The conceptual model and relationships among independent and dependent variables were tested by partial least squares-structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM), using SmartPLS3. The study found no significant relationship between the IC components (human capital, structural capital and relational capital) and performance of the SMEs. However, a significant relationship was observed when the variables were jointly considered. The study provides SMEs owners the awareness on the need to manage their IC effectively and efficiently in order to maximise long-term profitability and competitiveness, and also offers insightful implications to academics and practitioners on the importance of IC components on Nigerian SMEs performance.","PeriodicalId":35448,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Learning and Intellectual Capital","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2019-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42655854","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 study is based on grounded theory and theoretical sampling, 17 interviews were done with the farmers and experts of the Department of Education of Agriculture Jihad Organization until reaching theoretical saturation. Analyses carried out through continuous comparison showed 300 codes, 42 concepts and 6 categories in actual and theoretical coding process, which led to emergence of a final model focused on the core category, called organisational memory recovery. In conclusion, this study presents effective variables on unlearning about agricultural activities, particularly replacement of traditional irrigation methods with modern methods for optimal utilisation of water resources in the form of a model with an emergent approach. This study develops the first native model of organisational unlearning.","PeriodicalId":35448,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Learning and Intellectual Capital","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2019-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49293750","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 paper adopts ordinary least square and quantile regression techniques to test the objectives of study. The empirical evidence reports a variation in the results between the estimation of both econometrics techniques. In brief, our reported findings indicate that as the board increases its monitoring activities, the ICE of the firms is not affected. Also, the influence of the intense monitoring on market valuation is more apparent and obvious in small and medium corporations. This study contributes to current debate by providing a further understanding of the relationship between the ICE, firm valuation and intensity of monitoring.","PeriodicalId":35448,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Learning and Intellectual Capital","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2019-06-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46179888","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}

With applying Glaserian approach of Grounded Theory, semi-structured interviews were conducted concerning elites' attitudes, orientations, and behaviours towards protean and boundary-crossing working activities and the infrastructures of their organisational operationalisation. Qualitative analysis unfolds an interactive family of theoretical coding around job transition as a basic social structural process (BSSP). The findings determines how physical movements act as a medium elites employ to prepare a context for their protean movements aligning with psychological ones which constitute nesting paths evolving around role transitions due to job improvements. These inferred employability movements posits as elites' proactive adaptability behaviours for securing employability by acquiring movement capital through life-designing trajectories activities. Finally, operational solutions are proposed to cultivate talent phenomena by facilitating elites' employability behaviours across the organisation.","PeriodicalId":35448,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Learning and Intellectual Capital","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2019-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44004737","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}

There is a clear and growing evidence that the role of leaders in process of organisational change has a significant effect on success, and their actions and behaviours directly influence the actions that enable change in the workplace. There is no agreement in the existing literature on aspects of leadership which are essential for success of change. The present study tends to find out the actions taken by organisational leaders to implement the change plans successfully. Data analysis uses content analysis strategy and MAXQDA software. Findings indicate that the actions taken by leaders for successful implementation of change plans in the organisation are changed in two organisational and human dimensions and involve 15 categories.","PeriodicalId":35448,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Learning and Intellectual Capital","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2019-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47456342","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}
