distribution between 1985 and 2002, changes in access to infrastructure triggered much of the shift. Higher levels of educational attainment also had an impact. But the middle classes appear to have benefited disproportionately more from the provision of education and infrastructure services than did the poor. The analysis recommends that such services are targeted more effectively towards those in the poorest income deciles to enable them to move out of poverty to higher income ranges.
Adam Smith and the Welfare Cost of Optimism
Creators: name: Niehans, Jurg
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Adam Smith, in his well-known defense of interest ceilings, is shown to have stumbled upon a source of welfare losses which, though pervasive and potentially fundamental, has never been further explored. Such losses occur because competition allocates resources to the highest bidders, whose expectations tend to have an optimistic bias. Incorrect expectations, however, may cause output losses. In the first section of the paper. Smith's argument about ceiling rates is generalized to a proposition about resource allocation. The second section scans 20th century literature, from Frank Knight to the "winner's curse", for traces of this proposition. In section 3 the argument is formalized into a model of resource allocation among three agents. The final section extends this model to any number of agents.

Inequality trends and determinants in Sri Lanka 1980-2002: a Shapley approach to decomposition

description: Sri Lanka liberalised its economy in 1977, paving the way for more rapid economic growth and higher rates of job creation. But tensions over distributional issues still plague the body politic. This paper investigates the evolution of Sri Lanka's income distribution in the period 1980-2002 and uses the Shapley value decomposition methodology to determine underlying causes. The study finds that while average incomes rose across strata, the rich experienced more rapid income growth leading to greater inequality. Inequality change was driven by differential access to infrastructure, education, and occupation status. Demographic factors including ethnicity, and spatial factors, contributed very little. The study recommends policies that ensure more equitable access to income earning assets such as education and infrastructure services and make sure that increases in inequality do not take place along sectoral, regional and ethnic fault lines.
Globalization And Social Protection In Sri Lanka: Diverging Views Between Centre And Periphery

description: Following the Asian financial crisis of 1997-98 the literature of the major international development agencies (centre), began to assert that the globalization process requires nations to build and sustain sophisticated social safety nets that can insure their populations against the volatility that characterises open economies. In this paper we utilize the experience of Sri Lanka as a test case to determine whether the new appreciation of the link between globalization and social protection is influencing the perspective and practices of agents within recipient countries (periphery). We conclude there is a lack of awareness of the globalization-safety net link amongst domestic stakeholders and a clear difference of views between the central offices and the local representatives of the IDAs. We suggest this is a cause of great concern not least because there exists a domestic constituency within Sri Lanka that would be receptive to proposals designed to strengthen social safety nets should the global agencies make a sustained effort to promote the message present in the rhetoric emanating from Washington and Manila.

description: One of the major challenges facing organisations in the 21s t century is the management of culturally heterogeneous workgroups (CHWs). Although the diversity literature suggests that diverse workgroups can be more innovative and better problem solvers than homogeneous groups, it also acknowledges that diverse workgroups often fail to achieve this potential because of task and emotional conflict. The kinds of conflict that are generated in CHWs and leader and member responses to them lack thorough documentation in the literature. In this paper, we examine the emotions experienced with conflict in diverse workgroups and the ways in which group members and leaders respond to conflict-related emotions.
