Guven, Erdem. "Participation To Administration In Capitalist Society: Theoretical And Political Limitations Of The Critical And Radical Administrative Theories." Master's thesis, METU, 2012. http://etd.lib.metu.edu.tr/upload/12614812/index.pdf.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis aims at critically examining the specific place of the "
critical"
and "
radical"
theories within both the theory of public administration and political theory, particularly in terms of the discursive participatory framework they offer. The fundamental question dealt with is whether or not the power and dependence analyses of these approaches (which are treated as '
marginal'
in the field) is convincing for an egalitarian, comprehensive and socially transformative democratic governance. Since a discussion of this sort essentially problematizes the reduction of political equality to a proceduralist and abstract philosophical equality, not to commit a similar fallacy of "
apriorism"
, the study incorporates the observations on LA-21 Turkey processes as a local governance program, in terms of a concrete contribution to theoretical discussion. In the light of direct observations, interviews and data obtained from secondary resources regarding the participatory practices, the level of organization and current capacity of political representation are inferred to be also decisive on the capacity to participate, owing this decisiveness substantially to the economic and social resources in the real social formation, hence the conditions of production of local knowledge are consequently identified as far from reflecting a democratic environment purified from power relations. Highlighting the risk for the notion of self-governance to gain a hegemonic functionality for bourgeoisie democracy concealing and perpetuating social inequalities, the thesis argues for shifting the inquire for the dominant class, from solely political-administrative sphere to civil society, and the maintainable and reproductive conditions and mechanisms of dominance between these two spheres.

Abstract:
This thesis represents a scholarly journey towards an understanding of corporate governance. Unlike the vast majority of writings on governance, this work attempts to take a step back, and to consider why and how we should study corporate governance. These critical questions have been largely ignored during the frenzy of governance research in the past few decades. The thesis argues that corporate governance theory and practice reflects a Tower of Academic Babel¹ reality as writers from diverse backgrounds use different approaches, invent terminology and proclaim a new 'theory'. The thesis analyses the extent of this conceptual confusion about corporate governance and why this arises. It also considers some possible reasons for the increasing disillusionment with the legal, ethical, cultural, institutional, regulatory and other contexts of corporate governance. The corporate governance literature indicates that much uncertainty has arisen over the nature of corporate governance. Both, denotative and connotative meanings of corporate governance have been ambiguous, often because of poorly defined concepts. This ambiguity is compounded by confusion over methodological concepts such as "paradigm", "system", "model" and "theory", the key constructs employed by many legal, and other, writers. Moreover, much of the literature on corporate governance is founded on ethnocentric concepts that are often "chauvinistic in the extreme".² This confusion has been intensified by the added complexity of unique phenomenology, demonstrated by numerous writers with "scholarship and advocacy that is culturally and economically insensitive"³ This thesis argues that the search for corporate efficiency and effectiveness is often misguided, both because of biased performance criteria and a lack of a clear conceptual domain. Consequently, the corporate governance discourse fails meaningfully to address the enigma of what is the range of corporate governance influence on corporate activities? The overarching argument made in this thesis is that our understanding of corporate governance requires a clarification of methodological approach and a comparative perspective. By recasting corporate governance research within consistent models, theories and applications this thesis lays the foundation for future research by which we may investigate the causal relationships that determine corporate efficiency, effectiveness and the optimum structures for good corporate governance. practitioners from most cultures.

Educational Administration
Ed.D.
This quantitative study analyzed the relationship between district characteristics, the educational environment and the administrative organizational structure in public schools in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania between the 1996-1997 school year and the 2006-2007. More specifically, this study conducted an assessment of the changes and stability that have occurred in the Commonwealth's 501 public school district's administrative positions and structures and determined the trends or relationships that exist between the administrative structure in comparison with district characteristics and the educational environment. Pennsylvania public schools have increased in total number of administrators across the Commonwealth from 5,734 in the 1996-97 school year (Database 1996-97) to 7,348 administrators in the 2006-07 school year (Database 2006-07). This is an increase of 1,614 administrators across the 501 public school districts. These increases have not been consistent from one year to another or across districts. Little is known concerning the relationship between internal district characteristics, the external educational environment and administrative changes or stability. In addition, little is known about that combination of characteristics that have allowed some districts to remain stable in a changing educational environment. In an effort to provide more information on these issues, this quantitative study analyzed public school administrative positions and structures in the 501 Pennsylvania school districts over time in relation to the district's characteristics and educational environment. By assessing combinations of district characteristics and the educational environment, this study sought to find similarities and differences in how districts administratively respond to forces and pressures on the organization.

Sharp, Mary B. "Exits, entrances and entrepreneurship : an exploration of economic theories of entrepreneurship through new independent entry and infant exit." Thesis, Aston University, 1988. http://publications.aston.ac.uk/10848/.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis began as a study of new firm formation. Preliminary research suggested that infant death rate was considered to be a closely related problem and the search was for a theory of new firm formation which would explain both. The thesis finds theories of exit and entry inadequate in this respect and focusses instead on theories of entrepreneurship, particularly those which concentrate on entrepreneurship as an agent of change. The role of information is found to be fundamental to economic change and an understanding of information generation and dissemination and the nature and direction of information flows is postulated to lead coterminously to an understanding of entrepreneurhsip and economic change. The economics of information is applied to theories of entrepreneurhsip and some testable hypotheses are derived. The testing relies on etablishing and measuring the information bases of the founders of new firms and then testing for certain hypothesised differences between the information bases of survivors and non-survivors. No theory of entrepreneurship is likely to be straightforwardly testable and many postulates have to be established to bring the theory to a testable stage. A questionnaire is used to gather information from a sample of firms taken from a new micro-data set established as part of the work of the thesis. Discriminant Analysis establishes the variables which best distinguish between survivors and non-survivors. The variables which emerge as important discriminators are consistent with the theory which the analysis is testing. While there are alternative interpretations of the important variables, collective consistency with the theory under test is established. The thesis concludes with an examination of the implications of the theory for policy towards stimulating new firm formation.

Akaramingmongkol, Wanchoke. "The application of administrative theories to the Petroleum Authority of Thailand (PTT), should the Thai government give up control?" Virtual Press, 1995. http://liblink.bsu.edu/uhtbin/catkey/941710.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis explores the dynamics of public administration for the Petroleum Authority of Thailand (PTT), the state-owned oil enterprise under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Thailand. The study shows how PTT adapts bureaucratic systems to organization theories.The thesis focuses on six segments in PTT: (1) Culture -- including bureaucratic political system, equality and efficiency, and the adaptiveness of the Thai culture; (2) Organization Theory and Structure -- including varieties of organization theory and traditional structure principles; (3) Personnel - including people, labor relations, leadership, and communication; (4) Budgets -- including privatization, productivity, efficiency and effectiveness, and program evaluation; (5) Regulations -- including administrative controls and administrative accountability; and (6) Organization Change -- including process of change in the public sector and reengineering in the public sector.The central problem is that the Thai government has no intention for giving up the control of PTT. The reason is because the PTT has made many gains in the oil, natural gas, and petrochemical businesses in Thailand. The Industry Minister, who is directly control the PTT, can recieve some gain from the PTT projects through the commission of each construction project and highest share from each subsidiary that wants to enter in the Stock Market of Thailand.However, because of the increasing and expanding of world oil market, PTT needs more flexibility and less control from the Thai government to compete with other nations. The study also shows that how PTT creates structure that moves with change, that is flexible and adaptive, and that enables rather than constrains while PTT is controlled by the Thai government. It also shows how PTT will solve this problem if the government is not ready to give up control.The methods used in this study are a review of relevant literature and government documents, news document, and interviews with top managers at PTT. The results of this study shows that it is time for the Thai government to give up control of PTT. The Industry Minister is unlikely to take drastic action in the first stage because it might negatively affect the PTT's business. To date, the energy situation has changed toward market-oriented operations. Therefore, the PTT needs more flexibility to compete with another companies both inside and outside the country.Ball State UniversityMuncie, IN 47306

Gliniasty, Jeanne de. "Les théories jurisprudentielles en droit administratif." Thesis, Cergy-Pontoise, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015CERG0803.

Full text
Abstract:
Quels liens existe-t-il entre la théorie de l'imprévision, la théorie de la connaissance acquise, la théorie des circonstances exceptionnelles, ou encore celle des associations transparentes ? Le nombre important de théories répertoriées en droit administratif pour désigner des jurisprudences conduit à s'interroger sur cet usage établi et pourtant peu étudié. La première difficulté résulte du terme même de « théorie ». Loin d'être neutre, celui-ci est chargé de significations qui renvoient très directement à l'épistémologie des sciences et donne à une étude relative aux théories jurisprudentielles en droit administratif une dimension substantielle.Peut-on identifier et analyser un substrat commun à l'ensemble de ces théories ou s'agit-t-il d'une utilisation fluctuante et contingente ? En d'autres termes, peut-on parvenir à une signification unifiée du concept de théorie dans l'analyse de la jurisprudence ?L'identification des théories jurisprudentielles procède de la mise en lumière d'une catégorie réelle qui répond à des règles conventionnelles auxquelles le discours juridique semble se plier. Construites au cours d'un long processus impliquant l'ensemble des acteurs juridiques, elles sont reconnues comme produisant des effets de droit.En outre, les jurisprudences appelées « théories » révèlent des fonctions normatives communes. Plus précisément, elles constituent un instrument à la disposition du juge administratif dans la mise en œuvre du contrôle de légalité et contribuent ainsi à la vitalité du droit administratif.L'usage du mot « théorie » témoigne de surcroît d'une volonté dogmatique de faire voir le droit administratif et son histoire sous un angle linéaire et sans rupture. Il a accompagné tout le processus de construction d'une science distincte de celle du droit privé et concourt aujourd'hui encore à l'affermissement du droit administratif. L'étude des théories jurisprudentielles met ainsi en lumière certains enjeux fondamentaux pour la discipline
What are the relationship between the imprevision theory, the "connaissance acquise" theory, the exceptional circumstances theory and the theory of "associations transparentes" ? The important number of identified theories in french administrative law for naming all the jurisprudences leads to inquire about a common use, however little explored. The first difficulty stems from the term of "theory" itself. Far from being neutral, this term embodies meanings which refer directly to the epistemology of sciences and give a substantive dimension to jurisprudential theories in administrative law.Can we identify and analyse a common ground of all these theories, or is that use only changing and casual ? In others words, an unified meaning of the concept of theory in the jurisprudential analyse can be established ?The identification of jurisprudential theories comes from the highlight of a real category which satisfies to conventional rules, and the legal discourse seems to follow them. Developped through a long process, they are recognized as theories which produce binding legal effects.Furthermore, administrative jurisprudences called "theories" reveal common normative functions. More precisely, they constitute an instrument for the administrative judge in order to implement the control of legality and contribute, in that way, to the vitality of administrative law.In addition, the use of the word "theory" underlines a dogmatical will to let show administrative law and its history in a linear way, without any discontinuity. It has accompagnied all the building process of a distinctive science from the common law, and it still contributes to the strenghtening of administrative law. Thus, jurisprudential theories raise fundamental issues for this matter

Abstract:
Nos modelos de gestão clássicos o conflito era tido como algo prejudicial à organização sendo, na maioria das vezes ignorado, no entanto, tendências contemporâneas visualizam-no como um fenômeno inevitável e que está presente nas organizações. Porém, acredita-se que o mesmo deva ser gerenciado adequadamente para promover mudanças no ambiente de trabalho. Nossa vivência como enfermeira demonstra que na equipe de enfermagem os conflitos acontecem com freqüência, todavia são escassos os estudos realizados no Brasil sobre essa temática. Esta pesquisa objetivou analisar a natureza dos conflitos frente às relações pessoais, grupais, ambiente físico e organização do trabalho na equipe de enfermagem e, descrever como os conflitos são abordados e processados por essa equipe no âmbito da estrutura organizacional hospitalar. Para tal, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa, descritiva e exploratória através da utilização de entrevista semi-estruturada aplicada a dezenove profissionais da equipe de enfermagem de um hospital público geral de médio porte da cidade de Londrina, PR, Brasil. Realizou-se análise de conteúdo, com identificação de unidades de significação extraídas dos textos das entrevistas, sendo posteriormente analisadas segundo referencial das teorias administrativas e da gestão contemporânea. As falas dos sujeitos evidenciam que os conflitos ocorrem devido à falta de clareza da missão e objetivos organizacionais; ao modelo de organização adotado pelo serviço de enfermagem; à estrutura do ambiente físico inadequada; as políticas de contratações de pessoal diferenciadas; as relações pessoais e grupais na equipe de enfermagem, à comunicação ineficaz e dimensões da liderança. Em relação ao gerenciamento dos conflitos, por parte da enfermagem, pode-se destacar que existe uma tentativa para que os conflitos sejam gerenciados através de diálogo com os envolvidos, entretanto, ainda prevalecem os valores individuais. Percebe-se, também, que as várias causas dos conflitos são decorrentes de problemas funcionais que dependem de instâncias superiores, de políticas articuladas de recursos humanos e de saúde. Os resultados indicam a necessidade dos enfermeiros adquirirem posições mais articuladas institucionalmente e, neste sentido faz-se imperativo a reavaliação dos projetos político-pedagógicos das escolas de enfermagem a fim de implementarem estratégias de participação e mediação grupal visando o desenvolvimento gerencial do futuro enfermeiro.
In classical management models, conflict was seen as something harmful to the organization and was mostly ignored. Contemporary tendencies, on the other hand, tend to consider it as an unavoidable phenomenon present in organizations, which should be adequately managed in order to promote changes in the work environment. Our experience as a nurse demonstrates that, in spite of the lack of studies about this subject in Brazil, conflicts are frequent in the nursing team. This research aimed to analyze the nature of conflicts in view of personal and group relations, physical environment and work organization in the nursing team, as well as to describe how these conflicts are approached and processed by the nursing team and in the sphere of the organizational hospital structure. A qualitative, descriptive and exploratory research was carried out by means of semi-structured interviews with nineteen professionals who are part of the nursing team at a general medium size public hospital in Londrina, PR, Brazil. Content analysis was used, identifying the units of meaning that were extracted from the interview texts, which were then analyzed in the reference framework of administrative theories and contemporary management. The subject’s discourse evidenced that conflicts are due to the lack of clearness about the organization’s mission and objectives, the organization model adopted by the nursing service, the physical environment inadequacy, distinct policies as far as human resources are concerned, personal and group relations in the nursing team, inefficient communication and leadership dimension. Concerning the conflict management by nursing, attempts are made to manage conflicts through dialogue with the persons involved, although individual values still prevail. It was also perceived that various causes of conflict result from functional problems depending on higher instances, and on the association of human resources and health policies. The results pointed towards the need for nurses to assume institutionally articulated positions. In this sense, it is essential to the nursing schools to review their pedagogical and political projects so as to introduce participatory strategies and group mediation aiming at the future nurse’s development of management.

Pouillaude, Hugo-Bernard. "Le lien de causalité dans le droit de la responsabilité administrative." Thesis, Paris 2, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011PA020054/document.

Full text
Abstract:
Le lien de causalité est une condition centrale du droit de la responsabilité administrative. Entre la faute et le préjudice, l’examen du lien de causalité est un impératif de justice et une inévitable exigence intellectuelle. Il permet de donner un ordre à la fois rationnel et juste aux faits. Réputé impénétrable, suspect d’arbitraire, acculé à un prétendu déclin par le développement de la logique assurantielle, le lien de causalité n’a pas fait l’objet d’une étude d’ensemble en droit public. L’analyse de la notion de lien de causalité permet pourtant de tromper cette image. Elle révèle, d’abord, qu’il faut distinguer le problème -métaphysique- de la causalité, de la question -pragmatique- de l’explication causale. La nature des problèmes posés par ces deux questions est différente ; celle qui se pose au juge est modeste : donner une explication rationnelle aux faits, sans quête de la vérité. Elle permet, ensuite, d’observer que le lien de causalité, s’il ne relève pas d’un constat objectif des faits, n’est toutefois pas empreint d’une subjectivité singulière par rapport à d’autres notions indéterminées en droit. L’étude de la pratique du lien de causalité en atteste. Le juge administratif a une approche ordonnée du lien de causalité fondée sur un équilibre entre attachement à la matérialité des faits et finalité de l’explication causale. Dans l’identification d’une cause, la hiérarchisation d’une pluralité de causes ou la circonscription du dommage, la jurisprudence administrative se caractérise par cette liberté, fidèle à l’arrêt Blanco, dans la détermination d’une politique jurisprudentielle, que le lien de causalité permet, parfois, mais suit seulement, le plus souvent
Causal relationship is a central term in the law of administrative responsibility. Between fault and prejudice, the examination of causal relationship is an essential element of justice and constitutes an unavoidable intellectual requirement. It allows the judge to give an order which is both rational and just to facts. Reputed to be impenetrable, suspected of arbitrariness, driven into alleged decline by the development of the logic of insurance, causal relationship has never formed the object of a full-fledged study in public law. The analysis of the notion of causal relationship allows us to correct the image above. It first reveals that we have to distinguish the metaphysical problem of causality from the pragmatic question of causal explanation. The nature of the problem posed by these two questions is different. The question that is put to the judge is modest : give a rational explanation to facts without looking for the truth. It secondly allows to observe that the causal relationship, if it does not come close to being an objective observation of facts, does not bear the imprint of a specific subjectivity with regard to other indeterminate notions in law. The study of the practice of causal relationship bears witness to this. The administrative judge has an ordered approach of the causal relationship founded on a balance between attachment to the materiality of facts and the finality of causal explanation. In the identification of a cause, in the prioritization of multiple causes or in fixing damages, administrative jurisprudence is characterized by this freedom, which is in conformity with the Blanco ruling, in the determination of a jurisprudential policy that causal relationship sometimes renders possible, but which it only follows most often

Full text
Abstract:

The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore a phenomenon concerning why organizational leaders have transitioned from academically recommended leadership theories to their own non-traditional leadership practices. Existing research suggests that current leadership theories are outdated and not keeping pace with continual change, vast technological advancements, and expectations by stakeholders for transparency. The concept for this study was inspired in part by a combination of over 40-years of personal and professional observations and experience in leadership, and a personal theory that leaders do not practice traditional leadership theory as originally intended, but rather select various elements from numerous theories and merge them into a single leadership practice, also known as non-traditional leadership. The findings of this study suggested that all participants practiced non-traditional leadership. Continual change was recognized as an ongoing phenomenon, and leadership theories, or elements of theories, were considered outdated. Acceptance of change and adaptability was identified as necessary attributes for modern day successful leaders, and leaders who continued to practice traditional theory, did so out of fear of change. Additional research should be conducted to evaluate how wide spread the practice of non-traditional leadership practices has spread and why leaders have chosen to ignore the recommended academic teachings of traditional leadership theories. Further research should be conducted concentrating on traditional leaders, in an effort to understand their motivations for following traditional leadership models.

Zurcher, Jeffrey R. "Examining implicit leadership theories among NCAA Division I baseball programs." Thesis, Indiana Wesleyan University, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3615589.

Full text
Abstract:

This purpose of this mixed model study was to ascertain the implicit leadership theory (ILT) content held by National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I baseball teams. Data were collected during the 2012 baseball season from 34 Division I programs, and 1032 coaches and players participated in the research.

As an information-processing approach to understanding leadership, ILT is concerned with the knowledge structures persons maintain and utilize when identifying and interacting with leaders. Ample ILT research has examined such structures within the business context. This study, however, is believed to be the first in-depth exploration of ILT content within the sports domain.

Leadership categorization and connectionist architecture served as the theoretical bases for the study's four research questions, which addressed: the effect that the target cues leader and coach had on ILT (RQ1); the impact that team context (RQ2) and player tenure (RQ3) had on ILT; and whether a sports ILT existed—and if so, how it differed from a business ILT (RQ4). Research was conducted in four sequential steps using qualitative and quantitative methods. Importantly, no external or explicit measures were used to collect data, as such instruments can bias implicit perceptions. The primary tools for processing quantitative data were principal components analysis and confirmatory factor analysis.

A 21-item, 5-factor ILT model for NCAA Division I baseball was derived from factor analysis processes and generalized across two separate data sets. This model demonstrated the existence of a sports ILT, as it differed noticeably from models that explain ILT content within the business domain. Data also indicated that team context had some correlation with ILT differences, whereas player tenure did not. Furthermore, results showed that players do delineate between the targets leader and coach; that is, being perceived as a leader within Division I baseball may not correspond with holding an official organizational/team position.

This study's findings strengthen the idea that leadership is social-cognitive phenomenon that differs according to context. Implications for applying these findings within Division I baseball are discussed. Additionally, this research might be cause for revisiting some of the previous models of leadership within sports studies.

Ramirez, Andrea R. "Acculturation, Cultural Intelligence, and Implicit Leadership Theories." Thesis, Regent University, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3583446.

Full text
Abstract:

The Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness (GLOBE) study contributed a wealth of knowledge regarding the differences across national/societal cultures. However, it did not attempt to measure the potential variations in implicit leadership theories (ILTs; leadership prototypes) that could occur due to individuals being influenced by more than one national culture within countries, such as bicultural individuals. Variations found within a country can be described by their extent of acculturation or adoption of one or more cultural influences. The extent of a person’s acculturation may predict individual ILTs, which are the patterns of attributes that bicultural persons associate with good leaders. In addition, the extent of a person’s cultural intelligence (CQ) may interact with acculturation in impacting ILTs because CQ influences a person’s ability to understand and adjust mental modes to cultural norm. This study explored the relationships among acculturation, CQ, and ILTs in a sample of respondents from Mexican descent living in the United States. The results of the study provide a better understanding of how variations in national culture impact ILTs. In addition, the findings suggest interpretation of cultural dimensions is complex. Significant findings include (a) differences across acculturation levels regarding expectation for a leader to be characterized by the ILT dimensions of sensitivity and tyranny; (b) very Mexican-oriented individuals (acculturation Level 1) showing more expectation for a leader to be characterized as well-dressed, well-groomed, compassionate, understanding, sympathetic, and sensitive and less expectation for a leader to be domineering and demanding than Anglo-oriented individuals (acculturation Level 3), acculturation serving as a predictor of metacognitive CQ; (c) acculturation and metacogntive CQ clearly interacting thus complicating the picture of cultural effects occurring during adjustments to a new cultural setting; and (d) metacognitive CQ serving as a partial mediator between acculturation level and the ILT dimension of sensitivity.

Il convient de situer quelle est la place de la commission des operations de bourse parmi la classification des autorites administratives independantes (a. A. I. ) et de saisir l'evolution de cette commission dans l'environnement administratif francais des trente dernieres annees. La commission des operations de bourse est devenue une autorite a part avant de devenir une haute autorite administrative aux pouvoirs sans cesse amplifies par le legislateur francais et une pratique quotidienne a l'egard des acteurs du marche financier et de l'economie. Enfin, la transposition de la directive sur les services d'investissement en droit francais par la loi du 2 juillet 1996 a donne une dimension europeenne a la c. O. B. , achevant de consacrer une dimension particuliere et superieure aux autres a. A. I
It is important to situate the place of the "commission des operations de bourse" within the classification of the independant administratif authorities (les autorites administratives independantes or a. A. I. ), and to be aware of the evolution of this commission in the overall environment of the french administrations during the last 30 years. The "commission des operations de bourse" (c. O. B) has become an authority apart before becoming a high-level administratif authority whose powers were constantly amplified by the french state. The c. O. B. Features on a daily basis in french financial markets and in the economy. Finally, the transposition of the european directif concerning investment services into french law via the law of the 2nd of july 1996 has given a european dimension to the c. O. B. This aspect has reinforced the distinct and superieur role of the c. O. B. Compared to the other independant administratif authorities

This study investigates the concept of lifecycle stage and how, specifically in New Technology Base Firms (NTBFs), lifecycle stage can provide a more refined understanding of many of the relationships people have investigated, and would like to investigate, around NTBFs. This paper is broken up into a series of studies looking at specific areas of existing research of NTBFs, namely the attributes of a CEO and their relationship with firm success as well as previously discovered determinants of innovation within NTBFs, and provides an understanding of how the lifecycle phase of a firm impacts the conclusions within this existing research. The objective of this research is to demonstrate the importance of lifecycle stage as a key variable to be considered when studying NTBFs, and to help increase the predictiveness and generalizability of existing research to enable it to be more effectively translated into best practices used by practitioners.

Full text
Abstract:
Recent reforms in teacher evaluation tie these evaluations to student performance as measured by test scores and merit pay has been offered as a way to reward high test scores and improve teacher performance. Thus, the federal Race to the Top program has led several states toward teacher evaluation instruments that incorporate outcome data in the form of student achievement. In most states, this is the first step in the plan to institute a pay for performance program for teachers, also known as merit pay. This paper analyzes the concept of merit pay through the lens of equity theory. Equity theory provides a framework to organize a workplace that is equitable, consistent, and free of self-interest. Readers are challenged to consider the implications of merit pay in light of equity theory and resultant issues for educational policy and practice.

Abstract:
La gestion hospitaliere a considerablement evolue ces dernieres decennies sous l'impulsion des mesures de regulation des depenses de sante. Ce phenomene s'est traduit par un renforcement du controle des etablissements de soins. Cependant l'hopital public est une organisation complexe dotee d'un centre operationnel, le corps medical, repute hostile a toute forme de controle. L'objet de notre recherche est precisement d'essayer de comprendre les facteurs qui favorisent l'acceptation de regles permettant la regulation des comportements du corps medical. La demarche adoptee de type hypothetico-deductive, nous a conduit, dans un premier temps, a etablir une presentation critique des instruments de maitrise des depenses et notamment du programme de medicalisation des systemes d'information (pmsi). Celui-ci constitue actuellement l'ossature du systeme de controle bien que conteste par une partie du corps medical. Dans un deuxieme temps, nous avons tente de trouver un eclairage theorique aux problemes de regulation. Dans cette perspective, la theorie des conventions s'est revelee plus adequate que les theories economiques traditionnelles. Elle nous a permis de deduire que le pmsi. Pour etre efficace, devait etre considere par la tutelle et par le corps medical comme une regle-convention. Cependant, pour acquerir ce statut, le pmsi devait presenter certaines proprietes que nous avons tentees de verifier dans un troisieme temps. Cette etude empirique comprenait deux volets distincts. Le premier a consiste a entreprendre une analyse de contenu des publications de la tutelle qui nous a permis de conclure quant a une assimilation du pmsi a une convention d'activite et non de qualite. Le deuxieme volet a consiste a apprehender la perception du pmsi par le corps medical au moyen d'un questionnaire adresse a 1400 medecins. L'analyse de 327 reponses a revele que le pmsi n'etait pas veritablement adopte par ces derniers.

Full text
Abstract:
There have been various approaches to studying the effectiveness of government performance in public administration. While some have focused on broad organizational factors, others have taken an individual level approach by applying concepts and methods from psychology and behavioral economics. This three-essay dissertation continues this latter approach by examining the role of cognitive mechanisms in explaining citizen attitudes toward government performance as well as collaborative behaviors in the public sector. The first essay explored the role of detailed versus abstract mental construals in understanding the relationship between expectations of public service performance and attitudes toward a government. Type of thinking, when it fit well with the information about either how or why public services were provided, was predicted to produce more positive attitudes toward government than in the absence of fit. However, these predictions were not confirmed. The second essay induced either an abstract or a detailed mode thinking in participants. Because abstract thinkers are more likely to focus on the desirability of outcomes, and detailed thinkers are more likely to focus on the feasibility of outcomes, it was predicted that abstract thinking, compared to detailed thinking, would create higher expectations of public services and lower perceived government performance. The findings were inconclusive. The final essay, combining prospect theory and expectancy-disconfirmation concepts, proposed a new model testing the relationship between citizen attitudes and collaborative behavior. Using a cross-sectional data set of US citizens, the results revealed a predicted non-linear relationship between citizen satisfaction with government performance and co-production.

Full text
Abstract:
L'acte executoire n'a pas, en procedure fiscale, la place que lui reconnait le droit administratif. A ce titre, l'administration fiscale est parfois dispensee de se delivrer un titre de perception, et quand un tel titre est obligatoire, celui-ci est soumis a un "enrobage" procedural tel qu'il apparait finalement comme un element d'une entite juridique plus large, l'operation fiscale. Or l'etude de l'operation fiscale, notamment celle du lien qui permet d'en affirmer l'unite se revele etre particulierement utile a expliquer les modalites de contagion des vices de procedure tout au long de la procedure fiscale. Il apparait ainsi, a la lumiere de la jurisprudence fiscale, que le juge definit tres strictement les conditions juridiques de l'unite de l'operation fiscale. Usant des multiples declinaisons d'un principe tantot pretorien, tantot legislatif d'independance des procedures, il garantit a l'administration qu'un certain nombre des vices de procedure dont elle a pu etre l'auteur beneficie d'une entiere impunite juridictionnelle. Il a donc paru necessaire de proposer que la notion d'independance des procedures soit revisitee au profit d'une conception plus realiste de l'operation fiscale : au realisme du droit fiscal doit correspondre le realisme du controle juridictionnel. La notion d'operation fiscale permet par ailleurs d'expliquer la repartition des competences juridictionnelles : le juge fiscal (judiciaire ou administratif) est ainsi appele a connaitre, nonobstant les regles de repartition de competence de droit commun, de l'ensemble des litiges trouvant leur source dans l'operation et ceci tant au contentieux de la legalite qu'a celui de la responsabilite. A l'unite de l'operation fiscale correspond celle de la competence. A l'unite de l'operation fiscale devrait enfin correspondre l'unite de son regime : une analyse de la jurisprudence revele que tel n'est pas le cas chaque fois qu'une approche globale de l'operation fiscale met en peril le droit de reprise de l'administration fiscale
An act or instrument which is enforceable at law does not have the same status, in tax procedure, as in administrative law. The tax administration may sometimes be exempt from the obligation to provide a tax collection order, and when such an order is obligatory, it is subject to a procedural 'wrapping' so that it ultimately appears as part of a wider legal entity, the 'tax operation'. However a study of the 'tax operation', in particular of the relation which enables its unity to be demonstrated, turns out to be particularly useful in explaining the way in which procedural faults contagiously affect the whole tax procedure. It would thus appear, in the light of tax jurisprudence, that the judge defines the legal conditions for the unity of the 'tax operation' very strictly. By declining a principle of 'independence of procedures' in many different ways, a principle which is sometimes praetorian sometimes legislative, the judge guarantees for the administration that a certain number of procedural faults for which it may have been responsible, benefit from complete jurisdictional impunity. It thus appeared necessary to suggest that the notion of independence of procedures be revised in favour of a more realistic conception of tax operation. In other words the realism of judicial control should match the realism of tax law. Moreover, the notion of 'tax operation' can be used to explain the distribution of jurisdiction. The tax judge (judicial or administrative) thus has to know, notwithstanding common law rules for deciding on jurisdiction, all litigation whose origins are in the 'tax operation' and both in terms of applying law and deciding upon responsibility. The jurisdictional unity must match that of the 'tax operation'. And, finally, the unity of the 'tax operation' must match the applicable law. An analysis of the jurisprudence reveals that this is not so whenever a global approach to the 'tax operation' brings into question the tax administration's right of repossession

Abstract:
La gestion du service de l'eau potable fait intervenir trois acteurs : les communes, les operateurs prives et l'etat. Les communes choisissent le mode d'organisation du service de l'eau dans un contexte strategique largement determine par l'etat et auquel les operateurs prives ont ete obliges de s'adapter. Les differents modes d'organisation relevent soit d'un modele de gestion non marchand (ou les tarifs de l'eau sont subventionnes), soit d'un modele de gestion marchand (ou les tarifs assurent le recouvrement des couts d'exploitation et d'investissement). La succession des modes d'organisation qui ont prevalu permet de caracteriser la strategie des communes en terme d'organisation de leur service d'eau. Les communes ont constamment, du debut du siecle au debut des annees 1980, opte pour le mode d'organisation qui leur offrait la possibilite de pratiquer des tarifs subventionnes. Dans cette perspective, les modes d'organisation se differencient d'abord de par leur vertu redistributive. Les differents modes d'organisation ont aussi des merites differencies du point de vue de l'efficacite economique, comme l'enseigne la theorie des contrats. L'analyse des arrets du conseil d'etat nous a permis d'etudier la regulation du service de l'eau sur longue periode et de rendre compte de ses inflexions. Nous avons ainsi mis en evidence que ce sont aussi des considerations relatives a l'efficacite economique qui ont conduit au remplacement d'un mode d'organisation par un autre. Le choix des modes d'organisation, s'il est partiellement dicte par des considerations relatives a l'efficacite economique, est un choix sous contrainte dans la mesure ou il demeure asservi au modele de gestion dominant.

Abstract:
Despite the academic gap between students with learning disabilities (LD) and their nondisabled peers, schools continue to educate students with LD in regular education classrooms. In secondary math classes, such as Algebra 1, students with LD have high percentages of failure. The purpose of this cross-sectional study was to examine the relationship between teachers' personal theories of teaching and learning and their use of math interventions. Fox's (1983) theoretical framework of teaching and learning was used as a conceptual lens. Surveys were administered to 20 high school math teachers in an urban Northeastern U.S. school district. An ordinal logistic regression statistical test was used to analyze relationships between teachers' personal theories of teaching and learning and their use of math interventions, years of experience, gender, ethnicity, and age. A statistically significant relationship was found between teachers' years of experience and their use of math interventions, p = .031. Teachers with 6 or more years of teaching experience self-reported using math interventions more frequently than did teachers with 5 or fewer years of teaching experience. Recommendations for future research include examining why teachers with more years of teaching self-reported using math interventions more than did less experienced teachers and the impact, if any, of the use of math interventions on students with LD's academic performance in Algebra 1. This study can lead to positive social change by providing college and university secondary math candidates with training on how to use math intervention to teach algebra to students with LD.

Full text
Abstract:
This research outlines a conceptual framework and data analysis process to examine multisource feedback (MSF) rater group differences from a leadership assessment survey, after testing the measures for equivalence. MSF gathers and compares ratings from supervisors, peer, followers and self and is the predominant leadership assessment tool in the United States. The results of MSF determine significant professional outcomes such as leadership development opportunities, promotions and compensation. An underlying belief behind the extensive use of MSF is that each rater group has a different set of implicit leadership theories (ILTs) they use when assessing the leader, and therefore each group is able to contribute unique insight. If this is true, research findings would find rater group consistency in leadership assessment outcomes, but they do not. A review of group comparison research reveals that most empirical MSF studies fail to perform preliminary data exploration, employ consistent models or adequately test for measurement equivalence (ME); yet industry standards strongly suggest exploratory methods whenever data sets undergo changes, and misspecified models cause biased results. Finally, ME testing is critical to ascertain if rater groups have similar conceptualizations of the factors and items in an MSF survey. If conceptual ME is not established, substantive group comparisons cannot be made. This study draws on the extant MSF, ILT and ME literature and analyzes rater group data from a large, application-based MSF leadership database. After exploring the data and running the requisite MI tests, I found that the measures upheld measurement invariance and were suitable for group comparison. Additional MI tests for substantive hypotheses support found that significant mean differences did exist among certain rater groups and dimensions, but only direct report and peer groups were consistently significantly different in all four dimensions (analytical, interpersonal, courageous and leadership effectiveness). Additionally, the interpersonal dimension was the most highly correlated with leadership effectiveness in all five rater groups. The overall findings of this study address the importance of MSF data exploration, offer alternative explanations to the disparate leadership MSF research findings to date and question the application use of MSF tools in their current form.

Nikbay, Ozgur. "An Application of Anomie and Strain Theories to Terrorism: Suicide Attacks in Turkey." VCU Scholars Compass, 2009. http://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/etd/1918.

Full text
Abstract:
A suicide attack is an extreme modus operandi of terrorism. This research examines the application of two similar sociological theories to terrorism and specifically, to suicide terrorism. Three models are built to test if Merton‘s strain theory can explain the propensities of provinces to produce terrorists and suicide bombers in the first phase. Next, in Phase 2 one model is built on a combination of altruistic and fatalistic type variables to test if Durkheim‘s anomie theory can explain the probability of a terrorist to become suicide bomber or not. The analyses of models 1, 2, and 3 are performed in Phase 1 using aggregate secondary data and the analysis of model 4 is performed in Phase 2 using individual level secondary data. While models 1 and 2 are employing multiple regression, models 3 and 4 use logistic regression analyses. Model 1 tests the propensity of a province to produce terrorists relative to six strain variables, while model 2 develops an optimum model, testing the same associations by using only three significant independent variables. Model 3 tests the probability of a province to produce a suicide bomber(s) using the same six indicators. Model 4 tests the probability of a terrorist to become a suicide bomber relative to anomie theory driven by seven indicators. The results reflect support for the overall model 1, while only the indicators of unemployment rate and political representation in the legislative assembly significantly contribute in explaining the propensity score of a province to produce a terrorist. However, the optimum model (2) includes three statistically significant indicators of unemployment rate, political representation in the legislative assembly, and quality of life. Although model 3 also emerged significant in its overall effect, only educational opportunity significantly contributes to explaining the probability of a province to produce a suicide bomber. Model 4 is also supported. The individual effects reveal that the indicators of age group, income level, and hierarchical position in the organization statistically contribute to explaining the probability of a terrorist to become a suicide bomber. In general, the research provides partial support for the application of strain and anomie theories to terrorism and suicide attacks.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis investigates whether institutional journalism should receive special treatment at the hands of the law. Special treatment encompasses the affording of benefits to and the imposition of liabilities on journalistic institutions and the individuals who work for them. The arguments against special treatment are pragmatic and theoretical: pragmatic arguments emphasise, inter alia, the difficulty of providing a definition of journalism, and theoretical arguments emphasise the difficulty in explaining why special treatment can be coherent. The former can be addressed by describing how special treatment is already afforded to institutional journalism, both liabilities and benefits, to individuals and institutions, and showing that some of the problems foreseen by the pragmatic arguments have not proved as difficult as they appear. The arguments that special treatment is incoherent can be addressed by arguing that the credibility and assessability of institutional journalism still provide a prima facie rationale for special treatment irrespective of the rise of public speech on the Internet, when combined with the integral nature of journalism to democracy. Two basic arguments are advanced why this is so. The first, the free speech values argument, is a consequentialist account that holds that special treatment is appropriate when (or because) institutional journalism contributes to free speech values. It is attractive, but presents difficulties, both when considered in the abstract and when applied to the free speech value of democracy. The second, a rights-based argument, based on the notion that freedoms of speech and of the Press are distinguishable, can be based on either on Dworkin’s theory of rights as trumps or Raz’s theory of rights as interests. Raz’s account is preferable, as it complements the free speech values thesis in explaining the coherence of special treatment.

This bachelor thesis gives insight to the reader on the 4P theory’s role in a company’s social media marketing. This is a multiple case study where the authors investigated how these two companies apply 4P theory in their social media marketing. Furthermore. social media has appeared through the era of digitalization which has become a tremendous phenomenon in a company’s marketing strategies. Therefore, there is a high competition among companies in order to attract customers through their social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter. In this thesis it is investigated of how companies applies the 4P theory in their social media. The research question of this thesis is as follows: How does a company apply 4P in its social media platforms? In order to answer the research question of this thesis, the authors have used existing theories on digitalization, the new 4P’s and the traditional 4P’s as well as empirical data in the form of semi structured interviews. The results showed that the 4P theory has an enormous role in these companies’ marketing in social media.

Full text
Abstract:
Two dominant research views addressing disappointing success rates for information technology (IT) projects suggest project success may depend on the presence of a large number of critical success factors or advocate for agile project management as an alternative to traditional practice. However, after two decades of research, success rates remain low, and the role of critical success factors or project management approach remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to use views of experienced project managers to explore the contribution of success factors and management approach to project success. Applying organizational, coordination, and contingency theories, the research questions examined IT project manager perceptions about success factors, how those success factors interrelate, and the role of management approach in project success. A Q methodology mixed method design was used to analyze subjective insights of project managers about the important critical success factors for IT projects. Two critical success factors emerged as important: a sustained commitment from upper management to the project and clear, measurable project goals and objectives. Three composite factors also surfaced representing the importance of people-project interactions, user/client involvement, and traditional project management tasks. The analyses found no broad support for agile project management and could not confirm principles of organizational or coordination theories as critical for project success. However, a contingent relationship might exist between some critical success factors and merits further investigation. Helping the project management community understand IT project success factors could improve project execution and reduce failure rates leading to sizeable savings for project clients.

Abstract:
The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM) require students with learning disabilities in mathematics to use a range of cognitive, skills, and foundational numerical competencies to learn and understand complex standards. Students with learning disabilities in mathematics experience deficits in cognitive processes skills and foundational numerical competencies which have emerged as underlying barriers associated with mastering CCSSM. Examining the impact of high-stakes assessments on readiness for college and careers and student achievement may provide evidence that deficits in cognitive processing skills and numerical competencies can impact achievement levels. Using the cognitive theoretical frameworks of Bandura and Gagné, along with the concepts of cognitive learning, instructional interventions, and inclusion, the relationship between students' scores in the algebraic foundations (AF) intervention inclusion method and the regular algebra (RA) nonintervention inclusion method, as measured on the end of the year assessments were examined in this study. An ANCOVA design was used to test the statistical significance of the relationship between the two intervention methods and the use of cognitive and numerical competencies for the two groups and to analyze the disparity in achievement scores between the AF intervention inclusion method and RA nonintervention inclusion method. The results revealed a statistically significant relationship between cognitive processing skills and foundational numerical competencies as measured on the final exam for both methods. The intended audience include academic communities using evidence-based inventions to improve college and career readiness results, leading to positive social change.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis aims to connect the fields of multilingualism and internationalisation by studying language strategies of SMEs located in Belgium. Thereby the access to foreign networks in relation to internationalisation theories and the role of language capabilities and multilingualism is examined. This combination of different academic fields in international business and linguistics has previously not been studied satisfyingly and this research thus furthermore provides theoretical and managerial implications in this matter. Hence, this study addresses the briefly presented knowledge gap by answering the research question: What effect does the multilingualism in Belgium have on an SME’s internationalisation? The two following sub-research questions have been raised additionally to ensure the ability to answer the main research question: 1. What is the impact of the multilingualism in Belgium on an SME’s liability of foreignness when going international? 2. How does a language strategy support an SME’s internationalisation process and create a multilingual capability? Empirical data is collected both qualitatively by interviewing three Belgian SMEs and quantitatively by analysing secondary data of 30 Belgian company websites and their vacancy job postings, to provide answers to these questions. The findings are analysed by applying a conceptual framework, which was created by the authors. The study’s findings summarise the presence of multiple individual language capabilities and highlight the lack and importance of institutionalising these in the SME. This step is vital to successfully access foreign networks and overcome liability of foreignness. Moreover, firm capabilities in relation to the SME’s industry are significant for the accurate implementation of a language strategy. Besides, the results show a crucial role of English in international business.

Abstract:
Le droit administratif se distingue du droit prive, par la mise en oeuvre de regles exorbitantes et par l'existence d'une juridiction administrative. Partant du principe que les situations identiques doivent etre traitees de facon identique, nous avons essaye a travers une analyse materielle des activites des personnes publiques de preciser les cas qui doivent effectivement etre soumis a un droitet a un juge different de celui des relations entre personnes privees. Dans un premier temps, l'analyse a porte sur le droit applicable aux activites publiques. Nous avons montre quel influence de l'integration de l'etat francais au sein de la communaute europeenne sur le droit interne favorise un traitement identique des personnes publiques et des personnes privees a partir du moment ou elles exercent une activite identique. La notion d'activite economique propre au droit communautaire ignore en effet la distinction entre les services publics industriels et commerciaux et les services publics administratifs. Elle se conjugue avec la notion d'activite delegable issue du droit penal pour inciter les personnes publiques a se conformer aux regles de gestion privee. Dans ce contexte les relations que les individus entretiennent avec les personnes publiques evoluent : seules les activites de police, cest-a-dire les activites indispensables a l'organisation et au fonctionnement de la cite necessitent effectivement l'application de regles de droit public. Par une comparaison systematique des activites publiques avec les activites privees, le droit administratif se transforme en droit special dans un second temps, nous avons expose les consequences de cette mutation sur la delimitation de la competence du juge administratif par rapport aux autres juridictions. Compte tenu cette fois de l'influence du droit conventionnel, cette competence nous a paru devoir se limiter aux seules contestation portant sur des actes de nomination, c'est-a-dire, des actes createurs des distinctions indispensables a l'organisation et au fonctionnement de la cite. Hormis ces hypotheses, la competence peut etre dissociee du fond. L'analyse materielle du droit administratif nous a ainsi permis a la fois de critiquer le droit positif et d'exposer une nouvelle presentation de la distinction entre le droit public et

Abstract:
The primary trouble befalling Nigeria and its Niger Delta has been described as a failure of leadership. At various periods during the late 20th and early 21st centuries, Nigeria endured a bloody civil war and years of repressive military rule. Violence in the Niger Delta region, widespread brain drain, and frequent strikes that disrupted academic calendars at universities had serious ramifications for the region's educational system. This study explores former students' perceptions of perceived leadership qualities seen in educational leaders at universities in the Niger Delta and how those qualities impact the acquired leadership skills of expatriate Nigerian postgraduates. Participants were Nigerian postgraduates living in Africa, Europe, and North America. Twenty-three men and 4 women took part in the study. Purposeful snowballing sampling procedures was used to select the sample. A mixed method design was used to collect data through structured electronic-mail surveys, and data were analyzed using constant comparative analysis procedures. Fifteen areas of influence emerged from expatriates' perceptions of these educational leaders. Areas of influence were categorized into 4 major constructs: Leading qualities, Perceived produced impacts, Perceived barriers, and Responses. Expatriates perceived few negative leading qualities but perceived too many real negative impacts that posed barriers to their acquired leadership skills. They are aware that these perceived barriers could be social, economic, environmental, and ethnic. These perceived impacts and barriers have generated fear in respondents. Anger appeared to be postgraduates' most common response to negative leadership qualities of educational leaders, while restlessness, associated with desire for effective leadership in the region appeared to be a common attitude among respondents. Because educational leadership has tremendous impact on the lives of the country's postgraduates, and in light of increasing reports of "brain drain" from the region, Nigeria's educational leadership should be researched from every possible angle. A new theoretical model of perceptions of leadership qualities should be the focus of future research as Nigerian expatriates examine their own leadership qualities and, eventually, put them to use.

Abstract:
Das Personalmanagement in der öffentlichen Verwaltung steht in Zeiten von Haushaltskürzungen und demographischem Wandel vor der Herausforderung, den gestiegenen Erwartungen an Effizienz und Effektivität mit zunehmend älteren Belegschaften zu begegnen. Als ein wesentlicher Stellhebel für den Erhalt bzw. die Steigerung der Arbeitsfähigkeit der Mitarbeiter gilt in der wissenschaftlichen Debatte die Qualität des Führungsverhaltens der Führungskräfte. Im Fokus dieser Arbeit steht das Konzept altersspezifischer Führung, das sich an den individuellen, altersspezifischen Bedürfnissen des einzelnen Mitarbeiters orientiert. Es wird mittels einer standardisierten Befragung von Führungskräften und deren Mitarbeitern in einer Dienststelle der Bundesagentur für Arbeit untersucht, ob die Ausprägung altersspezifischer Führung Einfluss auf die Qualität der dyadischen Arbeitsbeziehung von Führungskraft und Mitarbeiter (LMX-Qualität) hat. Dafür wird zunächst überprüft, wie altersspezifisch die befragten Führungskräfte führen, und welche Faktoren darauf Einfluss nehmen. Im Ergebnis der Untersuchung zeigt sich, dass ein hochsignifikanter Zusammenhang zwischen altersspezifischer Führung und der LMX-Qualität besteht. Daneben stellt sich heraus, dass die befragten Führungskräfte überwiegend altersspezifisches Führungsverhalten aufweisen, wobei jedoch zu berücksichtigen ist, dass die Ergebnisse auch durch organisationale Vorgaben beeinflusst werden, die den Handlungsspielraum der Führungskräfte begrenzen. Auch wurde für die untersuchte Stichprobe festgestellt, dass Alter und Führungserfahrung die Ausprägung altersspezifischen Führungsverhaltens beeinflussen, während sich für das Geschlecht sowie eine vorurteilsfreie Wahrnehmung älterer Mitarbeiter kein Zusammenhang gezeigt hat.
One of the main challenges for the Public Sector Human Ressource Management is to meet the risen expectancies in terms of efficiency and effectiveness in spite of a significantly higher average age of its workforce. As a key factor to maintain or even enhance the employees working ability studies identified the quality of leadership. The following thesis brings the concept of age-related leadership into focus, which deals with the individual, age-related needs of the employees’. It examines the relationship between leaders age-related leadership behaviors and followers’ perception of quality of relationship with their leaders (LMX-quality) using the example of a public sector agency. Therefore the quality of the leaders’ age-related leadership behavior has to be analyzed and furthermore, which factors are having an influence. The results show a significant influence of age-related leadership behavior on followers perceived LMX-quality. Furthermore, the study found that the polled leaders show predominantly age-related leadership behaviors, which is also influenced by organizational guidelines. It also found that age and leadership experience influence age-related leadership behavior whereas no influence of gender and leaders perception of older employees were found.

Abstract:
Knowledge has been recognized as an important resource that should be carefully managed in order to enhance organizational competitiveness. Therefore, it is important to manage knowledge resources that have been learned and stored in organizations. Several scholars in the public administration literature have examined whether public service motivation (PSM) can help employees share their knowledge in ways that contribute to the effective functioning of public organizations. However, the mechanisms by which PSM influences individuals’ propensity to share knowledge have not been clarified by past research. Against this background, at first, this study contributes to understanding the relationship between PSM and knowledge sharing by applying self-determination theory with a logical insight of the intrinsic knowledge sharing motivation process. This study also examined that relationship by testing three competing psychological mechanisms based on person-environment (P-E) fit theory: (1) person-group (P-G) fit, (2) person-job (P-J) fit, and (3) person-supervisor (P-S) fit. The research questions for this study are as follows: Do individuals with higher levels of PSM have a higher propensity toward knowledge sharing? Does the congruence between employees and their work environment increase employees’ knowledge sharing behavior? Do PSM-driven employees have higher willingness to fit in the work environment? Does P-E fit theory help explain the causal relationship between PSM and knowledge sharing? Based on primary data of 1,094 occupationally diverse employees working in 33 local governments in South Korea, the current study found that caution should be exercised when making claims regarding the effects of PSM on individuals’ propensity to share knowledge and that greater emphasis should be placed on ways public sector organizations can foster P-G fit and P-J fit. However, this study also found that the relationship between PSM and knowledge sharing is not mediated by the extent to which employees perceive that their values are congruent with those of their supervisors. Keywords: public service motivation (PSM), person-environment fit (P-E fit), person-group fit (P-G fit), person-job fit (P-J fit), person-supervisor fit (P-S fit), knowledge sharing

Abstract:
With the trend of globalization, competition on the 21st century’s global economy is complex and filled with challenges. More and more MNCs realize that effective leadership, as a foundation of competitive advantage, plays a crucial role in better performance of the organizations. Both practitioner and theorists thus pay numerous attention to the study of effective leadership in different countries. However, researchers still report noticeable absence of cross-cultural research in the field of the three major Western leaderships study, i.e. charismatic leadership, transformational leadership and transactional leadership. An urgent need raises to further investigate the major Western leadership styles in non-Western contexts. The study aims to explore the most effective leadership style in MNCs Chinese Subsidiaries and to answer the question “why it differs from the Western world?” through applying the Western leadership theories into Chinese business practices. Eventually, the causes behind these differences have been disclosed and discussed. By reviewing 18 peer-reviewed articles, the attributes of the three major Western leadership styles are identified. Subsequently, all dimensions of the three leadership styles are ranked in terms of effectiveness and activity. As a result of combining the rank and all the identified attributes, a theoretical model of the three leadership styles is proposed. Based on a multi-case study approach in the Chinese context, the empirical data is collected through semi-structured interviews with five Chinese managers and five Chinese followers. The result of qualitative data analysis suggests that the most effective Chinese leaders’ behaviors belong to the transactional leadership style. With reference to the proposed theoretical model, this finding differs from the Western leadership theories. The study further reveals the major causes that lead to the differences between the Chinese practices and the Western theories. Seven implications were thus concluded. The study contribute to better understanding the applicability and effectiveness of the Western leadership theory in non-Western contexts, particularly China, and further address the weakness of cross-culture research reported in existing literature. The implications of this study give advice to MNCs that are paying increasing attention to exploring effective leadership style in China.

Abstract:
This research investigates the mutual influence between self-management as organizational structure and intuition in decision-making. Self-management as organizational structure has recently developed as a response to current challenges in society and business, thus constitutes an emerging research field. This study is contributing empirically to this under-research field while at the same time building on the well-researched field of decision-making. In particular, this study is building on the positive view of intuition in decision-making that comes along with dual-process theories. The empirical contribution of this study is collected through semi-structured interviews with a multiple-case study research design. This study’s main finding is the confirmation of a mutual influence, even more, a positive mutual influence, between self-management as organizational structure and intuition in decision-making. Furthermore, first findings on how they are influencing each other are brought forward as well as insights into the diversity of decision-making processes when applying self-management as organizational structure.

Viešojo administravimo disciplinoje egzistuoja didelė teorinių viešojo valdymo modelių įvairovė, kuri, atrodo, nuolatos didėja. Tuo pačiu disciplinai trūksta meta‑teorijos kuri leistų nustatyti šių modelių santykį. Tai apsunkina sisteminių tyrimų viešajame administravime plėtrą. Disertacijoje atliekama dažniausiai sutinkamų literatūroje teorinių viešojo valdymo modelių tarpusavio santykių analizė ir remiantis šios analizės rezultatais tiriamas Lietuvos Respublikos Vyriausybės vaidmuo Lietuvos viešojo valdymo formavimesi ir raidoje.
The discipline of Public Administration is marked with an ever growing increase in theoretical models of governance. However, this theoretical proliferation is not matched by a meta‑theory that would allow building an understanding of the interrelation of these models. The dissertation provides an in‑depth analysis of selected theoretical models which is used as a basis of researching the role of the Government of Lithuania in the formation and development of Lithuanian public governance.
