Abstract

The presence of women entrepreneurs in the digital marketplace revolutionizes the way we construct our understanding of entrepreneurship way back. Perhaps, this argument could lead to a better impression that entrepreneurship was once a male-dominated profession. This study was designed to generate a causal model on entrepreneurial intention among women entrepreneurs in the context of entrepreneurship, opportunity, alertness, and motivation. A mixed methods design, particularly an explanatory sequential approach, was utilized, and a total of 423 women digital entrepreneurs in the Davao Region participated in this research. Structural equation modeling was utilized to test the hypothesized causal model. Findings indicated that entrepreneurial motivation significantly influences alertness, opportunity, and intention; alertness influences opportunity, but entrepreneurial alertness and entrepreneurial opportunity have no significant influence on entrepreneurial intention. Generally, the hypothesized regression model described 67% of the aggregate variance in entrepreneurial intentions, which was statistically significant. The quantitative results were validated by the informants in the qualitative phase. As to the generated model, the informants concurred with the focal role of entrepreneurial motivation in women's entrepreneurial intentions. The emerging themes: personal will, entrepreneurial screening and seizing, social media presence, and stakeholder support substantiated the results in the model. This leads to connecting-merging-confirmation as the natural integration. Keywords:   Entrepreneurial Intention; Entrepreneurial alertness; Entrepreneurial Opportunity; Entrepreneurial Motivation; Gender Empowerment.

Abstract

This study determined the school head's conflict resolution skills, organizational school climate, and teachers' work engagement among public school principals and teachers in the City Schools Division in Laguna for the school year 2020-2021. One hundred twelve (112) public school principals and one thousand forty-eight (1048) teachers were the respondents of the study. The researchers utilized a descriptive correlation study design. It made use of adopted and modified questionnaires to assess and measure the variables studied. The statistical tools used to analyze the data gathered were: Mean, standard deviation, Pearson r, and Multiple Linear Regression Analysis. Findings revealed that conflict resolution skills and organizational school climate were relevant to teachers' work engagement. The results were used to determine the principal and teachers’ development program to be proposed to the School Divisions officials. The teachers' work engagement was related to the school heads' conflict resolution skills and organizational school climate. To ensure a more efficient teachers work engagement, school heads are encouraged to continue cultivating a culture of excellence in the school by exposing the teachers to relevant activities that may sustain the work engagement by means of exhibiting quality performance in teaching and learning. Also, supervisors should strengthen the performance of the teachers by providing the technical assistance needed to further improve their performance. Technical assistance should focus on curriculum delivery and the school's operation and management. Keywords:   Conflict Resolution Skills; Development Program; New Normal; Organizational School Climate; Teacher Work Engagement.

Abstract

During the Covid-19 pandemic, a previous study has shown that organizational support increases mental health, mental health increase work performance, and organizational support increases work performance. However, there was still no study that identified the degree of mediation role of mental health in the relationship between organizational support and work performance; hence this study mainly aimed to investigate whether it was partial or full mediation. We conducted a cross-sectional, quantitative analytical study on nurses of the Covid-19 referral hospital in Jakarta. We used an adapted questionnaire on 127 nurses, validated and analyzed with path analysis. This study found that there was a significant effect of organizational support on work performance both directly and indirectly via mental health. It was proven that mental health mediates the relation of organizational support with work performance. The mediation that occurred was partial mediation. From this result, besides giving the best possible support, the hospital also needs to focus on nurses' and other health workers' mental health, as organizational support will affect work performance better when mental health is in a good state.

Abstract

The performance of manufacturing as the prominent sector decreased because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, it could bounce back its performance quickly right after. The question remains whether new ways of working take part in this agile behavior of manufacturing employees in adapting to such a situation. Even so, what kind of new ways of working could be implemented in manufacturing since this sector has a specific processing system from input to output? Implementing new ways of working practices in manufacturing varies since manufacturing has primary and support activities. First, this paper elaborates on the definition of new ways of working and the feasible practices that could be implemented in manufacturing. They are ICT, flexible work time, flexible workplace, and professional autonomy. Second, this paper uses the triadic reciprocal of social cognitive theory to find the relevance of new ways of working and workforce agility. Furthermore, psychological empowerment plays an important part in implementing new ways of working regarding employee sustainability as a human being who needs intrinsic motivation. The authors conclude with the proposed model that depicts the relevance between new ways of working practices, psychological empowerment, and workforce agility. This study also provides managerial implications in implementing new ways of working in the manufacturing sector.

Abstract

The South African public sector confronts a problem in retaining scarce skills because it competes in the labour market with the private sector, which provides higher packages/ benefits and conducive working conditions. Higher turnover of workers with scarce skills is a serious problem for service delivery and a costly exercise for the government. When scarce-skilled employees leave the public sector, vacant positions in the institutions' post establishments arise; as a result, the public institutions' ability to provide quality service delivery declines, and the recruitment and selection process is a costly process that further strains the government's budget. The capacity of a public institution to provide world-class service to its citizens is entirely dependent on the availability of competent staff who will carry out their tasks in such a manner that service delivery is enhanced. This paper aims to assess the current turnover rate among scarce skills employees within the South African public sector, and present viable alternatives for the government to address the escalating turnover issues, ultimately ensuring the retention of these valuable employees. To achieve the objective of the article, this paper used a review of the literature. The findings of this study revealed that the South African public sector is having difficulty attracting and retaining scarce skilled employees, which has a negative impact on the delivery and development of services. This higher turnover is faced by all levels of government and is driven by a competition for scarce skills between the government and the private sector, unfavourable working conditions, and less competitive packages, which has resulted in a situation where posts in the public sector remain vacant for longer periods of time. Few studies address concerns about scarce skills, high turnover, and personnel retention, particularly in the South African public sector. The author contends that this field should be further researched because effective and efficient public service delivery depends on the qualified staff.

Abstract

Jamu is a traditional herbal drink from Indonesia that has been inherited from generation to generation. Jamu drinks have a variety of recipes since their ingredients are derived from a combination of typical Indonesian spices that can be obtained in local markets. Previously, jamu was frequently associated with a bitter taste, but due to improvements and innovations, it may now adapt to the preferences of the younger generation. Moreover, modification of a recipe's look involving different hues may cause consumers to speculate about its taste. This study examines taste perception from the Indonesian traditional herbal drinks "jamu" color for the younger generation by using photo products image. The research method was conducted through experimentation by using a questionnaire and forum discussion in 2 phases on 111 visual communication students with an average age of 21.7 years. Results: white, red, blue, and yellow colors were preferred by the majority of participants, followed by orange and brownish-red colors, which were still mostly acceptable. However, brown and green were perceived as the colors that participants disliked the most. Based on the result of this experiment, it can be concluded that human perception of color and taste can also be applied to traditional herbal medicine; this result supports the innovative exploration of jamu recipes that can adapt to the tastes of the younger generation. The result of this study shows that perception is influenced by previous experience; several times, the data showed significantly that colors such as milk or common fruit juice would be perceived the same as the taste of jamu. Furthermore, these findings strengthen various previous studies that the color will be able to make humans perceive its taste; although sometimes the perception is wrong, it can be used as an important reference for industries. In addition, the results of this study also show that the perception of color can be done without the need to see the product directly.
