These proceedings represent the work of contributors to the 15th International Conference on Intellectual Capital, Knowledge Management & Organisational Learning (ICICKM 2018), hosted by The University of the Western Cape, Cape Town, South Africa on 29-30 November 2018. The Conference Chair is Prof. Shaun Pather and the Programme Co-Chairs are Dr. James Njenga and Dr. Carolien van den Berg, all from the University of the Western Cape. Conceptual frameworks, theories and models of intellectual capital management and knowledge management have been evolving for over two decades. Both academic researchers and practitioners have posited that their successful application benefits organizations by improving their operations, personnel management and strategy development. As such, ICICKM has become a well-established event on the academic research conference calendar. The conference is now in its 15th year and the key aim remains the opportunity for participants to share their research and associated ideas with a view of advancing the body of knowledge in the fields associated with ICICKM. The scope of papers will ensure an interesting two days of vigorous intellectual debate. The subjects covered illustrate the wide range of topics that fall into this important and ever-growing area of research. This year, given the advances in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, there are several papers that introspect the nexus of intellectual capital and that of knowledge management. The opening keynote presentation is given by Dr. Klaus North, from the Wiesbaden Business School, Germany on the topic of Knowledge Management in Digital Change. Then an afternoon keynote will be given by Dr Dan Remenyi, Extraordinary Professor at University of the Western Cape, on the subject When Machines get Smart. The second day of the conference will open with an address by Donovan Muller, Senior Executive: Western Cape, Zimele Technologies, South Africa who will talk about Information and Knowledge Management in the digital era: the key to evidence-based strategy and policy formulation in Local Government. With an initial submission of 140 abstracts, after the double blind, peer review process there are 42 Academic research papers, 5 PhD research papers, 2 Masters Research papers and 6 work-in-progress papers published in these Conference Proceedings. These papers represent research from Brazil, Austria, China, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Israel, Italy, Kenya, Nigeria, Pakistan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Slovakia, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, UAE, Uganda and the United Kingdom.

In today’s climate, academics, professional community and policy makers all have input in critical gender issues, as well as in the entrepreneurship and human capital issues. Various gender issues are published involving many scientific fields, including business, management and accounting research. Presenting the topic of gender issues, entrepreneurship and human capital, this book collects the main output of the researches presented at the Annual Workshop of IPAZIA 2019 of Rome in Italy. The authors provide a renewed and fruitful analysis of these topics, with the purpose of advancing the gender theories in the international context.
The book “Advances in Information and Communication Networks - Proceedings of the 2022 Future of Information and Communication Conference (FICC)” aims in presenting the latest research advances, sharing expert knowledge and exchanging ideas with the common goal of shaping the future of Information and Communication. The conference attracted 402 submissions, of which, 131 submissions (including six poster papers) have been selected through a double-blind review process by an international panel of expert referees. This book discusses on aspects of Communication, Data Science, Ambient Intelligence, Networking, Computing, Security and Internet of Things, from classical to intelligent scope. The intention is to help academic pioneering researchers, scientists, industrial engineers, and students become familiar with and stay abreast of the ever-changing technology surrounding their industry. We hope that readers find the volume interesting and valuable; it gathers chapters addressing state-of-the-art intelligent methods and techniques for solving real world problems along with a vision of the future research.
Although the transition between the first three industrial revolutions took more than a century, Industry 4.0 is progressing quickly. The emergence of digitalization has been rapid thanks to the development of cutting-edge technologies. Though we are witnessing this rapid technological decentralization and interconnectivity at present, organizations and researchers are already discussing Industry 5.0 where full integration of the human side of business and intelligent systems is expected. In this scenario, it is essential to look forward to such strategic workplaces that allow a combination of humans and technology to assure a high degree of automation merged with the cognitive skills of business leaders. Managing Technology Integration for Human Resources in Industry 5.0 provides insights into the impact of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 on human resources. It provides insights for both industry and academia to assist them in teaching and training the next generation leaders through universities and corporate training. Covering topics such as business performance, human technology integration, and digitalization, this premier reference source is an essential resource for human resource managers, IT managers, organizational executives and leaders, entrepreneurs, students and educators of higher education, librarians, researchers, and academicians.

This book provides an authoritative, inter-disciplinary, and up-to-date survey of relevant concepts, research areas, and applications of intellectual capital. Until now, the literature had lacked a comprehensive analysis of intellectual capital (IC) in regard to sustainability, block chain, and other related technologies and virtual environments. This book shows the importance of intellectual capital for contemporary organizations: how it contributes to theories of the firm, how it affects organizational performance, how is it linked with the organizational ambidexterity, how it connects to the technological developments like block chain and digital technologies, and what would be its association with sustainability. Central to our thesis is the systemic nature of intellectual capital in organizations: how intellectual capital interacts with and complements other organizational resources and developments. This book also shows as to how applying the notion of intellectual capital to organizations requires us to consider how intangible forms of capital differ from more traditional forms, implying the need for a theory of firm that accommodates a concept of dynamic, heterogeneous intellectual capital. Although a lot has been written on IC, this book proves to be the first with scholastic and action-oriented perspective on as to how a firm can manage its IC to create value. This book also demonstrates as to how the subjective aspects of IC can be measured and what can be their strategic implications. A discussion on IC disclosure also appears in the latter part of the book. In doing so, this book reveals as to how the value creation of today’s businesses is driven by the IC. This book also introduces the readers to the new application of IC and its association with the contemporary disruptive technologies. This is a book for IC researchers and academicians who want to understand the diverse aspects of IC, for business managers who want to be at the cutting edge, for those early in their careers who seek a challenging new path, and for the top-level managers of the world who have their eye on the future.
