Thoughts on dissertation

Here you can find some ideeas good or bad which stroke me during this term, regarding the dissertation (which really scares me, by the way). By writing things here, I managed to gather some ideeas and the whole project doesn't frighten me so much anymore...

Tuesday

No dissertation presentation until next term!!!

I was happy that this was postponed as we all have to do the other assignments which are quite challenging. I have already decided what my dissertation topic is but I am the reason why I am happy is because during this holliday I will write the assignment for relationship marketing as well and this will help me have a better view on the dissertation because I am writing about bonds and one of my research questions in the dissertation regards bons.

Managing Cultures assignment

Doing this assignment helped me because now I have some ideeas on the dissertation. The topic which I choose for this assignment is about doing a researched report on the Romanian culture which tests three factors regarding the consequences of the transition and the impact they might have upon the event industry in Romania: (1) new/non values (2) lack of education in organisational management, (3) business ethics in Romania. The practical research which I did, consists in the administration and interpretation of a questionnaire used on four managers with hierarchical positions in events companies in the city of Bucharest. This gave me some ideeas and I think I can focus on Romania in the dissertation topic. It also helped me because I realised that I can do a lot of active research in the events companies there, which I can use in the dissertation.
