Book Synopsis Crisis Management, CSR, and Crisis Communication in the Volkswagen Emissions Scandal by : Marco Hölzel
Download or read book Crisis Management, CSR, and Crisis Communication in the Volkswagen Emissions Scandal written by Marco Hölzel and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2017 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,3, University of Cumbria, language: English, abstract: The purpose of this research is to examine the crisis management and crisis communication of the German car company Volkswagen (VW) in its recent emissions scandal. This study aims to analyse the applied crisis management and communication strategies of Volkswagen by evaluating the crisis ́ impact on each stakeholder group. To accomplish this, the research adopts a single case study design, and it considers a significant amount of qualitative, secondary data. The research first notes that Volkswagen failed in its crisis management prevention tactics, as it was unable to detect the crisis at an early stage. Moreover, the study reveals that VW implemented several immediate crisis management measures for a quick turnaround management. Instead of concentrating on a specific crisis response theory, it is evident that VW made use of different crisis response strategies. VW took full responsibility for the crisis, promising transparency, but it also shifted the blame onto a small group of employees, suggesting that the company was also the victim of human error. Finally, the study reveals the significant impact of the crisis on each stakeholder group, which reveals that VW struggled to regain stakeholder trust and did not keep its promise of transparency. Thus, the study concludes by presenting future recommendations for Volkswagen in order to rebuild trust and avoid similar crises from occurring in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, grade: 1,2, language: English, abstract: In 2007 the Volkswagen group with its headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany sold 6,191,618 vehicles worldwide and 329,305 employees generated a sales revenue of 108,897,000 with an operating profit of 6,151,000 which in turn resulted in a profit after tax of 4,122,000 .1 The group is divided into two divisions, namely the automotive one, accounting for 91% of total revenues plus the financial one, contributing 9% to the total turnover. Within the automotive sector, the company markets its vehicles under brands like, VW passenger cars, Audi, Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini, Seat and Skoda. In 1984, Volkswagen as the first western auto maker, began its operational activity in China. When it entered the market it had to form a joint venture with a Chinese company to produce cars. By now the group has thirteen representative companies. Due to its early engagement in the biggest Asian market, it reached a leading position which despite some previous challenges lasted until today. For example, the corporation sold 910,000 vehicles (VW + Audi) in Hong Kong as well as in the mainland of China which resulted in a market share of 17.8% in 2007.2 Therefore, China is (yet) after Germany the second most important market for Volkswagen, representing almost 15% of the company car sales. In the following international marketing plan, the author will describe how to increase car sales and boost market share up to 20% over the next 2 years with the introduction of a new small light weight hybrid car, the Volkswagen Cotha. ...]

This new volume provides a broad view of strategy covering the conventional as well as less mainstream alternatives like the growing strategy-as-practice perspective. It also does a great job of providing balanced critiques of the existing orthodoxy and provides explicit connections to some of the more accessible academic articles providing more depth to the arguments presented. All in all, it is an excellent break from the unfortunate tendency to make strategy a narrow economic enterprise in a world that is far more complex and social than that. Strategy: Theory and Practice is a welcome addition to the available texts on strategy" - Nelson Phillips, Professor of Strategy and Organizational Behaviour Co-Editor, Journal of Management Inquiry "A super and overdue book. It embraces the central importance of organization theory and, especially, the play of power and politics both inside and outside the organization. This erudite, almost polemical book promises to redraw how we approach the study of strategy - and not before time!" - Royston Greenwood, Associate Dean, School of Business, University of Alberta "It explains where strategy originates from and how contemporary ideas and practices facilitate or constrain decision-making and action. In particular, this book illuminates the role of power and politics in strategy - an issue that has been overlooked in most textbooks in this area. Enjoyable and inspiring reading for students, researchers and practitioners" - Eero Vaara, Professor of Management and Organization Dean of Research Hanken School of Economics, Helsinki "The authors have managed to produce a unique and admirable combination of critical external engagement with 'strategy', understood as a complex object of organizational and political construction, and a useable insiders text book rich in illustrative cases. As such it is essential reading for academics, students and practitioners - all of whom will discover how theory and practice are more intertwined than they ever imagined" - Michael Power, Professor of Accounting, London School of Economics and Political Science

Book Synopsis International Marketing Management by : Ralph Berndt
Download or read book International Marketing Management written by Ralph Berndt and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-23 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For every company that is active internationally, a systematically operated cross-national marketing management is indispensable in order to secure its own existence in the long term. The rapid changes on many markets and in many countries also mean that professional information gathering and processing of market-relevant data must take place within the framework of international market research. Based on this data, market-oriented decisions have to be made within international marketing management in order to achieve operational goals. This book deals not only with the "classic" topics of international marketing, such as international market research and the international use of individual marketing instruments, but also with the various management sub-functions of planning, controlling, organization and human resources management in internationally active companies, each with a specific reference to marketing in the sense of market-oriented corporate management. The theoretically presented correlations are enriched by current data on the relevant framework conditions on international markets, empirical findings on the individual fields of action of international marketing management as well as numerous current examples from entrepreneurial practice. With this comprehensive presentation of international marketing management, the authors address lecturers and students as well as practitioners who deal with marketing issues in an international context.
