  • Does Graduate Education Contribute to Professional Accounting Success
    2005
    Co-Authors: Benson Wier, Dan Stone, James E. Hunton
    Abstract:

    We investigate the value of Graduate Business Education in learning tacit knowledge and achieving professional accounting success. Archival (n = 5,932) and survey (n = 2,941) data from managerial accountants employed at 2,525 North American companies in three industries (publishing, paper, and chemical) indicate that job performance evaluations (JPEs) of those who hold either a Masters of Accountancy (MAcc) or MBA degree are generally higher than non-master's (NM) degree accountants. We find some evidence that professionals with master's degrees, as compared to NM professionals, have higher levels of two forms of tacit managerial knowledge (TMK): self and others. The results also suggest that MAcc and MBA degrees contribute to success differentially throughout the professionals' careers. Specifically, a MAcc degree provides greater benefit than a MBA degree in the early and middle career years, while an MBA degree provides greater benefit than a MAcc degree in later career years. The results indicate that MAcc and MBA degrees contribute to success by increasing specific types of knowledge and enhancing ones' ability to learn.

  • case study how a Business school blog can build stakeholder relationships and create added value in an mba marketing program
    Journal of Strategic Marketing, 2017
    Co-Authors: Art Weinstein, Donovan A Mcfarlane
    Abstract:

    AbstractInnovation, market orientation, and creative collaboration allow the smartest – not necessarily the biggest – organizations to win in the marketplace. This approach to competitive strategy is applicable in a wide variety of market contexts including Business, information, and professional services. In this case study, we explain how one Business school delivered enhanced value for its two primary target markets – MBA students and the Business community. This was accomplished by designing a strategic communication tool (a faculty blog) to gain a competitive edge in the crowded Graduate Business Education market in South Florida. We clearly demonstrate that organizations can create and add value by activating and implementing corporate entrepreneurial processes, programs, and activities as part of their strategic and competitive marketing efforts. This can be in the form of customer relationship management-oriented blogs or other initiatives. Engaging current and prospective customers and stakeholde...

  • Students’ emotions for achievement and technology use in synchronous hybrid Graduate programmes: a control-value approach
    Research in Learning Technology, 2015
    Co-Authors: Nikolaus T. Butz, Robert H. Stupnisky, Reinhard Pekrun
    Abstract:

    Synchronous hybrid delivery (simultaneously teaching on-campus and online students using web conferencing) is becoming more common; however, little is known about how students experience emotions in this learning environment. Based on Pekrun’s (2006) control-value theory of emotions, the dual purpose of this study was first to compare synchronous hybrid students who attend online versus on-campus in terms of control, value, emotions and perceived success and second to compare students’ degree of emotional activation in the domains of programme achievement and technology use. Survey data from 101 Graduate Business students revealed that online students reported significantly higher levels of technology-related anger, anxiety and helplessness. Furthermore, in comparison to their on-campus counterparts, online students more clearly separated their emotions in terms of programme achievement and technology use. Emotions related significantly to students’ perceived success for both programme achievement and technology use, and mediated the effects of control and value appraisals on perceived success.
