Specifically, the apparel LPA located in the city of Santa Cruz do Capibaribe, Pernambuco-Brazil was studied, mainly composed of micro and small enterprises (MSEs). For this, the quantitative survey method was used, with a sample of 301 respondents, analysed through the modelling of structural equations of the PLS type. The results demonstrate a second-order model, due to the complexity of inter-organisational learning, with measurement and structural validation. This model shows inter-organisational learning in this type of network being influenced only by the trust factor and the spatial proximity existing between the participating MSEs. Journal: Int.

The study employs three measures of ICP (VAIC, MVAIC, and IC-Index) and six different proxies for financial performance. Using Indonesian public companies which are listed in the Jakarta Islamic Index (JII) for the period of December 2017-May 2018, we found that when tested separately, VAIC and MVAIC both have positive effects on financial performance, while IC-Index does not influence the firms' financial outcome. By incorporating those three ICP measures in one model, we discovered similar results, where VAIC and MVAIC have a positive influence on the financial outcome, but not IC-Index. We contributed to the discussion that VAIC and MVAIC are important measures of intellectual capital performance, especially in the context of firms operating with Islamic measures in Indonesia.

An investigation of knowledge transfer during social distancing policies Abstract: During the COVID-19 pandemic, the researchers discovered that a billion students accessed digital channels, thus confirming the centrality of digital technologies in education. Considering that student satisfaction refers to a short-term attitude resulting from an evaluation of the educational experiences lived and that the perceived quality of an educational background is a consequence of student satisfaction, this paper investigates the role of e-learning practices in a knowledge transfer's environment, such as the university. Mainly, through an exploratory analysis, the paper gives some specific insights, investigating students' satisfaction in terms of interaction between students, technology, and original contents. The results show how digital technologies are transforming the education experience by shedding light on e-learning outcomes and students' satisfaction. The principal managerial implications of the paper focus on the beginning to understand the need to acquire digital infrastructures in universities, reducing the technological gaps, and considering the implementation of online learning solutions.

The main objective of this study is to investigate the pattern of field choice and the factors that influence students' field choice in two purposefully selected colleges. A total of 125 first-year students, 45 from the law school in the College of Law and Governance and 80 from language departments (one foreign and one local language department) in College of Humanities, Language Studies, Journalism and Communication (CHLSJC) participated in the study. The result indicated that students in the law school have better socio-economic status and achievement than the students in the language departments. Similarly, students in the law school seem to consider practical factors while students in the CHLSJC consider interpersonal factors as most influential in their field choice. The existing differences in the students' background and the factors they considered in their field choice process are found to be a continuation of prior inequalities and that they further perpetuate inequality in the higher education system in Ethiopia.

Recent research studies find significant impact of CG on voluntary disclosures in annual reports of the firms. Intellectual capital disclosures are voluntary disclosures that have gained significant attention in recent years. This paper tries to analyse the nature and extent of intellectual capital disclosure of four groups of firms from the manufacturing and the service sector in India for the financial year 2017-2018. Further, it explores CG characteristics of the firms and its influence on extent of IC disclosures. The results of the paper indicate that there is a significant difference in the level of disclosures in the service and the manufacturing sector. The nature of disclosures is varied among four sub-groups. Human capital disclosures are highest in the manufacturing sector, whereas customer capital disclosures are more in the service sector. Board size, its independence, has a significant positive impact on the extent of overall IC disclosures. The age of the firm and its size has a very strong impact on the level of IC disclosures in almost all industries. The financial performance measured by return on assets of the firms also show association in some cases. Journal: Int.

Since organisational capabilities translate strategies into actions and they are a common terminology of strategies and organisational components, the goal of the present research is to measure the HR strategic readiness regarding organisational capabilities. The proposed mechanism has been reviewed by a case study research method. The study findings indicate that product development, market development, product promotion and stabilisation of quality are the strategies emphasised by the organisation. Among six strategic job families identified, the strategic readiness of one group was weak, one group was moderate and other job families had acceptable strategic readiness. Journal: Int.

The participants comprised of 25 employees in the programme, which had three phases. The required variables included the cost of the training, salary, hours utilised in the programme and percentage of time spent on the eTMF. The proportion of the competency and performance was collected and calculated based on the proposed approach and formula. The results provided the human capital in the programme in monetary values, comprising the investments and benefits, which most values were intangible. Contrastingly, investments were the training and opportunity costs and the benefits were value-added in the competencies and performances required for the eTMF. This case could determine the human capital and evaluate the effectiveness of the programme by comparing the investments and benefits. Journal: Int.

Perspective of a telecommunication industry in Indonesia Abstract: This study investigates the moderating role of work-life balance in the relationship between HR practices and affective organisational commitment. This study uses a quantitative method with a survey approach. Questionnaires were distributed to employees working in the telecommunications industry in Indonesia using random sampling techniques. A total of 363 respondents participated in filling out the questionnaire. This study found a significant effect of HR practices on work-life balance and affective organisational commitment of employees in the telecommunications industry. In addition, work-life balance has been proven to mediate the relationship between HR practices and affective organisational commitment. Research findings show that the telecommunications industry has maintained and improved effective HR practices to help employees achieve work-life balance. A conducive and supportive work environment will be embedded in an individual's mindset, thus they feel a stronger emotional attachment to the organisation. The implications of this study will be discussed further. Journal: Int.

Using resource-based view theory, this paper aims to explore the relationships between intellectual capital and financial performance based on the data of 220 Chinese insurance companies listed in China Insurance Yearbook, from 2008 to 2017. Our study is robust for using Value-Added Intellectual Coefficient (VAIC™) and ratios as the proxies of IC, as well as return on assets and return on equities as the proxies of financial performance. Panel data regression and ordinary least squares are applied to analyse the data. Apart from the popular direct effect, we also find significant positive (negative) effects of increasing (decreasing) IC on increasing (decreasing) financial performance. However, we find no dynamic relationship between IC and financial performance. This paper provides scholars and practitioners with new perspectives on IC learning and management. Journal: Int.

This tool is the modified form of Pulics' VAIC tool which is widely used in numerous studies worldwide in order to find empirical evidence between the relations among intellectual capital with firms' market value. MVAIC is adopted in this study for the very first time in China which is the unique point of this study. The results show the cement industry has a different relationship between intellectual capital and market value and financial performance as compared to other sectors of the economy. This research is of enormous importance that can help CEOs, managers, shareholders as well as investors to analyse firms' performance and to obtain information that is explicitly missing in the financial reports of the firms.

Faculty members' participation in research not only helps in improving the quality of faculty members but also improves the quality of the institute. In this paper, we use survey data from Wollega University to understand the factors hindering the research participation decision of faculty members at the university level. This survey tries to analyse the determinants of participation of academic staff in Wollega University. The logit model was used for analysing the data. We conclude that availability of publication incentives, work experience, speed of internet, accessibility to research funds and colleague collaboration on research participation all enhance the probability of academic staff's research participation while teaching load is negatively related to the probability of academic staff's research participation in the study area.

Second, the study investigates the role of intellectual capital in the association between internationalisation challenges and the firm's internalisation. By collecting data from 211 manufacturing sector SMEs of Pakistan, PLS-SEM was employed to analyse the hypothesised relationship. Second, one-way ANOVA was employed to check whether the internationalisation differs by the level of IC or not. The results depicted a significant negative influence of all four groups of internationalisation challenges on the firm's international performance. Results also showed a significant and direct impact of human capital and structural capital on a firms' international performance. Results showed that IC significantly and negatively moderated the association between internationalisation challenges and performance. Likewise, results also showed that firms with stronger IC were having better international performance as compare to the firms with weaker IC. Journal: Int.

We employ Prais-Winsten regression with panel corrected standard errors to estimate our model. We find that while capital employed and structural capital efficiencies significantly and positively determine firm value, relational capital efficiency's positive effect appears mild. However, human capital efficiency appears to have no relationship with firm value. The significance of our findings is demonstrated by two key contributions to the literature. Firstly, this study is the first of its kind conducted in the Nigerian oil and gas industry. Secondly, our results provide further evidence in support of the clean surplus theory in its function of facilitating the role of accounting numbers in determining and explaining market values. These results are robust to an alternative time-series estimation at aggregate downstream sector level. Journal: Int.

To achieve this aim, we have used panel dynamic models, where the value-added intellectual coefficient (VAIC) model measures the intellectual capital, allowing to conclude that this capital and its components - human, structural and relational - influence the three proxies used for financial performance - return on equity, return on assets and net interest margin. Our results point out that intellectual capital components influence the Portuguese banks' performance, and for this reason should be a bet on future strategic decisions. Banks manage intellectual capital to improve their financial performance, achieving the goals of the interested parties. Journal: Int.

Some researchers point out that knowledge sharing can be facilitated by organisational culture. This study examined which characteristics of organisational culture have positive impacts on knowledge sharing. A quantitative research with opinion-based questionnaires was applied. The findings indicated so-called knowledge sharing culture had a significant positive effect on the extent of knowledge sharing in the organisation. Four dimensions of knowledge sharing culture were suggested: partnership between the employer and the staff, cooperation among employees, user-friendliness of the used information system, and employees' organisational commitment. All of them were moderate-significantly related to knowledge sharing. However, only partnership between the employer and the staff predicted knowledge sharing in the organisation. The results indicate that in the process of building knowledge sharing culture, partnership with the staff including support for employees from management, fairness and communication is essential.

Against the backdrop of the report issued by Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce % Industry (FICCI), this study aims to explore the effect of university intellectual capital on 'intellectual imperatives' of the Indian higher education. Structural equation modelling was tested on 590 university faculty members to gauge the influence of university intellectual capital on the intellectual imperatives of the higher education sector identified in the report. Results revealed that intellectual capital strongly influences 'intellectual imperatives'. Research conducive policies, employee-oriented practices, equal employment opportunities, stakeholder orientation and networking emerged as the earmarks of university intellectual capital. The study has international implications and provides policymakers and practitioners a feasible model to leverage university intellectual capital to create a situation conducive to enhance university performance.

However, few available literatures recognised this issue but mostly for blue-collar female employees. Whereas in reality, white collar working female are also burdened with major challenges to balance their work and life. Therefore, the study was carried out with an aim to investigate the determinants of work-life balance among the white-collar female employees working in private sector of Bangladesh. The study employed a mixed methodology of online questionnaires with 189 responses from the private sector white collar females and semi-structured interviews on four varied background human resources' personnel. The main findings show personal and family-social life are affected most due to their job and these two determinants can significantly influence overall balance between work and life. Journal: Int.

It focuses on the productivity of human capital in social housing associations (SHA) and other charities (OC). We analysed the efficiency and effectiveness of 64 NPOs using Pulic's value added intellectual coefficient. We employed ordinary least squares regression analyses on data obtained from annual reports over two years. We found that SHA had lower levels of IC efficiency than OC. Our results revealed that value added intellectual capital coefficient was negatively associated with performance of SHAOC, whereas, the value added capital employed coefficient was positively associated with the effectiveness of SHAOC. We concluded that HC was an important component than capital resources in SHA. Our results were limited due to a small sample and short period that was considered. Journal: Int.
