Leveraging social capital in university-industry knowledge transfer strategie...Ian McCarthy
University-industry partnerships emphasise the transformation of knowledge into products and processes which can be commercially exploited. This paper presents a framework for understanding how social capital in university-industry partnerships affect knowledge transfer strategies, which impacts on collaborative innovation developments. University-industry partnerships in three different countries, all from regions at varying stages of development, are compared using the proposed framework. These include a developed region (Canada), a transition region (Malta), and a developing region (South Africa). Structural, relational and cognitive social capital dimensions are mapped against the knowledge transfer strategy that the university-industry partnership employed: leveraging existing knowledge or appropriating new knowledge. Exploring the comparative presence of social capital in knowledge transfer strategies assists in better understanding how university-industry partnerships can position themselves to facilitate innovation. The paper proposes a link between social capital and knowledge transfer strategy by illustrating how it impacts the competitive positioning of the university-industry partners involved.

The Design of an Online Social Network Site for Emergency Management: A One-S...guest636475b
Web 2.0 is creating new opportunities for communication and collaboration. Part of this explosion is the increase in popularity and use of Social Network Sites (SNSs) for general and domain-specific use. In the emergency domain there are a number of websites, wikis, SNSs, etc. but they stand as silos in the field, unable to allow for cross-site collaboration. In this paper we describe ongoing design science research to develop and refine guiding principles for developing an SNS that will bring together emergency domain professionals in a “one-stop-shop.” We surveyed emergency professionals who study crisis information systems, to ascertain potential functionalities of such an SNS. Preliminary results suggest that there is a need for the envisioned SNS. Future research will continue to explore possible solutions to issues addressed in this paper.

Visible Effort: A Social Entropy Methodology for Managing Computer-Mediated ...Sorin Adam Matei
A theoretically-grounded learning feedback tool suite, the Visible Effort (VE) Mediawiki extension, is proposed for optimizing online group learning activities by measuring the amount of equality and the emergence of social structure in groups that participate in Computer-Mediated Collaboration (CMC). Building on social entropy theory, drawn from Shannon’s Mathematical Theory of Communication, VE captures levels of CMC unevenness and group structure and visualizes them on wiki Web pages through background colors, charts, and tabular data. Visual information provides users entropic feedback on how balanced and equitable collaboration is within their online group are, while helping them to maintain it within optimal levels. Finally, we present the theoretical and practical implications of VE and the measures behind it, as well as illustrate VE’s capabilities by describing a quasi-experimental teaching activity (use scenario) in tandem with a detailed discussion of theoretical justification, methodological underpinning, and technological capabilities of the approach.

Exploring information literacy through the lens of Activity TheoryHazel Hall
'Exploring information literacy through the lens of Activity Theory' is a paper presented by Bruce Ryan at the 5th European Conference on Information Literacy in St-Malo, France, 18th to 21st September 2017. It is concluded that Activity Theory is an appropriate tool for information literacy research. Its main strengths are found in the processes of preparing data collection tools and the extraction of ‘meaning’ from interview data. In addition, Activity Theory is especially powerful at identifying contradictions between the activities under scrutiny in research projects. In this case, since information literacy was viewed through the lens of Activity Theory, barriers to information sharing, and the stimulation of change in information practice, emerged as strong themes in the research project findings. **The full paper for this slide deck is available.

I. Background
There are currently four generations working side by side in today’s workforce, yet very soon, there will be a fifth adding to the mix as the oldest generation ages out of the workforce and enters retirement (Zemke, Raines, & Filipczak, 2000). The Silent Generation have all but retired, but some still occupy positions in the workplace and still have significant influence through voting, media, and “heritage” or “emeritus” positions in high-placed institutions such as universities or executive boards. They were born around 1925 through 1945. The Baby Boomers are those said to be born between 1946 and 1964, many are still working and due to retirement age increases and the downfalls of the economy. This generation is can be found amongst Americans leadership at many city, state, and federal levels. The Baby Boomers, despite being rowdy and experimental in their youth, settled into a self-centered and materialistic approach to life in the 1980s, with a clear majority turning to Reagan, Reaganite neoliberal policies and even to religion through “born again” Christianity. Generation X is often referred to as the MTV Generation; they were born between 1965 and 1980. Many grew up during the Vietnam War and the rise of the AIDS virus. They are characterized by their hedonistic approach to life, their rejection of traditional values put forth by their conservative parents, and a cynicism for the established norms of society. Next is Generation Y, or the Millennials, which was born between 1981 and 1995. This generation saw the Persian Gulf War unfold before their very eyes on national television, and soon followed the OJ Simpson trial, as well as Former President Clinton’s impeachment. This so-called Millennial generation is among the most maligned in history, having been dismissed as narcissists and mindless, materialistic and venal workaholics (Barton, Koslow, Fromm, & Egan, 2012; Bergman, Fearrington, Davenport, & Bergman, 2011; Donatone, 2013; Twenge, 2013). This generation has simultaneously grown up with the Internet and yet still carries memories of the world before the digital sphere took over; this generation has nonetheless been denigrated in the popular press to the point where few take people of this generation seriously, even as they “age” into the dominant workforce generation. The newest generation that will be going to work soon is Generation Z, who were born toward the end of the 1990’s to 2010. This generation witnessed the 9/11 attacks from elementary school and endured OIF/OEF each day of their lives, with many seeing parents sent off to the Middle East and shipped home in body bags or with extreme disabilities. They have always known of Homeland Security’s threat levels to include increased airport security. They are soon to be the target demographic of colleges, m ...

Intergenerational diversity is a universal fact in sustainability and today’s work environment.
Current studies seek to find differences that exist between these generational groups that
coexist, cooperate, and sometimes compete in business organizations. Sixteen focus
groups have taken place, four for each generation to find the differences that may exist
depending on that group membership. Specifically, the psychological empowerment and
psychological flexibility variables have been analyzed, which have already shown their
relevance to improve performance. Results show differences between the older generations
(BB and Gen X) and the younger ones (Gen Y and Gen Z).
Keywords: psychological flexibility, psychological empowerment, generation, millennial, diversity
INTRODUCTION
The development of the Internet and data analysis (Geczy et al., 2014), the abundance of
information (Southwell, 2005), the globalization (Mark, 1996), the growing interest in diversity
(Guajardo, 2014), the increased consumer power (Kucuk, 2008), or what is known as the
sharing economy (Belk, 2018), all represent deep changes which are affecting people and
organizations to a great extent. This environment is now defined as VUCA (Whiteman, 1998),
an acronym of Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity.
Companies are responding to this new environment in very different ways. One of the
most common is the intensification of work, which is understood both as the hours worked
as well as the intensity of the work. This intensification is reaching the acceptable limits
(Brown, 2012) and at the same time has resulted in pressure ...

The Harmful Effect of Personal Technology to Students
American Intercontinental University
November 27, 2016
Abstract
This paper discusses the subject matter that students are being harmed by their overdependence on personal digital technology. It highlights four main points to support this argument and offers one counter argument. It concludes by stating that in as much as technology does harm students, it has contributed to the quality of education.
Overdependence of personal digital technology by students should be monitored and regulated as they are adversely affected.
First, statistics report that three in four teens (74%) aged 12-17 own cell phones, tablets and other devices (Pew Research Centre, 2013). This is alarming as one wonders what time do they get to their studies and even socializing. Students’ overdependence on technology adversely affects their social skills which enhance interaction and communication with others.
The second argument is that students visit social media sites multiple times in a day and this means that they do not get to their school assignments and if they do, it is not ...

Part of the British Academy of Management Research Methods SIG 'Sharing our Struggles' series.
The increased use of the Internet, social media and other virtual sites for discussing and accomplishing work and organization raises both new possibilities and new challenges for conducting organizational research. We have the opportunity to view work in a different way, to access the previously inaccessible and to gain insight into virtual organization through the utilisation of on-line research methods but we still know very little about how we might effectively and usefully do this. In this workshop speakers will discuss their own specific experiences of on-line research, revealing both their successes and the issues that arise.

The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.
Artificial intelligence (AI) offers new opportunities to radically reinvent the way we do business. This study explores how CEOs and top decision makers around the world are responding to the transformative potential of AI.
2. Session overview
Whistle - stop tour
Discourses of age: generations
Discourses of age: missing million
Beyond text: visual analyses of gendered
ageing
Gendered ageing and the entrepreneur: from
weary women to Barbie and back again.
What next?
4. Scope of research (c. 2011)
All ages and all age groups
Exploring ‘language’ of age at work
Unpack voice and opportunities for voice
(who is being heard online?)
Explore, apply and develop qualitative
online research methodologies
5. Motivations and interests
Challenge assumptions about age (naturalisation of
chronological age)
Consider how ‘young’ and ‘old’ constructed as distinct in
the labour market and similarities in the means (e.g.
regulatory) and measures (e.g. chronological age) of
exclusion
Explore a neglected (in management) aspect of diversity
(universality of ageing etc.)
6. Broad research question
How are notions of age, age identities and
related concepts, socially constructed
online* in relation to issues of work ?
(*Online here used in a broad sense to refer to Web 2.0 media as data
and internet-mediated research as method)
7. “research not
just about the
Internet but
also on it and
through it
and
constituted
within it”
(Hine, 2005)
8. Relevance?
Unpack and explore what we might previously
have labelled ‘context’ or ignored
Look at interactions between organizations and/or
the ways in which organizations engage with others
online
Examine the ways in which individuals (including
employees, customers etc.) engage with different
organizations
9. Relevance?
Web 2.0 “permeates and even replaces traditional
forms of organizing” (Pablo and Hardy, 2012: 822)
Challenges the “assumption that organising
necessarily occurs in organisations” (Ashcraft,
2007:11)
“media spectacle” (Tan, 2011): follow stories as they
unfold across various different media
We might call this Digital Discourse Analysis
11. Generations
Generations are cohorts shaped by a shared socio-
cultural environment
Generational cohort theory predicts that this affects
individual values, attitudes, beliefs (e.g. Twenge et
al, 2012)
Increasingly used as a shorthand as practitioner
texts and a proxy for age in scholarly work (Foster,
2013)
Includes specific generational categories and
broader notions of ‘generational difference’
12.
13. Baby Boomers: are ‘older’ and
lucky, selfish, conservative, risk adverse, blocking
access to jobs for young people
in a privileged financial position with contested
entitlement to paid work
alternatively, as victims, having lost their savings
and struggling to find work
responsible for creating the lost generation, and
any negative consequences e.g. riots
having lost the ability to protest with meaningful
impact (a giant postcard)
14. Lost Generation: are ‘young’ and
unlucky, jobless with an (unearned) sense of
entitlement to work
this entitlement is challenged through disputed
individual capability
their talent is presented as potentiality
as the most disadvantaged in relation to finding
work
as child-like in their lack of ability to accept or
take responsibility, e.g. tackling their joblessness is
beyond the individual capacity
as a group ready to riot who, without access to
work, as both damaged and likely to cause
damage
15. What’s interesting about this?
The conflation and entanglement of generational
labels with age groups based on chronology
This is presented as factual, creating equivalence
between baby boomers and older workers and
between the lost generation and youth
Familial generational notions (child, parent,
grandparent) are enrolled within cohort-focused
debate e.g. lost generation’s is constructed as child-
like in their lack of ability to accept or take
responsibility
Those falling chronologically between LG and BB are
marginalised in debates about entitlement,
responsibility and consequences
16. What’s interesting about this?
Tensions between baby boomers and the lost generation
are emergent rather than natural states
Generational categories are constructed and deployed as
an organising principle in ways that legitimate age-related
differences, in particular, the entitlement of different age
groups to paid work
Use of dormant term (lost generation) allows previous
cultural understandings to be re-assigned, re-understood
and used with political effects
17. What’s interesting about this?
Terms require less and less explanation across
different media as the establishment of
generational labelling acquires legitimacy
Legitimacy allows for differential treatment of age
groups (once constructed as ‘generations’)
This avoids issues of age discrimination
Focus on generations deflects from more
structural factors affecting jobs and work
19. Discourses of unemployment
Fight and struggle (Straehle et al., 1999)
Need to be rescued (Cole, 2008)
Moral salvation of work (Whiteside, 2013)
Age dimensions (Fevre, 2011)
Scrapheap especially of early retirement
Getting a foot on the ladder
Emergence of the NEET (Furlong, 2006; MacDonald,
2011)
scarring effect of youth employment (Bell &
Blanchflower, 2010)
20. On 16th November 2011 the UK Office of
National Statistics quarterly Labour
Market Statistics Bulletin reported that
“unemployed people aged from 16 to 24
increased by 67,000 over the quarter to
reach 1.02 million … The unemployment
level and rate for people aged from 16 to
24 are the highest since directly
comparable records began in 1992”.
The missing million
21. The numbers game
Youth unemployment vs. ‘the elderly’
Youth 16-24 vs ?
ONS figures 16-64
Youth further broken down 16&17 vs 18-24; students
seeking part time work vs. others
Youth unemployment vs. foreign workers
Debate about the statistics particularly measures
used by different political parties
Attempts to highlight other groups overshadowed:
long term unemployed, women, those with
criminal records
22. ‘Youth’ vs ‘the elderly’: 14/11
TSO(CHILDREN) PRESS RELEASE: The most
disadvantaged unemployed 16 and 17
year olds are being ignored
UKNATIONAL NEWS: Training scheme sees
900% rise in apprenticeships for over-60s.
More elderly are taking up government
skills programme, but youth
unemployment is expected to hit one
million. For those aged 60 and over,
there has been an 878% increase – from
400 signing up in the year 2009-10, to
3,910 in the last year.
UKNATIONAL NEWS:Preliminary data for
October show a 900 percent increase in
government funded apprenticeships
being taken up by people over 60. The
apprentice scheme was set up to give
youth a chance to get on the job ladder.
MEDIAORGANIZATION: Apprenticeships
must help young workers
@INDIVIDUAL More elderly are taking up
government skills programme, but youth
unemployment is expected to hit one million
@TSO Over-60s apprenticeships up 900%!
While youth unemployment about to hit 1
million mark...
@NEWS Apprenticships (sic) up 900% as
youth unemployment tops 1 million
(NEWSLINK)
@TSO(CHILDREN) Did you know: the
unemployment rate for 16 and 17 year olds
has almost doubled in the last decade?
(WEBSITE LINK)
@MEDIAORGANIZATION FOR OLDER PEOPLE
Unemployment has hit one million
@NATIONALNEWS Youth unemployment to
hit 1 million as over 60s forced back to work
by Coalition retrain
23. Another missing million?
Three years later, on 23rd October 2014, a report
entitled ‘The missing million: illuminating the
employment challenges of the over 50s’ was
published by PRIME (The Prince’s Initiative for Mature
Enterprise, part of Business in the Community) in
association with the International Longevity Centre.
24. Work in progress
Adopting a case study approach (Rao et al., 2000)
to examine these two debates.
Uses a shortitudinal analysis investigates media
coverage during the two week period around each
of these announcements.
Focus both on what is said and by whom
Competition for:
jobs,
to be the most deserving recipient of the limited
resources/support.
26. Research Process
Identify sample of
images
‘Archaeological’*
Visual analysis
Initial sample of 120 images
reduced to 16 for analysis from criteria
related to research question
Used Rose (2012), Davison (2010),
Machin (2004)
‘Dialogical’*
Visual analysis
Group photo-elicitation, 39 participants
‘what is your impression of these photos?’,
Thematic analysis of comments
Refine sample of
images
Purchased rights to 3 stock images
(*Meyer et. al, 2013)
27. Methodological challenges
Complexity of online news and stock images
Production vs. consumption
Our consumption of data from online news
Our (re)production in different form for photo-elicitation
Photo-elicitation exercise
Image vs. image and text
responses as discursive fragments
more emotional commentary than in our own analysis –
why?
28. Gendered Ageing
‘gendered discourses saturate our society and
guide the way we think of ourselves, respond to
others and negotiate identity in our interactions’
(Mackenzie Davey, 2008: 654)
Intersectionality: ‘how multiple sources of
disadvantage combine’ (Woodhams et al., 2013:1)
Looking at ‘young’ professionals Kelan (2014: 801)
finds ‘age is used to make gender unspeakable’
30. Older woman
perched on
the edge
Older man
at apex of a
pyramid, in
command
of the table
Colour ‘rose’
represents youth
but all eyes are
on the younger
woman
Picture credit: Johnny Greig / Alamy
‘stereotypically older person is the boss, reviewing the work of a young team,
seated woman presenting the work so everyone is listening/focusing on her’
‘she [young woman] has called all these together to make some sort of
announcement’
‘ this [narrow age range] shows you don’t have youth or old age in a
successful environment’
31. Gendered ageing and the
Entrepreneur:
From ‘weary women’ to
Barbie and back again
32. Wearies
Wearies: ‘Working, Entrepreneurial and Active
Retirees’. They are innovative and entrepreneurial
contributors to the UK economy” (Daily Mail, 2012)
Pensioners who find it hard to get paid
employment because of their age but who
cannot afford to retire (Future Foundation, 2011)
Potential way out of double bind?
damned if they work (being selfish, taking jobs from
the lost generation) and damned if they don’t
(unvalued, burden on society) (Pritchard and
Whiting, 2014)
34. Weary women: issues raised
Gendering of the images:
Assumptions made about the present woman and
the absent man
Subject position of the ‘female pensioner’
Compare/contrast with media representations
women across the life course
Disconnect between W.E.A.R.Y and ‘weary’: does
this undermine even ridicule idea of older
entrepreneur?
36. Visual analyses
Increasing attention towards the visual in
management studies
Impossible to ignore in a digital context?
Particular research focus on advertising and
commodification of the young, female body
Within management studies focus on corporate
reports:
Diversity mosaic
Graduate recruitment brochures
Annual reports
37. Internet = Big data? Better data?
More data, meta data, better data
Synchronous and cotemporaneous data
Archive and archaeological data
Big data as the capacity for big research (Boyn and
Crawford, 2012)
Big data as mapping, mining, scrapping
Ethical issues
38. Small data in a big data world
Snippets, fragments and hints at data
tweets, youtube videos, slideshare presentations, posts
and comments etc.
data that might never be data (e.g. moderation)
Composite/transient nature of websites and online
media
Images, text, tags, hyperlinks combing in “a unique
mixture of the ephemeral and the permanent”
(Schneider & Foot, 2004:115)
How we navigate the maps and negotiate the
mines
Socio-material and practice-based perspectives
39. Dilemmas
Web 2.0 data is messy; some “types” are better?
more like ‘ordinary’ data?
Trying to fit-in:
Separating text and image into recognisable forms (a
version of transcription)
Categorising and counting
40. Examining consumption off
line
Current focus on ‘stock’ images:
Group photo-elicitation (image out of context, image
in context)
Plan qualitative photo-response survey subject to
funding
How to examine interactivity in Web 2.0?
What aspects of consumption can be captured e.g.
via comments etc.
How to explore internet practice off and online
