However, there is always a debate among scholars about which leadership style is the most effective for school performance. Purposes: The purpose of this study was to investigate and analyze the relationship between different leadership styles of principals and school performance in Eritrean secondary schools. Research method: The study followed a descriptive research design, and it employed both qualitative and quantitative methods to establish a relationship between leadership styles and school performance. Using non-probability sampling, a sample (N = 375) comprising 30 schools/principals, 250 teachers, 50 students, and 45 parents participated in the study. Findings: The study explored and analyzed the relationship between the two variables, namely leadership styles of principals and school performance. The study found that principals’ leadership styles do influence school performance either positively or negatively, and it has become clear that no single leadership style is appropriate at all times. The study found that democratic and situational leadership styles have a positive impact on school performance; while autocratic and laissez-faire leadership styles were found to have negative impacts on school performance. Conclusion & recommendations: It can be concluded that no single leadership style is appropriate at all times, because no leadership style is right at all times. Based on empirical findings, contrary to established norms in the Eritrean school system, the study recommends that school principals should opt to implement principles of democratic and situational leadership for better school performance. Among other things, the study recommends that school principals should receive professional development to upgrade their leadership capacity in order to improve overall school performance and student attainment.","PeriodicalId":337628,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Personnel Policies (Topic)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133566786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Working at Heights Standard is one of the most important and safety sensitive of its kind, as falls from heights are the greatest cost to human life in the construction industry in Ontario. Today, an individual or organization, approved by the Chief Prevention Officer, may train both the Working at Heights and three year Refresher Approved Programs in Ontario. This is not the case for the fully separate approvals for the less safety sensitive Joint Health and Safety Committee Part I, Part II, and Refresher Standards. Those entering the Working at Heights Refresher program will take the theory and practical module of the training program over 3.5 hours, which emulates the work the worker has been doing for three years. While the initial Working at Heights program is sacrosanct, the three year refresher training is ripe for innovation. Under the current model entering review, the separations of standards for innovation is not possible. Refresher is a program being taken by those who already work at heights, and the ability is there, should the Ministry be willing, to find better ways of delivering more innovative, more cost effective, and more effective refresher training. First, we need a double standard.","PeriodicalId":337628,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Personnel Policies (Topic)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133508727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Leadership and conflict management have a significant effect on job satisfaction. This is illustrated with examples of the interaction between these parameters in a range of professions.

Irrespective of the complexity and variety of determinant parameters, the effect of leadership and conflict management on job satisfaction has been widely exhibited in the reviewed data of the present analysis.

We run a laboratory experiment in which employers cannot observe a worker's ability nor verify the veracity of the ability the worker claims to have. We evaluate whether sharing an identity results in employers discriminating in favor of ingroup workers, and whether it helps workers and employers overcome the adverse selection problem. We induce identities using the minimal group paradigm and study two settings: one where workers cannot change their identity and one where they can. Although sharing a common identity does not make the worker's claims more honest, employers strongly discriminate in favor of ingroup workers when identities are fixed. Discrimination cannot be explained by employers' beliefs and hence seems to be taste-based. When possible, few workers change their identity. However, the mere possibility of changing identities erodes the employers' trust towards ingroup workers and eliminates discrimination.","PeriodicalId":337628,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Personnel Policies (Topic)","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115897490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An employee benefits disclosure index and a form for collecting data about long-term and short-term employee benefit plans maintained by the companies are created and descriptive statistical analysis is applied to the collected data. The extent of employee benefits disclosure in Bangladesh is low. However, disclosure practice is not consistent across all the categories. Disclosure is very poor under IAS 19 Employee Benefits and companies do not provides any disclosure under IAS 26 Accounting and Reporting by Retirement Benefit Plans. Compliance and disclosure under local regulations in Bangladesh are very good. Recognized provident fund and gratuity fund are the two most common long-term employee benefits provided by the companies and they are sharing profits with their employees. But companies don’t provide any detailed disclosure regarding other short-term employee benefits and defined benefit plans. The disclosure pattern of foreign companies is far better than that of domestic companies. Relevant authorities should take the necessary step to ensure full compliance with disclosure provisions of IAS 19 as well as IAS 26 and encourage them to provide detailed disclosure regarding short-term employee benefits.","PeriodicalId":337628,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Personnel Policies (Topic)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115317542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study therefore was to establish the career development practices on performance of local non-governmental organizations in Kenya. The unit of analysis was the employees working with these local non-governmental organizations. A sample of two hundred and ten employees was drawn from the population. The study used purposive and stratified sampling to sample ten local non-governmental organizations from which simple random sampling was used to get the sample size. The study adopted a cross sectional design. The main instrument for collecting primary data was a questionnaire. Each participating organization filled ten questionnaires. Descriptive and Inferential analysis were used to determine the strength of association between career development and organizational performance. The findings revealed that career development has a significant effects on internal business and significantly contributes to performance of Non-Governmental Organizations. Based on the findings and conclusions, the study recommends that there is need for the NGOs to have well documented human resource plans as well as mechanisms to operationalize them; this should be done with the participation of all the staff and frequent feedback taken for possible modifications. There is need for top management to be sensitized on the potential influence of human resource planning and organizational performance to win their commitment and support.","PeriodicalId":337628,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Personnel Policies (Topic)","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114253311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nadeem, D. Siddiqui","doi":"10.2139/ssrn.3683340","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.3683340","url":null,"abstract":"Organizational ambidexterity originates from operational managers that follow together exploitative and exploratory activities. In a way from side to side which mechanisms, HR performances in Pakistan might really ease operational manager ambidexterity and further result in organizational ambidexterity is still an open question? For this, we applied (Mom, Chang, Cholakova, & Jansen, 2019) model to different sized firms of Pakistan. We hypothesize that ability and motivation enhancing HR practices effects operations manager ambidexterity through enhancing role breath and basic motivational orientation. Manager ambidexterity would further induce Organizational Ambidexterity. Moreover, Opportunity enhancing HR practices plays a complementary role in producing influencing of manager ambidexterity on Organizational Ambidexterity. A survey was directed by using a close-ended questionnaire which recognized the empirical validity. A multi-source and multilevel data were collected from 210 employees of the HR department belonging to 70 different sized firms and it was examined by means of confirmatory factor analysis and also organized equation modeling. For this, we gave 3 questionnaires to each firm. The result suggested that Ability Increasing these Practices directly and positively affect Operational Manager Ambidexterity along with the mediatory factor of Role Breadth Self-Efficacy. Operational Manager Ambidexterity in turn has a positive influence on Organization Ambidexterity. Manager and organizational Ambidexterity is also directly and positively affected by Role Breadth Self-Efficacy, Motivation Enhancing Practices, and Ability Enhancing Practices. Organizational Ambidexterity is also influenced by Opportunity Enhancing Practices. Lastly, Motivation Enhancing Practices have a positive and significant result of the mediatory factor of Intrinsic Motivation Orientation. We, however, didn’t find any significant evidence of complementarities between managers’ Ambidexterity and Opportunity enhancing HR practices in explaining Organizational Ambidexterity. The result suggests that the relationship among organizational ambidexterity along with the operational manager is liable on a firm that enhances HR practices. Along with that, our study that we scrutinized provides us important and new multilevel insights into the efficiency of strategic HR systems and in support of an individual and organizational ambidexterity.","PeriodicalId":337628,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Personnel Policies (Topic)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124377153","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
