Mathematical modeling to monitor workplace humor style and subordinate worked...Triple A Research Journal
ABSTRACT
The study monitors the effect on workplace humour style and
subordinate work attitude in telecommunication companies. The
output of staff in these organization were observed to reflect on their
subordinate work attitudes, job satisfaction and job involvement in
these companies, the study experience the positivity from these
dimensions as a function of workplace humour style in various
period at different conditions, linear trend were observed from the
predictive values, but there were variations despites the linear trend
displayed from these parameters through graphical representations.
These conditions implies that the input of subordinate work attitudes
determine the output of job satisfaction and staff efficiency
involvement, these dimensions determine the output of efficiency or
growth rate of these companies productivity, these parameters
generated the system that produced the predictive model, and
subjecting these parameters to model validation developed a
favorable fits, the study expressed the rate which these
organizational behaviour determined the efficiency of staff thus
generate positive or negative productivity, the study is however
imperative because the evaluation of these dimensions as a function
of workplace humour style has been monitored, these conceptual

Currently, organizations must face, in addition to increased competition, also to exponential technological development and innovation, and to change processes that affect all emotional states of employees. All these challenges, along with the imposed changes and the complexity of organizational and managerial tasks, involve new emotional demands and more effective actions at the corporate level, including by managing emotions in most circumstances. Thus, emotions represent valuable "resources" for innovation and added value in an economic process. Emotions were thus given an important role in provoking, moderating or mediating events and interactions in organizations.

A SOCIAL CAPITAL APPROACH TO ENTREPRENEURIAL ECOSYSTEM AND INNOVATION: CASE S...indexPub
Despite being recognised as drivers of innovative development, Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enterprises (MSMEs) frequently confront resource limitations. Therefore, enhancing the ecosystem is contingent on the entrepreneurs’ social capital, which is crucial for the success of MSMEs. This study applies the social capital approach to analyse the entrepreneurial ecosystem enrichment and its impact on the innovation process of cosmetics MSMEs. The qualitative case study of six cosmetic manufacturing MSMEs explores that social capital is a multifaceted asset to MSMEs. Through an in-depth thematic analysis of three dimensions of social capital (structural, relational, and cognitive), this study states that the innovation process is supported by the synergistic transformation of one dimension of social capital into another. Entrepreneurs sharing the common norms, rules, and language enrich their cognitive as well as relational aspects of ecosystem. The study suggests that as network ties, trust, and norms collectively influence innovation in firms, hence, social capital needs to be studied with its contextualization in the ecosystem.
OCB aims to improve performance and efficiency by establishing effective coordination, to improve workers ability & skill, and avoid no desirable behavior which is avert healthy operation of an organization. OCB classified into five categories: 1. Altruism, 2. Conscientiousness, 3. Sportsmanship, 4. Courtesy, 5. Civic virtue. This study found that older athletes has high level of OCB and there were no significant difference according to gender. Athletes were careful for other athletes and very kind to teammates. Do companies need this kind of synergy to motivate their workers and reducing turnover level?

Subsidiary Decision-making Autonomy: A Systematic Literature Review of The De...CSCJournals
Over the past decades, subsidiary's autonomy has emerged as a focal point of research concerning Multinational Corporations (MNCs). The concept of autonomy has influenced the four research streams identified by the scholars within the subsidiary-management literature, Strategy-Structure, Headquarters-Subsidiary Relationships, Subsidiary Roles and Subsidiary Development, albeit with a different degree of intensity. However, despite the high number of contributions concerning this theme, only a few have dealt with the elements determining the autonomy of firms belonging to MNCs and a complete systematization of the empirical studies containing sets of variables able to explain subsidiary autonomy is still lacking. Aiming at contributing to fill this gap, a Systematic Literature Review methodology has been implemented to guarantee a rigorous procedure. The main findings of this paper are the identification of the explanatory elements for the autonomy, named differently by scholars during the forty years of this review, such as determinants, variables, or factors, and a further contribution in clustering them according to common characteristics. Research findings contribute to consolidate and synthetize the results into a comprehensive framework, providing the basis for further directions of future research concerning firm autonomy within business groups.

1.
Compare and contrast the overarching ideas of natural systems theory and open systems theory.
Natural systems theory indicates that organizational members are members due to their commitment to attaining organizational goals. That is because there is a variation between the ‘real’ and stated objectives the organization pursues (between the operational objectives being observed and the professed objectives that are announced) (Tompkins, 2004). The difference indicates that the real agreed-upon objective is a multifaceted series of objectives with varying meanings at different organizational levels. However, unlike the natural systems theory, the open systems theory indicates the impact of the environment on the business (Tompkins, 2004). Since all systems as shown in this
assignment help
are regarded as a blend of parts where its connection makes them co-dependent, there are several ways the environment is involved in the relationship. Firstly, the system transforms into organic or open system while process or walls do not restrain the organizational structure within the business. Secondly, the organization is infiltrated, supported, and shaped by the environment surrounding the business.

Identify and explain the “zones of indifference” as explained by Chester Barnard.
Chester Barnard’s influential work focuses on compliance impulses in people and their inclination to contribute to the business instead of just responding to formal authority. Thus, the zone of indifference, according to Barnard, is a range or zone of activities that the manager gives that the worker is inclined to follow without judgment or reservation (Tompkins, 2004). An employee has certain expectations of his or her employer and there are certain contributions the worker is willing to provide to the boss. These contributions comprise quantity of applied talent and intensity of loyalty and skills. Activities beyond the zone of indifference need extra will or inducements before being conducted. A career growth and job security are examples of inducements.. However, Barnard is concerned that organizations can manipulate the zone of indifference by providing inducements that exceed sacrifices and burdens (Tompkins, 2004). Nonetheless, when the balance between burdens and inducements is negative, employees will behave in unreliable ways, malinger, or resign. To this end, that is why management that is coerced fails. See profsonly.com for a detailed explanation.

What is structural-functional theory?
The goal of structural-functional theory is to address the structure based on their roles as it views society as a structure (the varying types of institutions, the roles that institutions play, and how they are vocalized). When he noticed the similarities between the human body and society, Herbert Spencer, an English philosopher and scientist, became the forerunner of structural-functional theory (Tompkins, 2004). It may be argued that many social groups collab.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

What is the Main Question?
There are at least two questions:
1. Can we find a new definition of institutions that may help
integrating various disciplinary conceptualizations of the
term?
2. Are game-theoretic mechanisms useful for understanding
institutional change?
Matheus Albergaria de Magalhães
Endogenizing Institutions and Institutional Change (Aoki 2007)
11. Motivation Argument Conclusions References
MOTIVATION
Why are these questions important?
Institutions ("rules of the game") treated in two distinct ways:
1. Rules in a hierarchical order ("exogenous view").
2. Institutionalized rules seem as endogenously shaped and
sustained in the repeated operational plays of the game
("endogenous view").
Author will try to examine how these two views deal with the
phenomenon of institutional change.

ARGUMENT
How does the author plan to go about providing an answer?
Roadmap:
1. Game-theoretic characterization of the two views.
2. Incorporation of Bounded Rationality in the Endogenous
View.
3. Four prototypes of the Domain of the Game (Social Norm;
Political State; Economic Contracts; Organizational Structure) and
their linkages.
4. Dynamic considerations.

Aoki (2007) employs the concept of game-form to pinpoint
differences in the "exogenous"and "endogenous"views.

game.

New definition of an institution:
"An institution is self-sustaining, salient patterns of social interactions, as
represented by meaningful rules that every agent knows and incorporated as
agents’ shared beliefs about the ways how the game is to be played.”

More Insights:
Implications in an institution: summary representation
(rules cum beliefs) regarding the endogenous nature of
game-state.
Wide differences and variety in how players deal with
information sets (no need for perfect information).
Each player cannot know the choices of all other players in
their entirety.
Rule and associated beliefs need to be continually
reconfirmed and reproduced through relevant strategic play
of players.

ARGUMENT
Four Prototypes of the Domain:
1. Economic Exchange Domain: transactions of private goods.
2. Organizational Exchange Domain: player of the game in
an economic domain or an institution in the domain of
work collaboration.
3. Political Exchange Domain: two types of agents
(government and multiple private agents).
4. Social Exchange Domain: social symbols that directly
affect the payoffs of players are unilaterally delivered and/or
exchanged with "unspecified obligations to reciprocate".

Institutional Linkages:
Linked Games: players coordinate their choices of
strategies across more than one domain so as to gain more
payoffs than the sum of payoffs that could be possible
from playing in each separate domain.

ARGUMENT
Institutional Linkages:
Institutional Complementarities: even if agents do not
consciously coordinate their own choices across domains,
they regard an institution in another domain as a parameter
and accordingly choose strategies.
Powerful analytical tool: (i) it explains variety of overall
institutional arrangements across economies; (ii) it is not
conditional on consensus among agents.

Question: how do boundedly rational agents change
institutions?
Institutional change may be characterized by a quantum
shift in the equilibrium constellation of agents’ strategies.
This change can generate (and be induced by) changes in
agents’ shared behavioral beliefs.
Bounded rationality plays an essential role in the process.
Cumulative consequences of repeated plays may generate
internal inconsistencies.

Main goal of the paper: propose a unified, analytical and

CONCLUSIONS
My Impressions:
Inovative attempt to explain institutions and institutional
change (North, 1990, 1991, 1994; Nelson & Sampat, 2001) based on
Game Theory and Mechanism Design concepts (Maskin,
2007; Myerson, 2007).
Possibility of integration among distinct disciplines
(economics, history, sociology, etc.).
Clear interface with the insights of authors like Coleman
(1990) and Ostrom (2000).
Challenge: integrate new theoretical insights with better
empirical measures related to the concepts of institutions
and institutional change.
