“…This will help produce culturally competent graduates ready for global collaborations. Institutions should leverage experiential learning opportunities, such as MOOCs and telecollaboration exchanges, to give students firsthand experience of global collaborations (O’Dowd, 2016; Amaral Féris et al , 2021). Such experiences can enhance students’ cultural exposure, communication skills, adaptability and relationship-building capabilities.…”

Purpose This study aims to examine the relationship between knowledge management and career development in an era characterized by high levels of youth unemployment and a demand for specialized skills. Despite the increasing transition to a knowledge-based economy, there is a significant gap between young people’s skills and career readiness, necessitating an in-depth analysis of the role of knowledge management at the individual, organizational and national levels. Design/methodology/approach The authors conducted a qualitative study using the theory-context-characteristics-methodology approach based on a systematic literature review. The authors created an ecological framework for reflecting on knowledge management and career development, arguing for a multidisciplinary approach that invites collaboration across sectors to generate innovative and reliable solutions. Findings This study presents a comprehensive review of the existing literature and trends, noting the need for more focus on the interplay between knowledge management and career development. It emphasizes the need for businesses to promote the acquisition, storage, diffusion and application of knowledge and its circulation and exchange to create international business human capital. Practical implications The findings may help multinational corporations develop managerial training programs and recruitment strategies, given the demand for advanced knowledge-based skills in the modern workspace. The study also discusses the influences of education, experience and job skills on business managers’ performance, guiding the future recruitment of talents. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this review is among the first to assess the triadic relationship between knowledge management, career development and the global unemployment crisis. The proposed multidisciplinary approach seeks to break down existing silos, thus fostering a more comprehensive understanding of how to address these ongoing global concerns.

“…A company has to allocate its crucial time and various human resources such as software developers, testers, designers and managers to implement the simplest feature on its website or app (Amaral Féris et al , 2021). Therefore, it is important for a company to know which of its features would deliver maximum profits and which ones would drive only marginal profits so as to use its resources optimally.…”

Purpose E-commerce companies use different types of dark patterns to manipulate choices and earn higher revenues. This study aims to evaluate and prioritize dark patterns used by e-commerce companies to determine which dark patterns are the most profitable and risky. Design/methodology/approach The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) prioritizes the observed categories of dark patterns based on the literature. Several corporate and academic specialists were consulted to create a comparison matrix to assess the elements of the detected dark pattern types. Findings Economic indicators are the most significant aspect of every business. Consequently, many companies use manipulative methods such as dark patterns to boost their revenue. The study revealed that the revenue generated by the types of dark patterns varies greatly. It was found that exigency, social proof, forced action and sneaking generate the highest revenues, whereas obstruction and misdirection create only marginal revenues for an e-commerce company. Research limitations/implications The limitation of the AHP study is that the rating scale used in the analysis is conceptual. Consequentially, pairwise comparisons may induce bias in the results. Practical implications This paper suggests methodical and operational techniques to choose the priority of dark patterns to drive profits with minimum tradeoffs. The dark pattern ranking technique might be carried out by companies once a year to understand the implications of any new dark patterns used. Originality/value The advantages of understanding the trade-offs of implementing dark patterns are massive. E-commerce companies can optimize their spent time and resources by implementing the most beneficial dark patterns and avoiding the ones that drive marginal profits and annoy consumers.

“…Por su parte, Zorrilla-Pacheco et al (2022), rescatan el mérito del ABP como una estrategia de enseñanzaaprendizaje, mediante la cual los estudiantes protagonizan su propio estudio. Este enfoque les permite desarrollar un proyecto como vía para aplicar los conocimientos adquiridos sobre un producto o proceso particular (Almulla, 2020;Amaral et al, 2021;Barbosa et al, 2022). Al mismo tiempo, ponen en práctica el sistema conceptual provisto y de esta forma pueden resolver problemas reales, determinados estos por el contexto en el cual se ubican (Barquero, 2020).…”

This text reviews the theoretical and contextual background that influenced the inclusion of a sequential proposal in subject 04056 of the Bachelor's Degree in Management Sciences at UNED-Costa Rica as a simulator mechanism of an indispensable reality to be approached investigatively by the students. The aim is to develop epistemological skills following the Pedagogical Model established by this educational institution. In this way, it is clear the existence of a theoretical background that reaffirms the value of Project Based Learning. However, its practicality and impact lie in the fact that it needs to be delineated (technically and instrumentally) from the contour of Management Sciences and not only replicating what has been achieved from other social sciences. This is insofar as the aim is to effectively train researching and innovative people capable of understanding and having a positive impact on the organizational, national, or international environment in which they are inserted.
