Opis: Due to the development of technology, production and other business functions, customers have entered in the focus of enterprises’ endeavours, displacing mass-produced standardized products. Efficiency is no longer sufficient: flexibility, creativity and innovation have become vital. Creativity and innovation processes started to be studied, first at the level of individuals and then within organizations. It became obvious that creativity and innovation depend on individuals themselves and, within social units, also on their organisation. From the organisational point of view, practitioners and researchers attempt to determine the organisational variables that positively influence creativity. In this paper, the authors describe both the process and characteristics of creativity and innovation conducted by an autonomous individual as well as the same process conducted by members of a social unit. The appropriate organisation supporting the development of a creative and innovative social unit is established by management whose responsibility is to assure a rational achievement of new useful ideas and their development into products, services and processes. Therefore, the authors focus on three processes, emphasizing their relationships: individual creativity and innovation processes, organizational creativity and innovation processes, and the management of creativity and innovation.

Opis: This paper presents a comparison of the two studies conducted in Slovenian and Croatian micro-enterprises (µE) about the awareness of the cloud computing (CC). We were interested in the issues relating to the characteristics of µE and the latter's use of information and communication technology (ICT) in business processes. Also, the characteristics of owners and µE were investigated. We found that the results obtained in the two countries were similar. In both cases, the most important CC characteristics were reliability, security and performance. Given that CC could represent a good business opportunity for µE, some managerial implications are proposed.

Opis: Raziskovalno vprašanje (RV): Kakšno je udejstvovanje voditeljev pri dejavnikih voditeljstva v slovenskem visokem šolstvu (VŠ) in kakšna je možnost vpeljave modela EFQM v celotno slovensko VŠ? Namen: Namen prispevka je proučiti udejstvovanje voditeljev pri dejavnikih voditeljstva v slovenskem VŠ in uvajanje modela EFQM v slovensko VŠ ter nakazati možne usmeritve za izboljšanje stanja. Metoda: Prispevek temelji na teoretičnem in empiričnem delu. Teoretični del zajema analizo in kritično presojo obravnavanega koncepta kakovosti in voditeljstva. Empirični del temelji na kvalitativni raziskavi. Za pridobivanje podatkov je bil uporabljen spletni intervju. Raziskava je bila izvedena z voditelji visokošolskih zavodov (VZ) v slovenskem javnem in zasebnem VŠ. Rezultati: Ključna ugotovitev, ki izhaja iz raziskave se navezuje na nerazumevanje koristi, ki jih model poslovne odličnosti in ustrezno voditeljstvo prinese visokošolskemu zavodu (VZ). Ugotovitve kažejo, da slovenski visokošolski prostor še ni pripravljen za učinkovito izvajanje modela EFQM. Organizacija: Rezultati raziskave ponujajo vodstvu VZ koristno informacijo o tem, na kaj morajo biti pozorni za prehod slovenskega VŠ iz obstoječih sistemov kakovosti na model EFQM. Družba: Raziskava prikazuje zavedanja in spremembe, ki so po mnenju voditeljev slovenskih VŠ potrebne za vpeljavo sprememb na področju voditeljstva v slovenskem VŠ in posledično za vpeljavo modela EFQM v celotno slovensko VŠ, kar bi lahko prispevalo k celovitemu dvigu zavesti in kakovosti v celotnem slovenskem VŠ. Originalnost: Raziskava izvirno in celovito prikazuje in pojasnjuje voditeljstvo VZ in kakovost, odličnost ter ugled slovenskega VŠ, prav tako pa dopolnjuje dosedanje ugotovitve na obravnavanem področju. Omejitve/nadaljnje raziskovanje: Raziskava je omejena na spoznanja o trenutnem stanju voditeljstva v slovenskem VŠ in predstavlja osebna mnenja in poglobljene vpoglede sodelujočih v raziskavi. Prav tako pa raziskava predstavlja izhodišče za nadaljnja raziskovanja, na primer raziskovanje mnenj zunanjih udeležencev VŠ.

Opis: Rapid involvement of Internet infrastructure and services brought a lot of new products based on information and communication technologies. In the focus of world's social interest at this time are social networks and WikiLeaks and their abuse. In this paper authors analyze opinions and behaviour of students at Novi Sad Business School, Serbia, and Faculty of Organizational Sciences in Kranj, Slovenia. This research focuses on different kinds of abuse of social networks and WikiLeaks. Results are presented and analyzed according to the place where examinees study. Conclusions about the differences found between the above-mentioned two groups are compared to the social states and events in these 2 countries which officially separated 25 years ago.

Opis: The relation between entrepreneurship and unemployment has been an interesting topic for researchers for quite some time. In the time of global recession and mass layoffs different countries try to stimulate their residents to work on their ideas and to test themselves on the open market using various forms of subsidizing. It is important to point out that entrepreneurship does not constitute such a social security as employment in large companies. Entrepreneurship is not just a mixture of ideas, desires for success and a trend away from employment, integration with the right business partners and the issues of obtaining the initial capital, but largely also depends on the laws in each country and the infrastructure which this country offers. Countries with better entrepreneurial infrastructure (technology parks, university incubators, etc.) are definitely more open to competition and entrepreneurial activities than others. Globally interesting and internationally comparable study made each year by GEM (Global Entrepreneurship Monitor) (2008) notes that more and more people around the world are dealing with entrepreneurship. Schools for entrepreneurship are an important link between theoretical knowledge and practical involvement in the market. The international economic crisis has further accelerated the flow of restructuring, while unemployment continues to rise. It is therefore necessary to adopt measures that will help people with self-employment and, ultimately, in achieving a dignified life. Our contribution will be built on the hypothesis that where there is a higher rate of unemployment, more people will transit into entrepreneurship and where there is a higher rate of entrepreneurship there will be a lower level of unemployment. To test our hypothesis we will use available data from different countries and measure the correlations between the rate of entrepreneurship and the rate of unemployment and make a regression analysis of both values.
