Article Internet Search Volume and Stock Return Volatility: the Case of Turkish Companies(IFRD, 2014) Son-Turan, SemenThis study analyzes the relationship of the volatility of stock returns and internet search volume (ISV). The dataset consists of 10 Turkish companies listed on the BIST-100 Index of Borsa Istanbul, and encompasses the period between January 2004-September 2013. The GARCH (1,1) model is applied with two alternative mean specifications. The use of the novel exogenous variable ISV as proxy for investor sentiment is complemented through the inclusion of trading volume.Results show that as the GARCH (1,1) model becomes increasingly nested, volatility persistence declines with however no case of a vanishing G(ARCH) effect.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 31Financial Innovation-Crowdfunding: Friend or Foe?(Elsevier, 2015) Son-Turan, SemenA phenomenon with a considerable past, and with new conspicuous investment models and financial products and servicesproliferated through the Internet; financial innovation seems to be almost ubiquitous these days. While there are numerousadvantages, especially nowadays through the exploitation of easily accessible, low cost and convenient e-commerce platforms,innovation in the finance sector does not come without its perils. Banks and traditional financial institutions are losing chunks ofmarket share to virtual intermediaries and investors are operating in relatively less regulated and, consequently, less secureenvironments. Furthermore, from the perspective of all stakeholders, there is a Knightian uncertainty component of the long-termramifications in investing in and through newly developed products and platforms. As such, it is only recently that economichistory witnessed the outbreak of the sub-prime mortgage crisis caused by the unraveling of a chain of events interlinked throughthe imprudent use of “innovative” derivative transactions involving credit default swaps backed by the insatiable appetite of the“irrationally exuberant” investor and the easement of regulation paving the leeway for predatory lending. This paper investigateswhether and to what extent innovative investment models such as crowdfunding, as the game-changer, forcing the tightlyregulated securities markets to adapt to the rules of the WEB 3.0 era and relieved through the provision, Title III, of the JOBSAct, could be a potential peril. To that end, it discusses the evolution of the equity crowdfunding model in the realm of thetechnology push - demand pull framework and analyzes the current situation of the market.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 5Where Do We Go From Here? Is Responsibility Sustainable?(2015) Wegge, Juergen; Pearce, Craig L.In this special issue we have brought together a veritable ‘‘dream team’’ of thought leaders, and rising stars, from academia, consulting and the c-suite to address the ‘‘Leadership Imperative for Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility.’’ Clearly, the decisions and actions of individual leaders matter to the social performance and long-term viability of their organizations. Ultimately, activities such as formulating sustainability policies, engaging in community outreach programs, supporting social causes, or seeking alternatives to disruptive layoffs are the result of managerial decisions, and so are activities that are widely considered unethical, such as bribery, fraud, environmental pollution, and employment discrimination. While corporate executives are constrained in their ability to engage in these activities by corporate governance regulations, company policies, and the law, they have some degree of discretion in their choices. David Waldman, a noted leadership scholar, put it succinctly:‘‘Firms do not make decisions pertaining to responsibility or CSR; leaders do."Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 3Developmental Health Services Leadership: Integrating Hierarchical and Shared Leadership for Health Services Organizational Learning(2015) Pearce, Craig L.The purpose of this article is to articulate a model of, as well as a call to action for, health services leadership, with a particular emphasis on the role of health services leadership in organizational learning. More specifically, I articulate a model that poses two antecedents of health services hierarchical leadership-leader responsibility disposition and environmental cues-as important predictors of empowering leadership. In turn, I assert that empowering leadership from above will engender an inclination toward shared leadership among followers. Subsequently, I venture that both empowering hierarchical leadership and shared leadership are precursors of health services organizational learning. I specify several research directions for future scholarship. More importantly, I identify multiple measures that policy makers and practitioners can take to enhance health services leadership and organizational learning.Conference Object Conference Object Designing a Sustainable Alumni Fundraising System for Turkish Universities(2015) Son Turan, Semen...Book Part Strategic Working Capital Management in Small and Medium Sized Businesses(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2015) Karadağ, Hande...Book Part Strategic Financial Planning and Forecasting in Small and Medium Sized Businesses(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2015) Karadağ, Hande...Book Part Strategic Financial Reporting and Control in Small and Medium Sized Businesses(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2015) Karadağ, Hande...Book Part Strategic Capital Structure Management in Small and Medium Sized Businesses(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2015) Karadağ, HandeStrategic CapitalStructureManagement in Smalland Medium Sized businessesFormulation and implementation of strategic decisions have a cru-cial importance for every element of the financial managementprocess.

While early 1990s e-business research grounded in ICT (information communication technology) theories covered topics such as, internal systems capabilities, adoption, and technology investments' impact on success, the new millennium with the dot. com crash, witnessed a flux of interest in performance management, value creation and strategy formulation. Related intellectual capital literature grew, accompanied by technology mergers and acquisitions underscoring the need for valuing. digital capital.. This entire technological craze in adopting to change is necessitating the adoption of a futuristic vision on part of professionals and academicians. This paper attempts to offer a roadmap for interdisciplinary scholars by providing insight of what has been studied so far in e-business research, what topics face extinction due to technological advancement and what the future beholds for us in this realm. Its distinctiveness lies in its use of an integrated methodology combining broad literature review (spanning through the almost two decade-long lifetime of e-business literature between the years 1995-2013) and content analysis of 41 global e-business events organized by prominent academic and professional institutions in 2013. The trilingual (Turkish, English and German) keyword search process used in reaching current event information and the translation of such into English, may spearhead future studies of this kind. To the best of the knowledge at hand, this study is the first to provide a comprehensive literature review of past e-business research from a generalist perspective and utilize practitioners' event as a tool for forecasting future research topics.Article Citation - Scopus: 7Shared Leadership in Practice: When Does It Work Best?(Academy of Management, 2015) Pearce, Craig L.; Wassenaar, Christina L.Leadership is generally thought to flowfromthe top to the bottom in organizations. In fact, a cursory glance at the popularpress shows very clearly that top organizational leaders—the Chief Executive Officer orManaging Director—are often glorified as being the brains behind the success of the entire organization (e.g., Ray Kroc ofMcDonald’s, Bill Gates ofMicrosoft) or vilified as the cause of an organization’s downfall (e.g., Kenneth Lay of Enron). A look behind the scenes, however, shows a far more complex situation.Book Part A Strategic Management Approach To Financial Management Practices in Small and Medium Sized Businesses(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2015) Karadağ, Hande...Editorial Strategic Financial Management for Small and Medium Sized Companies Conclusion(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd., 2015) Karadağ, Hande...Article Citation - WoS: 42Citation - Scopus: 49Sharing Is Caring: Toward a Model of Proactive Caring Through Shared Leadership(2015) Manz, Charles C; Courtright, Stephen; Pearce, Craig L; Houghton, Jeffery D; Stewart, Greg LIn this paper we address an age-old expression - "sharing is caring." We offer a model and propositions suggesting that shared leadership proactively increases group-level caring and ultimately group-level performance within organizations through two key mediating mechanisms - psychological empowerment climate and group solidarity. In addition, we identify collaborative capacity and collaborative context as two potential moderators of the relationships between shared leadership and the two mediators. We conclude by exploring the implications of our model for both research and practice. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc.

We are simultaneously on the edge of unprecedented wealth creation and catastrophic implosion, as a result of many geopolitical forces. On the one hand, the financial crisis precipitated mainly by events in the United States, and the ripple effects throughout Europe and the rest of the world are slowly coming under control. Yet, at the same time, much of the world is restive. Sub- Saharan Africa, particularly Nigeria, Niger, Cameron and Chad, are in de facto war with extremists intent on returning the region to the Stone Age. The same is true in Syria and the region around it, as we see various groups struggle for complete domination. In Eurasia, Russia has invaded, or threatened to invade multiple of its neighbors (e.g., Estonia, Georgia, Mol-dova, Ukraine). The Taliban is resurging, threatening peace and tranquility in but another beleaguered region.
