An Empirical Examination of the Performance Impact of Coalignment between Competitive Strategy and Environmental Uncertainty
Is there a bigger and better future for employer branding?:Facing up to innovation, corporate reputations and wicked problems in SHRM
Employer branding is becoming an increasingly important topic for research and
practice in multinational enterprises (MNEs) because it plays directly into their
corporate reputation, talent management and employee engagement agendas. In this
paper, we argue that the potential effects of employer branding have yet to be fully
understood because current theory and practice have failed to connect this internal
application of marketing and branding to the key reputational and innovation agendas
of MNEs, both of which are at the heart of another strategic agenda â effective
corporate governance. However, these agendas are characterised by âwicked problemsâ
in MNEs, which have their origins in competing logics in strategic human resource
management (SHRM). These problems need to be articulated and understood before
they can be addressed. This paer proceeds by (1) setting out a definition and model of
employer branding and how it potentially articulates with corporate governance,
innovation and organisational reputations, (2) discussing and analysing the âwicked
problemsâ resulting from the sometimes contradictory logics underpinning innovation
and corporate reputations and SHRM in MNEs and (3) evaluating the potential of
employer branding as a contribution to the third SHRM approach â HR strategy-inaction
â as a way of resolving three particularly wicked problems in MNEs. We
conclude with some ideas for research and practice on the future for emp

Enterprise Ownership, Market Competition and Manufacturing Priorities in a Sub-Saharan African Emerging Economy: Evidence from Ghana
The economic liberalization policies being implemented by many African economies have led to significant efficiency and performance improvements in the activities of privately owned enterprises. This study examines the effect of the economic liberalization policies on the entrepreneurial development of domestic-owned enterprises. This is done by examining how the type of enterprise ownership (wholly domestic-owned enterprises vs. foreignâdomestic joint ventures enterprises), and the increase in competition affect the manufacturing priorities of privately owned enterprises in Ghana. The results show that the enhancement in manufacturing efficiency and quality improvement in privately owned enterprises could be traced to the activities of foreignâdomestic joint venture enterprises. However, as market competition increases, wholly domestic-owned enterprises emphasize manufacturing efficiency and quality improvement more that foreignâdomestic joint venture enterprises. Implications for policy are discussed.
