W artykule opisano wady dualistycznego modelu własności mieszkania i zarządzania budynkami wielomieszkaniowymi (kondominium), które pojawiły się w krajach postsocjalistycznych po prywatyzacji i były spowodowane niewłaściwym otoczeniem instytucjonalnym. Przedstawiono również ogólną problematykę stosowania modelu kondominium dla nowoczesnych i dużych kompleksów mieszkaniowych oraz w trudnych sytuacjach braku środków finansowych na remonty budynków. W takich przypadkach zamiast dalszego komplikowania zarządzania wspólnotami mieszkaniowymi uzasadniona jest celowość ich przekształcenia w jednolity model korporacyjny wspólnej własności domu.

EN

The article describes the defects of the dualistic model of home ownership and management of multi-apartment buildings (condominium), which appeared in post-socialist countries after privatization and were caused by an inappropriate institutional environment. However, the general problematic of using the condominium model for modern large residential complexes and in difficult situations of lack of funding for renovation of buildings is also shown. In these cases, instead of further complicating the management of condominiums, the expediency of their transformation into a unitary corporate model of joint home ownership is substantiated.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has been forming very dynamically and intensively for several decades. The rapid development, as well as the relatively large scope of this concept, which is cross-sectionally related to a number of different social disciplines, so far causes a very significant terminological inconsistency. The paper focuses on the relationship between CSR and the financial performance of companies, or on the positive consequences of applying the concept of CSR in business on the example of a selected company Deutsche Telekom AG, which applies CSR in its business and which achieves positive results not only from this point of view, but also from the point of view of company profitability. When analyzing the company from the point of view of the global market, it quantitatively monitors the impact of the measured indicators on the profitability of total assets (ROA) and on net profit, by testing the basic assumptions made on the classical linear regression model. The main goal of the paper was to find out the impact of CSR on the financial results of the parent company Deutsche Telekom AG for the period 2001-2021 and to find the relationship between CSR and economic benefits.

The research examined the effect of shipping company demographic characteristics on cabotage vessel finance and repayment in Nigeria. The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) have been concerned about the inability of the Ship Acquisition and Ship Building Fund (SASBF) beneficiaries to pay back disbursed loans fully, resulting in the suspension of further disbursement of the fund required for the development of Nigerian local content capacity. The Cabotage Act 2003 was intended for local content development of shipping and maritime logistics capacity. The fund realized through a 2% surcharge on cabotage trade has accrued since inception, but no shipowner has benefited from the CVFF loan. The study relied on both primary and secondary data. Data was collected through a well-structured questionnaire. The study utilized a Statistical Product Service Solution (SPSS v. 23) and a one-sample chi-square test as statistical tools for data analysis. The results reveal that demographic characteristics of shipping companies, such as age, number of vessels, number of employees and total annual revenue, significantly influence CVFF loan repayment. Purpose: To identify and analyze the shipping company demographic characteristics which influence cabotage vessel finance and repayment in Nigeria. The findings suggested practical steps for effective CVFF loan disbursement and reliable loan recovery. Methodology: The study utilized Statistical Product Service Solution (SPSS v. 23) and a one-sample chi-square test as statistical tools for data analysis. Results: The demographic characteristics of a shipping company, such as company age in years, number of employees, share capital, number of vessels and shipyards as well as the age of vessels and shipyards has a significant influence on her Character, Capacity, Credibility, Capital, Conditions, Collateral and Creditworthiness of the organization. Theoretical contribution: The research contributed to exploring, understanding, and applying the probability of credit default theory in shipping finance loan repayment. The demographic internal microeconomic organization Character, Capacity, Credibility, Capital, Conditions, Collateral and Creditworthiness significantly affects the ability of CVFF fund beneficiaries to repay the loans. Practical implications: Prospective borrower indigenous maritime operators should be duly and professionally evaluated to ensure sustainable cash flow and revenue projection during and after granting CVFF loans to guarantee complete repayment.

Early identification of potential financial problems is among important companies’ risk management tasks. This paper aims to propose individual and ensemble models based on various types of neural networks. The created models are evaluated based on several quantitative metrics, and the best-proposed models predict the impending financial problems of Slovak companies a year in advance. The precise analysis and cleaning of real data from the financial statements of real Slovak companies result in a data set consisting of the values of nine potential predictors of almost 19 thousand companies. Individual and ensemble models based on MLP and RBF-type neural networks and the Kohonen map are created on the training sample. On the other hand, several metrics quantify the predictive ability of the created models on the test sample. Ensemble models achieved better predictive ability compared to individual models. MLP networks achieved the highest overall accuracy of almost 89 %. However, the non-prosperity of Slovak companies was best identified by RBF networks created by the boosting and bagging technique. The sensitivity of these models is about 87 %. The study found that models based on neural networks can be successfully designed and used to predict financial distress in the Slovak economy.

The article measures the scope of reporting climate-related information by companies considered CSR leaders in Poland. An original tool is employed for that purpose: a climate-related disclosures index. First, a critical comparative analysis was performed of climate-related disclosure initiatives (regulations, guidelines, standards) to pinpoint the key and commonly required disclosures. Next, an original index of climate-related disclosures was designed. It helped compute index values for 20 companies perceived as Poland’s CSR leaders. Non-financial reports available in the public domain were analysed for that purpose. The study showed that virtually all climate-related disclosure initiatives implement, to a greater or lesser extent, the TCFD recommendations, which were also embedded in the developed index covering 18 indicators. The total index value (ranging from 0 to 1) for the analysed companies was 0.51, with a median of 0.42. The index demonstrates that companies named CSR leaders in Poland do not display high awareness of climate change.

Celem artykułu jest ocena zakresu raportowania informacji związanych z klimatem przez przedsiębiorstwa uznawane za liderów CSR w Polsce, dokonana za pomocą autorskiego indeksu ujawnień klimatycznych. Najpierw przeprowadzono krytyczną analizę porównawczą treści inicjatyw ujawnień klimatycznych (regulacji, wytycznych i standardów) w celu zidentyfikowania kluczowych i najczęściej wymaganych ujawnień klimatycznych. Na tej podstawie zbudowano autorski indeks ujawnień klimatycznych, w oparciu o który policzono indeks dla 20 firm uznawanych za liderów CSR w Polsce (w oparciu o analizę treści publicznie dostępnych w Internecie raportów niefinansowych firm). Badania pozwoliły stwierdzić, że praktycznie wszystkie inicjatywy ujawnień klimatycznych w większym bądź mniejszym stopniu implementują wytyczne TCFD, które stały się podstawą autorskiego indeksu ujawnień klimatycznych, obejmującego 18 wskaźników. Całkowita wartość indeksu (przyjmującego wartości od 0 do 1) dla analizowanych firm wyniosła 0.51 przy medianie równej 0.42. Indeks pokazuje, że firmy zaliczane do liderów CSR w Polsce nie charakteryzują się wysoką świadomością w zakresie zmian klimatu.

Industrial reception spaces (IRSs) are receptacles for a large part of the national socioeconomic activity in Morocco. They contribute substantially to sustaining economic growth and national dynamics of industrialization. These areas are increasingly faced with several constraints, notably deficient infrastructure, competitiveness, and compliance with the new environmental legislation. These constraints stem from the proven and potential impacts of CC on both individual industrial units and the IRS as a common space. There is an urgent need to make these spaces environment-friendly and more resilient to current and future climate risks through appropriate methodological approaches, leading to effective climate risk management and implementation of proactive CC adaptation strategies. This was the context in which this study was conducted. As a case study, the industrial area (IA) of Aït Melloul, located near the city of Agadir in Morocco, was based on a participatory approach of climate risk assessment involving a task force representing the main socio-economic and state operators concerned by this IA. This was accomplished by analyzing the risks and vulnerabilities of the IRS and the agri-food units within it. The analysis provides key elements for a future strategy for business sector resilience and energy transition. The new project to requalify Ait Melloul IA would provide an opportunity to incorporate these elements as well as to capitalize on lessons learned from programs at the local level, particularly about energy efficiency and building the adaptive capacity of businesses.

Purpose: Trust is an important factor in supporting the management of employee teams. It plays a special role in developing interpersonal relations, leadership, and goal setting. The most important person who stimulates trust is the leader, who takes steps to build organizational trust. The aim of the paper was to identify the role of leadership in stimulating trust between managers and subordinates as an important factor in business development. The following research questions were addressed to achieve this aim: What relationships exist between vertical trust and intra-organizational processes in companies? To what extent do leadership attributes affect building vertical trust? To what extent do leadership attributes related to building trust influence enterprise growth? Design/methodology/approach: The research used a one-time survey method with the unweighted sample design, using mixed techniques: CATI telephone interviewing and CAWI web interviewing. The survey operator was a database of the 500 largest companies in Poland (according to the ranking of the Rzeczpospolita website). Based on the random sampling method, a research sample of 179 companies was collected. Findings: The study showed the impact of leadership attributes, i.e. attitudes of acceptance of others and open-mindedness, honesty and adherence to the rules, consistency in making decisions, compassion and empathy, on the process of building employees' trust in managers. Significant relationships between vertical trust and intra-organizational processes have also been identified. The results of the study confirmed the impact of vertical trust on both intra 24 organizational processes and the development of enterprises. Research limitations: Due to their quantitative nature (survey research), the study results lead to limited conclusions. Practical implications: The results provide insights into the use of leadership attributes in building organizational trust, which can support a trust-based organizational culture in modern companies. Social implications: The research results presented in this paper point to the important role of the manager in stimulating organizational trust in large companies. Originality/value: In a cognitive sense, the results contribute to understanding the role of leadership in building vertical trust and its impact on intra-organizational processes.

Nowadays, trade is shifting mainly to virtual reality. Increasingly more customers, using various types of mobile devices such as computers, smartphones, tablets, look for products and services in online stores, counting on fast, convenient and efficient fulfilment of the order. To meet the customers’ requirements, trade enterprises may implement the omnichannel strategy as a way to streamline the entire sales and distribution system of goods from the store to the customer, ensuring the possibility of continuous monitoring transactions. The paper examines the development of omnichannel strategy by the Polish small and medium enterprises. The underlying assumption of the paper is to identify to what extent the Polish companies concentrate on omnichannel strategy in the functioning of their business. The discussion is based on the results of the study obtained from the CAWI survey, CATI survey, and the in-depth interview conducted among the group of Polish MSMEs in Silesian Voivodeship.

Game theoretic analysis of ideologically biased clickbait or fake news and real news

Vol. 30, No. 2

39--57

EN

A decision and game theoretic model is developed for how one and two news organisations strike balances between producing clickbait or fake news, and real news. Each news organisation seeks to attract gullible consumers who consume more clickbait or fake news than real news, and non-gullible consumers who conscientiously consume only real news. Increasing a news organisation budget results in obtaining both more clickbait or fake news, and more real news. More clickbait or fake news is produced if the news organisation’s unit cost of effort to produce real news, the production efficiency for clickbait or fake news, and the fraction of consumers consuming clickbait or fake news, increase. In contrast, less clickbait or fake news is produced if a news organisation’s unit cost of effort to produce clickbait or fake news, and the production efficiency for real news, increase, and the gullible consumers consume real news with a higher frequency. Lower unit effort costs and higher budget and production efficiencies cause higher utility for a news organisation and lower utility for the competing news organisation. Higher weight assigned to the contest over clickbait or fake news induces both news organisations to exert higher effort to produce clickbait or fake news. When the gullible consumers of a news organisation consume a relatively large amount of real news in comparison to the consumers of another news organisation, then the first news organisation exerts higher effort to produce real news and obtains higher utility than the other news organisation.

While digital transformation is still a challenge for many companies when introducting digital technologies in existing processes and business models, digital ubiquity stands for the next step in digitalization. It characterizes the omnipresence of a large range of digital technologies, connectivity, and data as well as entirely digital organizations. This includes for example upcoming technologies such as distributed ledgers, artificial intelligence or augmented reality and according interfaces and data sources as well as decentralized apps and autonomous organizations. The challenge thus becomes to optimally deal with these opportunities and deploy them efficiently in business scenarios. In this paper we will investigate the role of enterprise modeling under this paradigm and how it can contribute to a well-structured, systematic understanding of complex digital phenomena for supporting business and technological decisions.

PL

Artykuł obejmuje współczesne podejście do procesu sprzedaży w przedsiębiorstwach. W chwili obecnej na wielu rynkach (także na rynku polskim) funkcjonuje tradycyjne podejście do sprzedaży, związane z indywidualnym i całościowym podejściem przez sprzedawców do swoich klientów. W wielu przypadkach najważniejszym elementem ich strategii jest produkcja, a nie sprzedaż. Przedsiębiorstwa maksymalnie dużo czasu i zasobów poświęcają na optymalizację produkcji, w tym np. obniżki kosztów, zapominając o znaczeniu procesu sprzedaży swoich produktów i usług. W artykule przedstawiono bardzo nowoczesną koncepcję sprzedaży o dużym potencjale rozwoju, opartą na strukturalizowaniu procesu sprzedaży w przedsiębiorstwie. Podstawą tej koncepcji jest mapowanie procesu sprzedaży na podprocesy według czterech zasad, a mianowicie: centralnego planowania pracy, standaryzowania przepływów pracy, specjalizowania zasobów oraz formalizację zarządzania. Koncepcja ta na rynku amerykańskim nazywana jest „maszyną” sprzedażową.

EN

The article covers a contemporary approach to the sales process in enterprises. At present, in many markets (also on the Polish market), there is a traditional approach to sales, namely the individual and comprehensive approach by the sellers to their clients. In many cases enterprises operating on the Polish market, production is the most important element of their strategy, not sales. Enterprises spend as much time and resources as possible to optimize their production, including, for example, cost reductions, forgetting the importance of selling their products and services. The article presents a very modern sales concept with a large growth potential, based on structuring the sales process in an enterprise. The basis of this concept is to map the sales process to subprocesses according to four principles, namely: central work planning, standardizing workflows, specializing resources and formalizing management. This concept on the American market is called a “machine” sale.
