The research used descriptive research design with a mixed approach of qualitative and quantitative data. The results determined the sample size of 217 respondents from 500 people using Krejcie and Morgan (1970). However, only 188 respondents participated in this research with response rate of 86.6% of 217 respondents. The results of the first objective revealed that environmental scanning plays a significant and a positive effect on organizational performance in Rwanda with overall mean of 1.621 tending to high score of to a very great extent. The results of the second objective revealed that strategy formulation plays a significant and a positive effect on organizational performance in Rwanda with overall mean of 1.324 tending to high score of to a very great extent. The results of the third objective revealed that a big number of respondents strongly agreed that strategy implementation plays a significant effect in organizational performance. Lastly, the results of the fourth objective revealed that strategy evaluation plays a positive and significant effect in performance of NPD Ltd. Hence, these are supported by correlation analysis results which revealed that there is a positive and significant relationship between environmental scanning and budgetary performance (r=0.717 and sig=0.00<0.01), and quality performance (r= 0.783 and sig=0.00<0.01). The strategy formulation and timely performance (r=0.647 and sig=0.00<0.01), and quality performance (r= 0.696 and sig=0.00<0.01). Another positive and significant relationship between strategy implementation and timely performance (r=0.650 and sig=0.00<0.01), strategy evaluation and quality performance (r= 0.707 and sig=0.00<0.01) level of significance. Hence, in conclusion since all the predictors of strategic management process have a positive and significant relationship with the measures of organizational performance, this implies that there is a positive and significant relationship between strategic management process and organizational performance of NPD Ltd in Kigali City of Rwanda. It is in this regard the research would like to recommend to managers, evaluators, and strategy formulators as well as implementers to ensure that strategies are well formulated, implemented and evaluated to ensure organizational performance. This recommendation is made because the results of the study indicated that strategic management process has a positive effect on organizational performance.

Despite this awareness, a persistent decline was observed in the organizational in terms of profitability and their performance outlook remained poor. The study, therefore, examined the effects of diversification strategy on the profitability of selected F&B firms in Lagos State, Nigeria. Therefore, this study examined the effect of diversification strategy and profitability of selected food and beverage firms in Lagos State, Nigeria. The study adopted a survey design, the population is given as 12, 495 regular employees of six selected F&B firms in Lagos State, Nigeria. The research advisor sampling table was used to select a sample size of 491 from the population while data was collected using a valid and reliable questionnaire with a Cronbach alpha value greater than 0.7. The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential tools. Multiple Regression Analysis was used to determine the impact of the variables using the Statistical Package for Science Solutions (SPSS) version 24. Diversification has a significant effect on profitability (β = 0.947, t = 47.805, R2 = 0.839, p-value = 0.001). The study concludes that diversification has a significant effect on profitability of selected Food and Beverage (F&B) firms in Lagos State, Nigeria. Thus, the study recommends that Food and Beverage firms can also explore new distribution channels, invest in marketing and branding, and enhance their operational efficiency to achieve better profitability. It's also essential for them to keep track of the latest market trends and consumer preferences to develop products and services that meet the evolving needs of their customers.

The “subcultural” clusters formed by the subjective choices of a city’s residents divide the living spaces of the city and create residential differentiation. A study of this phenomenon would help to facilitate the allocation of urban resources and the formulation of relevant development strategies. In recent years, Hangzhou, one of the major developed cities in China, has seen a gradual increase in the proportion of its non-local population. Employing principal component analysis and K-means clustering, this study investigated the city’s spatial differentiation of living spaces at the community level and identified the social clustering areas. The Shannon-Wiener index and the index of dissimilarity were used to examine the degree of residential segregation in each administrative district. The results showed that the functional distinctions among the districts of Hangzhou were pronounced and had certain degrees of class solidification. A certain spatial coupling was observed between residential differentiation and housing prices. More reasonable allocations of social resources would help to ameliorate the negative effects caused by the spatial differentiation of living spaces.","PeriodicalId":14424,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Strategic Property Management","volume":"255 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73075251","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As firms continue to adapt to the changes caused by the pandemic through various work patterns, the potential implications for the office market are unclear. Using data from Knight Frank’s (Y)OUR SPACE (2021) survey, this paper employs probit and multinomial models to examine the relationship between COVID-19 related remote working and changes to firms’ office space strategies. The study confirms that the pandemic has significantly influenced firms’ medium-term office space use strategies, and the results show that firms’ perception of their employees’ work-from-home experience has influenced their strategy review. The results specifically show that a positive WFH experience increases the likelihood that firms will reduce their total space quantity, reduce their density of occupation, and negotiate shorter leases in the medium term. We further observe that the pandemic is likely to have weaker effects on space quality than on space quantity, implying that economic factors remain core priorities in future office space use strategies, while social and environmental factors may remain secondary. These insights extend the literature beyond the economic determinants of office space demand to other social factors.","PeriodicalId":14424,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Strategic Property Management","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83818058","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As such, the prices in such transactions should differ from those in what we consider to be normal arm’s length transactions. In this regard, social capital theory can be used to analyze these transactions. The empirical data on housing transactions conducted in Taipei City from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2018 were collected for this study. The empirical results showed that the prices in transactions involving debt relations and urgent purchases and sales were 22.6% lower than those in normal arm’s length transactions. The prices in transactions with government agencies were 48.9% lower than those in normal arm’s length transactions. The prices in transactions with first-degree, second-degree, and third-degree relatives were respectively, 57.3%, 53.1%, and 50.3% lower than those in normal arm’s length transactions. The prices in transactions involving friends were 28.0% lower than those in normal arm’s length transactions. The empirical results highlight the importance of the impacts of personal relationships or social relations on housing prices in special relationship-based transactions. The results also supported the social capital hypothesis.","PeriodicalId":14424,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Strategic Property Management","volume":"54 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86757879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The constructs and factors in housing decision-making were justified using the literature, confirmed with experts in the field, and organised as a decision hierarchy that formed the foundation of a survey. The investigation combined the analytic hierarchy process and Student’s t-test, both of which are credible methods, to facilitate a grounded process for mind mining. The importance of constructs/factors were thus assessed on a numerical basis, and a set of unforeseen insights were explored for the different parties of interest (e.g., buyers, construction companies, agents, asset managers, etc.). Opinion gaps between different sample groups were identified. This set of empirical knowledge filled the gap in the literature. It is noteworthy that among the constructs in the region studied, (housing) ‘conditions’ dominated ‘price’, while ‘location and transport’ was the least important. A ‘non-paradigmatic shift’ in people’s total housing preference structure, which changed gradually with decreasing population density and increasing plain geography from the north to the south between nearby metropoles, was observed, despite the niche but commensurable cultural norm in East Asia being the overall scenario of the island. Some existing claims about the housing preferences in this area were also either supported or rebutted by the quantitative evidence(s).","PeriodicalId":14424,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Strategic Property Management","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2023-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84562162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
