Governments in many countries are facing the challenge of providing sufficient retirement incomes for an ageing population. Through bibliometric analysis, this paper disentagles the intelectual and conceptual structure of the research on financial literacy in the various phases of retirement financial planning, identifying the most recent trends. The results are especially relevant for the financial community, considering the increasing emphasis of institutions and society in the use of financial literacy as a way of incresasing the responsibility of individual citizens in the design of their own retirement strategies.

Why do politicians and academics want to encourage the creation of new companies? Why are numerous reports and journals filled with analyses of environmental conditions or initiatives aimed at boosting entrepreneurial intention? Because entrepreneurs play an essential role in economic development. Education and training occupy an honored place on the list of methods to increase entrepreneurial intention. In this paper, we assess the impact of an experiential learning practice on students' entrepreneurial intentions. Moreover, we consider the moderating role of individual characteristics such as gender, age, proximity to entrepreneurship, academic performance, previous work experience, and propensity for risk. We observe the change in a university student's entrepreneurial intention as a consequence of participating in a serious business game. We do not find that participation results in a significant positive general effect. Further, age, proximity to entrepreneurship, propensity for risk, and academic performance moderate the impact of participation. The results suggest students become aware of their need for additional training and the difficulties of entrepreneurship and company management.

The rapid spatial diffusion of the COVID-19 epidemic outbreak has resulted in the total economic disruption of the Tourism Supply Chain (TSC) causing a significant reduction in revenue and creating liquidity issues for all operators. Firms in TSC are linked to each other in complex patterns, leading one risk to another. The purpose of this article is to understand the role of relationship management between hotel chains and their key TSC agents in order to overcome economic disruptions caused by epidemic outbreaks. Among the main contributions of this article are the identification of governments, tour operators, and competitors as the key relationships to be managed by hospitality firms. In addition, key areas for coordination with these actors are explored. Finally, the objectives of relationship management according to the partner are also addressed.

In the current digital era, the borders amongst firms are getting blurred when it comes to value creation. Therefore, the traditional configuration of the value chain is frequently replaced by other ones which include the collaborative participation of different agents. Within this context, global value chains, where the value activities are located in different countries, and industrial clusters, which combine competition and cooperation, are attracting a growing attention of both business leaders and scholars in the recent years. Through a bibliometric analysis, this paper disentangles the intellectual and conceptual structure of the research topic of industrial clusters and global value chains. Results show the multidisciplinary character of the topic, including papers published in different areas, such as business, regional studies and world development, as well as its close link with aspects like innovation, regional development, governance or organization. Finally, this study remarks the research lines that could attract more attention in the immediate future.

The study of work–life balance has undergone significant development in recent years as a result of changes in society and the growing importance of human resources (HR) for companies. Taking into account that human capital represents a critical success factor for businesses, the current context requires the development and implementation of HR management strategies aimed at attracting and retaining the most talented workers in order to obtain the expected results. The objective of this paper is to present an integrated model of work–life balance strategies, including the impacts of the different policies and practices on the retention of talented HR, which can be a basis for further academic developments on this subject, as well as a roadmap for managers. Hence, we will analyze a case study carried out in a multinational company—a leader in the technology and tourism sectors, and importantly dependent on valuable human capital, for which the HR strategy aims to improve the performance of the firm in the medium and long term through analysis, planning, and flexibility.

This work describes in detail the development of an educational game as a tool to check the degree of acquisition and consolidation of knowledge of the student in relation to a subject are . It is proposed as a complementary method to traditional methodologies.Thus, the article presents the devolpment of a brand new serious game which has been created in the 2019-20 academic year. Ithas been used in two different groups of the Degree in Business Management (one taught in English and the other one in Spanish). Based on previous gamification experiences, the design and use of the game has lead to the achievement of the goals pursued, generating also an important volume of valuable information that can increase the effectiveness of the use of other tools (tutorials, theoretical immersion in some specific subjects or case studies).

The field of mergers and acquisitions and sustainability has been expanding in the last years; consequently, there is a need for a systematic review of the existing body of knowledge. This article aims to fill this gap by providing an overview and synthesis of the research topic. The specific objectives are (1) to assess the academic impact, and (2) to determine the structure of the topic. To achieve these goals, a bibliometric analysis will be carried out through a selection of articles taken from the WoS database from 1900 to 2019. First, the historical evolution of publications will be addressed, the distribution of articles by journal and by individual author, as well as the total number of citations per article. Second, this article will develop networks of co-citations of authors and journals and co-word analysis by using VOS Viewer software. The global results will provide insights into the nature and trends of research on mergers and acquisitions and sustainability.

The aim of this conceptual article is to provide a better understanding of hospitality by designing a theoretical model capable of capturing the complexity of an assembled service provided by multiple agents, with a strong experiential component. The network approach allows us to expand the traditional marketing approach to study the service experience – based on the customer’s subjective perceptions – towards a strategic and managerial perspective by incorporating the necessity to collaborate with multiple partners. The study has been conducted as a systematic literature review. Thus, the main theoretical contributions are aimed at emphasizing the role of the service experience not simply as a key motivator of consumption, but also as a strategic success factor for hospitality firms. Another significant contribution is the consideration of the complete set of alliances of the hospitality firm, given its role as resource integrator.
