Lean management practice has now become a critical and regular practice to achieve organizational competitiveness. Many companies such as manufacturing industry have been implementing the lean approach for many years however; there are still organizations that have a long way to go to become leaner. In this regard the grain milling industry in Kenya suffers non-competitiveness owing to problem of broad production which has remained in place as advanced technology takes its roots in Africa. Thus, the general objective of the study was to find out the effects of lean management practices on competitiveness of grain milling firms in Uasin Gishu County-Kenya. The study investigated the effects of total production maintenance practices, total flow management practices on competitiveness. This study adopted descriptive survey research design with a target population 686 employees from the four grain mailing companies in Uasin Gishu County. The sample size was 292 respondents to take care of non-response rate. Data was analyzed by use of descriptive and inferential techniques using SPSS version 25 and presented using tables. From the findings the value of adjusted R squared is 0.465 an indication that there was a variation of 46.5% on the competitiveness in grain milling firms in Uasin Gishu county due to total production maintenance (TPM) and total flow management (TFM) at 95% confidence interval. Thus all the lean management practices under study have a significant effect on competitiveness as supported by both Porters generic theory and resource based view. This implies that the strategic bundling of these lean management practices remains a strategic pillar for competitiveness. There is need for the grain milling industry to strategically invest their resources to lean management practices to set them apart from their competitors.
精益管理实践现已成为实现组织竞争力的关键和常规实践。然而,许多公司,如制造业,已经实施精益方法多年;有些组织要变得更精简还有很长的路要走。在这方面,肯尼亚的谷物碾磨业由于广泛生产的问题而缺乏竞争力,而随着先进技术在非洲扎根,这种问题仍然存在。因此,研究的总体目标是找出精益管理实践对肯尼亚瓦辛吉舒县粮食加工企业竞争力的影响。本研究考察了全面生产维护实践、全面流程管理实践对竞争力的影响。本研究采用描述性调查研究设计,以瓦新市桂蜀县四家粮食邮递公司的686名员工为研究对象。样本量为292名受访者照顾无回复率。数据分析采用描述性和推理技术使用SPSS版本25,并提出了表格。研究结果表明,调整后的R平方值为0.465,表明在95%置信区间上,瓦新吉舒县粮食加工企业的竞争力由于全面生产维持(TPM)和全面流量管理(TFM)而发生了46.5%的变化。因此,所研究的所有精益管理实践都对竞争力有显著的影响,这得到了波特的一般理论和资源基础观点的支持。这意味着这些精益管理实践的战略捆绑仍然是竞争力的战略支柱。谷物加工行业需要战略性地将其资源投入精益管理实践,以使其与竞争对手区分开来。

Leadership is a determinant of the success or failure of any organization. A leader is an individual who induces others and guides them to execute particular duties and to give their best towards achieving the desired goals. Leadership style is a pattern and approach of providing guidance, implementing plans, and motivating people. The role of a leader is critical for the survival and progress of an organization. Leadership helps in developing the organization's objectives, values, and vision. Besides the leadership style of top management, there are the roles of Board of Directors that have a significant impact on organizational performance. The alignment between Board of directors' roles and top management leadership style should be taken into consideration because ineffective coordination between them will influence the organizational performance.
领导力是任何组织成功或失败的决定因素。领导者是诱导他人并指导他们执行特定职责并尽最大努力实现预期目标的人。领导风格是提供指导、实施计划和激励员工的一种模式和方法。领导者的角色对一个组织的生存和进步至关重要。领导力有助于发展组织的目标、价值观和愿景。除了高层管理者的领导风格外,董事会的角色对组织绩效也有显著的影响。董事会角色与最高管理层领导风格的一致性需要考虑,因为两者之间的协调不力会影响组织绩效。

The variations in financial performances of firms listed at Nairobi Securities Exchange in Kenya are dependent on the decision made by the board of directors, more so on capital structure. While from the previous studies, there has been an inadequate linkage of board capital and financial performance with other themes. Firms listed in Kenya have financed their operation with more equity as compared to debt. The purpose of this study is to establish the moderating role of board capital on the relationship between firm leverage and financial performance for the firms listed at Nairobi Securities Exchange Kenya. The study objectives are to examine the effect of; Firm leverage on the financial performance of listed firm at Nairobi Securities Exchange in Kenya and establish whether board capital has an interactive relationship on firm leverage and financial performance. The steward theory and trade-off theory informed the. The philosophical foundation underpinning the study was positivism and an explanatory research design. The target population comprised all the 65 firms listed at NSE in Kenya. The sample was done using inclusive and exclusive criteria, and secondary data was used to collect data and information. All the suspended and delisted firms were excluded. As a result, panel data from audited financial reports were collected from 40 firms listed. Four hundred observations were, therefore, obtained from firms listed. Descriptive statistics were used, and inferential statistics. In addition, panel regression analysis was employed to establish the nature and significance of the relationship between independent variables and dependent variable with leverage with beta β= -.295, ρ<.05 to financial performance. Later the process was repeated with the moderating variable the results showed a significant moderating effect of board capital on the relationship between leverage and financial performance ((R2∆=0.07,β= 0.03; ρ<0.05) The study found out that the board capital had an enhancing moderation effect on leverage and the study found out that firm boards of Directors are able to advise on how to vary the leverage while meeting the listing requirements to suit the operations for the company, with the board, there should also be a sound management of firms leverage to the extent of improving financial performance. Theoretically, the enhancing effect of board capital by the firms listed in NSE validates the stewardship theory, which is on the premise that directors and managers are trustworthy and fair stewards of the resources entrusted to them. In addition, this research would equip regulators, owners and investment advisors of firms listed on how to improve their financial performance. Finally, the researcher recommends a further study focusing on firms not listed in NSE to ascertain whether the study results hold.
肯尼亚内罗毕证券交易所上市公司财务绩效的差异不仅取决于董事会的决策,更取决于资本结构。而从以往的研究来看,董事会资本和财务绩效与其他主题的联系并不充分。与债务相比,在肯尼亚上市的公司以更多的股权融资。本研究的目的是为肯尼亚内罗毕证券交易所上市公司建立董事会资本对公司杠杆与财务绩效之间关系的调节作用。研究的目的是检验的影响;企业杠杆对肯尼亚内罗毕证券交易所上市公司财务绩效的影响,并建立董事会资本对企业杠杆与财务绩效之间是否存在互动关系。管家理论和交易理论为。支撑本研究的哲学基础是实证主义和解释性研究设计。目标人群包括在肯尼亚国家证券交易所上市的所有65家公司。样本采用包容性和排他性标准,并使用二手数据收集数据和信息。所有停牌和退市的公司都被排除在外。因此,从40家上市公司的经审计财务报告中收集了面板数据。因此,从列出的公司中获得了400条观察结果。采用描述性统计和推断性统计。此外,采用面板回归分析,以β β= -建立自变量与因变量与杠杆关系的性质和显著性。295年,ρ<。05到财务业绩。随后用调节变量重复该过程,结果显示董事会资本对杠杆与财务绩效的关系有显著的调节作用(R2∆=0.07,β= 0.03;ρ<0.05)研究发现,董事会资本对杠杆具有增强调节作用,研究发现,公司董事会能够在满足上市要求的同时,就如何改变杠杆提出建议,以适应公司的运营,董事会还应该对公司杠杆进行健全的管理,以提高财务绩效。从理论上讲,NSE上市公司董事会资本的增强效应验证了管理理论,该理论的前提是董事和经理是委托给他们的资源的值得信赖和公平的管理者。此外,该研究将为上市公司的监管者、所有者和投资顾问提供如何改善其财务绩效的知识。最后,研究人员建议对未在NSE上市的公司进行进一步研究,以确定研究结果是否成立。

Consumers Attitude Towards Celebrity Endorsement on Advertisement 消费者对明星代言广告的态度
Pub Date : 2021-02-01 DOI: 10.29226/tr1001.2021.257
Ziarat H. Khan, Shams Istihad, M. Ali
This study examined the influence of celebrity endorsed advertisement on consumer’s purchase decision. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship of the endorser’s gender, credibility, attractiveness, type (celebrity vs. non-celebrity) as well as multiple endorsements and whether celebrity endorsements affect the buying behavior of the people or whether there is a shift in their perceived behavior because of celebrity endorsements by evaluating specific independent variables of celebrities. It appears from the research findings that celebrity endorsement of advertisement does have significant influence on consumers over an advertisement that is not endorsed. This research has combined various factors as independent variable and consumers’ attitude as dependent variable to build a conceptual model, where some variables are taken from previous findings and adjusted in accordance with the local needs. All the correlation matrixes presented in the study, indicate that there is a positive relationship between the variables and consumers purchasing intentions. However, some of the variables used to explain the consumers’ attitude towards celebrity endorsement are found to be insignificant. The study suggests the marketers or companies to ensure the gender and type of the celebrity should remain the prime concern for satisfy the consumers and generate positive attitude towards the product or brand.
本研究考察了名人代言广告对消费者购买决策的影响。本研究的主要目的是通过评估名人的特定自变量,探讨代言者的性别、可信度、吸引力、类型(名人与非名人)以及多重代言之间的关系,以及名人代言是否会影响人们的购买行为,或者是否会因为名人代言而改变他们的感知行为。从研究结果来看,名人代言的广告确实比没有代言的广告对消费者有显著的影响。本研究将各种因素作为自变量,将消费者的态度作为因变量,构建了一个概念模型,其中一些变量来自于以往的研究结果,并根据当地的需求进行了调整。研究中所有的相关矩阵都表明,变量与消费者购买意愿之间存在正相关关系。然而,一些用来解释消费者对名人代言态度的变量被发现是微不足道的。该研究表明,营销人员或公司应该确保明星的性别和类型仍然是满足消费者并对产品或品牌产生积极态度的首要关注点。

Behavioural factors play an important role in decision making which entails overconfidence, Anchoring, Prospecting, Herding. However, behavioural factors are associated with some personal and enterprise features. Therefore, the paper seeks to investigate the influence of demographic characteristical and behavioural factors among Small and Micro Enterprises. The study was premised on the Behavioural Portfolio. Positivism paradigm was deployed. The study adopted explanatory research design. The target population of the study was 102,821 owners of SMEs in Nairobi County in Kenya. A sample of 383 respondents was selected using stratified random sampling technique. ANOVA was used in analysis using 5% significant level to test hypotheses. The study found that firm size had significant effect on anchoring and prospect factor. However, enterprenuers’ education has significant influence on behavioural factors. Similarly, organization origin has significant effect on behavioural factors. The study recommends that Entrepreneur experince has significant effect on overconfidence, anchoring factors, and herding factors. Therefore, it is important for enterprenuers to gain more experience since it influences the behavioural factors. Similar, the enterprenuers education has significant influence of overconfidence, anchoring factors, prospect factors and herding factors. Therefore, enterprenuer should improve knowledge through going through education to reduce behavioral factor in decision making process.
行为因素在决策过程中起着重要作用,包括过度自信、锚定、勘探和羊群行为。然而,行为因素与一些个人和企业特征有关。因此,本文试图探讨人口特征和行为因素对小微企业的影响。这项研究是以行为组合为前提的。运用实证主义范式。本研究采用解释性研究设计。该研究的目标人群是肯尼亚内罗毕县的102,821名中小企业所有者。采用分层随机抽样方法,抽取383名受访者。分析采用方差分析,采用5%显著性水平检验假设。研究发现,企业规模对锚定因素和前景因素有显著影响。然而,企业家的教育对行为因素有显著的影响。同样,组织起源对行为因素也有显著影响。研究表明,企业家经历对过度自信、锚定因素和羊群因素有显著影响。因此,对于企业家来说,获得更多的经验是很重要的,因为它影响着行为因素。同样,企业家教育对过度自信、锚定因素、前景因素和羊群因素的影响也显著。因此,企业家应该通过教育来提高知识水平,减少决策过程中的行为因素。

This paper investigated the mediation effect of relationship marketing programs on the relationship between cultural values and customer satisfaction in the hotel industry of Uganda. This study was relevant because the current era of growing competition and changing customer expectations within the hotel industry, compels hotels to devise strategies to attain a competitive advantage. Cultural values enhance and guide relationship-marketing programs which increase customer satisfaction. A quantitative survey design focusing on hotel customers was adopted to investigate the envisaged linkage between cultural values, relationship-marketing programs and customer satisfaction. The results of the study indicated that relationship-marketing programs partially mediates the relationship between cultural values and customer satisfaction. The study results provide a reason for hotel managers to devote more resources towards cultural values in a bid to enhance relationship-marketing programs, which resonates customer satisfaction. The results of the study support the idea that cultural values through relationship marketing programs generate a sustainable psychological satisfaction for customers and a high market share for the organization, more importantly in an environment that is multi-cultural in nature. The study recommends hotel managers to regularly consider the multi-cultural faceted society when designing relationship-marketing programs in order to build a long-term relationship with customers.

The study results provide a reason for hotel managers to devote more resources towards cultural values in a bid to enhance relationship-marketing programs, which resonates customer satisfaction. The results of the study support the idea that cultural values through relationship marketing programs generate a sustainable psychological satisfaction for customers and a high market share for the organization, more importantly in an environment that is multi-cultural in nature.
