Abstract:
Agriculture represents a class or expression of complexity which researchers need to look at because of its immense contribution to rural development and poverty reduction. Scientists and researchers per their disciplinary training and specialisations differ in wider perspectives and methodologies. In addition to the compartment functioning processes of organisations, fluid interaction and collaboration of actors are further limited. This study examines how actors in Crops for the Future (CFF) interacted formally and informally as a complex agricultural research organisation to address the tra

Abstract: There are many and varied views on the role of the management consultant. Roles range from the  functional perspective  to  variations of  the  critical perspective.

Adding to the mix is that there is even poorer  understanding  of how  the  implementation of a new  concept af-fects the consultant’s role.

5-10% of hereditary breast cancer cases are caused by germline mutations in well-defined, dominantly acting susceptibility genes such as BRCA1 and BRCA2.

In the following thesis, we present a multifaceted approach aimed at further elucidating hereditary breast cancer associated with BRCA1 and BRCA2 interacting genes; specifically, by analyzing the potential contribution from of two previously unscreened BRCA1-associating genes, RAP80 and Abraxas, assessing the presence and risk associated with

In a further four studies we also investigate the role of affect and executive functions as explanatory mechanisms.

Abstract:
The rationale that effective internal communication plays a crucial role in aligning employees to organisational goals, and in so doing, inculcate employee engagement and help an organisation to succeed, is remodelling internal communication management within organisations.
