Der Alpenraum steht vor besonderen Herausforderungen, die internationalen Ziele des Globalen Biodiversitätsrahmens sowie der EU-Verordnung über die Wiederherstellung der Natur („Nature Restoration Law“) umzusetzen. Neben etablierten Bestandteilen räumlicher Planungsdokumente, wie etwa zum Landschaftsschutz oder der Naherholungsvorsorge, drängen ökologische Belange stärker in den Vordergrund. Das Positionspapier aus der länderübergreifenden Arbeitsgruppe des ARL-Forums Bayern versteht das multifunktionale Konzept der „Grünen Infrastruktur“ als gewinnbringenden Zugang, um im Alpenraum eine stärkere Koordinationsrolle der räumlichen Planung für freiraumbezogene Planungen und Maßnahmen zu fordern. Denn bislang fallen sie in die Zuständigkeiten verschiedenster Fachressorts und werden oftmals thematisch isoliert betrachtet und behandelt. Gleichzeitig soll damit auch die Akzeptanz staatlicher Nachhaltigkeitsziele sowie der effektive Einsatz öffentlicher Mittel gefördert werden. Das Positionspapier skizziert die Vision eines leistungsfähigen Netzwerks Grüner Infrastruktur im Alpenraum, welches vor allem die ökologische Vernetzung stärkt und sich auf eine rahmengebende Sicherung durch die Raumplanung stützt. Um dies zu erreichen, werden Handlungsempfehlungen bezüglich der Stärkung des rechtlichen Rahmens, der Eignung von Planungsinstrumenten, der Förderung und Finanzierung von Maßnahmen zur Umsetzung der Grünen Infrastruktur, der Stärkung der ressortübergreifenden Zusammenarbeit sowie der Mobilisierung gesellschaftlicher Akteurinnen und Akteure formuliert.
The Alpine region faces particular challenges in implementing the international targets of the Global Biodiversity Framework and the EU Nature Restoration Law. In addition to established components of spatial planning, such as landscape protection or local recreation provision, ecological concerns are increasingly in the spotlight. This position paper from the cross-border working group of the ARL Bavaria Forum considers the multifunctional concept of green infrastructure to be a profitable approach for strengthening the role of spatial planning in the northern Alpine region, specifically with regard to coordinating planning and measures related to open spaces. Such measures and plans have to date been the responsibility of a wide range of specialist departments and are often considered and treated in isolation. At the same time, the intention is also to promote acceptance of government sustainability goals and the effective use of public funds. The position paper outlines a vision of an efficient network of green infrastructure in the Alpine region that, above all, strengthens ecological connectivity and is secured by a spatial planning framework. In order to achieve this, recommendations for action include strengthening the legal framework, ensuring the suitability of planning instruments, promoting and financing measures to implement green infrastructure, strengthening interdepartmental cooperation and mobilising civil social actors.
Crowding is a frequently discussed issue in tourism, impacting both visitors and residents of touristic city centers and beyond. Initially, crowding as a subjective construct is examined in detail by taking into account influencing factors as well as negative and positive crowding phenomena. Subsequently, this study examines the relationship between subjective crowding and actual visitor numbers in the town of Füssen in the Allgäu region by investigating the interplay between objective counting data and subjective crowding perceptions with on-site field research. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining subjective feedback from visitors via terminals with objective counts from camera sensors. In addition, external factors such as weather and public holidays are taken into account in order to investigate their influence on the perception of crowding using SHAP values. By identifying patterns in crowding perceptions, this study aims to enrich research in this field with new insights from an innovative research approach and to advance the management of visitor flows. Thereby, both tourist experiences and residents’ quality of life in touristic city centers should be enhanced.
The increasing strain of overtourism on popular destinations calls for data-driven strategies that can subtly influence tourist behavior without limiting freedom of choice. This study investigates the use of digital nudges, particularly the decoy effect, within recommender systems to guide visitor flows spatially or temporally. Through a series of focus group-based experiments, this study examines how introducing asymmetrically dominated options can alter destination preferences. The results suggest that spatial steering benefits more consistently from decoy-based interventions than temporal steering. Furthermore, the findings reveal that while nudging has a measurable impact, individual factors and personal preferences play a substantial role in shaping decisions. The study underscores the value of behaviorally informed recommender systems as tools for promoting sustainable tourism by facilitating more balanced visitor flows. It concludes with a call for further development of adaptive, user-aware digital strategies to address the multifaceted nature of tourist decision-making.
Due to their inherent socio-technical nature, the engineering of information systems creates quite distinctive challenges. Addressing them requires not only a deep understanding of technical capabilities, but also of the respective application area, and the behavior of the intended users. Being interdisciplinary by design, the Information Systems field provides a broad tool-set to address these challenges. We are thus delighted to present the proceedings of the 2nd European Symposium on Information Systems Engineering (ESISE), held from September 09 to 11, 2025, in Clervaux, Luxembourg. This symposium brought together researchers and thought leaders to explore the latest advancements and challenges in the field of information systems engineering.

Im Controlling ist das Thema Digitalisierung mit voller Wucht angekommen. So widmete sich beispielsweise die Key Note von Dr. Ralf P. Thomas, CFO der Siemens AG, auf dem 43. Congress der Controller 2018 des ICV diesem Thema. Siemens will nach eigenen Angaben auch bei der Digitalisierung im Bereich Finanzen und Controlling Vorreiter sein. Auch die „Agenda 2020“ der Carl Zeiss AG enthält den Eckpunkt „Digitalisierung“. Im Unternehmen finden derzeit vielfältige Initiativen zur Digitalisierung des Controllings statt, was unter anderem die Digitalisierung des Berichtswesens und die Messung der Digitalisierungsaktivitäten („Digital Progress Assessment“) umfasst. Unternehmensberater, Softwareanbieter und IT-Beratungen steigern das Thema zu einem echten „Hype“: Sie suggerieren, dass Unternehmen, die nicht sofort und uneingeschränkt auf das Thema aufspringen, den Anschluss an den Wettbewerb verlieren.
This paper develops a theoretical framework for a leadership 4.0 coaching concept as a response to the economic and social transformations caused by digital disruption, with a focus on the tourism industry and its current labour shortage. It argues that addressing these challenges occurs primarily on a psychological level, through individualised communication and commitment. Consequently, leadership in the tourism industry must adopt an idiosyncratic style, where managers not only focus on the needs of their employees but also reflect on their own leadership roles and behaviours. Thus, the proposed leadership 4.0 coaching concept is built on three key pillars: 1) attachment and relationship; 2) space for reflection; and 3) attitude, charisma and followership. These pillars create a framework helping leaders foster employee-centered behaviours that enhance engagement, well-being, and personal growth. Leadership 4.0 coaching offers a pathway to tackle the labour shortage by promoting flexible, reflective, empathetic, and ethical management styles.
Urban hospitality increasingly integrates natural elements like living walls and wooden features through biophilic design. While prior research focused on sustainability and consumer behavior, this study examines how natural resources in urban hospitality impact travelers' well-being and stress reduction. A qualitative focus group study with 20 rural resort guests identified three key restorative elements: (1) wood and forest features, (2) flora and fauna, and (3) water. These were linked to feelings of longevity and freshness, fostering well-being and recovery. The second phase of this mixed-method study involves a quantitative on-site survey in six urban hotels with biophilic design using a questionnaire and PhotoVoice technique. It will evaluate how these restorative elements and outcomes can be replicated in urban settings. The findings aim to enhance restorative practices in hospitality and other urban spaces, such as hospitals or schools, and may be applicable to other stakeholder groups like employees and local communities.
Farm Products in Rural Tourism: Insights from Farm Holiday Providers in the Allgäu Region in Germany
(2025)
Culinary tourism and regional farm products have gained prominence, driven by growing demand for authentic, high-quality food. For farmers, selling such products provides a vital secondary income alongside agriculture, often complemented by offering farm holidays. This study, based on a survey of 52 farms, 33 of which offered farm products, investigates the role of farm products in the business models of farm holiday providers in the Allgäu region, Bavaria. It highlights the rising significance of culinary tourism and regional products as supplementary income streams and diversification strategies supporting rural economies. Results of the study indicate that a farms product variety is mainly driven by the farms main revenue streams, e.g. dairy and meat products. Sales and communication strategies of the farms primarily rely on direct marketing to guests and walk-in customers, often supported through farm websites or brochures. Limited resources constrain broader marketing efforts. The findings underscore farm products’ potential to enhance farm resilience and regional identity, though entrepreneurial challenges and restricted collaboration hinder growth.
