SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Healthcare network governance and accountability shaped by social capital
DESCRIPTION:Home\n											\n									\n\n											\n										Events\n											\n									\n\nWEBINAR: Healthcare network governance and accountability shaped by social capital\nFree Public Webinar on Google Meet and YouTubeWednesday\, September 18\, 2024 @ 8:00 pm – 9:30 pm Irish Time \n																										 \nInvited Speaker\nDr Mara Sintejudeanu\nLecturer in Operations and Supply Chain Management Atlantic Technological University Ireland  \n		https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VsEeXxTo1o \nThis study examines how governance of a mandated public sector hospital network is implemented and the challenges the implementation poses for accountability and governance. Adopting a whole network perspective\, we conducted a case study of one mandated hospital network in Ireland. Our findings show that the espoused NAO (Network Administrative Organization) governance model was unable to respond to the accountability and governance challenges that arose. We identify how pre-existing bonding social capital between the “centralised network broker” (the Network Administrative Organisation) and the hub hospital limited the potential for social capital to expand from a private to a public good that could benefit the network as a whole. We draw attention to the importance of monitoring social capital development during network governance implementation and to how opposing poles of network tensions are managed. \nTime converter at worldtimebuddy.com \nAbout the presenter:\nMara has a strong research background and almost a decade of industry experience as Senior Economist in a public teaching hospital\, Business Manager and Main Inspector at the National Agency for Fiscal Administration. She completed her PhD at the University of Galway\, Ireland. Currently\, Mara holds the position of Lecturer in Operations and Supply Chain Management at Atlantic Technological University Ireland and programme coordinator for the MScs in Supply Chain Analytics and Healthcare Innovation and Technology programmes. She is a member of the Operations and Supply Chain Research (OSCAR) group at Atlantic Technological University Ireland. Mara’s research examines governance structures and operations management in mandated hospital networks and has a strong focus on Social Capital theory and its application in networks and supply chains. Her research was awarded the Best Paper Award for Young Scholars at the European Institute for Advance Studies in Management 2018 conference. Mara has been successfully involved in securing research fundings to support scholarly activity\, including the Irish Research Council (IRC) postgraduate scholarship and TU RISE funding. Mara is involved in supervision of PhD and Masters projects and provides consultancy services on EU projects at Atlantic Technological University Ireland on topics such as implementation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Engineering education and promotion of Environmental\, Social\, and Governance (ESG) awareness in SMEs. \nAbout Our Webinar Series\nThis event is part of our regular webinar sessions for social capital researchers including PhD/master students.

SUMMARY:Social Capital Research Design and Methods
DESCRIPTION:A workshop discussing the research process with a focus on social capital research.\n\n\n\nAre you conducting research on social capital?\nWould you like to discuss or get some help with your research design?\nDo you have any problems or challenges with your research design?\n\nThese sessions are a supportive way to learn more about social capital research design and methods. You can connect with people\, ask questions\, get advice\, and discuss ideas or issues. \nWho is this for? \nAlthough this workshop is focused on PhD students\, we welcome anyone conducting research on social capital. \nWho will run the workshop? \nBeverly Sloan has a PhD in Organisational Leadership from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. She is a veteran of the United States Air Force with more than 32 years of service. Her leisure activity includes mentoring masters and doctoral candidates on research practices. \nHow will the session work? \nIn these sessions\, we aim to discuss the research process. This includes defining research; discussing research significance\, problems\, and purposes; examining your worldview and philosophical stance; developing research questions\, sub-questions\, and hypotheses; and your theoretical or conceptual framework. We will discuss the initial literature review and its purpose in helping you build your initial central research question. We will use the initial research question to guide the preliminary literature review. During the preliminary literature review\, we will consider defining your key concepts and how they will drive your overall literature review. As we discuss the literature review\, the goal is to refine the research question\, identify gaps in the literature\, and focus the literature review on the central aspects of your research question. This should also help us develop a good outline for our literature review and identify variables or sub-research questions. Once we understand how the literature review shapes our study\, we will move on to research methods and design or our roadmap for collecting data. Then we will move on to data analysis and conclude by combining all the pieces. This will not be a linear process\, but it will be a process. \nAccess requirements \nWe seek to make our events accessible\, and this is no exception. If there is something that will help you to engage more effectively in this session\, please email us on: events@intsocialcapital.org. Sometimes\, it’s the small things that make a big difference\, so do email us if you have an access request. We recognise that not all participants are able to attend all sessions for the full duration. You are free to join us and leave at any time during the session. We request that you have your name on Zoom (this can be just a first name) to make it easier for us to facilitate the session and address participants correctly. It helps to have cameras on\, but we recognise that sometimes this isn’t possible\, for a variety of reasons.
