<p><strong>MMTC Seminar with guest Diellza Salihu (LUT)</strong></p><p><strong>Title: Institutional decoupling in industrial energy management technology adoption</strong></p><p>This work-in-progress seminar examines how industrial firms adopt energy management technologies in response to institutional pressures within the Nordic manufacturing context. Drawing on institutional theory and the concept of decoupling, the study aims to investigate the gap between formal commitments to energy management and the actual implementation of energy-efficient practices and technologies. Using a qualitative, case study design, the research explores how energy-intensive industrial firms seek to monitor, optimise, and reduce energy consumption, improve operational efficiency, comply with regulations, and meet sustainability targets. The study more specifically aims to understand how symbolic technology adoption emerges and how important actors can facilitate more meaningful industrial energy transitions.</p>

MMTC Seminar with guest Kieran Tierney: Measuring customer grief in brand relationships
MMTC Seminar with guest Kieran Tierney, RMIT University
Title: Measuring customer grief in brand relationships
Brands are key to building customer-brand relationships. Despite this, organisations change their product lines by removing favoured brands, thereby disrupting these relationships. This results in negative customer emotions, including pain and grief, which manifest in behavioural outcomes such as negative word-of-mouth, erosion of trust, and avoidance.
While there are established scales in psychology, grief remains relatively unexplored and fragmented in marketing and branding. Without measurement, brand studies risk capturing only partial manifestations of grief, resulting in inconsistent empirical findings and obscuring how grief shapes brand relationships, loyalty trajectories, and post-loss consumer behaviour, thereby impacting marketing management decisions. To address this, this study seeks to develop a customer grief measurement scale, given the impact of brand removals on customer-brand relationships.
This study used a quantitative approach comprising three studies conducted using data collected on Prolific. We present a reliable scale for measuring customer grief, its behavioural outcomes, and implications for hedonic and utilitarian brands.
