Abstract
Purpose
This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.
Design/methodology/approach
This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.
Findings
Growing doubts about the reliability of professional analysts is making many investors hesitant to use the conventional approach to stock market investment. They are instead becoming increasingly attracted to an alternative strategy based on recommendations offered from members of virtual communities. Objective criteria are used to identify experts within such domains who have the potential to generate results comparable with major global indices.
Originality/value
The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
