Though this idea of Artificial Intelligence can be traced back to Greek mythology, it was only during modern history, the world witnessed the development of programme-driven computer machines. Now it has become a web of millions of codes and algorithms and is increasingly playing an integral role in every industry sector. E-commerce Industry had once disrupted the age-old traditional retail industry, especially in India where the retailers now largely depend on these platforms for their product’s sale. Today it's coming in the form of Artificial Intelligence which will be a great advantage for the retail industry. To be competitive today, retailers need to respond to their customers like never before, at the same time reducing the amount of waste and inefficiency in their operations. They can get there with data, but it takes intelligent analysis to make sense of the vast amount of data. This article analyses the emerging trends and practices of using Artificial Intelligence in retail industry in order to enhance customer experiences and result in value additions to retail businesses. \u0000Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, Retail Business, Digital Retailing, Smart Retailing","PeriodicalId":398667,"journal":{"name":"Ushus Journal of Business Management","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116577398","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}

Unstructured data, which is deemed useless, has increased due to the issue of information overload in every industry, including business, healthcare, education, etc. In this context, natural language processing (NLP) is one of the efficient technologies that may be used with more sophisticated technologies, such as machine learning, artificial intelligence, and deep learning, to enhance the interpretation and processing of natural language. In addition to improving human-computer interaction, this can also enable massive amounts of useless and unstructured data to be analyzed and formatted in numerous industrial applications. This will produce significant results that can improve decision-making and hence increase operational effectiveness.

{"title":"Indian Handicrafts: A Sustainable future of Utilitarian Consumer Goods","authors":"Akanksha Choudhary, Poonam Mishra","doi":"10.12725/ujbm.60.1","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.12725/ujbm.60.1","url":null,"abstract":"Utilitarian products are those which are designed to be useful rather than attractive. Handmade products are, thus, one among the wonders of Indian artisans, which are both useful and attractive at the same time. World-renowned Indian handicrafts are imported by several countries, which is highly supporting Indian art and culture. This is a source of livelihood for more than half of the unskilled labours and artisans of the Handicraft Industry. But with high-quality décor, luxurious items being exported to foreign lands, middleman income and trade fairs are sucking up most of the profits. Indian artisans and handicraft workers are therefore left with little income in hand except for the very famous art workers of big businessmen. This is one of the major problems which can be solved by encouraging the supply of handicrafts and domestic consumer demand. Since Indian consumers have been evolving through manufactured products, globalization, industrialization, etc. they are producing harmful effects on the environment and socio-economic conditions. Hence, it is very alarming for the handicraft sector to be able to protect its art and small business during an economic crisis. To address the small businesses and art of poor craftworkers this study intends to focus on the utilitarian aspect of handicrafts as being the sustainable alternative. The research broadly focusses on the socio-economic conditions of rural artisans and the environmental benefits of handicrafts by assessing the demand of domestic consumers and their perspectives. Based on primary data collected through the survey method, the study finds that domestic consumers are aware of the sustainable alternative handicrafts have to offer, while the utilitarian aspect has a vague response when it comes to purchasing handicrafts. However, demand for handicrafts is high because of their utilitarian aspect only. The study applied multiple regression analysis to analyse the results and conclude with suggestions based on qualitative research analysis to support rural handicraft artisans and small businesses. The study initiates a broad scope of research in consumer behaviour towards handicrafts in India as a sustainable alternative to mass production. This is one of the ways of supporting the cultural art forms as well as replenishing sustainability in the three major directions, which are economic, environmental & societal. Based on the empirical findings of this study, it concludes with the suggestions of co-existence with culture and sustainable development in India.","PeriodicalId":398667,"journal":{"name":"Ushus Journal of Business Management","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127621077","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}

Leaders with high emotional intelligence are happier and are more committed to their organization (Abraham, 2000), and they also use positive emotions to visualize the improvements in the organization’s functions (George, 2000). The study focuses on the factors of EI and leadership that influence women entrepreneurs in their entrepreneurial activities, which also impact the success of the business. The quantitative approach will be followed throughout the study to measure the variables. The descriptive study is also employed to identify characteristics of women entrepreneurs who deal with managing leadership and emotional intelligence problems. The TEIQue (Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionaire) was used to measure EI, and Vannsimpco Leadership Survey (VLS) was used to determine the leadership styles. The study was conducted among 132 women entrepreneurs from South India. The findings of the study revealed that there is a significant relationship between EI and leadership. The educational level of entrepreneurs impacts both EI and leadership.","PeriodicalId":398667,"journal":{"name":"Ushus Journal of Business Management","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114943247","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}

Numerous approaches are used to assess financial stability to determine the operation of the banks under stress conditions and to identify the indicators that affect the financial developments of the system. The relationship between the macroeconomic variables and financial markets can be assessed by performing stability mapping. Risk management can be performed by accurate identification of stability indicators, appropriate assessment of deterioration in asset quality, and other economic aspects. Financial stability reports (FSRs) and heat maps are used in several banks to assess risk factors that affect financial stability using minimal indicators. This paper provides a detailed study of the banking sector's stability mapping schemes used for risk management. Mapping schemes like banking stability map (BSM), Global financial stability map (GFSM), Self-Organizing Map (SOM), and construction of financial stability maps (FSM) are discussed. An overall evaluation of underlying parameters and inherent risk factors that affect the banking stability is performed using a banking stability map. The indicators involved in the profitability of the capital and banking sector and the financing and liquidity of the system are discussed thoroughly. Stability mapping enables appropriate risk management by identifying the crucial indicators for shock absorption in banking.","PeriodicalId":398667,"journal":{"name":"Ushus Journal of Business Management","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115140323","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}
