“…We limited the search to OM journals recognised as the most respected internationally. To select journals, we combined the results of eight acknowledged journal rankings (Soteriou, Hadjinicola, and Patsia 1999;Barman, Hanna, and LaForge 2001;Gorman and Kanet 2005;Olson 2005; Holsapple and Lee-Post 2010; Meredith, Steward, and Lewis 2011;Petersen, Aase, and Heiser 2011;Fry and Donohue 2013) (details available from the authors upon request). Our procedure resulted in the inclusion of the following ten journals: We further limited the search to articles published between January 2000 and December 2017, starting where the work of Hope and Muhlemann (2001) stopped.…”

National culture has received a substantial amount of interest in the operations management literature. We present the first structured review of articles studying national culture in operations management. Our search returned 51 papers published in ten leading journals between 2000 and 2017. We sort and analyse the papers according to three focus areas of operations management (strategy, execution and improvement). We also analyse the papers according to whether they address the relevance of national culture, the impact of national culture or the actions managers can use to manage or mitigate the effects of national culture. We find that national culture appears as a relevant variable in all focus areas of operations management research but that the direction and strength of its impact remain undetermined. Only a handful of papers address how managers can actively deal with challenges related to national culture. We propose a research agenda and a guiding framework for future research.

“…The accounting profession is governed by many rigorous job requirements such as accounting regulations, reporting standards as well as the demands of the specific accounting jobs. Accounting students may have negative perceptions about these job requirements which may not reflect the reality (Fiske & Taylor, 2013;Meredith, Steward, & Lewis, 2011;J. Solomon, A. Solomon, Joseph, & Norton, 2013).…”

This paper examines the preconceived notions accounting students in Ghana have about the accounting profession and whether these perceptions are influenced by gender and student category (graduates and undergraduates). This study was a cross-sectional survey of 516 undergraduate and 78 graduate accounting students from a public university in Ghana. A self-administered structured questionnaire was developed to collect primary data. Data were analysed using SPSS 16.0.The results of this study show that, generally, both undergraduate and graduate accounting students have positive perceptions about accounting profession, contrary to most existing literature. Our findings indicate that despite the generally negative perception held by the public about accountants' behaviour, accounting students in Ghana do not share the same perception with the public. This study also found that gender influences the perception of both graduate and undergraduate accounting students, and few significant differences existed between graduate and undergraduate accounting students' perception of the profession. This research contributes to the academic debate surrounding the concerns of the future of accounting profession and its implications for contemporary accounting education in developing countries. It also provides knowledge to accounting educators in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) regarding areas of career orientation and training required to positively influence the perception of future accounting professionals in SSA and Ghana in particular. The limitations of this study are discussed to provide directions for future research.

“…Another classification of production and operations management journals were presented based on the publications of 90 researchers with a high index of studies published between 1980 and 2006 [55]. Other authors [56] used a survey conducted with accredited members of AACSB (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business) to identify the journals to which the members' studies were submitted. Fry and Donohue, for example, combined the results obtained in a data envelopment analysis (DEA) model [41].…”

The objective of this study was to analyze the main topics studied on the subject of modularization in 81 academic articles published between 1999 and 2013 in international and Brazilian journals that include research related to production and operations management. This analysis proposes a general framework of studies that serves as support for future research on modularization strategy. To fulfill the proposed objective, a systematic literature review was conducted using 10 international academic journals and two Brazilian academic journals that publish studies on the study topic. The main results include identifying the lack of studies on the background that leads to modularization, the lack of empirical and quantitative studies on its effects, and the use of modularization in the organizational, service, and environmental contexts. The present study also organizes modularization studies in the proposed conceptual structure and classifies the articles analyzed into a specific modularization taxonomy and in terms of the study's objective.Keywords Modularity .
