Most of these departments run post-graduate programmes leading to MA. and PhD - degrees. As a result, considerable research activity related to both the Kiswahili language and literature has been going on. This is evident from

Abstract:
To achieve effectiveness and efficiency in public enterprises, change is needed. Due to the rapid changing global environment and increasing demand for service delivery, continuous change is needed. Changes have been taking place in the Kenyan public sector since 2003. The public enterprises in Kenya, like in most countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, have been characterised by slow and bureaucratic processes that retard organisational performance. Employees and managers in these enterprises have been perceived as not performing as they should. Kenyan public enterprises are important to the economy

In order to achieve these results, university managers must make decisions on how to allocate available funding throughout the university.

Abstract:
The research was triggered by widespread criticisms from its constituencies about the relevance of MBAs, allegedly instigated by its dual academic and utilitarian purposes in developing functionally and ethically competent managers. Using Malaysia as the research focus, the perceptions of three MBA stakeholders (i.e. business schools/management educators, industries and students) were explored on the adequacy of MBA provisions by its public universities in preparing professionally and ethically competent managers. Their opinions were gauged on several subjective terms, each carrying the dual a

Abstract:
The study looked at the trends toward the privatization or contract management of auxiliary services such as college bookstores at four year public universities to determine the degree that self-operated or leased bookstores support the campus based on the level of service quality being provided to students, financial support to the institution, academic support to the campus and other factors. The use of the SERVQUAL (1991) instrument was effective in evaluating levels of consumer satisfaction in the bookstore industry. Student satisfaction with newly leased bookstores was significantly highe

Abstract:
Subject of this dissertation is a study on China’s recent personnel reforms of state universities. Two main methodological approaches have been followed: the so called “inside out” approach, which considers the reforms as based on features specific to the Chinese society, and the so called “outside in” approach, which aims to explain those reforms through a comparison with the models applied in the Western world. According to the first approach, the Sun Yat­Sen University and the Guangzhou University, both located in the Guangdong Province, have been

Abstract:
Leadership on the African continent has been a focus of scholars as African nations have incredible human and natural resources but seem to be bereft of the leaders necessary to capitalize on its opportunities. Researchers acknowledge that the barrier to progress in the developing world is not the deficiency of money or natural resources, but suggested it to be the lack of leadership. Researchers have demonstrated reasons for this deficiency including the effects of the colonial system upon people and civil service systems, but have yet been able to establish a promising path to economic and s
