Abstract:
Motivations for volunteering described by functional theory are loosely related to the types and duration of these activities. The motivating effects of individuals’ social- and role-based identities may need inclusion. Identity theories suggest that entering a specific service activity depends on whether the service benefits a social group with which a person identifies, while persisting in the work depends on rewards and legitimation gained from the role-identity of “volunteer.” Former cardiac patients’ motivations for engaging in peer-support volunteering were explored ( n = 84).

Abstract:
Abstract Young people don't want to work in oil and gas. Despite above average salaries and a resurgence in hiring, the industry faces a systemic, immediate risk of talent shortage due to changing public sentiments. This paper seeks to understand why new graduates are eschewing these types of careers, what paths they are currently following, and how alignment with their priorities may improve the industry's hiring prospects. This paper is in part a response to two previous SPE publications written by 2016 SPE President Dr. Nathan Meehan: 2019's The End of Petroleum Engineering as We Know It an

Abstract:
One of the most important factors that increase student's preoccupation towards entrepreneurship is the way they are inspired by university studies to take action in this direction. This exploratory research aims at determining how student's previous experience in using educational platforms helps them when deciding to become an entrepreneur. The authors analyze how able are students and graduates of University Politehnica of Bucharest to recognize business opportunities, what their motivations would be in starting their own company and also if they feel the university environment and educatio

Abstract:
Few commercial banks have engaged in profitable microfinance lending despite repeated attempts by donor agencies to entice their entry. The case of Banco de la Empresa, a Latin American private bank, illustrates how penetration of the microenterprise market segment could evolve. This paper reviews the bank's experience with microfinance, what its motivations were for starting such a program, what adjustments it made in operating procedures and what risks the program faced. The study is based on a real experience of the Inter-American Development Bank but in order to preserve the confidentialit

Abstract:
This document provides a short literature review on the complementarity (and antagonisms) between liability rules, safety regulation and insurance and their effect on safety management. It draws on a range of disciplines, with a focus on economic analysis of law and regulation theory. Some of the issues discussed are rather complex; this document attempts to provide simple explanations together with references to the professional literature for the interested reader. Some issues are the subject of ongoing debate between scholars; in such situations, we have attempted to present the various poi

Abstract:
The starting point of the research project was the hypothesis that the "principle of proportionality", which is fundamental to law, is related to the "economic principle". The resulting methodological similarities were intended to enable a cross-disciplinary bridge to be built, which would allow the findings of economic analysis to be made fruitful for legal issues. This was practically tested in three study areas in order to be able to better classify the performance of the analytical tools. The foundations for interdisciplinary bridge building are found in the rational-choice paradigm. In bo

Abstract:
Entrepreneurship is crucial to advancing the economy of Cambodia and fostering the development of society. The Royal Government of Cambodia has recognised the importance of entrepreneurship and included the promotion and entrepreneurship education in multiple policies and strategy. Universities and higher education institutes have been more active in providing entrepreneurship education (EE) as well as services and facilities to support startups in recent years. However, to date, there is very limited research on how young people in Cambodia perceive and prepare for entrepreneurial careers. Th
