Impact of Temperature on Insect Behavior in India

Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate the Impact of Temperature on Insect Behavior in India. Methodology: The study adopted a desktop methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive\u27s time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library Findings: Research on the impact of temperature on insect behavior in India has demonstrated significant findings. As temperatures continue to rise due to climate change, insects are exhibiting altered behaviors, affecting various ecosystems and agricultural practices. Studies indicate shifts in the timing of insect life cycles, including altered breeding patterns and earlier emergence from diapause. Additionally, rising temperatures have been associated with increased insect pest activity, posing threats to crop yields and ecosystem dynamics. These findings underscore the need for proactive measures to mitigate the consequences of changing insect behaviors in India, including adaptive agricultural strategies and ecosystem management practices. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The Degree-Day Theory, Temperature-Dependent Activity Theory and Optimal Foraging Theory may be used to anchor future studies on the Impact of Temperature on Insect Behavior in India. Pest control strategies should be tailored to account for temperature-dependent shifts in insect activity patterns, thereby optimizing the timing and choice of control measures. Policymakers should recognize the critical role of temperature in shaping insect behavior and its cascading effects on ecosystems, food security, and public health.

Unbundling the W’s: the interface between organisational crises, social media narratives, and image repair strategies

Organisations are susceptible and vulnerable to crisis situations. These organisations have been able to exert resilience, and manage reputational damage, through crisis management protocols that include stakeholder engagement. However, given the rise of social media, a new cohort of stakeholders has emerged. Organisations are therefore faced with the task of managing new stakeholder relationships. This paper applies recent advancements in social media and crisis management discourse to investigate the prevalence of new, undiscovered stakeholders in crisis communications surrounding six prominent crisis situations. The results indicate that online stakeholders are becoming more powerful, urgent and legitimacy; thus shifting dynamics

Exit or stay: A critical incident analysis of decision-making in conflict-torn countries

Deploying small world representation logic, we examine the context-specific factors that inform managerial decision-making in conflict-torn countries. Drawing on insights from thirty-one managers, we spotlight nine higher-order heuristics that commonly inform MNEs’ mental representations and their managers’ decision to exit or stay. These heuristics were identified by categorising the commonalities arising from our respondents’ accounts on what information they search for (discovery heuristics) and how it was evaluated (evaluation heuristics). We discovered that information accessibility, conditioned by firms’ in-country experiences, is paramount. Furthermore, since employees are strategy shapers, they can undermine the resilience-enhancing benefits of operational flexibility in conflict-torn countries
