On this theme, the current study is an attempt to connect transformational leadership with strategic thinking capability by establishing a diagnostic research tool. The aim behind establishing such a research instrument is to evaluate strong or weak corporate operations and practices, being followed at the three selected work locations of a European multinational company. Following construct theory, this study's mid-range theorizing revealed that, the employees at the three target work locations are not significantly empowered and therefore incapable to take independent work decisions. Such incapability, in return, obstruct the process of effective corporate strategic leadership. In accordance with the study findings, the categories of \"intellectual stimulation\" and \"individualized consideration\" are identified as the weak areas, linked to the work leadership operations. In addition, the aspects, namely, \"work situation\" and \"situational referencing\" are identified as weak processes associated with the strategic thinking construct. Furthermore, \"investigative approach\" and \"situational handling\" appeared as potentially strong strategic elements. The above referred findings are critically significant to support future testing and refinement of the proposed research tool. The current study offers wider implications for specialists, practitioners and researchers through the process of re-evaluation or cross comparative analysis of the study results.","PeriodicalId":242450,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The authors' work deals on the development of a suspicious person detection system using a new insect behaviour algorithm called artificial social cockroaches ASC based on a new image representation method n-gram pixel. It has as input a set of artificial cockroaches human images to classify them hide into shelters classes suspicious or normal depending on a set of aggregation rules shelter darkness, congener's attraction and security quality. Their experiments were performed on a modified MuHAVi dataset and using the validation measures recall, precision, f-measure, entropy and accuracy, in order to show the benefit derived from using such approach compared to the result of classical algorithms KNN and C4.5. Finally, a visualisation step was achieved to see the results in graphical form with more realism for the purpose to help policeman, security associations and justice in their investigation.","PeriodicalId":242450,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The overall objective of this paper is to investigate how manufacturing companies make use of different manufacturing practices or bundles of manufacturing practices to develop certain sets of capabilities, with the ultimate goal of supporting the market requirements. The authors propose a technique that can effectively take managerial preferences and subjective data into consideration, along with quantitative factors. The tool that is proposed here relies on the use of a more effective version of the Analytical Hierarchy Process AHP called the Analytical Network Process ANP to help integrate managerial evaluations into a more quantitatively based decision tool, data envelopment analysis DEA. In this paper, these two techniques, when used together, can provide subjective and objective evaluations for manufacturing strategy decision makers. An illustrative example provides some insights into the application of this methodology. The research contributes to several insights to the research area of manufacturing strategy and to practitioners in manufacturing operations. A model that investigates process improvement investments, assuming that alternative process improvement initiatives exist, is then presented.","PeriodicalId":242450,"journal":{"name":"Int. J.

The objectives of this paper are, firstly, to explain that the adoption of Green IS by managers is directly influenced by their intention, which is assumed to be influenced by their attitude towards Green IS, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control and personal norms. In the framework, attitude towards Green IS is influenced by managers' positive and negative affect in response to Green IS. The findings of this study show that subjective norms are reflected from three sources containing primary, secondary and work referents. Perceived behavioral control includes self-efficacy, monetary cost-benefit assessment and the ethical climate of the organization. Personal norms are influenced by awareness of consequences, ascription of responsibilities and personal values including self-transcendence and self-enhancement. Secondly, the paper aims to assess the importance of the individual factors that influence the organizational decision-makers to adopt Green IS. Accordingly, the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution TOPSIS is applied to rank the importance of the factors incorporated in the proposed framework. The data for this study is collected by conducting an online survey through a structured questionnaire-based instrument comprising 5-point Likert-type scales. The findings of this study contribute to the Green IS literature by improving the decision-making process in IS adoption for the purpose of environmental sustainability enhancement. It is hoped that the proposed model would help to clarify the relative importance of the psychological and socio-demographic factors influencing the adoption of Green IS by organizational decision-makers.","PeriodicalId":242450,"journal":{"name":"Int.
