In FTSE 100 companies, men still hold finance director positions at a rate seven times higher than women, a trend reflective of the broader industry. This qualitative inquiry delves into the factors contributing to the success factors and obstacles to leadership faced by female finance directors in the United Kingdom. By conducting interviews with accomplished female finance directors, the study aims to identify the factors that prevent and enable females to become leaders in the finance industry. Notably, this research identifies enduring social and cultural hurdles obstructing female progress, and how they can be supported as they progress their career. A significant finding emerges: many interviewed women endorse individuals who align with their assertive work values, which often align with masculine traits. Females have to conform to a working environment and practices, and this impacts negatively on their social life, job satisfaction and identity. Given the target-driven nature of finance, the prospect of a radical top-down transformation is generally seen as unlikely. Consequently, female leaders face limitations in their capacity to serve as \"gatekeepers\" for advancing the careers of fellow women. Recommendations include a departure from the performance-centric approach entrenched in finance.

Retaining and satisfying staff is the hardest thing a business can do in today's cutthroat economy. Being a business owner means you have to find ways to cut expenses without sacrificing the quality of your net outcome. Therefore, although employers want more from their staff, employees also want more from them. Rewarding workers for putting out their best effort to come up with innovative ideas that improve company efficiency and further enhance both the financial and non-financial performance of the firm is one of the most effective ways to inspire employees. Kenya School of Law faces challenges pertaining to rewards strategies due to inadequate budgetary allocation and prolonged policy development processes that have affected employee performance. Recently, the Kenya School of Law reported reduced staff and staff dissatisfaction as among the reasons for not meeting its objectives. This thus justified the need as to why this study was carried out, with the aim to examine reward strategies and the performance of employees in Kenya School of Law. The specific objective of the study was: to analyze the effect of healthcare benefits on the performance of employees in Kenya School of Law. The study utilized a descriptive research design. The study targeted 155 respondents who are employees of the Kenya School of Law. The census approach was adopted as a result of the limited size of the research population. Both open and closed-ended questions in the questionnaire tool were employed to collect primary data from the respondents. Quantitative data was analyzed through descriptive statistics using Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 22 and Microsoft Excel and through inferential statistics mainly through multiple regression analysis. The study concludes that healthcare benefits should be taken into consideration since they had a positive and significant effect on the performance of employees at the Kenya School of Law.

This study was designed to assess the effects of employee development and welfare on the performance of the staff of Accra Technical University, Ghana. A total of 100 respondents comprising 21 senior staff and 79 junior staff were used in the study and a questionnaire was used to gather data. Findings indicated that short courses, seminars, workshops, delegation, coaching, and participation are some of the employee development activities of Accra Technical University. Welfare packages include first aid equipment, sitting facility, medical facilities and leave travel concessions. Factors that generally affect employee development and welfare are limited opportunities, organizational culture, and the attitude of top management. Among the recommendations made was that management should have more organized and efficient development program opportunities for its employees to help retain them. Additionally, management should improve the welfare packages of employees.

The RACI methodology offers a structured approach to defining roles and responsibilities within a project or process, improving clarity, communication, and accountability. The guidelines outline the steps involved in implementing the RACI methodology in the recruitment process. This includes defining roles and responsibilities, identifying accountable parties, determining consulted individuals, and ensuring informed stakeholders. Clear communication and transparency are emphasized throughout the process to keep stakeholders engaged and informed. The article also highlights the benefits of using the RACI methodology in recruitment, such as clearly defined roles, improved communication, streamlined decision-making, and enhanced collaboration. However, it acknowledges the challenges that organizations may encounter, including role ambiguity, resistance to change, limited stakeholder engagement, inadequate communication, and difficulty in defining accountability. To overcome these challenges, organizations are advised to invest in change management strategies, provide comprehensive training and support, foster open communication channels, and regularly evaluate and refine the implementation of the RACI methodology. By following these practical guidelines and addressing the challenges effectively, organizations can enhance their recruitment processes, ensure the involvement of key stakeholders, and make well-informed hiring decisions.
