Papers by Professor Dr Christopher Preece
focus on their financial performance and consider the stock price of companies as the usher of that. For a long time, traditional measures of performance like Earning per Share, Return on Investment, etc., have been used by investors to measure stockholder value creation in companies, but according to the potential weaknesses of the traditional measures of performance, they have gravitated to use value based measures of performance which focus on changes in value. The value based measures of performance are diverse and there is no consensus between scholars about their competence in evaluating financial performance of companies perfectly. To assess the ability of the value based measures in evaluating stockholder value creation, in this paper the attempt is made to examine the relationship between stock price behaviour of companies and two of the most important value based measures, economic value added and market value added in Tehran Stock Market. The results of the study corroborate the significant correlation of the research variables.
Key words: Value based measures, Economic value added, Market value added, Stock price, Stock market.
the organizations they work for in the context of construction industry in Malaysia. In
construction industry many parties have been identified as stakeholders and these abundant
and diverse stakeholders do need to be managed based on this fact that, success in
construction projects is significantly dependent on meeting the needs of project stakeholders.
According to this issue in the construction industry, the importance of embracing PersonalOrganizational
fit (P-O fit) which mostly emphasizes on values and known as value congruence
is revealed, due to its function for creating compatibility between individual values and
organizational values. Recently, the concept of value congruence has attracted many scholars,
especially in the field of Organizational Behaviour (OB). Although the literature of OB regarding
value congruence indicates a disarray according to several theories and methodologies but
affirms the positive outcomes of this construct on some individual variables related to work
environment like; organizational commitment, job satisfaction and organizational identification.
