A major difï¬culty facing governments around the world is how to monitor the performance of State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) (Aharoni 1981). This paper reports on research that examines the performance monitoring process in Ghanaian State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs). The analysis presented is based on a case study in three large-scale SOEs. Data is gathered from multiple sources including discussions with accounting ofï¬cials. a review of documents, and interviews with relevant managers in the three SOEs. The results suggest that, the persistent poor performance ot the SOEs resulted in performance monitoring delegated to an external agency established by the government. In theory, the external agency is to monitor all aspects of operations and performance of the SOEs. ln practice. however. major investment and corporate decisions are made by the sector ministry, the ministry of ï¬nance and the respective Board of Directors of each SOE with the external agency having minimal influence in such decisions. KEY WORDS: Management Controls, Budgetary Controls, State- Owned Enterprises, Developing Country, Ghana.

This paper provides a descriptive account ofthe function of the annual report in the formation of share performance expectation at the micro level of an institutional investor. Some of the major ï¬ndings of time-series research are subjected to a closer scrutiny at the micro level within the context of real life complexities. The focus is on three major aspects: (1) the structure of financial statement analysis. (2) the function of the prior forecast error, and (3) the analyst’s forecasting process. The study concentrates on the process of formation ofshare performance expectation on receipt ofthe annual report, rather than at any other point in time. The study does not focus on the process of communicating the expectation (i.e. the actual recommendation), or the actual investment process itself.

The Information Technology Industry is the fastest growing Industry in India as well as the most contributing Industry to the Indian Economy. Needless to mention that the growth and contribution of the Industry can be sustained only if the workforce, especially the technical human resources of the industry remain stable. Unfortunately, with the sudden growth of the industry in India as well as the global competition unleashed, the environment posed great challenges to the industry by way of growing attrition. The industry faced attrition of its technical human resources to the extent of 30-40% half a decade ago and it continues to be near 15-20% in 2014. It kindled interest in academics to investigate the phenomenon and in this study, an attempt has been made to analyze the empirical data relating to the demographic determinants of attrition of technical human resources of the information technology industry in India. The paper investigates if the demographic factors like gender, age, educational qualifiations inflence their intentions to quit the fims or continue to stay. The fidings are signifiant with a view to evolving appropriate attrition management policies of the fims in the industry in India.

They also tend to be individualism-based in managing the organization. With the power focus, they possess masculine culture in which more logical reasoning is highlighted. Although they can accept uncertainty of the results, the leaders still focus on the future benefits of every decision they make. Moreover, the independent variables power distance, uncertainty avoidance, and terms of orientation significantly influence transformational leadership style practiced at the university. However, individual/collectivism and masculinity/femininity factors do not have any influence on the implementation of transformational leadership style in this university.
