Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The current business environment brings new challenges in business, management, and economics. With the rapid advancement of technology, businesses face the challenge of adapting to digital transformation. This includes incorporating automation, artificial intelligence, and big data analytics into their processes to stay competitive and efficient. Rapid changes in consumer behavior require companies to adapt their marketing strategies, product offerings, and customer experience to meet evolving consumer expectations. Overall, globalization has increased competition among businesses. Companies need to develop strategies to navigate global markets, manage cross-cultural challenges, and identify opportunities for growth. There is a need to foster a culture of innovation, identify emerging trends, and adapt the strategies to stay ahead of the competition. Managing global supply chains is becoming increasingly complex. Businesses face challenges such as optimizing inventory, reducing lead times, ensuring supplier reliability, and addressing risks such as natural disasters, geopolitical conflicts, or supply chain disruptions. Economic volatility and uncertainty present challenges for enterprises in planning and decision-making. Factors such as changing interest rates, trade policies, and geopolitical events can significantly impact market conditions, making it difficult to forecast and mitigate risks. An increasing awareness of environmental issues has put pressure on the adoption of sustainable practices, and balancing sustainability with profitability remains a challenge for many organizations.
This Special Issue is thus focused on the current challenges in interconnected fields playing crucial roles in the success and sustainability of organizations and economies. Theoretical and empirical papers dealing with any challenges in business, management, and economics are welcome.
