The diploma thesis deals with the issue of the chosen current trends of ICT. The CIO represents the crucial person of the whole thesis. The aim of the thesis is to describe and comment on the connection of the role of the CIO with trends and challenges he/she has to face in recent times. To fulfill this aim it is necessary to realize the current trends through the integration of surveys of the renowned companies dealing with the ICT market. The field overhang of these studies dedicated to technologies is essential. The benefit of the thesis consists of the connection of the business and ICT at the CIO level. The abstraction from technical specifications of the particular trend as well as from the managerial point of view creates an image of the challenges for the CIO in the company context. The introductory part of the thesis reflects the position of ICT in companies and creates an image of the internal connection of the company as a whole. The core of the main part of the thesis contains chapters dedicated to the trends in particular: data analysis, content analysis, social business, big data, ICT security and education. Each of these main chapters describes the current state of the ICT field and its role in the company context. The last part of each main chapter deals with the benefit and the role of the CIO for the mentioned field. CIO's influence on the challenge, allies and possible risks of the trend are mentioned. At the end of the thesis the benefit of the CIO for the company and his/her role of facing challenges which come from the ICT field are evaluated. CIO plays an important role as a responsible person for particular challenges. Nevertheless, as it is apparent from the thesis, the CIO is not the only important part of the system that is necessary to create the maximum from each challenge.

The topic of this diploma thesis is the commercialization of civic organizations, which we understand as the process in which they take over some procedures, methods and strategies of the commercial sector in order to generate some profit. As the highest level of commercialization, this work considers the transformation of civil organization into a so called social enterprise.At the next potential level, this civic organization would become a pure market enterprise acting as socially responsible. Thus, a social enterprise is defined as a civic organization, for which profiting is just as important as an increase in public benefit by fulfilling of its own altruistic mission. However, it is said that this social mission may be threatened by the economic one. Whereas the social enterprise combines those two opposing attributes in the form of a social and economic mission, it is considered to be controversial. That's why the aim of this diploma thesis is to determine the importance of a transformation of civic organization into the social enterprise for its life and how this transformation affects its functioning and its essence. The diploma theses is based primarily on the theory of civil society, the civil sector, the social economy and the theory of social enterprise. It is a case study, which...

The thesis deals with the possibilities of financing social enterprises in the Czech Republic. The thesis is divided into two parts on the theoretical and empirical part. The theoretical part is divided into three thematic blocks.

Social Entrepreneurship and Social Enterprises are an emerging trend. An increasing number of individuals are finding ways to address a social issue through their entrepreneurial skills. As well as increasing number of corporations and investing organizations are looking for ventures that address a social issue to fulfil their social responsibility. Thus, it is increasingly becoming important for the social entrepreneurs to measure and report their impacts to society in an accurate way. This research seeks to find out the challenges faced by social entrepreneurs while setting up social impact measurements in their ventures and the solutions adopted by them. Through a series of semi‐structured interviews with successful social entrepreneurs, this research collects qualitative data that increases the knowledge in this area and contributes in a better understanding of the challenges faced by social entrepreneurs. This research found that Theory Of Change is the most commonly used method and is preferred by practitioners as it is easy to implement. The research summarises the efforts it takes to implement the measurements, recommends best practices or advice to make impact measurement easier and useful. Also, a framework is developed that can be used in setting up measurements in a social venture.

The domains of Business Intelligence (BI) and social media have meanwhile become significant research fields. While BI aims at supporting an organization’s decisions by providing relevant analytical data, social media is an emerging source of personal and individual knowledge, opinion, and attitudes of stakeholders. For a while, a convergence of the two domains can be observed in real-world implementations and research, resulting in concepts like social BI. Many research questions still remain open – or even worse – are not yet formulated. Therefore, the paper aims at articulating a research agenda for social BI. By means of a literature review we systematically explored previous work and developed a framework. It contrasts social media characteristics with BI design areas and is used to derive the social BI research agenda. Our results show that the integration of social media (data) into a BI system has impact on almost all BI design objects.

Nesse contexto, os negócios sociais ganharam notoriedade no cenário acadêmico, organizacional e midiático, ao se posicionarem como uma nova alternativa que contribui para a promoção das transformações sociais direcionadas a população de baixa renda, promovendo a inclusão social e econômica. Isso acontece por meio dos produtos e serviços ofertados pelos negócios sociais para esse público, os quais visam solucionar dificuldades sociais, levando em consideração o impacto individual e coletivo. Assim, este estudo buscou compreender como o negócio social contribui para promover transformações sociais no mercado direcionado à população de baixa renda. Para tanto, toma-se como base teórica as abordagens negócios sociais e transformações sociais. Esta pesquisa de campo tem como foco um caso particular, que é o do Banco Bem, localizado em Vitória, no Espírito Santo. Desenvolveu-se uma pesquisa qualitativa, organizada em duas fases distintas. A primeira buscou a identificação dos diferentes tipos de inclusão, além dos que a abordagem negócio social tradicionalmente apresenta, e a identificação dos fatores facilitadores e dificultadores que interferem na promoção das transformações sociais. Essa primeira fase foi desenvolvida por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas com 15 diferentes atores envolvidos com o negócio social estudado, abrangendo a gestora, os agentes de créditos e os seus beneficiários. Posteriormente, os dados foram analisados por meio da análise de conteúdo. A segunda fase aborda a trajetória de vida, que analisa a experiência individual de três pessoas da comunidade que foram beneficiadas pelo Banco Bem e tiveram suas vidas impactadas por esse negócio. Como principais resultados, o estudo aponta a identificação de novos tipos de inclusão que um negócio social pode gerar, além da social e econômica, e a identificação de outros fatores que facilitam e dificultam a promoção das transformações sociais. A trajetória de vida como relato das transformações sociais sinalizou que a realidade individual e econômica das pessoas entrevistadas foi modificada a partir do momento em que elas foram beneficiadas pelas ações do Banco Bem. Os depoimentos destacaram os benefícios e as mudanças na vida dessas pessoas e da comunidade. Todos destacaram questões do contexto social da comunidade, demonstrando um olhar diferenciado sobre os benefícios usufruídos.
