El Niño and global warming are mixing in alarming ways

A study “Fair Weather or Foul? The Macroeconomic Effects of El Niño” co-authored by Dr Kamiar Mohaddes, Associate Professor in Economics & Policy at Cambridge Judge Business School, is covered in The Economist. Kamiar says the study shows that there are considerable heterogeneities in the responses of different countries to El Niño shocks. While Australia, Chile, Indonesia, India, Japan, New Zealand and South Africa face a short-lived fall in economic activity in response to an El Niño shock, for other countries (including the United States and European region), an El Niño occurrence has a growth-enhancing effect. We also show that generally—but not always—El Niño events tend to be inflationary as both energy and non-fuel commodity prices increase. However, on net, an El Niño year is positive for the global economy.

Major global ranking celebrates ‘world leading’ Cambridge Judge

Cambridge Judge Business School’s #1 ranking in the Research Excellence Framework in the UK was featured in a comprehensive article in leading business-school publication Poets & Quants.

The publication interviewed Dean Mauro Guillén and Vice-Dean Vincent Mak about the School’s top ranking in the Business and Management Studies category of the REF, which is done every seven years by the UK’s higher education funding bodies.

“It is extremely rewarding for us, of course, to see that we rank so highly. But what the ranking doesn’t reflect is the extent to which the research we conduct trickles down into the classroom. That helps us, I think, educate our students so much more effectively.” Mauro says in the article.

The article outlines how the REF evaluated research from 157 UK higher education institutions in 34 different subject areas, measuring both the quality and impact of the school’s research submissions.

Future of UK churches at risk unless they reimagine their buildings, report finds

A study by Helen Haugh, Associate Professor in Community Enterprise and Research Director of the Centre for Social Innovation at Cambridge Judge Business School, is featured in this “latest news” article on Sky.

According to an audit of churches carried out in Cambridgeshire and West Norfolk, a third of the UK’s church buildings cost more money each year than they are able to raise, and only one in five is financially profitable, the article says.

“Evaluating the success of the church in terms of the amount of funds it raises and the size of its congregation undervalues the contribution that churches and church buildings make to a community. There are options for churches that struggle with financial sustainability, the least preferred of which is to close the church. Our research is about finding ways to keep churches open.” Helen says.

Oscar-winning graphic designer thought she had dream job – until she had a baby

Dr Chen Mao Davies, CEO of LatchAid is featured in this article about her recently created app designed to help mothers breastfeeding.

“I had always thought my dream had been fulfilled working for the film industry in Hollywood but after having my son Oscar, in 2015, I started facing difficulties with breastfeeding. When I realised there was no help for struggling new mothers I thought: ‘I am a technologist: this is something I can do to make a difference to the world’,” Chen says.

The venture is supported by the Cambridge Social Ventures programme, part of the Cambridge Centre for Social Innovation at Cambridge Judge Business School.

Mark Goodson, who mentored Chen at Cambridge Social Ventures and is still a Business Advisor for LatchAid, says: “LatchAid’s success is a testament to the power of an impactful solution, a very smart entrepreneur and the right support at the right time. But most of all it’s a testament to Chen’s persistence and determination. Holding down a full-time job, whilst caring for two young children and simultaneously getting LatchAid off the ground was a phenomenal effort.”

Platform Preview – SyndicateRoom

Goncalo de Vasconcelos (MBA 2010) and Tom Britton (MBA 2012), alumni of Cambridge Judge Business School and Founders of SyndicateRoom, are mentioned in this article featuring their platform.

SyndicateRoom recently closed its latest funding round which drew in £3.1 million to fund its ambitious expansion policy, the article says.

Goncalo and Tom met by chance at a networking event in Cambridge:

“The idea for SyndicateRoom stemmed from our belief that the crowd should be offered the same investment opportunities as those being invested in by experienced early stage investors. In a space where valuations and terms are near on impossible to calculate, combining the wisdom of the experienced investors with the power of the crowd provides investors with an added layer of due diligence (for both lead investor and crowd). It provides the companies with the guidance of the experienced members and the network of a much wider audience.” Tom says.

“Much of crowdfunding is about small amounts of cash to support what I call social enterprise. The syndicate room is different because it is all about using the business know-how and due diligence of the professional class of large-scale private investors.” Goncalo says.

Global banks are quietly cutting China jobs as big bang fizzles

Christopher Marquis, Sinyi professor of Chinese management at Cambridge Judge Business School and author of the book ‘Mao and Markets.’ Is featured in this article about China jobs at global banks being quietly.

China’s financial opening that kicked off three years ago was supposed to be the biggest banking play of a lifetime. It’s now at risk of foundering as a slump in deals and growing political tension force global banks to recalibrate their plans, the article says.

“It’s clear China can switch direction and crack down quickly as has been shown in many industries in recent years,” says Christopher.

“Particularly banking is tied to general national security, which has really been shown in recent years to be the dominant logic of Xi, above and beyond economic growth.” he says.

Survival versus aspiration – CEOs and foreign adventure

Mauro Guillén, Dean of Cambridge Judge Business School, speaks about CEOs who also serve as board chair being more risk-averse in foreign expansion.

“CEOs of firms that fail to meet performance targets have long sought to expand abroad to lift their fortunes, because these foreign markets can lift revenues through a wider customer base, boost returns due to economies of scale, and access new resources and capabilities. Prior research has shown an inverted U-shaped curve: slight underperformance sharply boosts entry into foreign markets, but this slows if firms significantly underperform as they seek instead to reduce risks (which include lack of local knowledge and networks). It’s a question of whether aspirations prevail over survival, or vice versa, depending on the degree of performance shortfall,” Mauro says.

“Yet our new study of Spanish firms over a quarter-century shows that such overseas adventures are far less prevalent when the CEO is also chair of the board of directors (known as ‘CEO duality’). This is because such dual CEOs take a more conservative, risk-averse approach when shortfalls arise.” He says.

There is still a “stigma” when it comes to hiring older workers. While a multigenerational organisation can be highly creative, it can also increase conflict, Thomas says.

“Both younger and older generations have prejudice against each other — older workers believe millennials are entitled and expect everything from their employer and an immediate pay-off. Younger workers believe older ones had it easy, and are incapable of adapting to new trends,” he says.

Why keeping it in the family can be good news when it comes to CEOs

A study co-authored by Jochen Menges, Associate Professor in Organisational Behaviour at Cambridge Judge Business School, is mentioned in this article about CEOs in family firms.

According to the study “Research suggests that firms with family CEOs differ from other types of businesses, yet surprisingly little is known about how employees in these firms feel and behave compared to those working in other firms.”

“There has long been a conundrum in family business research: why do many such firms thrive despite anachronistic management structures and low investment in employees?” says Jochen.

“This study helps unlock that paradox by focusing on the positive role of emotions tied to family CEOs.” he adds.

Resentment is mounting as some employees are forced back to the office and some are allowed to work from home

Thomas Roulet, Associate Professor of Organisational Theory at Cambridge Judge Business School, speaks about return-to-office and fairness in the workplace.

“If you’re offering two different types of employees different access to work, you potentially create an issue of equity,” Thomas says.

“In the long run, this could hurt a company’s bottom line because employees may look at what other people are getting in their organisation, look at what they are getting, and compare. If they feel like they are putting in a lot more than the next person, without a reward, they are going to disengage, and they’re going to be demotivated,” he said.

“The best way to get those with mental health issues into work, or to stay there, is to have empathetic leadership and people-centred managers who personalise their approach. Once this is done then employers need to have available interventions that have the best chance of working, i.e. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness, Employee Assistance Programmes and peer support. Employers need to beware of plastering over the cracks with nice but not sustainable interventions.” Carol says.
