Continuous Improvements (CI) is well-known for its significance in driving and facilitating process and products improvements in organizations. For decades, large organizations used CI to improve and streamline process and workforce. CI thinking and adoption is critical for IT functions to improve aspects such as innovation, team productivity, service reliability, and cost optimization. The role of organization culture, leadership, employee engagement become key for adoption of CI to ensure stability, scalability, and sustainability to business functions through right tools, technologies, and services. There is need for research on the influence of trio on adoption of CI in the context of IT. The trio are interrelated components that play a crucial role in the success and sustainability of any organization. The aim of this study is to evaluate these three factors, its influence on adoption of CI by IT function using a quantitative approach. This study engages IT stakeholders from ITES, global companies which have their global IT development centres in India to ascertain their views. The finding of the study shows organization culture has a strong influence on adoption of CI in IT. This study can provide critical insights to management in streamlining IT practice, design organization mechanisms for better adoption of CI in IT.
众所周知,持续改进(CI)在推动和促进企业改进流程和产品方面具有重要意义。几十年来,大型企业利用 CI 来改进和精简流程和员工队伍。CI 思维和采用对于 IT 部门改进创新、团队生产力、服务可靠性和成本优化等方面至关重要。组织文化、领导力和员工参与是采用 CI 的关键,通过正确的工具、技术和服务确保业务功能的稳定性、可扩展性和可持续性。在信息技术领域,有必要研究三要素对采用 CI 的影响。三要素是相互关联的组成部分,对任何组织的成功和可持续发展都起着至关重要的作用。本研究旨在采用定量方法评估这三个因素及其对 IT 部门采用 CI 的影响。本研究邀请在印度设有全球 IT 开发中心的 ITES 和全球性公司的 IT 利益相关者参与,以确定他们的观点。研究结果表明,组织文化对 IT 部门采用 CI 有很大影响。本研究可为管理层提供重要见解,帮助他们简化 IT 实践、设计组织机制,以更好地在 IT 中采用 CI。

To attract qualified profiles, known as talents, and to retain them, many enterprises are actively leveraging on employer branding. The objective of this research is to shed light on the role played by the concept of employer branding, defined as the set of brand image assets with respect to employees and their impact on human resources loyalty. Our hypothetico-deductive research method will be completed by conducting an empirical study based on a series of semi-structured interviews with 10 large companies listed on Casablanca stock exchange market. We suggest a model to articulate the employer brand around three key dimensions: low propensity to seek a new job, affective engagement and task performance. The collected and analyzed feedback led us to a clear and obvious conclusion. The intention to leave the company, the affective commitment as well as the performance in the task are directly impacted by the attributes of the employer brand. Therefore, organizational loyalty is influenced by the employer brand. The latter is a powerful loyalty tool that allows the company to retain talent. Further research should be conducted to explore the potential of employer branding as a powerful tool for talent retention.

Since ancient times, each culture had an object called an “amulet” as a spiritual anchor to protect people from negative energy, evil, and injury. Humans were born in the world, and they need to confront many things for living their lives and survival. These things occurred with fear, pain, suffering, and others. Hence, amulets were created to strengthen mental power for getting ready to fight against what humans were unable to overcome. Humane belief in amulets has been passed down from generation to generation until today, the era of technological advancement and goodness. Those prosperities are a tool that humans can use to eliminate problems and feelings reasonably, such as small Buddha images, amulets, and symbols in different forms. Thus, this article aims to reveal knowledge or some theoretical opinions to support the legitimacy of amulet art containing history, art, culture, and phenomena by proof and references from research studies that present the importance of objects or amulet art in terms of how they have an effect or produce any factor on humans and what is the main purpose of amulet art that can be proven by scientific theories (scientific tools) from utilization and mental development and restoration rather than credulity.

The EU and the PRC have recently introduced new regulatory standards governing specific online platforms, intermediaries, and markets. As an agenda to enhance digital governance, regulatory initiatives have been made on various frontiers governing digital services and digital markets to enhance both domestic and cross-border online transactions. These developments arguably enhance the relevance of the evolving European and Chinese regulatory frameworks as a stimulating subject for comparative law studies. The present paper examines the evolving key regulatory standards governing digital services and markets in Europe and the PRC and assesses their effectiveness in enhancing digital governance. The paper examines the specific regulations governing online platforms, intermediaries, and digital markets to determine the interests, obligations, and liabilities of key stakeholders. The paper assesses the effectiveness of newly introduced market regulatory standards to protect businesses and end users from the dominance of key online players. The paper argues the need for other key jurisdictions, including China, to rejuvenate their domestic digital regulatory framework with reference to the evolving European regulatory standards. The paper concludes with an analysis based on the key findings of the paper and points out the referential utility of the European experience for prospective legal harmonization needs.

Tax evasion is still justified by Malaysian citizens as being tolerable and acceptable, as seen by the greater number of tax evasion cases and rise in unpaid tax figures in the country. This study examines the connection between attitude, perceived behaviour control and subjective norms towards tax evasion behaviour between the accounting and non-accounting background employees. This study adopts a quantitative methodology and based on non-probability sampling of Malaysian individual taxpayers. Google forms were used to collect all the data, then analysed using SPSS 22.0. The results indicate that employees with accounting backgrounds behave differently than those without an accounting background in terms of their aim to evade taxes. All variables show a positive correlation with tax evasion behaviour for employees with non-accounting backgrounds. However, among workers with accounting backgrounds, only subjective norms show a positive impact on tax evasion behaviour. As compares to non-accounting background employees, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control influence the intention to engage in tax evasion. The findings of this study may help employers prevent unintended tax evasion by educating employees on handling their tax returns. Additionally, this outcome will add value to the new knowledge particularly in the literature on tax compliance.

This study seeks to examine the recognition and enforcement of EU employment judgements under private international law (PIL). The objectives are to examine the legal framework regulating the recognition and enforceability of employment decisions and to assess the influence of Brexit on EU-UK employment-related rulings. The methodology includes a comprehensive review of applicable EU legislation, case law, and employment-related regulations. This will reveal the conditions for recognising and enforcing employment decisions, the function of the EU Regulation on jurisdiction and judgements, and the scope of the EU Directive on judgement enforcement. The findings will elucidate the complexities and difficulties of PIL in employment matters, including the implications of Brexit. They will promote legal certainty and safeguard employee rights in the EU. Policymakers, legal practitioners, and stakeholders in cross-border employment disputes will gain valuable insights. Based on the results of future research, legal framework reforms may be proposed. Comparative studies of PIL frameworks in other jurisdictions could contribute to the expansion of employment law knowledge internationally.

Globalization has prompted a multicultural retheorization of both consumer and market (Fu et al., 2014; Riefler et al., 2012; Kipnis et al., 2019). In short, the Canadian multicultural market consists of international goods which are authentic, domestic goods purporting authenticity (e.g., orientalizing), and multinational, fusion innovations that are authentic-ish (e.g., self-orientalizing; Hui, 2019; Li, 2020; Stephens, 2021). What results is a fetishistic commercialization of multiculturalism, where brands are packaging ethnicity and race to vie for consumer attention. This paper addresses the latter variety — self-orientalist packaging designed for products born out of (formerly) Chinese Canadian enterprises, namely Wong Wing Fried Rice. Developing an analytical and theoretical approach that can support the identification of racialization, racist typologies are situated in graphic design. Themes derived from the analysis include racism, orientalism, self-orientalism, exoticism, cultural appropriation, among others. Findings reveal how self-orientalist packaging and label design is discursively negotiated as both internalized racism and anti-racist resistance, necessitating a more nuanced approach that reflects the sociopolitical context in which products are branded. The adoption of transversalist tenets, an anti-racist modality outlined by the methodological component of this study, presents one possibility.
全球化促使消费者和市场的多元文化重新理论化(Fu et al., 2014;Riefler等,2012;Kipnis et al., 2019)。简而言之,加拿大的多元文化市场包括具有真实性的国际商品、具有真实性的国内商品(例如,东方化)和具有真实性的跨国融合创新(例如,自我东方化;回族,2019;李,2020;史蒂芬斯,2021)。其结果是多元文化主义的盲目商业化,品牌正在包装民族和种族,以争夺消费者的注意力。本文讨论的是后一种——为(原)加拿大华人企业生产的产品设计的自我东方主义包装,即黄荣炒饭。发展一种分析和理论方法,可以支持种族化的识别,种族主义类型学位于平面设计中。从分析中得出的主题包括种族主义、东方主义、自我东方主义、异国情调、文化挪用等。研究结果揭示了自我东方主义的包装和标签设计是如何作为内化的种族主义和反种族主义抵抗而进行话语协商的,需要一种更细致入微的方法来反映产品品牌所处的社会政治背景。采用横向主义原则,即本研究方法部分概述的一种反种族主义方式,提出了一种可能性。

Electronic learning (e-learning), pedagogy using online technology without physical proximity among the people involved, accelerated due to the recent pandemic and continues its metamorphosis in our endemic world. This new world creates new opportunities to apply e-learning in global contexts, by itself or blended with traditional methods as conditions warrant. Four iterations of a model are described and discussed in terms of adaptability, student satisfaction variables, development of intercultural competence, and global identity. The newest iteration combines previous iterations' e-learning and experiential learning opportunities with participants' occupational and program-specific experiences. The authors include testable outcomes and future possibilities.

This study aims to examine the roles of digital media in reserving tribal handicrafts corresponding to the key government policy in protecting livelihoods, arts, and cultures of tribes in Thailand. The results of the study reveal that in the 21st century, digital media play a suitable role for today's society in communicating with the audience about identities of local handicrafts. The contents are, then, perceived quickly and properly. Modern media can also enrich social values, reach out a more expansive range of the audience, and harmonize the context of Thai society. We often see the tribal handicrafts as a cultural selling point in movies, animations, advertisements, games, and online applications. Involving digital media in storing the way of life as well as recording cultural patterns and stories is beneficial resulting in the intercultural media where the digital age meets unique cultures. The creativity of digital media leads to commercial values known as a creative business to reserve tribal handicrafts in society for good.

The purpose of this academic article was to proof the phrase “Phygital Experiences” by present the merging of digital experiences and real-life experiences in the view of value and aesthetics through 5 roles of digital approach, namely, the role of digital age towards education, the role of digital age towards work, the role of digital age towards economy, the role of digital age towards art and culture, and the role of digital age towards tourism. The study results revealed that technological evolution brings about new forms of interaction that people across the world consume and treat each other. Though digital experience enables people to have comfort, access information and communicate with each other more easily, people do not have profundity and meticulousness to understand experience. On the contrary, real-life experiences offer more experiences of participation in terms of sensory perception or emotional perception. However, they are unable to offer borderless connection and data accessibility as comfortable as digital experiences. Therefore, it can be said that digital experiences and real-life experiences cannot be separated since both of them can fulfill human’s good experiences in a different way, making humans feel fulfilled and enjoyable while they can admire things surrounding themselves. Humans receive benefits from technologies while connecting to the world they can touch.

The study results revealed that technological evolution brings about new forms of interaction that people across the world consume and treat each other. Though digital experience enables people to have comfort, access information and communicate with each other more easily, people do not have profundity and meticulousness to understand experience. On the contrary, real-life experiences offer more experiences of participation in terms of sensory perception or emotional perception. However, they are unable to offer borderless connection and data accessibility as comfortable as digital experiences. Therefore, it can be said that digital experiences and real-life experiences cannot be separated since both of them can fulfill human’s good experiences in a different way, making humans feel fulfilled and enjoyable while they can admire things surrounding themselves. Humans receive benefits from technologies while connecting to the world they can touch.","PeriodicalId":197416,"journal":{"name":"PEOPLE: International Journal of Social Sciences","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133914600","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
