Needs Analysis of social prevention Services for Children and Youth in Třeboň
ŠEDIVÁ, Ivana
The mission of the low-threshold facility for children and youth is to aim for integration of children and youth into society and for positive change to the way of life of young people who find themselves in a severe social situation. Essential importance of this facility are its consulting and preventive activities which enable children and youth to have a chat or to open out and talk about their problems that can be dealt with through the help of the assistants. There is no such facility in Třeboň, children and youth have no direct specialised social service here, which would offer activities and help in their leisure time. Main target of my Bachelor?s Thesis is to map the need of low-threshold facility for children and youth in Třeboň. The research was focused on two groups of people and their opinions, which are important for meeting the main target and partial targets of the thesis. The first group was children and youth of schools in Třeboň and the second group was professional public considering the theme of my thesis (educational consultants, headmasters, representatives of municipal Police, members of Třeboň municipality council, deputy heads of Třeboň schools etc.). The first partial target was to find out an interest in use of low-threshold facility in the municipality of Třeboň, the second partial target was to find what activities children would be interested in. The third partial target was to compare the opinions of respondents to the analysis of potential users of social services implemented within the process of development plan creation. There were defined two following hypotheses within the thesis. H1: More than a half of the interviewed students are interested in use of a low-threshold facility for children and youth in Třeboň, H2: Potential clients of the low-threshold facility for children and youth expect especially an offer of pedagogical, educational and activation working. H1 and H2, which were analysed within a quantitative research using the method of questioning and the questionnaire technique, were proved. Children and youth of Třeboň schools would like to use such facility in the municipality of Třeboň. There was defined a research question within the thesis: Should the municipality of Třeboň financially support an establishment and operation of a low - threshold facility for children and youth in its territory? On the basis of a statement of professional public regarding this research question it is possible to say that 77, 7% interviewed from professional public think that Třeboň should financially support this facility and 22, 3% interviewed is on the opposite opinion. Low-threshold facility for children and youth in Třeboň would help the municipality to control criminal activities of children and youth by offering a suitable and specialized service directly to them. Unorganised youth would spend their leisure time by doing activities which can serve as prevention against risk behaviour. The activities would be professionally secured. Based on the opinions of the above mentioned two groups on the low-threshold facility for children and youth in Třeboň and consequent assessment it is possible to use the results then as a background material for possible review of the social service development plan in Třeboň and to get closer to children and youth and their needs.

Novotný, Lukáš ; Dvořáková, Zuzana (advisor) ; Cetkovský, Pavel (referee)
The topic of this thesis is reward management and its application in a small-sized IT enterprise. Its goals are to properly document and describe current reward system in the company, evaluate the system and recommend improvements for the system. The first two goals are reached via thorough research of the company through semi-structured interviews, employee satisfaction survey, participant observation and document examination and the last one by applying principles from the current literature and education to the results of the two previous goals. The findings are that the reward system, despite growing organically instead of designed, is relatively effective in some areas, but needs improvement in other areas. The main improvement areas are motivation by contingent pay, communication management and performance management. Relatively well working rewards are especially non-financial reward connected to the work environment and work itself.

Řízení IS/ICT se zaměřením na sourcing služeb informačního systému
Šebesta, Michal ; Voříšek, Jiří (advisor) ; Havlíček, Zdeněk (referee) ; Příklenk, Oldřich (referee) ; Král, Jaroslav (referee)
Research on outsourcing has been around for several decades, while recent evolution in the information systems discipline towards ICT service commoditization significantly changes the context of decision-making. Services that are available on-demand via the Internet allow organizations implementing functions they demand in a fraction of time. This trend represents a chance for organizations seeking to use advanced ICT services without a need of major investments. Problem is the current lack of guidelines and tools for managing ICT services and their outsourcing. Given the trends on the ICT service market, it is expected that much of the IT management in the future will encompass the ICT services and utilize service-level structures. Methods currently available are either too broad or encompass only small part of the whole problem. Ad-hoc or unsound decisions in this area might cause major complications in terms of quality, usability, integration, and consequently influence total cost of organizational IT. Organizations need to either revise existing models or propose and implement completely new models to manage their IS/ICT. This thesis deals with the management of IS/ICT with focus on the ICT services outsourcing. It discusses available sourcing models in the literature and links them to the various interconnected areas. Based on these areas, it presents an integrated view on IT outsourcing strategies. Most importantly the thesis proposes an original concept for decision-making about outsourcing of ICT services named the SOURCER framework. This approach utilizes the presented outsourcing strategies, and introduces a complex methodology and decision-making criteria that will assist organizations with selection of ICT services in order to maintain and manage a most suitable ICT service portfolio. The decision-making is based on four essential viewpoints: function, costs, time, and quality. These viewpoints are discussed, individually analyzed, and serve as a basis for further research. The whole framework is developed and validated according to Design Science Research Methodology (DSRM). Individual components are evaluated using a survey among a group of selected IT managers. Proof of concept is then established by a case study on framework use in a real organization. This case study covers strategy specification, business--IT alignment, specifying service architecture and its interconnections, outsourcing, and management of the ICT service portfolio.

Sejkora, Jiří ; Jiránková, Martina (advisor) ; Šaroch, Stanislav (referee) ; Fárek, Jiří (referee) ; Adamcová, Lenka (referee)
Sub-Saharan economies need structural changes that would enhance their productivity, increase economic growth and development. In this regard, industrialization plays a key role. Using regression analysis, the aim of this dissertation thesis is to identify main factors (determinants) of industrialization in sub-Saharan Africa. The results indicate that infrastructure and economy size (measured by population size) represent main determinants of industrialization in the region. The thesis also deals with possibilities for development of those determinants. Case study of infrastructure development in Mauritius emphasizes privatization, cooperation with external subjects etc. Negative consequences of small economy size can be overcome by preferential trade agreements (under certain circumstances), as shown by analysis of the three smallest economies in the region.
