the transition to an innovative economy as a Strategic Imperative
Graph Drawing, 2019Co-Authors: Ravil M Nurtdinov, Albert R Nurtdinov, N K GabdrakhmanovAbstract:Abstract. This paper discusses innovation as the key to economic growth, an assessment of the innovation sphere, and justified way innovative activities of economic subjects. The experience of industrialized countries shows conclusively that sustained economic growth in modern conditions is not the result of primitive production capacity factors, but their improvement and development on the basis of scientific and technological progress and innovation. To examine the strategy of Russia's development we must take into account that new trends fundamentally alter our understanding of the mechanisms of economic growth. Russia must solve both its tactical problems and seek answers to new challenges in order to ensure gradual, phased transition from the old inertial, natural-resource growth model to a predominantly innovative type of development. In this article as a hypothesis put forward the following points: innovation sphere Russia is experiencing a deep crisis; the key problem in the way of innovation activity in the country is the lack of effective mechanisms for funding research and development. Keywords: Innovation factor of economic growth, innovation financing, political financing, encouraging innovative activity, capital flight foreign investment.

a Strategic Imperative for promoting hospital branding analysis of outcome indicators
The Journal of medical research, 2020Co-Authors: Gowjen Shieh, Shiliang Wu, Chefu Tsai, Chisen Chang, Tsunghung Chang, Wayne Hueyherng SheuAbstract:BACKGROUND: Optimizing the use of social media to promote hospital branding is important in the present digital era. In Taiwan, only 51.1% of hospitals have official Facebook fan pages. The numbers of likes for these hospitals are also relatively low. OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to establish a special branding team for social media operation, led by top administrators of our hospital. Here we present our Strategic Imperative for promoting hospital branding as well as an analysis of its effectiveness. METHODS: Led by top administrators, the branding team was formed by 11 divisions to create branding strategies. From 2016 to 2018, the team implemented action plans. All information unique to the hospital was posted on Facebook, as well as on the hospital's official website. To determine the plans' efficiencies, we obtained reference data from Google Analytics, and we compared Facebook Insights reports for 2016 with those for 2017 and 2018. RESULTS: One of the branding team's main missions was to establish branding strategies and to integrate segmental branding messages. In each quarter we regularly monitored a total of 52 action plan indicators, including those for process and outcome, and discussed the results at team meetings. We selected 4 main performance outcome indicators to reflect the effectiveness of the branding efforts. Compared with 2016, the numbers of likes posted on the Facebook fan page increased by 61.2% in 2017 and 116.2% in 2018. Similarly, visits to the hospital website increased by 4.8% in 2017 and 33.1% in 2018. Most Facebook fan page and website viewers were in 2 age groups: 25 to 34 years, and 35 to 44 years. Women constituted 60.42% (14,160/23,436) of Facebook fans and 59.39% (778,992/1,311,605) of website viewers. According to the Facebook Insights reports, the number of likes and post sharing both increased in 2017 and 2018, relative to 2016. Comment messages also increased from 2016 to 2018 (P=.02 for the trend). The most common theme of posts varied over time, from media reports in 2016, to innovative services in both 2017 and 2018. Likes for innovative services posts increased from 2016 through 2018 (P=.045 for the trend). By the end of 2018, we recorded 23,436 cumulative likes for posts, the highest number among medical centers in Taiwan. CONCLUSIONS: We achieved the largest number of Facebook fans among all medical centers in Taiwan. We would like to share our experience with other hospitals that might be interested in engaging in social media for future communications and interactions with their patients.

form follows function interorganizational networks as a Strategic Imperative for global strategies
Global Strategy Journal, 2011Co-Authors: Arvind ParkheAbstract:P&G's global networks are the platform for the activities that, together, constitute the connect-and-develop strategy. (Huston and Sakkab, 2006: 62). The main goal of any global strategy must be to manage the large differences that arise at borders, whether those borders are defined geographically or otherwise . . . Not all integration that is required to add value across borders needs to occur within a single organization. IBM and other firms illustrate that some externalization is a key part of most ambitious global strategies. (Ghemawat, 2007: 67).
