Full textAbstract:
It is evident that generational shifts in tourist behaviour facilitate the anticipation and accommodation of future trends in the industry. Although a unique and influential tourist segment, the millennial generation of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has not been adequately researched. This paper aims to explore the travel patterns of Emirati millennials; particularly their preferences, their online travel behaviour and the impact of social media on their choices. After reviewing the academic and trade literature on millennial travelers and some cases of existing innovative practices of tourism businesses targeting millennials, the paper will present the results of a survey conducted to investigate the travel patterns of young Emirati travelers, contributing to the literature on this emerging segment which is almost nonexistent. The research offers useful insights into what Emiratis value the most, their preference for leisure travel to new destinations and the influence of travel apps and social media on their travel planning. The research led to the development of suggestions for businesses aiming to attract millennials.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this study is to understand the destination image perceptions about Australia – a Western culture country – as held by the rapidly increasing, high spending, culturally dissimilar new segment of travellers, the Emiratis[1] from the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Design/methodology/approach A qualitative methodology was used to understand the cognitive, affective and conative images of Australia. A structured categorisation matrix was used to analyse the data so that only aspects fitting the matrix were selected. Findings Within the cognitive variable, Australia was found to be pleasant, family oriented, a fun place, laid back and the local people friendly. From an affective factor perspective, Australia was seen as being exciting, because of the variety of activities available for these tourists. Exciting was expressed by words like fantastic, amazing and extreme experience. In terms of the conative variable most of the Emirati tourists expressed strong feelings to go back to Australia and to even re-visit with friends. They also mentioned that they would recommend Australia to family and friends. Research limitations/implications A limitation of this study was that our sample comprised informants mainly from the Emirates of Abu Dhabi and Dubai, the two largest Emirates of the nation. The study offers destination marketing organisations’ (DMOs) insights into Emirati travellers’ perceptions about Australia, which would benefit destination marketing. Originality/value This study examines the under researched area of how Australia – with its liberal Western culture – could be better marketed to the growing numbers of culturally conservative, high spending Emirati outbound tourists from the officially Islamic UAE, and also more generally to the socio-culturally homogeneous Gulf Cooperation Council region that the UAE is part of. Whilst destination image is an intensively analysed topic within the realm of tourism research, and reportedly a powerful influence on destination choice, the extant literature on how Australia is perceived as a travel destination by Emiratis is scant. For DMO’s attempting to attract wealthy Emirati tourists into Australia, this research is valuable and timely, as several Emiratis are seeking newer travel destinations away from the Western hemisphere, where the general anti-Arab/Islamic sentiments are currently quite strong.

Full textAbstract:
Visual communication plays a substantial role in society and, particularly in the framework of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), assumes a pivotal position in both shaping and mirroring its cultural milieu. Visual communication has played a decisive part in the transmission and interpretation of Emirati culture inside the United Arab Emirates (UAE). It encompasses a wide range of artistic expressions, both ancient and contemporary, that serve as vehicles for expressing the fundamental aspects of Emirati culture. The historical visual communication perspective in the United Arab Emirates encompasses traditional crafts and artworks and the contemporary digital media and design age. This qualitative research examines the complex interplay between visual communication and Emirati popular culture, investigating how they mutually shape each other. This study utilizes an extensive review of scholarly literature to elucidate the persistent correlation existing in visual communication and the development of popular culture in the United Arab Emirates. The results indicate that the amalgamation of visual communication and popular culture in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) produces favorable results, enhancing the cultural environment with more vibrancy and resonance. In summary, the study confirms the capacity of visual communication to influence and improve Emirati popular culture, with significant implications for forthcoming changes. The statement highlights the considerable importance of visual communication in reflecting and shaping the cultural dynamics of the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Full textAbstract:
The measurement of rate of returns is central to the profitability analysis of educational investments. Literature suggests that the ex-ante approach of measuring the perceptions of the beneficiaries is a reliable indicator of returns to education. The present study estimates the perceived rate of returns to higher education for undergraduate students in UAE. Respondents were asked to provide estimates of future expected earnings with and without higher education. The study indicates that the Emiratis and non-Emirati students differ significantly in the estimates of perceived rate of returns. The findings of this study offer strategic insights on the economic considerations in the higher education enrollment process in the UAE. It also emphasizes the need for better counseling among the Emirati school students regarding the importance of higher education and return to higher education.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is twofold: first, to understand Emirati nationals’ perceptions of the role of workforce localisation policies in their professional aspirations and growth and, second, to determine the role of higher education and job attributes in the achievement of their goals. The study uses a hierarchy-based model/road map to improve localisation efforts by attempting to aid understanding of the relationships and barriers hindering these processes. Design/methodology/approach The study follows a two-stage process. In the first stage, a questionnaire-based survey was administered to 207 Emirati postgraduate students from public and private universities based in two major Emirates: Abu Dhabi and Dubai. The sample data were analysed by basic descriptive statistics in the form of cross-relationships and rank correlation tests. In the second stage, an interpretive structural modelling approach was used to develop a hierarchy-based structural model of the barriers to localisation. Findings Emiratis younger than 30 years old consider localisation as an enabling factor in their professional success in contrast to those older than 30 years old. The results also indicate that working female Emiratis have significantly more positive attitudes regarding the contribution of localisation towards their professional success than that of their male counterparts. However, both genders see a mismatch in efforts being made to better equip themselves for the workplace. The hierarchy-based model delineates variables that could contribute to making localisation a successful employment programme in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Research limitations The findings of this study relate to the UAE. However, there are similar localisation programmes that have been implemented in other Gulf Cooperation Council states. Hence, while the results of this study are relevant to the UAE, they may not be generalisable to the entire Gulf region. Practical implications It is proposed that the research findings and the structural model of relationships may help policy makers develop suitable strategies to strengthen the Emirati localisation programme. Originality/value This study makes a contribution to the literature and can serve as a guide to policy makers for localisation programmes. This is achieved by analysing the attitude of UAE nationals studying at higher education institutions. Furthermore, the study presents a hierarchy-based model of the barriers to localisation that explains the root causes of the problem.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of the paper is to examine the quality of work life (QoWL) and its influence on job satisfaction and turnover (job-leaving) intention of Emirati women employed in various public sector organizations in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Design/methodology/approach Data were collected through a structured questionnaire gleaned from literature, and were analyzed through partial least squares structural equation modeling. Findings QoWL was found to have a significant relationship with all variables in the model, and was found, as hypothesized, to have a positive effect on job satisfaction and a negative effect on turnover intention. Research limitations/implications One of the main limitations of this study is that the sample is drawn from only Emirati female employees who were working in public organizations based in the Abu Dhabi region, the capital of UAE, and hence, cannot be generalized. Practical implications This study helps policy makers by identifying crucial points that can improve Emirati female employees’ QoWL with a commensurate reduction in turnover intention in a collectivistic society. Public sector organizations should address the factors that directly affect Emirati women’s QoWL and job satisfaction, as it will ultimately result in less staff turnover, greater productivity, and will also support the localization strategy. Originality/value The study is one of the first enquiries which stresses the importance of understanding how Emirati female employees perceive and categorize themselves as a valuable element of the workplace alongside the significance of augmenting their sense of belongingness to their organization.

Full textAbstract:
PurposeThe study aims to explore the factors that influence Emirati women's career choice in the UAE. This study contributes to the influence of context in career choices by investigating how Emirati women chose information technology (IT) as a profession through the lens of the social cognitive career theory.Design/methodology/approachThis study undertook in-depth interviews with 21 Emirati women working in technology in the UAE. The study considers women's career choices at three levels, i.e. from an individual, organisational and national context perspective.FindingsThe key findings include identifying the importance of national context in influencing career choices among other factors such as family centrality, desire to be seen as a role model, company reputation and government policy.Practical implicationsThe study has wider implications for women's career choices in other contexts. The findings highlight the challenges women face, such as a lack of role models and family centrality, which need to be considered in recruitment policies and practices in other national contexts.Originality/valueThe originality of the study is its contribution to the literature developing understanding of the influences on women's career choices in the Emirates. While previous studies have identified the role of patriarchal influence on women's careers, we have less understanding of the importance attributed to individual factors such as being perceived as a role model within their family and to society. Similarly, the literature provides limited evidence of the influence of factors such as government sponsorship and company reputation.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose This paper aims to form an empirical study, stemming from a Middle-Eastern context, on eliminating gender discrimination and achieving women’s empowerment. It aims to develop a conceptual model on the principal social and cultural factors inducing the success of Emirati women in attaining senior leadership roles and shaping their leadership style to be transformational. Moreover, it examines the comparability and divergence of the accumulated data on the empowerment of Emirati women in an international context from existing international literature. Design/methodology/approach The design of the study was based on data gathered from face-to-face, semi-structured interviews with four Emirati women occupying the highest leadership positions in various fields, followed by thematic analysis. Findings Data analysis confirmed the significant influence of the study’s key factors, namely, the role of the national government, Islamic work ethic and family, on the subjects’ empowerment and their adherence to transformational leadership style. However, two new k ey factors impacting empowerment emerged, namely, the influence of rulers’ leadership and the efforts in balancing work/life commitments. The findings led to the development of a study model on Emirati women empowerment and leadership style, reflecting the appropriateness of international literature on the Emirati context. Particularly, it is the social and economic circumstances of the nation supported by policies form the major source of empowerment, in addition to the important role that family capital and business ethics play. Remarkably, the challenges facing Emirati working women ought to be different than the rest of the Middle East. Originality/value A dearth of literature pertaining to women’s leadership exists; however, they were mostly carried out within Western contexts that may not be applicable to Arab societies because of cultural and religious differences. The study strives to portray an unambiguous picture to the significant impact of the parenting role and Islam work ethics in relating positively to their daughters and prompt them to develop crucial societal and professional skills, in a country as UAE where expatriates and Westerns dominate the population body. In addition, it shapes the UAE national government as a unique example and role model, to local governments in other Arab states, to learn from regarding supporting women, helping them to achieve excellence. Aiming for feminizing leadership, the Emirati women leadership styles are explored in an attempt to demonstrate the capacities and potentials of Emirati and Arab women in positions of power and influence. It is assumed that this study will help in bringing confidence in Emirati women capabilities, inducing a change in attitudes towards Arab women managers and encouraging employment in non-traditional feminine based jobs.

Purpose: This study is aiming to examine the factors that contribute to the increasing rate of Emirati employees leaving their jobs in Ras Al Khaima private sector. It will demonstrate how these factors affect employees and result in their decision to leave their jobs. Additionally, which factor has the most impact on their intentions to resign will be identified. Moreover, what Human Resource Management do in response to that issue in order to strengthen their organization's position in the business market. According to the findings, this paper will attempt to introduce and propose some recommendations on how Human Resource Management can attract Emirati people to work in Ras Al Khaima private sector. Methodology: To handle this problem, the research will depend on the based-literature review methodology. The study relied on literature review to infer the factors that contribute to the increasing turnover rate among Emirati employees in Ras Al Khaima private sector. A comprehensive review of relevant academic and empirical literature was conducted to find out these factors. Findings: The main finding of the study is the positive relationship between job satisfaction and salary, rewards, benefits & compensation, as well as flexible work practices and career development opportunities. Job satisfaction decreases the employee intention to quit their jobs. Additionally, shorter working hours which is needed to achieve work-life balance is related positively to employee retention and decreases turnover rate among employees. The paper also concluded that organizational support, fairness perception, and work-family culture are critical variables in employee retention. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study will provide new insights that would incorporate different views on employee turnover relevant to the Emirati context particularly in the private sector of Ras Al Khaimah. It will offer some recommendations that will enable policymakers to develop measures that can help reduce turnover rates among Emirati employees. It will also help in improving the HR practices according to the awareness of the socio-cultural and economic characteristics that affect the Emirati workers. Additionally, the policy recommendations may inform the creation of laws and measures that could enhance the employment status and satisfaction of Emirati employees in the private sector. The paper recommends creating strategic Emiratization initiatives, enhancing work environment through focusing on cultural values, engaging HR managers in setting UAE-specific HRM models that account for cultural and organizational peculiarities.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the influence of a range of factors on the decision of female Emirati students to join the private sector as a career choice. Design/methodology/approach This study employs the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to prioritise the factors affecting Emirati students’ choice of career. The AHP model was developed with five criteria and 19 sub-criteria based on previous literature. Data were collected through interviews of 12 female Emirati students enroled in higher educational institutions in the UAE. The respondents were selected from both public and private universities on the basis of their majors and their academic performance (GPA). The data collected were interpreted and a priority vector was assigned to each criterion and sub-criterion. Findings The findings show that emotional stability for engineering students and job-skills mismatch for business students are the most important factors that influence the career choice of female Emirati students in the private sector. Research limitations/implications Authors can develop this model in their academic pursuits, and the AHP method can be used to solve employment-related decision-making problems in the private sector. Also, the findings can help policy makers and related associations to develop various policies based on the specific factors found to empower female Emirati students in the private sector in an effective manner. Originality/value The low rates of employment of the native population in the private sector is a major issue in the UAE. The study is the first of its kind to propose an AHP model that prioritises the factors which influence female Emirati students to join the private sector.

AbstractThis study analyzes the magnitude of emigration of India’s high-skill population in the United Arab Emirates through the exploration of the determinants of emigrant mobility using both an empirical and qualitative approach. It also examines the historical patterns of migration to the GCC region with a focus on the socioeconomic impact of skilled immigration of Indian expatriates in the UAE economy. Furthermore, the chapter attempts to assess the role played by remittances, Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), and knowledge and technology transfers as key economic resources towards the development of the national economy and the potential reversal of the impact of ‘brain drain’. This requires an evaluation of the role played by key stakeholders in the facilitation of migration, providing an alternate outlook on the perceived ‘drain’ and inequality that surrounds the dialog on South-to-North migration. Lastly, the research contributes to the limited literature on transnational entrepreneurs and return and reverse migration, as the most understudied aspect of international migration, to illustrate how the migrant identity is constantly fluid and evolving and ultimately beneficial to both the host and home economy.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThe use of blended educational approaches, including HyFlex simulation in recent years and during the COVID-19 pandemic, has impacted medical education and has drawn attention to a new teaching method. However, integrating new teaching methods has its advantages and disadvantages. The effectiveness of HyFlex simulation is not well studied in the literature. The study aims to assess the effectiveness of HyFlex simulation-based clinical learning in comparison to traditional learning in undergraduate clinical education. The study collected demographic data, satisfaction, effectiveness, and acceptance. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The mean scores of satisfactions and previous experience among graduates and students were compared using an independent sample t-test. A p-value of less than 0.05 was used as the significant level. One hundred twenty-four participants in this cross-sectional study completed an online survey. These were graduates (n = 62) and students (n = 62) from the University of Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates. The results showed that students had positive feedback about the HyFlex simulation learning method, especially the content, design, rationale, effect of simulation in acquiring knowledge and improving objective achievement. In addition, HyFlex boosted students’ knowledge enhanced student-centered learning and clinical practice assessment. However, they reported that face-to-face learning was significantly more effective for acquiring practical skills than HyFlex simulation learning.

Full textAbstract:
Vahid Brown’s chapter examines the role of the Salafi Emirate of Kunar’s role in shaping the development of transnational salafi jihadi networks while also focusing on the fault lines within the same. The chapter brings out the significance of this previously little studied Afghan mujahidin movement in forming links between the Gulf and Afghanistan-Pakistan. Explaining the Emirate of Kunar’s brand of jihadi Salafism as a creation based on previous ties with South Asian Ahl-i-Hadith movement and Gulf Salafism, the chapter identifies it as a precursor to the ISIS brand in Iraq and Syria. In its progression, the chapter traces the historical emergence of the emirate followed by an examination of the writings of the Gulf Salafi mashayikh on Jamil al-Rahman, its founder, and the emirate itself. Subsequently, the Afghan Arab literature on the Salafis of Kunar is reviewed.

The aim of this paper is to empirically explore the perception of a group of United Arab Emirates (UAE) web users towards e-commerce transactions, study their willingness to trade online, and isolate factors that drive these users towards purchase decisions. The study finds that web users largely use functional characteristics to assess the effectiveness of e-commerce websites, and are driven towards online purchase decisions by factors such as greater security, better value, and convenience. Overall, web experience was defined by the users in terms of three main dimensions; website features, credibility and trust, and transaction value. Practitioners can use these findings to improve their websites and online offers to better serve this market. The paper fills an identified gap in the literature by investigating the perceptions of the UAE web users, and makes a contribution towards studying the concept of online shopping in this region.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose - The current study integrated number of research fields to develop and test a model on the determinants of employees’ happiness and creativity. Hypothesizing that quality of work life, perceived training intensity and job security affect employees’ happiness and creativity in in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Public sector. Design - The study uses survey data from 120 employees from public sector companies in United Arab Emirates (UAE). Based on an extensive literature review, eight hypotheses were formulated and explored. These were tested through multiple regression analysis using smart PLS Partial Least Squares. Findings – Work life balance, perceived training intensity and job security showed no significant relationship. However, the relationships only exist through the feeling of happiness. Research limitation – The sample is from a single sector (public) in a single country. Future research would benefit from examining the above relationships in privet sector in the UAE. It could also explore the validity of these relationships in the public sector of other countries in the Middle East and Gulf regions. Originality/value –few studies have adequately examined their determinants particularly in UAE. Although research examining the employee creativity in public sector is limited, it is clear that public sector stands to gain from creative employees because employee creativity and innovation will contribute to the attainment of organizational goals. KEY WORDS-Employee creativity, Employee happiness, Job security, Training, Work-life balance, Human resources, UAE, Public sector Paper Type –Research paper
