The research was conducted on a sample of Croatian sport managers. The results indicate that they find ICT essential for efficient sport management practices. The study also showed that managers believe that ICT is used sufficiently in the management of their organisations, which should be taken with caution. The results partially support the hypothesis that there are serious barriers to the integration of ICT into sport management. Of all the barriers analysed, only the lack of funds for equipment purchases and software acquisition was identified as a significant obstacle. The findings of this study fill a gap in the existing literature and contribute to a better understanding of the process of ICT adoption and implementation in sport management.

Jedno od tih područja usklađenja je i javni sektor gdje svaka država nastoji dobiti maksimalnu učinkovitost u alokaciji javnih resursa. Jedno od tih resursa je i voda. Hrvatska je zemlja bogata vodom i kao takva dužna je učinkovito raspolagati svojim dobrom. Rad daje uvid u organizaciju i modele upravljanja vodom kao osnovnom životnom supstancom.

The focus of this research was consumer attitudes toward sustainable business practices of fashion brands. Based on the conducted research, differences were found between sexes in the perception of their own awareness of sustainability in fashion, where women consider their own awareness to be higher than men’s. The perception of fashion sustainability awareness in women younger than 35 and those over 36 was also examined. The research showed a gap between consumers’ awareness, their positive attitude toward sustainable fashion, and a lack of action in that direction when making purchasing decisions. The results of these studies provide a better understanding of one’s own perception of awareness in terms of fashion sustainability and various connected fact...

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) are the engines of modern entrepreneurship. In the Republic of Croatia, SMEs are also indispensable in the effort to boost employment and economic growth. The global economic crisis has virtually brought the national economies worldwide to a halt, causing a considerable decline in production, consumption, and gross domestic product. In such conditions, the development of individual entrepreneurial competencies and entrepreneurial culture represents the main preconditions for successful economic growth and development. The SME sector plays a key role in achieving this by increasing the national economy's competitiveness in the regional and European Union markets. The aim of this paper is to present the position of entrepreneurs in the Republic of Croatia, to identify challenges that come with setting up a bus...

Mainly the changes are displayed in the new ways of identity formation, lifestyles, careers, and relationships. These new ways are chiefly the result of great changes in the labour market and employment, in partnership and family relations, as well as in education. Changes in the labour market strongly influence the career planning and transitions to adulthood. Individual life course has become increasingly optional; it is a personal creation. At the same time, the individualisation of life courses demands greater readiness of people to accept risky decisions in business and in everyday life, and a greater ability of people to “take care of themselves”. Individualisation of life courses also demands appropriate changes of policies that may help people to overcome life problems and their distresses from childhood to old ...

Therefore, intercultural competence (ICC) seems to be a vital vehicle towards international understanding of global educational issues as well as finding the appropriate and suitable solutions. Hence, the idea of sharing thoughts in the domain of education and intellectualism in addition to the integration of universally valuable cultural elements in schools worldwide is becoming a must. This paper emphasizes the necessity of investing in international educational conferences as a strategy toward the betterment of educational reform policies, as well as the impact of intercultural competence on educators,...

In this paper internalization is defined by all aspects of the international activities, including export and import activities. Particularly interesting aspect of internationalization represents the internationalization of SMEs which is still insufficiently explored. Analysis of internationalization in this paper is based on business strategy approach, i.e. internal and external business factors. The business success in this paper is examined using a multidimensional approach, i.e. various dimensions of business success: financial business and organizational performance. Results of analysis of conducted empirical research by multiple linear regression analysis confirmed that internationalization has a positive impact on business performance of SMEs. By integrati...

Poglavito se od visokoobrazovanih osoba ocekuje da posjeduju primjerena znanja i vjestine iz podrucja koristenja informacijskih i komunikacijskih tehnologija (ICT). Polazeci od toga, u ovom su radu prezentirani rezultati istraivanja provedenog s ciljem utvrđivanja razine racunalne pismenosti hrvatskih studenata. U analizi je poseban naglasak stavljen na ispitivanje razlika u racunalnoj pismenosti između veleucilisnih i sveucilisnih studenata. Stoga su kljucnu ulogu u analizi imale metode inferencijalne statistike. Rezultati istraivanja pokazali su da studenti svoje opce ICT kompetencije ocjenjuju relativno visokim ocjenama, a napredne oblike koristenja racunala niim ocjenama.

Istraživanje je provedeno na uzorku od 818 studenata upisanih na šest veleučilišta. U okviru analize podataka izračunati su pokazatelji deskriptivne statistike. S namjerom određivanja načina korištenja ICT, prema kojima se definirane skupine studenata najviše razlikuju, provedena je diskriminativna analiza. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da pojedine skupine studenata, a poglavito oni upisani na tehničke studije, intenzivnije koriste ICT. Istraživanje je također pokazalo da su neki aspekti upotrebe ICT među hrvatskim veleučilišnim studentima zanemareni. Značaj ovog rada proizlazi iz činjenice da u njemu analizirana pitanja, iako ključna za ocjenu postojećeg stanja i formuliranje strategije razvoja hrvatskog visokog obrazovanja, još uvijek nisu na odgovarajući na...

Organiziranje je proces koji ima dvije specifične strane, strukturu poduzeća i koordiniranje ljudskim resursima i one su veoma bitne i gotovo nezaobilazne u poslovnoj ekonomiji i suvremenom poslovnom svijetu. U tom kontekstu definicije promatra se i Sveučilište Sjever kao organizacijska jedinica sa svim svojim karakteristikama, odnosno prednostima i problemima. Bilo koja organizacija (proizvodna ili uslužna) ne može se zamisliti i poslovati te opstati na tržištu ukoliko ne vodi računa o pravilnom, pravovremenom i kvalitetnom odabiru organizacijske strukture, ali i održavanju i unapređenju iste. Sukladno rečenom i u organizaciji Sveučilišta Sjever uočavaju se različiti problemi koji sputavaju njegovu učinkovitost. Studentska služba kao jedna od organizacijskih cjelina doprinosi njegovom radu i vrlo je bitno za ukupno zadovoljstvo najvažnijih subjekata, a to su studenti, nastavnici i sve os...

Because undergraduate and graduate nursing programs combine classroom education and clinical training, nursing students are already important stakeholders in HAI risk reduction and patient safety endeavors. Objectives: In this study, we appraised self-reported adherence to standard precautions among university nursing students, and we examined factors that may influence their level of compliance. Methods: In total, 362 undergraduate and graduate university nursing students form the University North in Croatia (Europe), enrolled in courses or modules with clinical placement, were surveyed in this self-reported cross-sectional study. A 2-part self-administered questionnaire was used, consisting of a demographic survey and a globally applicable 20-item Complianc...
