HOPI: Turkey's Shopping Companion

by Gamze Yucaoglu Sunil Gupta Donald Ngwe

The case opens in 2017 as Onur Erbay, CEO of HOPI, a multi-vendor loyalty platform, is contemplating a critical decision. The case chronicles the origins of Boyner Group, the parent company of HOPI and a major retailer in Turkey, and development of retail and customer relationship management (CRM) in Turkey over the years. Before HOPI, Boyner Group retailers were unable to trace customers across the Group's brands form insights about customers' preferences and habits beyond what brand-specific CRM and loyalty programs provided data for. HOPI was born as the management team at Boyner Group realized the need to serve the customer holistically; the program was designed as a coalition loyalty program including non-Boyner retailer partners. The case provides a detailed overview of the design choices for HOPI-a mobile only app with its own currency, paracik, its revenue model, user experience, and how the company planned to leverage big data to segment the customers for retailers and increase purchasing power for customers. Since its launch in 2015, HOPI had 5.5 million downloads and 300 thousand daily active users browsing campaigns offered by over 116 coalition retailers that ranged from gas stations and cinemas to supermarkets and department stores. In 2017, Erbay, who had ambitions to grow HOPI beyond a loyalty program, was faced with harsh realities: the Turkish market was very price sensitive, several competitors had emerged since HOPI's launch, and several retailers and consumers preferred discounts at the time of purchase instead of earning loyalty points for future purchases. Erbay was also facing pressure from the parent company to make HOPI profitable. Was it time for HOPI to pivot to the discount model and abandon its original concept?

HP Consumer Products Business Organization: Distributing Printers via the Internet

by Rajiv Lal Edith D. Prescott Kirthi Kalyanam

In spring 1998, Pradeep Jotwani, vice president and general manager of the Consumer Products Business Organization of the Hewlett-Packard Co. (HP), was contemplating the increasing success of e-commerce and its implications for his division. The consumer products group had started selling refurbished printers through an Internet outlet center in December 1997, but Jotwani was now considering a move to sell new printers directly to consumers via this new channel. If he were to make such a move, he wondered which products to sell online at what prices, and how to communicate this strategy to the channel partners without damaging the existing distribution structure.

HP Instant Ink: (Self) Disrupting the Consumer Printing Market

by Elie Ofek Marco Bertini George Gonzalez Oded Koenigsberg

Seeking to disrupt the consumer printing market (before being disrupted by others), and in response to customer pain points, in 2013 HP Inc. launched an ink replenishment service called Instant Ink, where customers pay a monthly subscription fee based on the number of pages printed. Replenishment cartridges are automatically sent to the customer prior to running out of ink. The service had reached 7.5 million subscribers by mid 2020 and senior management now expected to scale it substantially. Several growth opportunities were being considered, these included: targeting customers with printers enabled to be part of the service but who declined to join in the past; making instant ink the default option when buying a new printer; adjustments to the pricing tiers and other plan components; more extensive marketing efforts to generate awareness; geographical expansion; broadening the service to laser toners; attacking the remote work space; and thinking about ways to bundle additional elements, such as paper and hardware (printers, computers, etc.). A concrete growth plan to make Instant Ink a multi-billion dollar business was needed before the annual Wall Street analyst conference to be held in the fall of 2020.

HPP: Tapping the Netherlands' Potential

by Brian Trelstad Ideles Kaandorp

Stichting Het Potentieel Pakken (HPP) was launched to solve a systemic problem in the Dutch Labor Market: gender inequity that was leading to a large number of women to work part-time in fields that were in desperately short supply of labor, like health care, child care and education. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, Dutch Medical Care Minister Tamara van Ark announced that it would provide a large grant to HPP, a non-profit that aimed to help organizations-like hospitals-tap into the full potential of the Dutch labor market by helping them better manage their part-time workforce. HPP's President and Founder Wieteken Graven wondered how HPP could grow from an annual budget of 450,000 to more than four times that within months. Could her team scale this quickly and what would happen when the government funding ended?

HR - vom administrativen Experten zum strategischen Business-Partner: Mehr Anerkennung und Einfluss für das Personalwesen in Unternehmen

by Doris Dull Ulrich L. Zischewski

Das Buch zeigt, warum es dem HR-Bereich bisher nicht gelungen ist, sich eine eigene Identität in Unternehmen aufzubauen und das Berufsbild zu festigen. Verantwortliche HR-Manager ringen in Unternehmen um Akzeptanz und Anerkennung und gelten eher als administrative Experten und nicht als strategische Business-Partner. Doch, warum ist das so und wie kann das Personalwesen seinen eigenen Einfluss auf das Unternehmensgeschehen geltend machen? Diesen Fragen gehen die Autoren dieses Fachbuchs nach. Die Autoren geben einen kurzen historischen Einblick in die Entwicklung der Personalarbeit und beschreiben anhand des vielfältigen Aufgabenspektrums, warum sich die Personaler zum Alleskönner entwickelt haben und die Personalfunktion dennoch überwiegend als Verwaltungsexperte und Kümmerer in der Organisation wahrgenommen wird. Sie erklären daher, welche Rollen, Aufgaben und Kompetenzen die HR-Funktion in den Kernprozessen beherrschen sollte und welche strategischen HR-Methoden in den jeweiligen Phasen des Business-Life-Cycle Sinn stiften, um dem Ziel, ein strategischer Partner zu sein, nahezukommen. Die Autoren machen zudem unmissverständlich deutlich, dass HR am Scheideweg steht, der entweder in eine Zukunft mit oder ohne HR führt.

by Ian Hunter Jane Saunders Simon Constance

HR Governance: A Theoretical Introduction (SpringerBriefs in Business)

by Boris Kaehler Jens Grundei

Human resource (HR) governance is a relatively new construct that has recently begun attracting more and more attention in both research and practice.

This book theoretically integrates HR governance with the related domains of corporate governance, general management, HR management, and leadership. By doing so, it provides scholars and practitioners in the field with a precisely delineated system of theoretical concepts for their work and helps to translate these concepts into concrete research questions and practical guidelines. By interpreting the new ISO 30408 norm on human governance and taking into account recent developments, the book helps to comply with and anticipate current and future HR regulations.
