University of Saint Joseph ER - TY - THES TI - Accounting in Macau: A Historical Perspective from 1970s until 2008 AU - Lam, Ching Chi A3 - Alves, José AB - The current research study embraced the objectives to investigate the transformation of accounting in Macau from the first set of accounting legislations in 1970s, through the first set of accounting standards in 1983, until a year after the first application of international accounting standards, by 2008. From the transformation, the role taken by accounting in the economy and the factors that have influenced the transformation were intended to identify. Through the historical picture, findings have supported and expanded the theoretical concepts that accounting was taking both active and passive roles in the economy. Furthermore, they also supported the theoretical concepts that culture, economic environment, political environment and education influenced the transformation of accounting. The objectives have been structured through three research issues identified from the analysis of past literatures. Five qualitative and quantitative research studies have been carried out, using primary and secondary data from both primary and secondary sources. In-depth interviews on 13 representative respondents of the government, the profession, the industry and the academia, directly or in-directly related with accounting have been done. A case study on a company doing business in Macau since 1970s was included to enrich, supplement and evaluate the findings on the accounting practice of Macau. Based on the findings, a model has been constructed that represented the interaction between accounting and the different factors of the economy. Contributions from the research findings have enriched the research literatures on the area of accounting history. Implications from the findings have generated better insights for the business and economic histories of Macau CY - Macau DA - 2011/// PY - 2011 DP - Library Catalog (Koha) SP - 272 LA - eng PB - University of Saint Joseph ST - Accounting in Macau UR - http://library-opac.usj.edu.mo/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=143138&query_desc=kw%2Cwrdl%3A%20Government%20Studies KW - PhD in Business Administration (D-BA) KW - Thesis and Dissertations KW - Thesis and Dissertations PhD in Business Administration (D-BA) KW - University of Saint Joseph ER - TY - THES TI - The challenges of ethnic foodservices business in Macau: an Indian restaurant case study AU - Khan, Muhammad Imran A3 - Alves, José DA - 2016/// PY - 2016 DP - Library Catalog (Koha) LA - eng ST - The challenges of ethnic foodservices business in Macau UR - http://library-opac.usj.edu.mo/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=143822&query_desc=an%3A20696 KW - Food service management KW - Macau KW - Theses and Dissertations Master of Business Administration (MBA) KW - University of Saint Joseph ER - TY - THES TI - Lusophone-African multinational enterprises internationalization mode: a case analysis of Angolan and Mozambican enterprises AU - Gonçalves, Marcus Vinicius Amaral A3 - Alves, José AB - Several internationalization theories have been developed over the past few decades that have made great contributions in explaining enterprise internationalization and their mode of entry strategy. It has been suggested that the determinants of entry mode choice of enterprises from emerging and frontier markets differ from those of comparable enterprises from advanced economies. Literature review appears to indicate that there is a need to expand the framework for entry mode strategies to accommodate the expansion issues enterprises from emerging and frontier countries face in the global marketplace. Nevertheless, not much information and acceptable conclusion has been made on how MNEs from frontier markets internationalize and what factors influence their choice of entry into those markets. This study investigated the internationalization strategies of Lusophone Africa MNEs from Angola and Mozambique, more specifically their entry mode. Information was gathered through a survey of 29 MNE’s upper management respondents and subsequent face-to-face semi-structured interviews with 24 of them in their countries. The results of this study suggest that most MNEs opted for equity-based investment strategies, mainly joint venture and M&E as their preferred mode of entry when internationalizing. A significant group of them opted for e- commerce/e-business strategies, and direct and indirect exports. A smaller portion of the interviewees chose Greenfield investment as a mode of entry. Many of these MNEs could be classified as born global/INV. Finally, this study presents a conceptual framework for use in studying the entry mode choice of enterprises from Lusophone Africa frontier markets and presents research propositions for better understanding the determinants of entry mode strategies of enterprise from Angola and Mozambique.

Studies in the field of family business have emphasized the importance of succession for the survival of family businesses, but while the succession process and planning have been widely studied, the examination of social capital succession is scarce. As for the studies in family business’s social capital, the importance of social capital as a source of competitive advantage which already exists in business families have often been expressed, but there is a lack of research in the means of transferring this form of capital from the family business leaders to their successors. The study presented here addresses this gap in family business succession literature and social capital literature, explaining the means of transgenerational succession of social capital in family businesses. This is a qualitative research using the multiple case study method which aims to investigate the means of social capital transmission by comparing the cases of five different Chinese family businesses in Macau, which are in the succession process, with the successor currently managing the firm while the former generation business leaders are in the process of handing over the business and preparing for retirement. In doing so, this research offers a theoretical framework of explaining how social capital is transmitted from the incumbents to the successors throughout a five-stage succession process developed for this research. The forms of social capital that exists in family businesses are identified from previous literature, in order to clearly explain how these different forms of social capital are passed on from generation to generation based on the review on succession process introduced in published literature. A theoretical iii framework is formed from the two parent theories on family business succession and social capital, and is then verified empirically from five Chinese family businesses in Macau. The cases are developed through in-depth interviews with the incumbents and successors of the family businesses, informal interviews with stakeholders (including family members, business associates, non-family employees and customers), direct observation on the premises of the Chinese family businesses and secondary data, in order to study the process of intergenerational transmission of social capital in these Chinese family businesses CY - Macau DA - 2018/// PY - 2018 PB - University of Saint Joseph UR - http://library-opac.usj.edu.mo/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=174068 KW - PhD in Business Administration (D-BA) KW - Thesis and Dissertations KW - University of Saint Joseph ER - TY - THES TI - Dutch Disease In Macau: Theoretical Modeling, Empirical Diagnosis And Treatments AU - Mieiro, Susana Margarida Baptista A3 - Alves, José CY - Macau DA - 2013/// PY - 2013 DP - Library Catalog (Koha) SP - 260 LA - eng PB - University of Saint Joseph ST - Dutch Disease In Macau UR - http://library-opac.usj.edu.mo/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=143157 KW - Dutch Disease KW - Macau ER - TY - THES TI - An exploratory study of Chinese rituals in street shops in Macau AU - Moreira, Irene Mitsiko Sadoyama A3 - Alves, José CY - Macau DA - 2016/// PY - 2016 DP - Library Catalog (Koha) SP - 70 LA - eng PB - University of Saint Joseph UR - http://library-opac.usj.edu.mo/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=143810&query_desc=an%3A20696 KW - Business ethics KW - China KW - Theses and Dissertations Master of Business Administration (MBA) KW - University of Saint Joseph ER - TY - THES TI - Financial flows and currency exchange in Mainland China in the foreign investor perspective AU - Rodrigues, Nuno Miguel Vieira A3 - Alves, José CY - Macau DA - 2014/// PY - 2014 DP - Library Catalog (Koha) SP - 178 LA - eng PB - University of Saint Joseph UR - http://library-opac.usj.edu.mo/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=172643&query_desc=an%3A20696 KW - Theses and Dissertations Master of Business Administration (MBA) KW - University of Saint Joseph ER - TY - THES TI - What Motivates Generation Y Employees in Macau: An Exploratory Study AU - Organo, Olen Royce Riesgo A3 - Alves, José CY - Macau DA - 2013/// PY - 2013 DP - Library Catalog (Koha) LA - eng PB - University of Saint Joseph ST - What Motivates Generation Y Employees in Macau UR - http://library-opac.usj.edu.mo/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=143841&query_desc=an%3A20696 KW - Employee motivation KW - Macau KW - Theses and Dissertations Master of Business Administration (MBA) KW - University of Saint Joseph ER - TY - BOOK TI - Succession in Chinese family business: transgenerational transmission of social capital in Macao AU - Phillips, Jenny O. L. T2 - USJ Theses and Dissertations AB - Macao is well known for its gaming industry. However, there are also many traditional small-to-medium enterprises which are family-owned and run. There is no doubt that social capital is one of the key competitive advantages that family businesses possess, particularly when it comes to Chinese businesses with strong family values that emphasize the importance of trustworthiness and guanxi (relationships). As opposed to other forms of capital, social capital cannot be passed from one generation to another through the will of the incumbents. So, how is social capital passed on in family businesses from one generation to the next? Based on an in-depth study of five cases of successful family businesses in Macao, this research identified the forms of social capital present in business families and the succession process of these firms. From the generalizations drawn from the five cases, a theoretical framework is proposed to understand the intergenerational transmission of social capital in Chinese family businesses CN - 658.8 CY - Macao DA - 2022/// PY - 2022 DP - Library Catalog (Koha) SP - 300 M1 - 4 PB - University of Saint Joseph ST - Succession in Chinese family business KW - China Macau (Special Administrative Region) KW - Family-owned business enterprises ER - TY - THES TI - Service quality in the public sector: an exploration in Macao's public service and information center AU - Sio Lameiras, Nga Man Maria A3 - Alves, José CY - Macau DA - 2010/// PY - 2010 DP - Library Catalog (Koha) PB - University of Saint Joseph ST - Service quality in the public sector UR - http://library-opac.usj.edu.mo/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=147931&query_desc=kw%2Cwrdl%3A%20Government%20Studies KW - Thesis and Dissertations Master of Government Studies (MGS) KW - University of Saint Joseph ER - TY - THES TI - Subjective Wellbeing And Quality of Work Life in Macau AU - Rato, Ricardo Jorge Parreira A3 - Alves, José A3 - Davey, Gareth CN - 658.95126 CY - Macau DA - 2013/// PY - 2013 DP - Library Catalog (Koha) SP - 185 LA - eng PB - University of Saint Joseph UR - http://library-opac.usj.edu.mo/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=143407 KW - China KW - Macau (Special Administrative Region) KW - Quality of life KW - Research ER - TY - JOUR TI - Transgenerational Entrepreneurship In Chinese Family Businesses: Proposal For A Model Of Work-Life Synergy AU - Phillips, Jenny O. L. AU - Osorio, Arturo E. AU - Alves, José AB - Family business are the dominant form of business in the world, and Chinese family business (CFB) is a unique type of family business that relies on collective action to survive. This paper argues that in CFBs, entrepreneurial actions are transgenerational collective endeavors, and successors are groomed as stewards of the family legacy. Work-life relationship in CFBs is about synergy and not balance because the family identity is the business identity, and vice-versa. Using five in-depth case studies, this research introduces an alternative understanding of CFBs and proposes a model of work-life synergy in transgenerational entrepreneurship based on discussion of five theory-based propositions. This model explains that through emphasizing on the business family's shared value and entrepreneurial legacy, elements of trust, shared identity and stewardship of family members are enhanced which leads to collective action and goal of the business family, resulting in transgenerational entrepreneurship. Limitations and future research are presented.

ER - TY - JOUR TI - EFFECTIVENESS ANALYSIS OF WATERFALL AND AGILE PROJECT MANAGEMENT METHODOLOGIES – A CASE STUDY FROM MACAU'S CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY AU - Marques, Joao Alexandre Lobo AU - Morais, João José Bragança dos Reis AU - Alves, José AU - Gonçalves, Marcus T2 - Revista Gestão em Análise AB - The adoption of project management techniques is a crucial decision for corporate governance in construction companies since the management of areas such as risk, cost, and communications is essential for the success or failure of an endeavor. Nevertheless, different frameworks based on traditional or agile methodologies are available with several approaches, which may create several ways to manage projects. The primary purpose of this work is to investigate the adequate project management methodology for the construction industry from a general perspective and consider a case study from Macau. The methodology considered semi-structured interviews and a survey comparing international and local project managers from the construction industry. The interviews indicate that most construction project managers still follow empirical methods with no specific methodology but consider the adoption of traditional waterfall approaches. In contrast, according to the survey, most project managers and construction managers agree that the project's efficacy needs to increase, namely in planning, waste minimization, communication increase, and focus on the Client's feedback. In addition, there seems to be a clear indication that agile methodology could be implemented in several types of projects, including hospitality development projects. A hybrid development approach based on the Waterfall and Agile methodologies as a tool for the project management area may provide a more suitable methodology for project managers to follow.

This strategic choice is preferred to avoid direct confrontation with established firms from developed countries endowed with superior ownership advantages. Therefore, Chinese resources seeking firms innovate by increasing investment in developing and emerging markets to develop unique ownership advantages for sustainable market development and competitive advantage. This research investigates the ownership advantages of resources seeking Chinese firms in these markets using the OLI theory. The paper contributes to explaining the specific advantages of Chinese MNEs when entering emerging markets. The study applied a two-stage qualitative methodology to examine Chinese firms operating in Nigeria. The first stage included an exploratory study based on interviews with key informants and experts while the second stage included a case study methodology. The study focused on resources seeking Chinese MNEs operating in Nigeria.
