Manchester United Football Club (MUFC) is one of the most successful football clubs in England, if not the world. However, the football club's recent performance in domestic and European tournaments has left a lot to be desired. The recent 2021 Europa League final failure encapsulates the football club's decade-long condition. MUFC's days of competing seriously for trophies in every tournament open to the club are over. MUFC came close to winning the local league in the 2017 and 2021 seasons but fell short, just like they did in the previous Europa League final in2021. Numerous reasons have contributed to the current poor performance streak. This study aims to apply an enterprise architectural framework to enhance football player performance and manager-player relationships. This study discovered that MUFC might leverage big data analytics-IT integrated systems by following easy-to-understand enterprise architectural framework phases, which streamlines the adoption process for MUFC.

“…In addition, a number of scholars have also devoted to investigating IM from pragmatics (Chovanec, 2021;File, 2018;Lee, 2020). However, most of these researches are centered on media interviews (Chovanec, 2021) and personal interaction (File, 2018) instead of the organizational context. To my knowledge, only one study (Lee, 2020) has examined the use of IM in organizational context from pragmatics.…”

Some of Chinese corporations in food industry have recently faced sharp criticism for their illegal operation or unethical behavior. To deal with such crisis, these corporations are inclined to manage their public impressions by issuing apology statements. Serious as these problems are, yet scarce research has focused on the impression management of Chinese corporations through apologies. This paper aims to make a pragmatic analysis of apology strategies employed by Chinese food companies for impression management, drawing upon the framework of Jones and Pittman’s (1982) impression management strategies and Blum-Kulka and Olshtain’s (1984) theory of CCSARP. Based on a self-built corpus of 50 apology statements issued by Chinese food companies, the paper identified different apology strategies and their accompanying linguistic features through discourse analysis. The results show that IFIDs and offer of repair are two of the most common strategies in Chinese corporate apologies, whereas taking on responsibility is less frequently used. The apology strategies are often accompanied with such linguistic features as person deixis, honorifics, intensification and repetition. Chinese companies adopt these diverse apology strategies and linguistic features for the sake of impression management, which is realized by using such strategies as ingratiation, self-promotion, exemplification and supplication. Finally, the paper provides insights into the understanding of crisis management and corporate communication practice online.

A stratégiák meghatározását azonban a diskurzustípus jellegzetességei vezérlik, mivel a bírósági (Archer 2018;Hobbs 2003), a politikai diskurzusok (Simon-Vandenbergen 1996), a különböző interjútípusok (File 2018;Lipovsky 2006) és beszélgetőműsorok (Gordon 2011) résztvevői eltérő eszköztárral rendelkeznek.

Dolgozatomban egy pilot kutatás részeredményeit ismertetem, amelyben egyetemisták énmegjelenítési/benyomáskeltési stratégiáit vizsgálom. A szociálpszichológiai megközelítések habár eltérő módon definiálják az énmegjelenítést/benyomáskeltést a tudatosság tekintetében, mégis egyöntetűen stratégiákat rendelnek a jelenséghez (Goffman 1959; Schlenker 1980; Jones–Pittman 1982; Leary–Kowalski 1990; Leary 1995).A pilot kutatás elsődleges célja az, hogy a szociálpszichológiai és a pragmatikai megközelítéseket ötvözve létrehozzon egy olyan tesztet, amely alkalmas az énmegjelenítés/benyomáskeltés vizsgálatára. A dolgozatban a magyar anyanyelvű egyetemi hallgatók számára létrehozott, az énmegjelenítési stratégiákat vizsgáló nyílt végű diskurzuskiegészítéses teszt adatgyűjtési módszert ismertetem, illetve annak metodológiai problémáit járom körül. A pilot teszt eredményei alapján megállapítható, hogy egy szituációban nem megjósolhatóak a stratégiák, hanem a különböző társas interakciók esetében vannak kevésbé vagy inkább preferált metódusok, melyeket meghatároznak a benyomáskeltés mögött meghúzódó lehetséges motivációk, az arculatfenyegetettség mértéke, a szociológiai és szociokulturális változók.
