Proponents applaud location-based advertising as a way to bridge the gap between online and physical customer experiences and promote impulse purchases. Skeptics question whether location-based marketing (LBM) will cause consumer burn-out and violate consumer privacy if the data that is gathered through LBM is not used, shared, protected, and stored properly. Companies engaging in LBM should take measures to ensure customer privacy through stringent opt-in policies and security safeguards. Enhancing Customer Engagement Through Location-Based Marketing presents the main techniques of geo-marketing, introduces the idea of a "geo-marketing mix,” and develops the mobile marketing concept based on geolocation techniques. Covering key topics such as data management, augmented location, and mobile targeting, this premier reference source is ideal for business owners, entrepreneurs, managers, marketers, policymakers, researchers, academicians, practitioners, scholars, instructors, and students.

This book explores several challenges facing FinTech in Islamic financial institutions. Firstly, large banks and financial institutions in countries with updated and innovative technological channels will earn the technology arbitrage from FinTech. This ‘size’ puzzle may create a challenge for Islamic financial institutions that are of smaller size and from technologically less-developed countries. Secondly, while access to FinTech is getting broader day by day, usage of FinTech is still limited due to personal and governance-related limitations. Moreover, the level of awareness of the emerging FinTech services (i.e., bitcoin, blockchain, etc.) remains extremely poor even among the residents of technologically-advanced countries. Thirdly, use of FinTech by Islamic financial institutions is limited to Islamic banking, to users from developed countries, among young customers, and for a limited number of traditional banking services such as the deposits and payment services. Also, banks hope to use FinTech to increase the size of a new breed of technology-savvy depositors and loan customers to achieve economies of scale, which may help stabilize the banking sector. Automation in Islamic banks and the participation of Islamic financial institutions in blockchain and bitcoin domains require extensive research from Shariah-compliance as well as market and consumer-related grounds. With all the opportunities and challenges of FinTech—promoting inclusion, easier loan monitoring, and risk of Shariah non-compliance—this book explores the implications for Islamic financial institutions and will be of interest to scholars, researchers, and students of Islamic finance and financial technology.

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly recognized as organizations seek to disrupt and transform processes in order to drive innovation in their business models. However, despite substantial investments in AI implementation, recent research indicates that organizations are struggling to realize the expected benefits. Furthermore, many firms face challenges when it comes to effectively integrating AI applications into their existing organizational systems. To bridge this gap, there is an urgent need to deepen understanding of AI techniques, particularly in the context of Asian organizations, where diverse workforces, cultural differences, language barriers, and skill shortages present unique complexities. Exploring the Intersection of AI and Human Resources Management explores the methodologies, theories, and perspectives related to the application of AI in organizations. Focused on the convergence of Human Resource Management (HRM) and AI, this book aims to provide invaluable insights to academics, researchers, policymakers, organizational managers, advanced-level students, leaders, academicians, and government officials. By shedding light on the tools and applications of AI in optimizing human resources, this book expands the horizons of research and encourages the seamless integration of HRM and AI.

In today's rapidly evolving business landscape, organizations are constantly faced with the challenge of staying competitive and adapting to change. To thrive in this dynamic environment, it is crucial for organizations to develop the capability to learn, unlearn, and relearn effectively. Absorptive capacity, the ability to acquire, assimilate, and apply external knowledge, plays a vital role in fostering innovation, agility, and competitive advantage. By tapping into external sources of knowledge, organizations can leverage new insights, technologies, and best practices to fuel their growth and development. However, absorptive capacity alone is not enough. Organizations must also cultivate the willingness and ability to unlearn outdated knowledge, assumptions, and practices that may hinder progress. Unleashing Absorptive Capacity and Unlearning for Organizational Excellence delves into the interconnected dynamics of absorptive capacity and unlearning within organizational contexts. It emphasizes how absorptive capacity and unlearning can mutually reinforce and amplify each other, creating a positive feedback loop. Covering topics such as continuous improvement, learning cultures, and organizational adaptability, this book empowers leaders, managers, human resources professionals, researchers, academicians, educators, postgraduate students, and more with the knowledge and tools necessary to foster a culture of continuous learning, ultimately contributing to organizational excellence.
