Abstract
Due to the effect of citation impact on The
Higher Education (THE) world university ranking system, most of the
researchers are looking for some helpful techniques to increase their
citation record. This paper by reviewing the relevant articles extracts
33 different ways for increasing the citations possibilities. The
results show that the article visibility has tended to receive more
download and citations. This is probably the first study to collect over
30 different ways to improve the citation record. Further study is
needed to explore and expand these techniques in specific fields of
study in order to make the results more precisely. © by the author(s).

Abstract
The aim of this study is to examine the
effect of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) development on
country's scientific ranking as measured by H-index. Moreover, this
study applies ICT development sub-indices including ICT Use, ICT Access
and ICT skill to find the distinct effect of these sub-indices on
country's H-index. To this purpose, required data for the panel of 14
Middle East countries over the period 1995 to 2009 is collected.
Findings of the current study show that ICT development increases the
H-index of the sample countries. The results also indicate that ICT Use
and ICT Skill sub-indices positively contribute to higher H-index but
the effect of ICT access on country's H-index is not clear. © 2005-2013

Emergent leader detection and identification in a virtual team environment: A grounded theory study

Emergent leader detection and identification in a virtual team environment: A grounded theory study
by Shehab Nasser, Faisal, D.M., UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX, 2013, 251 pages; 3577287



Abstract:


One challenge facing organizations using virtual teams
is the inability to detect, identify, select, and develop emergent
leaders working in the virtual team environment, which might increase
the organizational risk of a shortage in leadership resources. The
purpose of the qualitative, grounded theory research study was to define
a theory about the emergent leader detection and identification process
in a virtual team environment, using data systematically obtained and
analyzed through the constant comparative method. Twenty-four virtual
team members, virtual team leaders, and virtual team managers
participated in semi-structured telephone interviews. The data analysis
produced 74 themes and subthemes to provide a deeper understanding of
the phenomena. Five common themes emerged to group 69 subthemes:
responsibility, characteristics, constraints, facilitation, and
outcomes. The theory provided information about the individuals
responsible for the detection and identification of emergent leaders in a
virtual team environment, characteristics useful to help detect and
identify emergent leaders, areas of constraint in identification, areas
facilitating
identification, and risks and opportunities resulting from
the organizational ability or inability to detect emergent leaders in a
virtual team environment. Future research could provide support for the
findings of this study by replicating the study using traditional teams,
larger teams, or teams with more diverse backgrounds and compositions.

Individual and Professional Development in the Digital Age: Towards a Conceptual Model of Virtual Worlds for Organizations


Document Information:
Title:Individual and Professional Development in the Digital Age: Towards a Conceptual Model of Virtual Worlds for Organizations
Author(s):Bernadett Koles, (Central European University), Peter Nagy, (Central European University)
Citation:Bernadett Koles, Peter Nagy, (2014) "Individual and Professional Development in the Digital Age: Towards a Conceptual Model of Virtual Worlds for Organizations", Management Research Review, Vol. 37 Iss: 3
Article type:Conceptual paper
Publisher:Emerald Group Publishing Limited
Abstract:Purpose - The current paper embraces an interdisciplinary approach to illustrate some of the ways in which virtual worlds expanded upon the individual, social and professional options of employees in organizational settings.
Design/methodology/approach - Through an extensive literature review, the paper compiles the latest and most fundamental research capturing relevant concepts from the fields of psychology, pedagogy, management and human-computer interaction.
Findings - The current conceptual model incorporates individual and group level outcomes associated with virtual world participation, along three primary dimensions; namely self-reference, role experimentation and social capital, accounting for potential variation based on the extent of organizational engagement.
Practical implications - The three proposed dimensions elaborated in the current model, including reflexivity / transference, role playing / role identification, and group collaboration / virtual teams, enable organizations to understand the likely outcomes of their virtual presence from the perspective of their structural and social attributes.
Originality/value - The proposed conceptual model offers a theoretical base for academics and practitioners to expand upon and develop concrete practical examples and cases.
