Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) is a crucial strategy that presents a range of benefits at both technical and organizational levels. It involves the integration of collaborative methods that facilitate the sharing, centralization, and harmonization of product information, while also streamlining the processes of information exchange. This study serves as an initial endeavor to introduce PLM within the cottage industry by examining the integration of PLM and the resulting organizational transformations. The research follows a structured three-step methodology. Initially, a comprehensive literature review was conducted to explore the concept under investigation. Subsequently, a survey is carried out within the Moroccan social economy sector to identify prevalent challenges. The survey sample comprises 500 workshops from diverse regions and sectors. An analysis of the results using SPSS and Excel software reveals that organizational and management issues constitute the primary obstacles faced by the sector, representing 40% of the total challenges. Notably, production-related challenges emerge as the most significant, accounting for 68.89% of the total challenges in the sector. In the final step, the ceramics sector is chosen as the focal industry, and a VBA Excel-based tool is developed to address the identified issues. This tool incorporates four essential functionalities -user management, order management, complaints management, and cost management- that are currently lacking in the sector, facilitating organizational change management. The proposed functionalities are subsequently implemented by two pilot ceramics companies. The outcomes of this implementation reveal various barriers that could hinder collaborative efforts post-implementation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Investigating the role of individual differences in Environmental Sensitivity for well-being and stress at work is an emerging area of research with significant potential for practical implications in organizational management and human resources. Recent studies have begun to explore how individuals with high sensory-processing sensitivity (SPS) may be more vulnerable to work-related stress than their less sensitive peers, but may also derive greater benefits from positive job resources when available. The present study aims to investigate the role of leadership style in the complex interplay between individual differences in sensitivity, stress at work, and general well-being. A questionnaire was administered through Qualtrics to a total of 317 workers from two medium–large–sized Italian companies, across two waves between May and July 2022. Findings provided support for a three-way interaction effect, with job stressors exerting an adverse effect on participants' well-being, mitigated by democratic and let-it-be leadership styles at the team level, particularly among highly sensitive individuals. Thus, our findings suggest a vantage sensitivity effect and underscore the importance of cultivating positive work climates to enhance workers' ability to cope with stressors and improve their global well-being, with particular relevance for highly sensitive individuals.

BACKGROUND: Presenteeism-induced productivity loss is a global concern. This issue is equally serious in Japan. As a "super-aged society," maintaining and promoting Japanese employees' health is an urgent issue. The combination of these factors makes it imperative to identify the factors that affect presenteeism and clarify the mechanisms driving these factors in Japanese organizations. OBJECTIVE: Only a few extant studies address presenteeism as a performance variable. Presenteeism can create serious productivity losses in Japan, as it is a "super-aged society." Hence, this study aims to clarify the relationships between humble leadership, psychological safety, and presenteeism in Japanese organizations. METHODS: We hypothesized that psychological safety mediated the effect of humble leadership on presenteeism. The data of 462 employees from 11 companies were analyzed. RESULTS: The results supported our hypothesis. Additionally, leader humility, as perceived by the followers, was positively correlated with leaders' own psychological safety in their teams. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings contribute to the existing literature by highlighting the roles of humble leadership and psychological safety in health and productivity management while accounting for cultural influences. The practical implications of our findings and future directions are also discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study examines the impact of compensation and work environment on employee job satisfaction at Al-Hoty Analytical Services in the Kingdom of Bahrain. In a competitive global market, optimizing workplace conditions is crucial for enhancing employee morale and organizational performance. A sample of 152 employees from various departments at Al-Hoty Analytical Services was surveyed using a structured questionnaire, applying saturated sampling within a quantitative research framework. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 26. The results indicate that the physical work environment significantly contributes to higher levels of job satisfaction, emphasizing the importance of a well-designed workspace. The social work environment, while positively correlated with satisfaction (p = 0.926), did not significantly impact overall satisfaction (β = 0.385, p < 0.001). In contrast, both direct and indirect compensation had significant positive effects on job satisfaction, with direct compensation having a stronger influence (β = 0.273, p < 0.001) than indirect compensation (β = 0.238, p = 0.001). The study provides practical insights for organizational leaders and contributes to the broader understanding of job satisfaction dynamics.

ObjectiveTo compare the development status of health facilities in different regions (non-agricultural and agricultural districts)and different types across four dimensions: organizational management, health environment, health activities, and health outcomes, to explore factors that may affect the current development status and summarize effective experiences, and to provide a foundation for the subsequent comprehensive, standardized, and effective promotion of health facility development and tiered and classified management.MethodsInvestigators conducted a health status survey based on the four dimensions for 50 health facilities in 16 districts of Shanghai, representing three types (including government agencies, enterprises, and communities). Evaluation forms were filled out through on-site observation and document reviews, which were developed in accordance with the Shanghai Health Settings Evaluation Standards (for trial implementation in 2019).ResultsThe average total score of health facilities in Shanghai was (88.42±11.93) points, with an overall excellence rate of 86.0%. The excellence rate of each dimension, from highest to lowest, were healthy environment (84.0%), organizational management (82.0%), health activities (78.0%), and health outcomes (44.0%). Health facilities in agricultural districts scored higher in both total score and average score on the organizational management dimension compared to non-agricultural districts. The excellence rate for the organizational management dimension was also higher in agricultural districts than in non-agricultural districts. There was no statistical significance in the total score, the score of each dimension, the overall excellence rate, and the excellence rate of each dimension among different types of health facilities (P>0.05).ConclusionThe development of health facilities among government agencies, enterprises, and communities in Shanghai has begun to yield positive results. Health facilities in non-agricultural districts should actively draw on the experience of those in agricultural districts, particularly in organizational management, adjust development ideas and planning based on their own realities, so as to continuously improve the levels of development.

This study aims to analyze the diversity of organizational management at Hili Café and Copa Café in Gunungsitoli City. Diversity in organizations includes various individual characteristics such as ability, tenure, education, communication style, and personality. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection methods through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that the diversity of the workforce in both cafes had a positive impact in improving communication and cooperation between employees. However, there are some obstacles such as salary differences between old and new employees, the tendency of employees to associate with people from the same area of origin, and a reduction in the number of employees due to religious holidays. To overcome these issues, both cafes implemented measures such as non-discriminatory selection, training periods, briefings, and work calendar adjustments. The conclusion of this study is that diversity in organizational management at Hili Café and Copa Café can improve productivity and service quality if managed well, although there are still challenges that need to be overcome to optimize the benefits of diversity.

This paper presents a novel examination of the SAFe® (Scaled Agile Framework®) through the theoretical framework of Stafford Beer's Viable System Model (VSM). By applying the principles of VSM, renowned for its systemic and cybernetic approach to organizational management, we offer a unique perspective on the structural and functional aspects of SAFe® in its various configurations: Essential, Large Solution, Portfolio, and Full. The study employs functional modeling to delineate the congruencies and divergences between VSM and SAFe®, aiming to illuminate how VSM's systemic insights can enhance the implementation and efficacy of SAFe® practices. This interdisciplinary approach not only contributes to a deeper understanding of SAFe's® capabilities and limitations but also demonstrates the practical applicability of VSM in contemporary agile environments. The findings propose actionable insights for organizations seeking to optimize their agile practices through a more structured, systemic lens, thus bridging a crucial gap in agile and systems thinking literature. This paper is poised to benefit practitioners and theorists alike, offering a fresh perspective in the agile systems domain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Aging is a challenge to global development. This challenge is particularly significant for China because it has the largest elderly population worldwide. The proportion of aging population continues to increase, and solely relying on government efforts to meet the needs of the elderly is inadequate. Hence, involvement of social organizations in elderly care services is needed. Their core members exhibit higher sense of responsibility and identification with the organization than regular members, thus profoundly affecting organizational development. Based on the Social Capital Theory, this study employed a multistage stratified random sampling method to examine the social capital stock of elderly social organizations and their core members across six cities in Anhui Province, China. Chi-square tests analyzed the relationship between the core members' demographic factors and individual performance. Independent-sample t-tests assessed the relationship between social capital and individual performance. Finally, binary logistic regression models determined the factors influencing the individual performance of core members. Social networks within core members' social capital and the internal social capital of elderly caring social organizations (ESOs) affect the individual performance of core members. Therefore, organizations should provide more training opportunities for core members to expand their networks. Cultivating a shared language and vision as components of social capital can enhance organizational cohesion and operational stability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background Primary health care plays an important role in providing populations with access to health care. However, it is currently facing unprecedented workforce shortages and high turnover worldwide. Objective This study examined the relationship between organizational culture and turnover intention among primary care providers in China. Methods A cross-sectional survey was administered in four large cities in China, Tianjin, Jinan, Shanghai, and Shenzhen, comprising 38 community health centers and 399 primary care providers. Organizational culture was measured using the Competing Value Framework model, which is divided into four culture types: group, development, hierarchy, and rational culture. Turnover intention was measured using one item assessing participants’ intention to leave their current position in the following year. We compared the turnover intention among different organizational culture types using a Chi-square test, while the hierarchical logistic regression was used to examine the relationship between organizational culture and turnover intention. Results The study found that 32% of primary care providers indicated an intention to leave. Primary care providers working in a hierarchical culture reported higher turnover intention (43.18%) compared with those in other cultures (p

This paper studies the problem of coordination and supervision of virtual teams and their capabilities. The goal is to develop a model suitable for managing virtual student teams specialized in the development of smart environments. The developed model is based on SAFe and DevOps, which when combined provide us with a framework for the evaluation of team capabilities in an academic environment. Additionally, DevOps principles can be more efficiently leveraged through an agile methodology to provide students with a better understanding of continuous value delivery. Through the application of the proposed model, virtual student teams gained practical experience in self-organization and virtual team management while being efficiently monitored and guided through the project lifecycle. Virtual student teams were likewise encouraged to be more agile, as this change in mindset is imperative in business, and as such must also be adopted in academic environments. By incorporating best practices of the corporate environments into the existing curriculum, we have proven that by adopting the proposed model these changes can be feasibly incorporated to the satisfaction of both the students and their future employers.

Research background: Deep and machine learning-based algorithms can assist in COVID-19 image-based medical diagnosis and symptom tracing, optimize intensive care unit admission, and use clinical data to determine patient prioritization and mortality risk, being pivotal in qualitative care provision, reducing medical errors, and increasing patient survival rates, thus diminishing the massive healthcare system burden in relation to severe COVID-19 inpatient stay duration, while increasing operational costs throughout the organizational management of hospitals. Data-driven financial and scenario-based contingency planning, predictive modelling tools, and risk pooling mechanisms should be deployed for additional medical equipment and unforeseen healthcare demand expenses. Purpose of the article: We show that deep and machine learning-based and clinical decision making systems can optimize patient survival likelihood and treatment outcomes with regard to susceptible, infected, and recovered individuals, performing accurate analyses by data modeling based on vital and clinical signs, surveillance data, and infection-related biomarkers, and furthering hospital facility optimization in terms of intensive care unit bed allocation. Methods: The review software systems employed for article screening and quality evaluation were: AMSTAR, AXIS, DistillerSR, Eppi-Reviewer, MMAT, PICO Portal, Rayyan, ROBIS, and SRDR. Findings & value added: Deep and machine learning-based clinical decision support tools can forecast COVID-19 spread, confirmed cases, and infection and mortality rates for data-driven appropriate treatment and resource allocations in effective therapeutic and diagnosis protocol development, by determining suitable measures and regulations and by using symptoms and comorbidities, vital signs, clinical and laboratory data and medical records across intensive care units, impacting the healthcare financing infrastructure. As a result of heightened use of personal protective equipment, hospital pharmacy and medication, outpatient treatment, and medical supplies, revenue loss and financial vulnerability occur, also due to expenses related to hiring additional staff and to critical resource expenditures. Hospital costs for COVID-19 medical care, screening, treatment capacity expansion, and personal protective equipment can lead to further financial losses while affecting COVID-19 frontline hospital workers and patients.

This community service aims to enhance knowledge and expertise in organizational management and children's play module preparation for the Forum Taman Baca Masyarakat (FTBM) in Jepara Regency. The service used the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method, with the participants being representatives of TBM managers who are members of FTBM. A questionnaire was used as the instrument for evaluating the activity, and the results of which were analyzed descriptively. The service results indicate a significant increase in workshop participants' understanding. A total of 9 participants (30%) who were initially in the low understanding category succeeded in increasing to the high category, including 18 participants (60%). The workshop activity on preparing children's play modules also made a positive contribution to the participants, particularly in terms of module preparation. There was a significant increase in understanding, where 10 participants (33.33%) who were initially in the low understanding category succeeded in increasing to the high category, involving 20 participants (66.67%). This activity was successful in achieving positive results and supporting the development of participants’ skills and understanding of organizational management and module preparation.

Like COVID-19, new infectious disease outbreaks emerge almost annually, and studies predict that this trend will continue due to a variety of factors, including an aging population, ease of travel, and globalization of the economy. In response to episodic public health crises, governments and organizations develop, implement, and enforce policies, procedures, protocols, and programs. The epidemiological triad is both a model of disease causation and fundamentally used to design and deploy such control measures. Here we adapt this model to the workplace setting and use the epidemiological triad to characterize the related ethical challenges in implementing the control measures employers face as a guide for a workplace intervention framework. Through this approach, our aim is to show how an integrated ethical framework, grounded in epidemiological principles, has important implications for how we categorize, understand, and resolve the difficult decisions that emerge in the workplace under pandemic conditions.

By qualitatively analyzing the case of a higher education unit and reflecting upon its experience of digitalization, the current study attempts to gain insights into how and to what extent digitalization takes place, and what factors facilitate/hinder digitalization efforts in the Turkish context. Data for the present study were collected through individual semi-structured interviews and focus groups. An inductive thematic analysis was employed to identify emerging themes within the data. The findings indicate that there have been both intraorganizational and top-down initiatives towards digitalization, though the latter seems to have failed in addressing intraorganizational needs and priorities. The findings also suggest that the factors that have contributed positively to digitalization are the instructors’ personal interests and availability of many digital tools. However, negative student attitude towards digital tools, problems with online assessments, failure to initiate and maintain a strategic organizational approach towards digitalization and faculty’s reluctance to step outside their comfort zone significantly hinder digitalization.

The object of the study is to examine conflicts that occur in hotel companies, how they affect their structure, the quality of the work environment, the well-being of their workers, and their perception of the management of labor relations and conflict. For any company that wants to orient its efforts towards the fulfillment of the SDGs established in the 2030 Agenda, in this case, SDG 8 on decent work for all, it is key to understand which variables have the greatest influence on the management of labor relations and conflict. The aim is to identify those areas where they should focus their efforts to avoid organizational malaise that leads to economic and emotional costs derived from lower productivity and increased absenteeism, thus affecting their competitiveness. Information was collected to validate the objectives using a questionnaire with 57 items completed by workers with at least 5 years of experience in the sector. Using a simple linear regression, 10 key variables have been identified to explain the global satisfaction of employees, such as treatment, respect for company values, and the existence of defined processes and responsibilities.

Mi Lin,&ast; Menghua Xie,&ast; Zhi Li School of Public Policy and Administration, Chongqing University, Chongqing, People’s Republic of China&ast;These authors contributed equally to this workCorrespondence: Zhi Li, Email cqulzzz@126.comPurpose: Error management is an important element of organizational management research, and organizational error tolerance has gradually received attention from researchers in recent years. Most previous studies concluded that organizational error tolerance positively affects both the perceived organizational support and job performance of public sector employees, but few have examined the relationship between organizational error tolerance and change-oriented organizational citizenship behavior.Methods: This research examines how organizational error tolerance affects change-oriented organizational citizenship behavior using an experimental approach (Study 1, N = 162 and Study 2, N = 228) and a field survey approach (Study 3, N = 377).Results: The results indicate that organizational error tolerance increases psychological empowerment, which in turn increases change-oriented organizational citizenship behavior. Public service motivation plays a moderating role in this process. Specifically, the positive mediating effect of organizational error tolerance on change-oriented organizational citizenship behavior through psychological empowerment was not significant when the level of public service motivation was high, while it was significant when the level of public service motivation was low.Conclusion: This study clarifies the mechanism and boundary conditions of the effect of organizational error tolerance on change-oriented organizational citizenship behavior, provides a more comprehensive and dialectical perspective for research on organizational error tolerance, and extends research on psychological empowerment and change-oriented organizational citizenship behavior.Keywords: organizational error tolerance, psychological empowerment, change-oriented organizational citizenship behavior, public service motivation, organizational management, employee behavior

The article presents an overview of the books by Danish (Brian Russell Graham), Indonesian (Harijono Djojodihardjo), Romanian (Liviu Warter) and Irish (Sean Crosson) authors. The books cover the problems of the relationship between national culture and innovation (H. Djojodihardjo), national culture and business ethics (I. Warter, L.

The review takes into account the appeal of the researchers to the Russian national cultural experience and its influence on the policy in the field of mass culture, innovation and economic cooperation. The abstracts from the articles and books are supported by the data from the Google Trends analytical service for the search queries of the Internet users such as “business ethics”, “cinema”, “general culture” and “innovation”. The correlation of scientific findings in the peer-reviewed scientific literature and public interest in certain topics makes it possible to show the popularity and significance of the chosen issue, to clarify the national and geographical features of the content under study.

This study examined whether work-family conflict mediates the effects of perceived organizational support and perceived supervisor support on turnover intention among nurses in the healthcare sector in Bangladesh. Data collected from 383 participants were analyzed using structural equation modelling. Both perceived supervisor support and perceived organizational support were found to have a significant negative association with nurses' intention to leave. The study further revealed that the connection between perceived support and turnover intention among nurses in Bangladesh was positively mediated by work-family conflict; it was shown that work-family conflict increases turnover intention. This study recommended that, hospitals should focus on creating a socially interactive environment and addressing work-family conflicts, as selected variables can as these factors can mitigate nurses’ turnover intentions through job satisfaction and increase overall well-being among nurses. An increase in job satisfaction may ultimately improve patient care within healthcare organizations. This study aimed to provide support to human resource managers in the development of strategies that can effectively reduce nurse turnover, which is a critical issue in Bangladesh and other countries facing similar challenges.

Managing megaprojects presents significant challenges due to their complexity and openness. In recent years, numerous studies have emerged in organizational management to enhance the efficient allocation of resources in megaprojects. However, despite the existence of segmented research in this field, a comprehensive review that captures the overall status, characteristics, and limitations is lacking. To address this gap, this study aims to conduct a systematic literature analysis of existing research from an organization science perspective. Through an analysis of 102 relevant research articles, eight main research directions are identified, including stakeholder management, organizational behavior, inter-organizational relationships, organizational structure, social responsibility, organizational environment, government governance, and organizational culture. Furthermore, this paper provides a detailed overview of the characteristics and limitations of current research in the field of megaproject organizational management, encompassing research content and methods. Building on these findings, five future research directions for megaproject organizational management are proposed.

This study examined how different factors—environmental, human resources, managerial, technological, and innovation—influence the organizational performance of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). For the study methodology, a correlational research design was used to examine the relationships between variables in a sample of 476 SMEs in Colombia. Advanced statistical techniques were used, such as regression and correlation analyses with Monte Carlo simulation. We evaluated four dimensions, 16 factors, and 197 related variables to understand their impact on business performance. The results show that all the studied factors, i.e., environment, structure, management, and people, have a positive relationship with organizational performance. Additionally, the results indicate that SMEs tend to have strong performance in the dimensions of finance, infrastructure, and production but weaker performance in those of international, socioenvironmental, technological, institutional philosophy, process, and human resources management. These findings provide valuable insight into the areas that SMEs may need to focus on to improve their performance while underscoring the importance of considering a variety of factors when developing strategies to improve organizational performance.
