Publikation Does board composition taking account of sustainability expertise influence ESG ratings? An exploratory study of European banks(Springer, 2021) Waterstraat, Silke; Kustner, Clemens; Koch, Maximilian; Gerber, Aurona; Hinkelmann, Knut04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Modelling Transformation of Corporate Communications in the Digital Age(Springer, 2021) Göldi, Susan; Kraft, Corin; Vitacco, Jacqueline; Gerber, Aurona; Hinkelmann, KnutThis article provides a brief overview on transformative trends in corporate communications based on a literature review. Furthermore, it presents a framework model on how to transform corporate communications in the digital age. The model is based on a grounded theory approach derived in a field study completed in 2015, which claims that more heterarchical structures in corporate communications are needed. In a subsequent project, the model is tested in an ongoing exploratory study. Based on the learnings from the two studies, we suggest a new model on how to organize corporate communications in the digital age. At the center of the new model are written and audio-visual content, created by associates in a collaborative process and supported by the organization.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Design parameters of multidimensional reward system based on preference analysis of students of business information systems at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland(Springer, 2021) Heimsch, Fabian; Lüthi, Erhard; Gerber, Aurona; Hinkelmann, KnutIn Switzerland, there is currently a major shortage of skilled workers in many companies and organisations. A particular bottleneck can be seen in the area of IT professions. The lack of qualified employees is a challenge for future education and training and intensifies the current competition for today's necessary and urgently sought talent in the IT sector. In this context, it will be crucial in the future how attractive and individualized compensation systems can be designed for potential employees. Needs-based compensation packages should help to attract and ultimately retain future IT professionals. The aim of this study is to measure the preferences of students of business informatics at the FHNW to analyse which elements of total rewards management are crucial for the choice of a future employer. The results will help companies optimise the total rewards system according to their needs or include those factors that can be expected to provide the best benefits for future employees. Thus, not only the total monetary value, but also the composition of financial and non-financial elements must be included in this overall consideration.The aim is to provide decision-makers in organisations with targeted information that will allow them to design optimal incentive packages to be an attractive employer for students of business informatics or potential employees in the informatics field.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Proceedings of the Society 5.0 Conference 2022 - Integrating digital world and real world to resolve challenges in business and society(EasyChair, 2022) Hinkelmann, Knut; Gerber, Aurona03 - SammelbandPublikation Flexible workforce management. An exploratory study(Open Education Platform, 2021) Vogel, Christoph; Schaltegger, Christina; Zölch, Martina; Gerber, Aurona; Hinkelmann, KnutA flexible workforce is a key competitive advantage to deal with a constantly changing environment, such as order fluctuations and filling knowledge gaps due to a shortage of skilled staff. So far, only few empirical results are available on how companies successfully manage the “Flexible Workforce”. In the present exploratory study, we examine the flexible workforce practice and management in Swiss organisations using a quantitative approach. Data were collected through an online survey, in which 224 HR professionals of Swiss companies took part. The results suggest that organisations engaging in a flexible workforce benefit from outcomes like dealing with peaks in workload, filling knowledge gaps, implementation of new ideas and succession planning. The extent to which companies can benefit from the use of a flexible workforce depends, among other things, on the complexity of the tasks and organisational characteristics such as the culture of trust and the practice of knowledge management.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Practice track: a learning tracker using digital biomarkers for autistic preschoolers(2022) Sandhu, Gurmit; Kilburg, Anne; Martin, Andreas; Pande, Charuta; Witschel, Hans Friedrich; Laurenzi, Emanuele; Billing, Erik; Hinkelmann, Knut; Gerber, AuronaPreschool children, when diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), often ex- perience a long and painful journey on their way to self-advocacy. Access to standard of care is poor, with long waiting times and the feeling of stigmatization in many social set- tings. Early interventions in ASD have been found to deliver promising results, but have a high cost for all stakeholders. Some recent studies have suggested that digital biomarkers (e.g., eye gaze), tracked using affordable wearable devices such as smartphones or tablets, could play a role in identifying children with special needs. In this paper, we discuss the possibility of supporting neurodiverse children with technologies based on digital biomark- ers which can help to a) monitor the performance of children diagnosed with ASD and b) predict those who would benefit most from early interventions. We describe an ongoing feasibility study that uses the “DREAM dataset”, stemming from a clinical study with 61 pre-school children diagnosed with ASD, to identify digital biomarkers informative for the child’s progression on tasks such as imitation of gestures. We describe our vision of a tool that will use these prediction models and that ASD pre-schoolers could use to train certain social skills at home. Our discussion includes the settings in which this usage could be embedded.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Platform-based strategic consulting for digital transformation(2022) Gatziu Grivas, Stella; Giovanoli, Claudio; Grasshoff, Gunnar; Imhof, Denis; Hinkelmann, Knut; Gerber, AuronaThe digital age poses manifold challenges and difficult conditions for all sizes of organizations in all industries. Organizations need to adapt to complex challenges and difficult conditions and to plan and execute their digital transformation strategies. More and more organizations need support by strategic business consulting companies which must be offered in an effective and efficient way so that also small and medium sized companies can profit from it to stay competitive. Our research work focusses on the development of online strategic consulting tools offered as self-services on a web-based platform supporting the definition of digital transformation strategy. The so-called Digital Backpack Assessment (DBA) measures the digital maturity and proposes possible cases for changes. The tool follows the following principles: (1) A holistic approach with focus on the customer orientation, the business models, the organizational excellence, and the operational excellence. (2) An open strategy approach where several stakeholders from the company participate04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation A cyber attack simulation for teaching cybersecurity(2023) Scherb, Christopher; Heitz, Luc; Grimberg, Frank; Grieder, Hermann; Maurer, Marcel; Gerber, Aurona; Hinkelmann, KnutWith the rising number of cyberattacks, such as ransomware attacks and cyber espionage, educating non-cybersecurity professionals to recognize threats has become more important than ever before. However, traditional training methods, such as phishing awareness campaigns, training videos and assessments have proven to be less effective over time. Therefore, it is time to rethink the approach on how to train cyber awareness. In this paper we suggest an alternative approach -- a serious game -- to educate awareness for common cyberattacks. While many serious games for cybersecurity education exist, all follow a very similar approach: showing people the effects of a cyber attack on their own system or company network. For example, one of the main tasks in these games is to sort out phishing mails. We developed and evaluated a new type of cybersecurity game: an attack simulator, which shows the entire setting from a different perspective. Instead of sorting out phishing mails the players should write phishing mails to trick potential victims and use other forms of cyberattacks. Our game explains the intention of each attack and shows the consequences of a successful attack. This way, we hope, players will get a better understanding on how to detect cyberattacks.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation From managing diversity to managing opportunity(Open Education Platform, 2021) Özdemir, Feriha; Gerber, Aurona; Hinkelmann, KnutCompanies with path-dependencies on trivial assumptions reach their limits in Society 5.0. Resilient and vital organizations need multiple reservoirs of competencies, i.e .their people’s capabilities. Furthermore, resilient organizations in hypermodernity depend on an ability to respond to rising complexity by enhancing their own inner variety and competencies. Society 5.0 is characterized by a huge amount of diversity, and is human-focused. This paper presents a human-centered approach, the Capability Approach, which is conceptualized as a developed approach to Diversity Management. This paper goes beyond the classical diversity discourse, outlining an approach to Managing Opportunities in Society 5.0 that contributes toward the SDGs and Capability Management, introducing the Capability Cycle as a process for managing opportunities for dialogue-orientated communication. An economy designed for people requires a new diversity discourse − because the right to development is an inalienable human right.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation Synchronous hybrid classroom in continuing education – Tackling challenges of exchange and networking(Open Education Platform, 2021) Jansen, Anne; Rother, Timna; Gerber, Aurona; Hinkelmann, KnutDigitalization is changing work content, jobs, and processes, making lifelong learning and investment in further education increasingly important. At the same time, it opens new opportunities for providers of continuing education programs by digitalizing teaching/learning settings. In a synchronous hybrid classroom, a video conferencing system enables simultaneous on-site and remote participation. Thus, this format offers potential for continuing education through the freedom to choose from where to participate in the class-room. Continuing education participants are often very busy at work and/or with care obligations and could therefore benefit from local flexibility through remote teaching. However, it is the exchange and networking opportunities that many participants expect from continuing education and which have so far usually been realized through face-to-face interaction. The implementation of synchronous hybrid teaching is associated with several challenges. Beside challenges of technological implementation and the demands on technical and didactical skills of the lecturers, there is a risk that the exchange and networking between participants will suffer. This paper develops key research questions regarding the future design of synchronous hybrid classrooms especially for the target group of continuous education participants. Different methods are presented, with which the necessary evidence could ideally be obtained.04B - Beitrag Konferenzschrift
