This study examines the impact of learning orientation dimensions on the relationship between information technology capability and the quality of management accounting information, with technological uncertainty as a moderating variable. The study found that commitment to learning, shared vision, and open-mindedness positively impact information technology capability. It also found that information technology capability positively impacts the quality of management accounting information. However, it did not find technological uncertainty to moderate the relationship between information technology capability and the quality of management accounting information. The study was limited by a lack of data connection between variables.

This document discusses total quality management (TQM) implementation in higher education institutions. It reviews the literature on critical success factors for TQM implementation. The review focuses on implementations, impacts on organizational performance, and indicators that encourage TQM adoption. The findings suggest a conceptual model of TQM critical success factors and their impact on higher education institution performance. Non-implementation of TQM was sometimes due to institutions prioritizing funding over continuous improvement culture. Proper training can help address issues in the implementation process.

Abstract
- Institutions of higher learning face a new situation on
higher education. It holds some novel threats and presents some
fresh opportunities. Given the uncertainty of the future, collage
and university administrators cannot allow their organizations to
drift. This study assessed the managerial skills development of the
administrators of the five (5) well-established private institutions
of higher learning in Batangas, Philippines. A combination of
descriptive-purposive research design and survey method was used to
determine the managerial dimensions exhibited by the administrators.
Mean, Likert Scale, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Pearson Product
Moment Correlation Coefficient and and Bivariate Correlation were
used. There is no significant difference in the assessment of the three
groups of respondents in terms of communication skills and solving
problems effectively. However, there is a significant difference in terms
of self leadership, managing the task effectively, managing the people
effectively, and managing interpersonal relations effectively.
There is
a very high significant relationship among all the managerial skills
dimensions required of the institution administrators using the same
managerial dimensions. The managerial skills of the administrators
have to be enhanced to improve the quality of people in the institution.

This document summarizes a case study of problems faced by a large financial organization in Pakistan in managing its human resources, specifically its Management Trainee Program. Interviews with 45 management trainees revealed issues like lack of proper on-the-job training, trivial work assignments, long working hours, and lack of pay increases despite high demand and better compensation elsewhere in the industry. This led to low morale, increased turnover, and a "mutiny" among trainees. The case was analyzed through the lenses of motivation theories like equity theory, Herzberg's theory, Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory, expectancy theory, and McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y. It was found that trainees felt undervalued compared to peers elsewhere,

This document summarizes preliminary findings from a survey of 30 Malaysian public listed companies regarding their environmental performance and financial development. It describes the companies' facility characteristics, environmental management practices, motivations for environmental practices, and responses to public environmental policy. The majority of companies engage in global or local markets and serve other manufacturers or facilities within their own firms as primary customers. While most allocate no budget specifically to environmental matters, the preliminary analysis suggests companies are aware of environmental issues and undertake some environmental management practices.

This article examines the relationship between firm resources and product innovation performance (PIP) from a resource-based view (RBV). It classifies firm resources into six categories: physical, reputational, organizational, financial, human/intellectual, and technological. The RBV predicts that intangible resources like these will be important determinants of firm success. The article aims to determine which resources contribute most to PIP among Malaysian small and medium enterprises (SMEs). A survey of SMEs found that intangible resources like human/intellectual assets had a stronger relationship with PIP, consistent with expectations of the RBV.

This study examines the perception of managerial competencies significant for gulf college educational leaders and managers. Twenty three (23) respondents are utilized in the study to measure their management skills in terms of communication, planning and administration, teamwork, strategic action, selfmanagement and multicultural. The researchers made use of descriptive-evaluative method. This is a research method that focuses on present condition with a purpose of discovering new truth such as increased extent of knowledge, new generalization, an increased insight into factors that are operating, discovery of new causalrelationship, or more accurate formulation of the problem to be solved. Specifically, descriptive-evaluative is a design that will appraise carefully the worthiness of the current study. Results show that managerial competencies of the respondents have no significant relationship with their profile. Although the result is not significant, still it is important to note that managerial competencies are reflection of effective performance of every educational leader and manager of the institution. Hence; the degree of influence of the respondents’ profile and their managerial competencies displayed that the degree of influence is not significant since the pvalue is consistently below 0.5. However, it is worthy to consider that only fifteen (15) percent of the combined indicators influenced the managerial competencies of the respondents.

Abstract
The 21st Century, however, presupposes an organizational systemic
preparedness for gaining and retaining competitiveness in a global and native
business scenario. Knowledge organizations bring in challenges significantly
different from what has been so far experienced. The early 20th Century
predominantly focused on the manufacturing or the production priorities of
the firm. Knowledge Management has become a major competitive tool for
the present day organizations. Knowledge management is the acquisition and
use of resources to create an environment in which information is accessible
to individuals and in which individuals acquire, share and use that
information to develop their own knowledge. Further, employees are
encouraged and enabled to apply their knowledge for the benefit of the
organization. “Only a Positive Attitude changes our life, but it will change the
world around us”. Know-how in the organization is built around four areas
of action: Responsiveness, Innovation, Competency and Efficiency. These
four areas, which is called as “RICE model”, cover all of the different ways
in which can use knowledge to help the company succeed. Responsiveness

concerns how the company takes in vital information from its surroundings;
its customers, competitors, suppliers, and others who affect – and are affected
by-the company’s performance. Innovation concerns how the company uses
ideas and information to change what it does and how it does it. Competency
concerns to the skills that the people and teams need to deliver products and

Introduction
Firms today are beginning to realize that they attract and hire top
intellectual talent only for them to manage and supervise yet another team of
knowledge workers through the organization structure. This imposes upon
senior management time and talent to focus on making such knowledge
workers to work hand in hand with colleagues to experiment and innovate, to
work in teams that have goals that cut across functions and job competencies.
The wide use of teams and their consequent effectiveness has proven beyond
doubt the success of making people work in structured as well as
unstructured environments with only their goals in perspective.
The work force in turn having realized this potential are willing to take
additional responsibilities, willing to be empowered and consequently
operate with enhanced command over with their knowledge and its
application in untested areas.
The Primary challenge of an entrepreneur is to motivate top talent; to
seize opportunities by utilizing their human resou.

This document discusses a study on the rigour and relevance of HR education in business schools in Karnataka, India. It conducted a survey of 238 HR students from 23 institutions across university types. The survey found that 35% of students viewed certain core HR subjects as redundant, particularly those related to HR skills and development. Another 21% saw subjects on industrial relations and labor laws as redundant. 15% viewed subjects on organizational development and change management as redundant. However, 23% felt all HR subjects were important. The results varied significantly between university types, with state university students more likely to view certain subjects as redundant compared to central university students who felt all subjects were important.

This document provides an abstract for a paper that was presented at the 4th International Conference on Emerging Trends in Scientific Research in 2015. The paper studied whether having an MBA degree impacts the performance of the top 100 companies in the world based on revenue. The researchers analyzed data on the CEOs of these 100 companies from Forbes Magazine in 2014, including their education background. A regression analysis found no evidence of a relationship between a CEO's education and firm performance. There was also weak evidence that CEOs with an MBA degree from a top school led to better operating performance. Overall, the research concluded that having an MBA is not a prerequisite for becoming CEO of a large corporation and does not necessarily increase the chances of becomingUniversity Education in Development of Human Resources as A Precursor to Effe...

Introduction
Firms today are beginning to realize that they attract and hire top
intellectual talent only for them to manage and supervise yet another team of
knowledge workers through the organization structure. This imposes upon
senior management time and talent to focus on making such knowledge
workers to work hand in hand with colleagues to experiment and innovate, to
work in teams that have goals that cut across functions and job competencies.
The wide use of teams and their consequent effectiveness has proven beyond
doubt the success of making people work in structured as well as
unstructured environments with only their goals in perspective.
The work force in turn having realized this potential are willing to take
additional responsibilities, willing to be empowered and consequently
operate with enhanced command over with their knowledge and its
application in untested areas.
The Primary challenge of an entrepreneur is to motivate top talent; to
seize opportunities by utilizing their human resou.

This document discusses a study on the rigour and relevance of HR education in business schools in Karnataka, India. It conducted a survey of 238 HR students from 23 institutions across university types. The survey found that 35% of students viewed certain core HR subjects as redundant, particularly those related to HR skills and development. Another 21% saw subjects on industrial relations and labor laws as redundant. 15% viewed subjects on organizational development and change management as redundant. However, 23% felt all HR subjects were important. The results varied significantly between university types, with state university students more likely to view certain subjects as redundant compared to central university students who felt all subjects were important. The study aims to understand how HR education needs to evolve to meetIs MBA Degree a Necessary to Be a CEO of Large Corporation: The Case of Fortu...

This document provides an abstract for a paper that was presented at the 4th International Conference on Emerging Trends in Scientific Research in 2015. The paper studied whether having an MBA degree impacts the performance of the top 100 companies in the world based on revenue. The researchers analyzed data on the CEOs of these 100 companies from Forbes Magazine in 2014, including their education background. A regression analysis found no evidence of a relationship between a CEO's education and firm performance. There was also weak evidence that CEOs with an MBA degree from a top school led to better operating performance. Overall, the research concluded that having an MBA is not a prerequisite for becoming CEO of a large corporation and does not necessarily increase the chances of becomingUniversity Education in Development of Human Resources as A Precursor to Effe...

1) The paper presents a probability analysis of slope stability using the Monte Carlo simulation method to account for uncertainty in parameters like pore water pressure, cohesion, and internal angle of friction.
2) The results of the Monte Carlo simulation method are compared to other recognized methods of slope stability analysis like Bishop simplified, Fellenuis, Janbu simplified and corrected, Spencer and Lowe-Karafiath which use limit equilibrium.
3) The probability analysis finds that the failure probability is most affected by the standard deviation of pore water pressure, cohesion, internal angle of friction, and correlation coefficient between parameters, though individual limit equilibrium methods only account for one of these parameters in each analysis.

Nippon Hotel, İstanbul-TurkeySome Biochemical Markers that Can Predict Pre-Eclampsia
This document summarizes an abstract from the 9th International Scientific Conference on Applied Sciences and Engineering. The abstract discusses some biochemical markers that can predict pre-eclampsia. It states that tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) directly damages vascular endothelial cells and increases endothelial permeability, which may result in secretion of vasoactive substances and increased vascular permeability and coagulation. This involvement of TNF-α in the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia means it may identify patients at high risk for the condition and serve as a marker of severity. Preeclamptic women also have abnormal lipid metabolism and profiles due to pre-eclampsia, and this alteration in lipid metabolism may play a key role in developing symptoms.

Independent Directors’ Resource Provision Capability in Publicly-Listed Companies in Malaysia
- 1. Abstract of Emerging Trends in Scientific Research, 2014, Vol.1 DOI: 10.18488/journal.1002/2014.1/1002.1 1st International Conference on Emerging Trends in Scientific Research 15-16 March, 2014 Pearl International Hotel Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia Conference Website: www.pakrdw.com 95 Paper ID: 393/14/1 st ICETSR Independent Directors’ Resource Provision Capability in Publicly-Listed Companies in Malaysia Saeed Pahlevan Sharif1 --- Khong Kok Wei2 1,2 Business School, Taylor's University Subang Jaya, Malaysia Abstract This paper by considering concentrated ownership and corporate culture in Malaysia argues that independent directors in Malaysian publicly listed companies plays a significant role in providing resources that companies need for their operation and their role is more salient during the crisis period. We select 289 samples randomly from publicly listed companies on Bursa Malaysia for the pre-crisis (2007) and the crisis (2008) periods. Hypotheses are tested by using paired sample t test with bootstrapping technique. The results show that when companies faced the global financial crisis, they appointed new independent directors on the board. More specifically, they appointed independent directors who are capable to link the company to the government and expand the companies’ networks with other large companies. Besides, after the crisis, companies did not increase number of independent directors who are bankers, lawyers, or have social connections as accessing to these kinds of resources is not priority in the crisis period.
