The study found that long work hours, lack of support from management, and lack of choice were highly significant in affecting nurse performance. The study collected data from 287 female nurses at NICVD and analyzed it to determine the relationship between occupational stress factors and employee performance. However, the study was limited to NICVD in Karachi.
Organisations both in the private and public sector across the globe rely on their workforce for optimum productivity which will in turn result to organisational efficiency. In this case, the need for ensuring employee job satisfaction becomes a matter of necessity to every organisation. Though, studies have been conducted by various researchers and scholars in this area, there is however the need to conduct more studies on job satisfaction and performance of an employee since the employees are believed to be an indispensable part of an organisation. Therefore, this study aims to examine the relationship between job satisfaction and performance of non-academic staff of Bauchi State University Gadau Nigeria (BASUG). Dissatisfaction is believed to be one of the major factors that demotivates and demoralise employee in the workplace which can result to lower productivity thereby affecting the overall performance of the organisation. Consequently an aggregate of two hundred and seventy questionnaires were distributed non- academic staff of BASUG based on systematic random sampling and data collected is analysed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The outcome of the analysis depicts that there is positive and significant relationship between job satisfactions on the performance of non- academic staff of the University. The study will serve as a policy guide to the management of the Nigerian Universities in areas relating to employee performance improvement through job satisfaction and it will also further make an impetus the field of organisational behaviour and human resource management

Job Satisfaction and Faculty Turnover Intentions: A Case of Pakistani Univers...IOSRJBM
Retaining faculty members has been a problem in many universities for decades. When competent teachers quit, they depart with critical knowledge and experience that are essential for maintaininga competitive advantage. The aim of this study was to measure the impact of four facets of job satisfaction on turnover intentions of faculty members of different universities of Rawalpindi/Islamabad. A 16-item, selfadministered questionnaire was used to gather data on independent and dependent variables. In questionnaire, researchers used 5 point Likert scale for variables to measure respondent’s possible responses. 110 questionnaires were completed and returned back. Pearson Correlation and Multiple Regression tests were used to test the hypothesis. The results showed that the three facets of job satisfaction i.e. remuneration, supervisory support and work life policies have significant and negative relationship with turnover intentions while recognition has insignificant relationship with turnover intentions and this relationship did not support the researchers’ prediction.

Making Management Education in India Meet Global Qualitypaperpublications3
Abstract:Management education in India is under increasing demand with close on a lakh of students passing out each year. Demand has especially increased after changes towards privatization and globalization, offering great potential to aspiring MBA students. According to the Business Standard dated 20th March 21, 2014 “India’s Marquee B-schools make a dash for global recognition”. Tangible benefits of international accreditation attract global faculty and students besides helping justify higher fees. Further, B-schools are not satisfied with a single accreditation, but want the triple-crown, namely. Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), Association of MBAs (AMBA) and European Quality Improvement System (EQUIS).
Keywords:Management education, Global recognition.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Abstract
The research underpinned the assessment of the link between professional business
education and job performance along with career progression in the case of Ka-
rachi, Pakistan. The research further tested the moderation of satisfaction level of
stakeholders. The research design of the study was quantitative whilst the sample
size of the study was 250 respondents of Karachi as the research used the primary
method of data collection using a survey questionnaire. The techniques employed
are correlation analysis, regression analysis and moderation analysis using hierar-
chical regression. The software used was SPSS. The results found that the effect
on professional business education on job performance and career progression was
found to be significant in the case of Karachi, Pakistan. Moreover, the modera-
tion was also found to be significant of satisfaction level of stakeholders includ-
ing corporate personalities, managers, students, and teachers between professional
business education and job performance. However, moderation was insignificant
between professional business education and career progression. The research was
limited to Karachi, Pakistan and to the domain of professional business studies.
In future, the improvements can be brought by conducting comparative research
between Pakistan and other developing nations like China, India or others. The
research has added value to business studies conducted in the context of Pakistan
and specifically Karachi. It has further contributed to the body of knowledge by
making it avid how stakeholders generally perceive students seeking professional
education in Pakistan.

INTRODUCTION
Business education holds immense value as students in Pakistan are now more
inclined towards business studies rather than engineering or medical or other fields
(Marwat, Shah & Azam, 2011). This is because industries have emerged and are
innovatingthemselvestoensuregrowthandhigherproductivitytoattractconsumers.
Competition is such that every industry and company is trying to stay competitive
by producing unique and innovated products. In such a situation, these industries are
providing great opportunities to business graduates as they need them to enhance
their productivity and competence (Nkomo, 2015). This has increased the worth
of business education to make students competitive enough to join the industry
confidently. This article is associated with linking professional business education
with job performance and career progression from the stakeholder’s satisfaction
perspective. This implies that the focus is stakeholder satisfaction through
association of professional business education and job performance. Perspective
of stakeholders is an important component of this article such stakeholders mainly
include faculty of business education, corporate managers and business students.
Assessment of moderating role of stakeholder satisfaction in association between
professional business education, job performance and career progression is also
discussed in the proceeding section.
Research aim and objectives
The aim of this study is to assess the role of business education in increasing job
performance with empirical evidence from business institutes in Karachi. For
achieving this aim, the following objectives have been drafted
• To depict significance of professional business education within the professional
life
• Todepicttheassociationofprofessionalbusinesseducationwithjobperformance
and career progression from the perspective of stakeholders
• The examine the impact of professional business education on job performance
and career progression from the perspective of stakeholders

LITERATURE REVIEW
McMurray, Dutton, McQuaid & Richard (2016) stated that business education is a
significant part of the field of education which includes students’skills to operate in
business industry. This field has emerged through increasing consumer demand and
innovation as consumers needs and demands keep on changing and organisations are
continuously in struggle to provide innovated products and services to consumers
(Colby, Ehrlich, Sullivan & Dolle, 2011). To understand this statement, most
suitable example is mobile phones which replaced landlines to facilitate consumers
so that they can carry this medium of communication with them anywhere they
go. This proves that the business field is growing like no other field and therefore,
students are now more inclined towards this field as they get amazing opportunities
in this field. Business education program is helpful for students as it enables them

to avail knowledge associated with business industry (Datar, Garvin, Cullen &
Cullen, 2010).
According to Clarke,Bajad & Trayler (2013), business education does not only
hold significance for students but it is also a need for organisations as human
resource is the most valuable asset in organisations. Organisational productivity
and profitability is highly dependent upon its labour force, huge investments can go
into waste if there is no suitable talent to enhance productivity and bring innovation.
Therefore, organisations look for business graduates who have superior knowledge
of business and are highly active and competitive to join the industry.
(Melé, Sanchez-Runde, Weber & Englehart, 2011) documented that employee’s
play major role in success of the company and companies play major role in career
development of its employees. This is how both of them have interrelated interests
so they work for benefit of one another. In this relationship, business education
plays such a role which makes it even stronger and long lasting. This implies that
in current business environment, business education cannot be underestimated
or compromised, quality business education is a need for students as well as
organisations.
Business education in Pakistan is a worth discussing topic as it has emerged by
facing numerous problems. Khan, Ahmad, Iqbal & Haider (2014) stated that for
years in Pakistan, Lahore University of Management Sciences and the Institute
of Business Administration in Karachi have had monopoly in business education.
These two reputable institutions attract the best faculty of the field which in turn
attracts brightest students to these institutes. However, the number of business
institutions offering BBA and MBA programs has increased substantially to offer
affordable and quality education to students in the field of business. (Syed, Omar
& Bhutto, 2018) reported that these affordable institutes offering quality education
have contributed a lot in development of business education because middle class
students are also able to afford quality business education.
Nadeem (n.d.) stated that despite of the growth of these institutes, there are also
few problems faced by business education in Pakistan. This is because majority
of the institutes fail to maintain international standards so students get attracted
to international institutes for business education. Javed & Ayub (2017) reported
that problems faced by business education in Pakistan include lack of highly
qualified teachers, gap between academics and profession, lack of facilities for
quality research, lack of quality teacher training in business field, slow promotion
of teachers, inadequate remunerations and many more similar problems. Kolachi
& Wajidi (2008) documented that foreign universities are major attractions for
Pakistani students who want to pursue their career in field of business which is
a major issue for Pakistan’s business education system as bright students leave
Pakistan for quality business education and may get a job there as well.
Business education’s role in job performance and career progression is vital.
According to (Osmani, Weerakkody, Hindi, Al‐Esmail, Eldabi, Kapoorand Irani,
2015), there is drastic difference between students having average business
4. IBT Journal of Business Studies (IBT-JBS) Volume 15 Issue 2 December 2019

education and knowledge and those having excellent knowledge. It is responsibility
of educational institutions to provide quality education to students. Major problem
is the lack of link between academics and profession which is usually seen in
business education programs (Muff, 2012). They focus on theoretical underpinning
without telling students about how corporate environment works. Due to this issue,
even bright students are unable to perform satisfactorily in their jobs since they do
not know how to apply theoretical knowledge practically. This problem is the major
reason why students prefer to study in abroad rather than Pakistan because business
education here is theory based and practice is missing (Motowidlo & Kell 2012).
Daud,Abidin, Mazuin Sapuan & Rajadurai (2011) reported that organisations have
to invest on those individuals who do not possess sufficient business knowledge;
they have to conduct training sessions to make them comfortable with practical
business environment. Sometimes, such training may be a success or sometimes
it may fail. Therefore, effective business education is still imperative so that
business problems and issues are faced and dealt correctly. Not every organisation
provide effective training to its employees, they prefer to hire those who already
have sufficient skills and knowledge to deal with business issues effectively and
efficiently. Finch,Peacock, Levallet & Foster (2016) stated that an individual who
understands business issues and knows how to deal with them is more confident
than those who need guidance and training in all matters. Therefore, business
education holds great worth in job performance and career progression.
According to Neck and Greene (2011),corporate managers believe that business
students are their valuable assets that contribute the most towards organisational
productivity and success. When individuals are hired, organisation’s expectations
are high based on their qualification, knowledge and skills. Ng and Burke (2010)
reported that quality business education is the reason why students of particular
institutes are preferred over others while hiring because corporate managers are
aware of the quality of business education each institute is offering. They have been
hiring for quite sufficient period of time due to which they have experienced the
performance of students of different institutes and this aspect forces them to prefer
few institutes over others.
On the other hand, faculty perspective shows that teachers in business institutes
find it necessary to develop business skills of students so that they perform
competitively in their jobs. Ganyaupfu (2013) stated that faculty members are
associated to different fields and through their experience, they know each
educational requirement of students so they create opportunities for them to make
them able to manage business requirements. According to Xu and Yang (2010),
teachers in educational institutes are in struggle to create educational standards to
produce employees for business organisations that can effectively manage their
business requirements. Student perspective regarding business education includes
many important factors and the quality of education is important for students as
they want a career in business field. Ryan,TilburyandTurnbull (2011) stated that
there are factors that students consider important such as quality of education,
teachers’ qualification and experience, facilities to conduct researches, teaching
style of faculty, examination system etc. These factors must be considered by these
5. IBT Journal of Business Studies (IBT-JBS) Volume 15 Issue 2 December 2019

institutions to ensure student satisfaction.
Finch,Hamilton, Baldwinand Zehner (2013) reported that stakeholders play major
role in relationship between business education and job performance. Corporate
managers look for students graduated from top business institutes so that highly
skilled and competitive employees are hired that can help the company in achieving
higher productivity and profits.According to (Rosenberg, Heimler & Morote, 2012),
satisfaction of corporate managers is necessary because they play significant role in
lives of students; they hire them and provide them opportunities for career growth.
Jackson (2013) documented that they believe that the relationship is positive and
significant therefore, quality business education is preferred while hiring. Further,
according to Yadapadithaya & Anuradha (2016),students also play vital role in this
relationship as they want to perform excellent at their job which is possible through
quality business education. Therefore, they look for institutes providing quality
education to help them with their career.
Conceptual Framework of the Research
The conceptual model of the research has been presented and discussed in this
section. The independent variable of the study is professional business education
whilst there are two dependent variables including job performance and career
progression. Given this, the moderating role of stakeholders’ satisfaction level
has been considered. The relationship pertaining to professional education and
job performance is supported by the study of Faruk (2018). Besides, the research
of (Talib, Salleh, Amat, Ghavifekrand Ariff, 2014) supported another association
which is between professional education and career progression. However, the
mentioned research was conducted in a generic context whilst the following research
is in a business context. In addition, (Dorasamy & Letooane, 2015) asserted that
stakeholders’expectations can be managed with effective higher education affecting
the performance and career. Therefore, the model has undertaken stakeholder’s
satisfaction level as a moderator between independent and dependent variables.
The model has been presented as follows:

Designing Hypotheses
In the context of model formulated in the previous section, this section presents the
related hypotheses as per the model and objectives of the study. Different studies
support following hypotheses, for instance; Faruk (2018) and Talib et al., (2014).
H1: The effect of professional business education on job performance is significant
pertaining to institutes operating in Karachi
H2:The effect of professional business education on career progression is significant
pertaining to institutes operating in Karachi
H3: The moderation of satisfaction level of stakeholders is significance between
professional business education and job performance
H4: The moderation of satisfaction level of stakeholders is significance between
professional business education and career progression
METHODOLOGY
The research method can be deemed as a path-way followed in order to attain the
objectives of the study (Walliman, 2017). In accordance with the research onion
presented by (Saunder Lewis & Thornhill, 2007), the methodology comprises of
research philosophy, approach, strategy, design of the study, sample size, data
collection method, technique of sampling, and data analysis techniques. Given this,
the following research inculcates positivist philosophy whilst the underlying reason
can be considered as the use of objectivistic ontology as numeric data has been
employed which is also demarcated by Scotland (2012). Besides, the researcher
has used a deductive approach as already devised theories have been tested in the
following research and the choice is justified from the study of Soiferman (2010).
On the other hand, the employed strategy is explanatory based on the experiment
of Karachi’s respondents. Therefore, the selected research design of the study is
quantitative whilst the method pertaining to data accumulation is primary. The
researcher utilised the survey questionnaire as a tool or instrument in this concern.
Pertaining to the sampling technique, the researcher used probability sampling
which further narrows down to random sampling. In probability, equal chances are
given to the respondents or subjects (Etikan, Musa & Alkassim, 2016). The purpose
of using simple random sampling is associated with the fact that it is easy to be
implemented whilst it further represents a larger population. Moreover, in the case
of random sampling, population is not required to be further fragmented to extract a
sample therefore, its procedure’s simplicity has convinced the researcher to opt for
this method. However, the sample size undertaken in this study is 250. According
to Hashim (2010), the sample of 250 can be generalized over the entire population
is the population size is 400 or more.
Another significant aspect of research methods is the technique used for analysing
the accumulated data. In this concern, the following research has employed
correlation analysis firstly in order to analyse the association of job performance,
satisfaction level of stakeholders, professional business education and career
progression with each other. Subsequent to this, the researcher has analysed
the regression for the assessment of the direct effect of professional business
education on job performance and career progression separately. However, for
7. IBT Journal of Business Studies (IBT-JBS) Volume 15 Issue 2 December 2019
Page | 141
the evaluation of moderation of stakeholders’ satisfaction level, the researcher has
used hierarchical regression where interaction effect has been firstly computed and
then tested. The cut-off point for this study is taken to be 5% (0.05). The software
package that has been used in the study is SPSS. In addition, prior to the analysis
using the aforementioned techniques, the researcher has tested the reliability of
accumulated data using Cronbach Alpha. In accordance with (Ursachi, Horodnic
& Zait, 2015), the acceptable value pertaining to alpha is 0.6. Nonetheless, as per
the table presented as follows, all variables have reliable alpha which is above 0.6
whilst the minimum alpha as per this study is 0.684 and maximum is 0.815.
Table 1: Reliability Analysis
Variables Cronbach Alpha
Job Performance 0.754
Career Progression 0.684
Professional Business Education 0.804
Satisfaction Level of Stakeholders 0.815
Data Analysis
The following section of the study pertains to the analysis of the data as per the
described methodology. Foremost, the analysis of demographic variables has
revealed that sample comprised of 66% males and 34% females. Moreover, 41.6%
of the total sample belongs to the age group from 26 years to 40 years. Besides,
27.2% belonged to 41 years to 50 years, 23% were below 25 years and 8% were
above 50 years. Subsequent to demographic analysis, the researcher has conducted
correlation analysis, regression analysis, and moderation with hierarchical
regression in this section. The section also discusses the results in detail whilst
summary of hypotheses testing has also been presented. In addition, the discussion
has been done to assess the deviation of the findings of this study with previously
carried out researches and to discuss coinciding findings.
Correlation Analysis
Gogtay & Thatte (2017) explained correlation as a technique to analyse the linear
association between two variables. The analysis basically is analysed using the
direction of the relationship and its magnitude which can be weak, moderate or
strong. The results pertaining to the correlation of job performance, satisfaction
level of stakeholders, professional business education and career progression has
been presented as follows:

In accordance with the table of correlation analysis, the association of professional
business education with the job performance is computed to be positive which
asserts that both variables move in the same direction whilst the magnitude is
seen to be moderate. However, the association of professional business education
with the career progression is seen to be positive with a stronger magnitude which
entails direct strong association. Besides, the moderator of the study which is the
satisfaction level of stakeholders has also been tested with other variables. The
variable is seen to be positively associated with all others with moderate magnitude.
However, pertaining to the significance of the relationships as per the mentioned
variables, the p-value of each relationship can be seen as lower than 0.05 (5%)
which is the cut-off point of the study. Hence, all associations can be inferred as
statistically significant.
Analysing Effect of Professional Business Education on Job Performance
In the following section, the researcher has tested the effect of professional
business education on job performance whilst moderation has been further tested.
In this concern, the independent variable is professional business education and
the predictor is the job performance. The significance level in this analysis is the

same (5%) where firstly regression has been computed and then moderation of
stakeholders’ satisfaction level between the dependent and independent variables.
The results have been delineated and elaborated as follows:

a. Dependent Variable: Job Performance
In accordance with the results, two models have been computed where in the first
one, only professional education was considered as independent variable whilst
in the second model, moderator and interaction effect has been further computed.
Firstly, both models are statistically significant which has been asserted as per the
f-statistic because its p-values are lower than the chosen cut-off point which is .05.
Given this, the R-squared in the first model was 30% which surmised that variance
in professional business education explains 30% variance in the job performance
of the in the case of Karachi. The independent variable PBE is also found to be
10. IBT Journal of Business Studies (IBT-JBS) Volume 15 Issue 2 December 2019
Page | 144
significant which has p-value below 5% (p-value < .05). The coefficient is found to
be positive which means that enhancement in PBE would lead to enhancement in
job performance of the respondents belonging to Karachi, Pakistan.
On the other hand, another model has undertaken moderation where the R-squared
can be seen as 35.7%. This shows that the variability of the model improved with the
inclusion of the moderator and interaction term. The variance in PBE, moderator and
interaction is cumulatively explaining 35.7% variance in the job performance in the
case of Karachi. The f-statistics along with its relative p-value is also computed to
be highly significant which can be seen in the table as the sig value is .000 (p-value
< .05). In addition, pertaining to individual coefficients, the main effect can be seen
as insignificant as p-values are greater than .05 yet the interaction effect is positively
significant. This asserts that PBE improves with the inclusion of satisfaction level
of stakeholders and the level of significance is high as it rendered the main effects
insignificant. Thus, the satisfaction level of stakeholders significantly moderates
the relationship between PBE and job performance concerning Karachi, Pakistan.
Analysing Effect of Professional Business Education on Career Progression
Here, the analysis has been conducted in a similar manner yet the only difference
is in the dependent variable which in this model is career progression. The results
have been presented and discussed as follows:

As per the outcome of the models, both models are statistically significant as sig
values of f-statistics are .000 (p-value < .05). Pertaining to the first model, the
11. IBT Journal of Business Studies (IBT-JBS) Volume 15 Issue 2 December 2019
Page | 145
variable of PBE is found to have a positive and significant effect on the career
progression in the case of Karachi. Therefore, betterment in PBE would lead to
betterment in career progression. Given this, the R-squared is computed to be
67.3% which surmises that variance in PBE is explaining 67.3% variance in career
progression.
Besides, in the case of the second model, the only significant variable is PBE with
positive effect. However, the moderator’s direct effect on career progression is
computed to be insignificant as p-value is .379 (p-value> .05) and the interaction
effect also have an insignificant impact on career progression. This infers that the
moderating effect of satisfaction level of stakeholders between PBE and career
progression is not found. Moreover, the R-squared on the model is computed
to be 69.2% which is showing the variance explanation of PBE, moderator and
interaction term in the case of variance in career progression. It is can be seen that
R-squared improved by 1.9% overall from the first model tothe second model.
Thus, in the case of career progression satisfaction level of stakeholders can be
declared insignificant.

DISCUSSION
The research underpinned the assessment of the link between professional business
education and job performance along with career progression. The research further
tested the moderation of the satisfaction level of stakeholders. The results found that
the effect on professional business education on job performance was found to be
significant in the case of Karachi, Pakistan. The findings coincided with the research
conducted by Faruk (2018) in Indonesia and the positive effect was derived. In this
concern, the dynamics of Pakistan can be compared to that of Indonesia. Given
this, the research further found that the effect of professional business education on
12. IBT Journal of Business Studies (IBT-JBS) Volume 15 Issue 2 December 2019
Page | 146
career progression was significant pertaining to Karachi.
The evaluation of this study is supported by certain evidence mentioned in the
study conducted by Talib et al., (2014) whilst the study of Watts (2006) also stated
the same that career-based education helps in opening opportunistic doors of
employability which further aids the career to progress. Moreover, the moderation
was also found to be significant of satisfaction level of stakeholders including
corporate personalities, managers, students, and teachers between professional
business education and job performance. The inferred results are supported by the
statement highlighted by (Dorasamy & Letooane, 2015). Cumulatively, it not only
validates the findings but also has certain contribution and implications.
Concerning the findings of the study, the research has contributed to the literature
significantly specifically in the case of business studies pertaining to Karachi
and Pakistan. As findings stated that job performance is significantly moderated
through stakeholders’ satisfaction level whilst career progression is insignificantly
moderated by the same, it implies that short-term phenomenon is more preferable
when it comes to Karachi or Pakistan. Rather than career progress of the students the
satisfaction level of the stakeholders including corporate figures, teachers, students,
or managers is derived from what the person performs at job. Muff (2012) has stated
that there is a void between academia and professional education which this research
can fill with its analysis that academia needs to prepare students to be competent and
competitive at job to produce effective results because stakeholders are concerned
more for their job performance than their career. This research therefore, adds
value and guides the students of Pakistan and specifically Karachi who are at the
verge of entering into universities or colleges for professional education to consider
effective job performance as their goal while acquiring professional education so,
the stakeholders can be satisfied while summing up the job performance, the career
would automatically progress. The study further infers the spontaneous nature of
the stakeholders in Karachi who want prompt results from the professionals and
focus on their productivity at job. Hence, with the findings, the students acquiring
professional education can seek guidance.
CONCLUSION
Conclusively, it can be stated that professional business education affects both
career progression and job performance in the case of Karachi, Pakistan. Moreover,
the moderating effect of satisfaction level of stakeholders between professional
business education and job performance was also found to be significant. Besides,
the association between all the variables was moderate, positive and significant.
Therefore, it can be asserted that all objectives have been avidly attained be it
comprehension of professional educations’ significance, its effect and association
with job performance and career progression or moderating role of stakeholders’
satisfaction level. Moreover, the hypotheses was also tested where the proposition
pertaining moderating role of stakeholders’ satisfaction level between professional
education and career progression was unsupported. Cumulatively, this research has
added value to the existing studies concerning the subject of business, professional
education and employment. Principally, it guides the students who are seeking

professional education in the domain of business to focus on job performance
while acquiring education which can ultimately develop their career. Also, small
achievements in the case of effective job performance would pave way for their
career to progress. It has further contributed to the body of knowledge by making it
avid how stakeholders generally perceive students seeking professional education
in Pakistan. This becomes more specific when it comes to Karachi yet it can be
generalised to Pakistani context. However, it can be further generalised to the
countries having similar dynamics in comparison with Pakistan. Nevertheless,
the research in future can be improved while conducting a comparative analysis
between different cities of Pakistan. In addition, comparative analysis can be
further conducted between Pakistan and other developing nations like China,
India or others. The moderation of other variables can be also tested, for instance;
social constructs whilst it can be further conducted considering science or other
professional domains in future.
