How The Usage Of It Is Effecting Academic Libraries, Mohammed J. Sarwar
How The Usage Of It Is Effecting Academic Libraries, Mohammed J. Sarwar
Mohammed J Sarwar
The purpose of this treatise is to determine how information technology is affecting the usage of services in the academic library. Various studies suggest that there has been a decline in usage of traditional face-to-face reference services. The majority of the college students prefer to use the Web instead of frequenting the library. Librarians and educators are concerned that these students are developing poor research skills if they only use the internet for research. Many of them are not familiar with the best electronic resources. Librarians may have less reference work but they will need to offer instruction on using …

Management Regimes And Its Impact On The Wetland Fisheries Management In Assam, Ganesh Chandra
Management Regimes And Its Impact On The Wetland Fisheries Management In Assam, Ganesh Chandra
Ganesh Chandra
Assam is endowed with copious aquatic wealth in the form of beels, swamps, ponds and rivers. The floodplain wetlands (beels) extending over one lakh hectare, constitute the most important fishery resource of the state. The beels are considered as one of the most productive ecosystems owing to their characteristic interactions between land and water system. These wetlands are the common property resource and under different management regimes. These wetlands are under various management regimes, i.e., private management (individuals and groups), fishermen cooperative management, Community-based fisheries management (decentralized management, Government works as facilitator) and open access. Most of the unregistered beels …

Axiomatic Social Choice Theory, David Randall Jenkins
David Randall Jenkins
Ordered Relations Theory’s two axioms ultimately enable (individual: society) well-being transitivity inasmuch as they impound Social Choice Theory’s impossibility theorem, impossibility-resolving axioms, and all such further regressive impossibility theorems and impossibility-resolving axioms.

Workplace Mentoring And Career Resilience: An Empirical Test, Ridhi Arora Research Scholar, Santosh Rangnekar Associate Professor
Ridhi Arora
The present study sought to investigate the role of mentoring relationships in predicting career resilience. The study adopted a cross-sectional survey based research design using a sample of 205 managers from public and private sector organizations in North India. Mentoring relationships were measured under the 2 broad categories of career mentoring and psychosocial mentoring in alignment with previous studies. The findings showed that psychosocial mentoring acts as a significant predictor of career resilience;however, career mentoring was not found to have any significant influence on career resilience. Given research thus reiterated the significant contribution of mentoring in influencing career outcomes such …
Changing The Faces Of Leadership: Executive Advancement For Professionals Of Color, Hannah Roth
Changing The Faces Of Leadership: Executive Advancement For Professionals Of Color, Hannah Roth
Hannah Roth
There is a need for leadership development in companies to help prepare the next generation of leaders and to promote growth for employees. Additionally, the lack of diversity within the top ranks of leadership needs to be addressed. There is a need for more development programs that increase diversity in top leadership so that leadership at the highest levels of these organizations better reflect the demographics of the United States. There are numerous studies that demonstrate many professionals of color do not advance in their careers as quickly as their counterparts. This paper discusses how leadership development strategies tailored for …
Tripping And Falling Into The Future: An Eolithic Perspective, Keri Schwab
Tripping And Falling Into The Future: An Eolithic Perspective, Keri Schwab
Keri Schwab
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Thirty years ago, Dustin and McAvoy (1984) published an essay in Environmental Ethics titled “Toward Environmental Eolithism.” The article compared and contrasted two distinct orientations to environmental planning and management: the design mentality and the eolithic mentality. The authors concluded that the more popular design mentality lacked obscure eolithic mentality was a superior orientation to environmental planning and management. Environmental Ethics and then discuss how an eolithic perspective might complement the strategic planning process. We begin by describing the similarities between strategic planning and the design mentality as well as the shortcomings of strategic planning in a rapidly …

Report On The Tanzanian Public Accounts Committee In Comparative Perspective, Riccardo Pelizzo, Abel Kinyondo
riccardo pelizzo
The purpose of the present policy brief is to compare and contrast the organization and the activity but also the working practices and the functioning of the Tanzanian PAC with that of the Public Accounts Committees (PACs) from the East African region. The evidence presented here shows that Tanzania’s PAC is line with best practices at the global level. Specifically, the PAC is well above the regional average in terms of several organizational features, and that, most importantly is the most active PAC in the region.
Critical And Creative Thinking And Structured Analytic Methodologies: From “Think Flow” To “Work Flow”, James L. Harper
Critical And Creative Thinking And Structured Analytic Methodologies: From “Think Flow” To “Work Flow”, James L. Harper
James L Harper
Training prepares for the “known.” Education prepares us for the “unknown.” That unknown should spark greater analytic dialogue within the intelligence enterprise regarding what our analyst training and education baseline should encompass as well as address the training strategies necessary to drive the Army intelligence community to a more refined analytic point. Before delving into what those analytic swing mechanics consist of, let us first review the premium placed on our analysis today and the operational and intelligence processes in order to better understand how and when our analytics come into play.
Public Accounts Committees In Eastern And Southern Africa. A Comparative Analysis, Riccardo Pelizzo, Abel Kinyondo
Public Accounts Committees In Eastern And Southern Africa. A Comparative Analysis, Riccardo Pelizzo, Abel Kinyondo
riccardo pelizzo
This article provides the first and most comprehensive analysis of Public Accounts Committees (PACs) from Eastern and Southern Africa building on the work of McGee, Jacobs, Stapenhurst, and Staddon. By analyzing an original set of data, this article shows that PACs in these two regions are bigger, have more staff members, and are more likely to be chaired by opposition Members of Parliament than they have in other countries and regions. Furthermore, the data show that Eastern and Southern African PACs are more active than their counterparts elsewhere. However, lack of political will and limits to the range of powers …

Modele Biznesowe A Kapitał Intelektualny Przedsiębiorstwa, Anna Ujwary-Gil
Modele Biznesowe A Kapitał Intelektualny Przedsiębiorstwa, Anna Ujwary-Gil
Anna Ujwary-Gil
Streszczenie:Rozwój koncepcji modelu biznesowego oraz kapitału intelektualnego przedsiębiorstwa datuje się na lata 90. ubiegłego stulecia. Zaskakujący pozostaje fakt, że w ostatnich dwóch dekadach pojawiło się niewiele publikacji omawiających wpływ kapitału intelektualnego na tworzenie, funkcjonowanie czy innowacyjność modeli biznesowych, a koncepcja modelu biznesowego nie znajduje szerszego odzwierciedlenia w literaturze z zakresu zarządzania i pomiaru kapitału intelektualnego przedsiębiorstwa. Tymczasem w ramach tych dwóch koncepcji istnieje wiele obszarów analiz, które się pokrywają, a do których bez wątpienia należą: tworzenie wartości, wartość dodana, przewaga konkurencyjna, umiejętności, kompetencje, czy zasoby niematerialne. Celem artykułu jest wskazanie wspólnych elementów tych koncepcji, zarysowanie kierunków dalszych badań, szczególnie jeśli …

Игры В Призрачном Мире Теневой Банковской Деятельности, Bryane Michael
Брайн Майкл
В своем анализе мы, ско- рее, делаем акцент на способах, позволяю- щих теневому банковскому сектору прино- сить пользу отдельным предпринимателям и компаниям на быстроразвивающихся рынках. Кредиты от таких «небанковских финансовых учреждений», как их часто на- зывают, способны помочь в ослаблении се- рьезных кредитных ограничений во многих анализируемых нами экономических систе- мах. Вследствие этого мы предпочли сосре- доточиться на том, каким образом отдель- ные предприниматели и компании могут предоставлять недорогие кредиты, предла- гать инвесторам доход, генерируемый та- кими кредитами, и при этом по-прежнему получать прибыль.

Patent Overlay Mapping: Visualizing Technological Distance, Luciano Kay, Nils Newman, Jan Youtie, Alan L. Porter, Ismael Rafols
Jan Youtie
This paper presents a new global patent map that represents all technological categories and a method to locate patent data of individual organizations and technological fields on the global map. This overlay map technique may support competitive intelligence and policy decision making. The global patent map is based on similarities in citing-to-cited relationships between categories of the International Patent Classification (IPC) of European Patent Office (EPO) patents from 2000 to 2006. This patent data set, extracted from the PATSTAT database, includes 760,000 patent records in 466 IPC-based categories. We compare the global patent maps derived from this categorization to related …

Compound Interest And The Power Of Saving, Richard H. Serlin
Richard H. Serlin
This is an article with an included assignment that I give to my personal finance 1 students. The first part talks about the power of compound interest. I go into depth about the intuition why it's so powerful, why it takes off, and has been called the eighth wonder of the world. I've haven't seen anywhere else an extensive explanation of the intuition like I have here.
In the second part I give the students a nice assignment to see how much their savings can grow if they invest even a modest amount consistently, month in and month out, in …
Timing Is Everything? An Empirical Analysis Of The Determinants Of Service Quality Provision, Olivier Chatain, Alon Eizenberg
Timing Is Everything? An Empirical Analysis Of The Determinants Of Service Quality Provision, Olivier Chatain, Alon Eizenberg
Olivier Chatain
We utilize a unique database from a large legal services provider to examine how service quality responds to the firm's available capacity, and to the nature of the firm-client relationship. We develop empirical measures of both the (internal) level of resources available to the firm at different points in time, and of the (external) value creation for customers. Our results indicate that service quality increases in the amount of the firm's available resources, suggesting that quality adjustment can be used as a means of tackling capacity constraints. We also find that service quality increases in the number of previous successful …
Regional Institutional Development, Political Connections, And Entrepreneurial Performance In China's Transition Economy, Wubiao Zhou
Wubiao Zhou
While previous research has emphasized the role of political connections in facilitating entrepreneurial performance in China’ early reform period (1978 – 1999), this study argues that regional institutions had been increasingly conducive to entrepreneurial activities and, thus, also played a key role in China’s entrepreneurial success during that period. The purpose of this study is twofold. First, it aims to demonstrate how regional institutional development facilitated entrepreneurial performance in China. Second, it aims to understand how formal institutional development among Chinese regions affected the role of political connections. Using a two-level hierarchical dataset on Chinese private enterprises, this study finds …
