| Description | Reverse flows are considered by many companies as the necessity or something negative being just the cause of higher costs. Paper presents results of exploratory survey concerning some managerial issues of reverse flows management as an important part of every company existence, especially with the notion of growing entrepreneurial costs and possibilities to get value (in various forms) from different reverse flows and also as the result of environmental requirements on management which can lead to higher interest on reverse flows value. Reverse flow management is not very frequent topic in the Czech Republic and the authors aim was to examine present situation including the perception of reverse flows importance for value creation, perception of barriers in reverse flows management, the prevalence of managerial approaches etc. The survey was realized on the relative small sample as the first year research entry to longterm work. Therefore the results cannot be generalized, they only show some direction of the status. |
