Abstract

This paper presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the current research landscape concerning digital transformation in Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs). Through a series of VOSviewer visualizations, we identify major thematic clusters, emerging research trends, unexplored opportunities, and patterns of author collaboration within the field. Our findings reveal a strong initial focus on crisis management in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which gradually shifted towards long-term strategic issues such as business model innovation, digitalization strategies, and international market expansion. The analysis highlights under-researched areas including specific business processes and implications of digital transformation in the manufacturing sector, suggesting fruitful avenues for future research. Additionally, the study maps the collaboration networks among scholars, uncovering both strong interconnections and potential gaps that offer opportunities for new scholarly partnerships. This paper contributes to the strategic knowledge on digital transformation in SMEs by outlining the evolution of research themes over time and suggesting directions for future research collaborations to enhance the digital resilience and competitiveness of SMEs.

Abstract

This study utilizes bibliometric analysis to map the scholarly landscape of research in hypercompetitive environments and strategic management. Through VOSviewer visualizations, we identified thematic clusters, examined trends over time, analyzed under-researched opportunities, and explored patterns of author collaboration. Our findings reveal a significant shift from foundational theoretical research towards more practical, industry-specific strategies that address dynamic competitive challenges. We identified key thematic areas such as industry dynamics, leadership in hypercompetition, globalization impacts, and sector-specific adaptation strategies. Furthermore, less-explored areas such as opportunity recognition and competitive dynamics offer fruitful avenues for future research. The author collaboration network analysis highlighted both active clusters and potential areas for increased interdisciplinary collaboration, suggesting a maturing yet still siloed research community. This comprehensive overview not only synthesizes existing research but also highlights strategic gaps and opportunities for future scholarly work in the domain of strategic management within hypercompetitive contexts.

Abstract

This study employs a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to explore the evolution, trends, and research networks within the field of Agile Project Management (APM). Utilizing data from prominent academic databases and visualized through VOSviewer, this paper identifies thematic clusters that highlight foundational Agile principles, strategic implementations, team dynamics, and technical aspects of APM. The research trends over the past decade demonstrate a significant shift from basic Agile methodologies towards advanced topics like risk and cost management, reflecting the field's maturation and adaptation to diverse and complex environments. The analysis also uncovers substantial research opportunities in integrating Agile practices with cost management, applying Agile in non-traditional fields, and developing sophisticated risk management strategies. Moreover, an examination of author collaboration networks reveals distinct clusters of scholarly activity and highlights influential researchers and their interrelationships. This study provides valuable insights into the dynamic landscape of Agile Project Management research, underscoring both established areas and emerging frontiers for future exploration.

Abstract

This bibliometric analysis explores the evolving landscape of conflict management research across various dimensions, including thematic clusters, research trends, emerging opportunities, and author collaborations. Utilizing VOSviewer for visual mapping, the study identifies key themes such as leadership styles, resolution processes, and personal traits like gender and professional roles that dominate the discourse. A longitudinal analysis from 2002 to 2010 highlights a pivotal shift from foundational conflict management concepts towards addressing broader societal impacts and understanding the economic ramifications of conflict. Opportunities for future research were pinpointed in underexplored areas such as ethnic conflicts, the costs associated with conflict, and the roles of power in achieving peace. The author collaboration network, though sparse, reveals central figures that could drive further interdisciplinary studies. This study not only maps the current state of conflict management research but also sets the stage for future explorations that could bridge theoretical gaps and enhance practical applications.
