But the analytical toolbox of QCA does not include a parameter for the explanatory power of a single explanatory factor or “condition”. In this paper, we therefore reinterpret the Banzhaf power index, originally developed in cooperative game theory, to establish a goodness-of-fit parameter in QCA. The relative Banzhaf index we suggest measures the explanatory power of one condition averaged across all sufficient combinations of conditions. The paper argues that the index is especially informative in three situations that are all salient in international management and call for a context-sensitive analysis of single conditions, namely substantial limited diversity in the data, the emergence of strong INUS conditions in the analysis, and theorizing with contingency factors. The paper derives the properties of the relative Banzhaf index in QCA, demonstrates how the index can be computed easily from a rudimentary truth table, and explores its insights by revisiting selected papers in international management that apply fuzzy-set QCA. It finally suggests a three-step procedure for utilizing the relative Banzhaf index when the causal structure involves both contingency effects and configurational causation. }}, author = {{Haake, Claus-Jochen and Schneider, Martin}}, journal = {{Journal of International Management}}, keywords = {{Qualitative comparative analysis, Banzhaf power index, causality, explanatory power}}, number = {{2}}, publisher = {{Elsevier}}, title = {{{Playing games with QCA: Measuring the explanatory power of single conditions with the Banzhaf index}}}, volume = {{30}}, year = {{2024}}, } @book{54972, editor = {{Thommes, Kirsten and Iseke, Anja and Schneider, Martin}}, isbn = {{9783662688373}}, issn = {{2523-3637}}, publisher = {{Springer Berlin Heidelberg}}, title = {{{Digitales und prädiktives Kompetenzmanagement}}}, doi = {{10.1007/978-3-662-68838-0}}, year = {{2024}}, } @inbook{47675, author = {{Hellweg, Talea and Schneider, Martin}}, booktitle = {{The Digital Twin of Humans.

This chapter examines the potential and the risks of this development from an interdisciplinary perspective. It defines the ‘global digital twin’ of a human being as the sum of all digitally stored information and predictive knowledge about a person. It points out that, compared to the digital twin of a machine, the human global digital twin is far more complex because it comprises the genetic code and the biographic code of a person. The genetic code contains not only a simple ‘construction plan’ but also hereditary information, in a form that is difficult to read. The biographic code contains all other information that can be assembled about a person, which is obtained via data from cameras, microphones, or other sensors, as well as general personal information. When the growing wealth of information concerning the genetic code and the biographical code is properly utilised, insights from biology and the behavioural sciences may be used to predict personal events such as health problems, job resignations, or even crimes. Because our own interests and those of private firms are partly in conflict over the use of this powerful knowledge, it is still unclear whether the global digital twins of humans will become a liberating or disciplining force for citizens. On the one hand, human beings are not machines: They are aware of their digital twin and therefore are able to influence it throughout their lives. Because of their free will, human beings are in general difficult to predict. Dystopias of full control over individual behaviour are therefore unlikely to materialise. On the other hand, private firms are beginning to take advantage of the available digital twins of humans by monopolising data access and by commercialising predictive knowledge. This is problematic because, unlike machines, human beings cannot only benefit from but also suffer due to their digital twins as they attempt to shape their own lives. We illustrate these issues with some examples and arrive at two conclusions: It is in the public interest for people to be granted more property rights over their personal global digital twins, and publicly funded research needs to become more interdisciplinary, much like private firms that have already begun to perform interdisciplinary research.}}, author = {{Hellweg, Talea Davina and Schneider, Martin and Rückert, Ulrich and Harteis, Christian and Pilz, Sarah}}, booktitle = {{The Digital Twin of Human}}, title = {{{Who Will Own Our Global Digital Twin: The Power of Genetic and Biographic Information to Shape Our Lives}}}, year = {{2023}}, } @article{47670, abstract = {{PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to revisit the disastrous DaimlerChrysler AG takeover episode from 1998 to 2007 in order to arrive at a more comprehensive explanation of this and other merger and takeover failures based on institutional theory.Design/methodology/approachThe case study is based on various secondary sources of information and on the insights that one of the authors gained from working for 14 years in various positions for Daimler-Benz and DaimlerChrysler.FindingsDaimlerChrysler failed because top management made mistakes in trying to globalize the company. They were unable to realize possible synergies between the two companies, which brought complementary resources into the merger. Furthermore, they did not account for the institutional embeddedness of strategies when they adopted lean production globally, diffused the production system developed in Germany to other parts of the world and tried to implement a global stock enlisted in New York and Frankfurt. The underlying theoretical framework is relevant for other merger and acquisition cases. It features institutional embeddedness, path dependency and institutional arbitrage.Originality/valueThe paper develops an institutional perspective on DaimlerChrysler and on cross-border merger and acquisition failure more generally. The perspective is organized around the varieties-of-capitalism approach. This contribution is important because there is increasing dissatisfaction with the dominant explanation of cross-border merger and acquisition failure, which is based on the allegedly failed management of culture “clashes.”}}, author = {{Riach, John Rankin Wood and Schneider, Martin}}, issn = {{2059-5794}}, journal = {{Cross Cultural and Strategic Management}}, keywords = {{Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management, Strategy and Management, Sociology and Political Science, Cultural Studies, Business and International Management}}, number = {{3}}, pages = {{552--568}}, publisher = {{Emerald}}, title = {{{The DaimlerChrysler takeover failure revisited from a varieties-of-capitalism perspective}}}, doi = {{10.1108/ccsm-12-2020-0250}}, volume = {{29}}, year = {{2022}}, } @article{42776, abstract = {{AbstractThis paper examines how human and organizational factors need to be designed to achieve strong technological maturity of either the products or the production process.
