Šamánek, Ondřej ; Stuchlíková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Hasík, Gabriel (referee)
The bachelor thesis examines the impact of the oil and gas prices slump, which befell the world in 2014, on the economy of Qatar. The main objective of the thesis is to evaluate if and to what extend the price collapse influenced the relevant economic indicators and behaviour of the state and companies active in the affected field. The selected objective is examined using the method of data comparison, namely before and after the price slump, and with the help of the case study, in which the qatari company operating in the oil and gas is examined. From the conducted analysis it is possible to conclude that Qatar was directly influenced by the oil and gas prices collapse: its GDP slumped, fiscal deficit increased. The analysed company also experienced troubles caused by low prices: one year after the price slump, total amount of assigned tenders to company decreased substantially and historically high number of tenders was cancelled. Conclusions deriving from the thesis might be applied to other oil and gas export economies in the Persian Gulf, for fundamental traits of such economies are shared with the economy of Qatar.

Analysis of drawing EU Structural funds in the Czech Republic with a detailed focus on OP PIK
Procházka, David ; Svobodová, Ivana (advisor) ; Schön, Kateřina (referee)
Since the third and possibly the last grant period for the Czech Republic in the framework of drawing the European Funds is underway, it is assumed that businesses successfully and efficiently draw funds with allocated resources for the Czech Republic. Agencies should also help to the effective implementation, however, their activities do not reflect the market and clients requirements properly. To confirm that, the Czech Republic was in previous years, one of the worst states in terms of efficiency of drawing on funds of the EU structural funds, which was caused by an improperly formed grant system by management authorities, as well as misconduct on the part of applicants and potential beneficiaries and agencies with their erroneous philosophies. Author task was to analyse the causes of drawing funds inefficiency with a detailed focus on Operational Programme Enterprise and Innovation and Entreprise and Innovation for Competitiveness used mainly for businesses. Diploma thesis not only analyses the current grant situation in which entrepreneurs can submit their project applications but also proposes possible solutions how to help entrepreneurs in drawing on funds.

Výběr a implementace open source nástroje pro řízení portfolia projektů
Marek, Jan ; Chlapek, Dušan (advisor) ; Kučera, Jan (referee)
Methods and ways of implementation of changes and innovations in companies through project management are in today's society very well established. There exists methodologies, techniques and tools for the management of individual projects. However in a role of project manager, I very often faced the fact that companies are performing the project portfolio management in very intuitive way. This in itself leads to failed and prematurely terminated projects, initiation of the wrong projects or realisation of correct projects, but at the wrong time. Very often I have also recognized, that there is lack of awareness of fact, that there are also Open Source applications that can help with the organization's portfolio. This thesis deals with the definition of requirements, search and selection of proper OSS application and subsequent implementation. In the first part of this thesis I prepare a theoretical framework about PPM, and on that basis then identify and verify a set of requirements for selection of right OSS PPM application. The next section of thesis describes searching for suitable applications from a variety of sources, assessment against the requirements and the final selection. In the last part the implementation project is drafted, which aims to serve other colleagues in project management as one of the possible implementation paths. The outputs are then continuously confronted with experts in matter of projects and project management in the field of IT in order to maximize symbiosis between theory and real life experiences. Virtually every project management methodology defines the collection of already-proven techniques, best practices or lessons learned from the previous similar implementations. The main contribution of this thesis I see in fact that it contains not only the design of the project implementation, but also describes a logical path, what leads to the result. Therefore this thesis could be used as a base or discussed best practice, when a project of implementation of PPM application in place.

Serge Reggiani, the importance of inconspicuousness
Hrzina, Václav ; VALAK, Radim (advisor) ; Slavíková, Nataša (referee)
I would like to understand the importance of an actor in a movie. I choosed Serge Reggiani, a french actor, who never became a star number one. Reggiani went through a lot of important movies in principal or small roles. What it really means acting in a movie, what brings freedom to an actor in front of a camera and is one actor able to play different characters in every other movie. A diversity and length of his filmography, different directing styles he went through will help me to concretize attitude of an actor and perception of his „different“ characters by audience. I would like to bring up some acting metodes in cinematography in my work too.

The Role of Cross Border Projects in the Development of the Jesenicko Region
Rybářová, Hana ; Perlín, Radim (advisor) ; Szczyrba, Zdeněk (referee)
The Master thesis aims to analyse the role of cross border projects in the development of the Jesenicko region. The main research question is whether the cross border projects trigger the development of cross border networks of cooperation as well as whether the projects contribute to the socioeconomic development of the model region. The experience from well- established cross border regions in Western Europe indicates that overcoming "soft barriers" such as trust and prejudice among inhabitants from border areas is problematic but necessary for the overall integration of the region. Therefore, the situation along the Czech and Polish border is to be examined. Methodology of the thesis is framed by the inductive approach and is of an interpretative character. The main research method of the thesis is a multiple case study. The significant advantage of this method is that it allows analysing the collected data within the wider framework of region as well as its exploratory character helps to understand the factors determining the success of the projects. The analytical framework is based on the institutional theories of regional development as well as on the concepts of Czech Human Geography. Based on the findings, it is concluded that the cross border projects help to build the common trust in the studied...

Dramatic work of Josef Tejkl
Linhart, Otto ; CÍSAŘ, Jan (advisor) ; STROTZER, Milan (referee)
This Bachelor thesis is devoted to the work of Josef Tejkl (1952/2009), playwright, director, novelist and artist, particularly to his dramatic activity. In an attempt to give a comprehensive survey of the dramatist‘s works not published up to now, I am endeavouring to analyse Tejkl‘s dramatic work viewed through literary Baroque style. In the works of Tejkl Baroque trends can be clearly seen. I want to point out my own thesis, which is that Baroque themes determine the understanding of Josef Tejkl‘s almost whole output. This Bachelor treatise also aims at helping the complete cataloguing of all works of this author in the hope that in future at least a part of Tejkl‘s dramatic output will find its publisher.
