Predictive Validity Of Person-Environment Fit On The Hiring Desirability Of Software Engineers, Lucija Velican
Predictive Validity Of Person-Environment Fit On The Hiring Desirability Of Software Engineers, Lucija Velican
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Person-environment (P-E) fit, particularly in recruitment, has gained significant attention, expanding beyond the traditional focus on job-applicant compatibility to include alignment with team and organizational dynamics. Despite its importance, there is no consensus on how to effectively measure this fit, which limits its predictive power for employee outcomes. This quantitative correlational study addressed this gap by examining the predictive validity of congruence between candidates’ psychological characteristics and various facets of the work environment among software engineers. Drawing on Schneider’s attraction-selection-attrition model, the study examined congruence at multiple levels (candidate-team, candidate-leader, and candidate-role) and its influence on hiring desirability. Secondary data …

Information Technology Managers’ Strategies For Implementing Data Governance, Dieudonne Mayi
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
As businesses increasingly view data as a strategic asset, effective data governance (DG) frameworks are crucial for ensuring data integrity and compliance. IT managers face challenges in fully integrating DG with IT governance, leading to issues like inconsistent data availability, compromised security, and costly outcomes such as data loss, legal actions, and compliance penalties. Grounded in Abraham et al.’s DG conceptual framework and Khatri and Brown’s unified DG framework, this qualitative pragmatic study investigates the strategies IT managers use to implement successful DG within organizations. A sample of 11 IT managers from U.S. companies with established DG practices participated in …

Staff Education Project To Train Providers On The Use Of The Sbar Communication Tool To Improve Reimbursement Rates, Teona Natoya Eririogu
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
In this doctoral project, I focused on educating healthcare staff on using the situation-background-assessment-recommendation (SBAR) communication tool to improve documentation practices and reimbursement rates from Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance companies. My goal for the project was to determine if training on the SBAR tool would improve healthcare providers' knowledge of how to use it for documentation. The facility had experienced significant financial losses, exceeding $1 million in the last two quarters of 2023, due to inadequate documentation. Inaccurate or incomplete documentation, particularly in medical records, hinders the ability to bill appropriately for services rendered, impacting patient care and financial …

Barriers And Facilitators To Culturally Appropriate Cancer Health Education For Kenyan Immigrants In Washington State, Rael Kobe Odengo
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Access to culturally linguistically appropriate services, such as cancer information in languages other than English that consider a group's cultural beliefs, traditions, values, and practices, is increasingly recognized as a global health communication priority. However, African immigrants face significant barriers to accessing these resources, making it difficult for them to make informed healthcare decisions. Grounded in the conceptual framework of the Andersen behavioral model of health care utilization and the social determinants of health, the purpose of this study was to explore the barriers and facilitators to accessing culturally appropriate cancer health education by Kenyan immigrants in Washington State.

Effective Strategies To Mitigate The Impact Of Cargo Shipment Abandonment, Ozoemenam Peter Peter Ohagwu
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Business leaders in multiple U.S. exporters refuse to pay freight charges and abandon their cargo shipments, leaving shipping business leaders with monetary losses. Some small and medium-sized U.S.-based shippers lack effective strategies to address the risk of cargo shipment abandonments. Grounded in the theory of constraints, the purpose of this qualitative pragmatic inquiry study was to explore the effective strategies used by small and medium-sized U.S.-based shippers to successfully mitigate the risk of cargo shipment abandonment. The participants included three U.S. shipping industry leaders from non-vessel-operating common carriers and three from vessel-operating common carriers, all with an average of 25 …
Home And Community-Based Case Manager Job Satisfaction During The Covid-19 Public Health Emergency, Timothy Frederick Conroy
Home And Community-Based Case Manager Job Satisfaction During The Covid-19 Public Health Emergency, Timothy Frederick Conroy
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
There is limited information on the impact on Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) case managers’ job satisfaction as COVID-19 policies altered the way their jobs were performed. Many HCBS case managers in the United States experience high levels of turnover and burnout, resulting in difficulty maintaining appropriate service levels. Public health emergency (PHE) policies used to limit exposure of high-risk community-based individuals to COVID-19 resulted in various adjustments to traditional job responsibilities. The purpose of this research was to qualitatively study the impact of HCBS policy changes on the job satisfaction of HCBS case managers prior to and throughout the …

Strategies And Best Practices To Improve Job Satisfaction And Determine Optimum Workload For Nurses In Texas Long-Term Care Facilities, Oluwayomi Toyin Olatunde
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Long-term care facilities have experienced a workforce crisis for years. This workforce primarily encompasses direct care workers that include registered nurses (RNs), licensed practical nurses (LPNs), and certified nursing assistants (CNAs). This integrative review searched empirical and non empirical literature within the past five years related to long-term care facilities nurses’ perceptions of the impact of workload on job satisfaction.
