The current research study aims to analyze the impact of cash holding on investment efficiency by moderating the role of corporate governance among financially distressed firms. The data for 14 years (2006-2019) is gathered from 400 companies of two Asian emerging economies (Pakistan and India). The results are obtained by applying a generalized method of moments (GMM), which postulates that corporate governance improves cash holding with investment efficiency in the Indian scenario and decreases in the Pakistani scenario. Concerning financially distressed firms, corporate governance strengthens the relationship of cash holding with investment efficiency in the Pakistani context but showing no moderating role in the Indian scenario. The results are helpful in cash management decisions to minimize the agency issue and to avail investment opportunities.

The relationship between behavioural characteristics (both rational and irrational measures) and capital structure determinants has been empirically validated. This study examines the influence of the behavioural traits of overconfidence and optimism on capital structure determinations by IDX-listed public Indonesian firms’ (Tbks) management. This is statistically tested via a comprehensive hypothesis modelling construct that includes empirically validated capital structure determinants (market timing, profitability, tangibility, size and their impacts on stock price). Panel regression PLS and path analysis were performed on stock price data and financial metrics extracted from the 2013–2020 financial statements of 55 Tbks from the LQ-45 and Kompas-100 stock indices. This study found that Optimism, Market Timing and Adjusted Debt on Market Timing are not determinants of capital structure for Tbks, while Overconfidence and the control variables Firm Profitability, Firm’s Asset Tangibility and Firm Size were statistically validated as capital structure determinants. Overconfidence (as a behavioural bias) is observed to have significant negative influence on management’s capital structure determinations, while Optimism has insignificant positive influence. The less aggressive leveraged models adopted by the sampled Tbks may indicate that implemented good principles of corporate governance have played a role in preventing capital structure determinations skewed by managements’ behavioural biases or psychological tendencies.

The aim of this paper is to explore the influence of training and development on employee’s performance through different dimensions. Moreover, this study proposes a model in the area of human resource development to be used for testing and improving the performance of employees in the Indian travel and tourism sector. An integrated model was developed highlighting the relationship between the training and development and employee performance. Using the sample of 146 employees, structural equation modelling (SEM) was employed to validate the hypothesized relationship by evaluating the responses of employees working in the Indian travel agencies. The findings of this study demonstrate a strong relationship between training and development and employee performance in the travel industry and also can be used by managers and HR professionals for organizing exclusive training programs for improving employee's performance based on the dimensions used in this paper. The present study provides an empirical and theoretical explanation of different dimensions associated with training and development and employee performance, especially in the Indian tourism industry.

There are many leadership styles, which have different impacts on employees' performance. In higher education, faculty performance depends on many factors including Leadership style & Organizational culture. This study aims to examine the effect of leadership styles on faculty performance (FP) and more specifically to examine the moderating effect of Organizational Culture in the association between leadership styles and faculty performance in higher education institutions (MUET, Jamshoro). This study used quantitative methodology to identify the leadership styles which exist in MUET, Jamshoro, and their impact on faculty performance with organizational culture as moderator. It used both the sampling techniques probability and non-probability, and the sample size was 384 and the data was analyzed in SmartPLS 3. For leadership style, Full Range Leadership Model was adopted and for organizational culture, Competing Value Framework (CVF) was used. This study found that Transformational (TF) leadership has a positive significant relation with faculty performance at MUET, Jamshoro. And Organizational Culture (OC) as moderator negatively moderates the relation between Laissez-faire (LF) leadership and faculty performance (FP). According to faculty, transformational leadership is best suited to promote their performance on account of giving them challenging work, autonomy, mutual trust, through supporting subordinates' creativity, improving their confidence, and maintaining collaborations. Laissez-faire leadership also exists in an academic institution and has a positive impact on faculty performance. However, Transactional leadership has a negative impact on faculty performance. The future study could be conducted in other universities, or a comparison of leadership styles can be made between public and private universities with different models of leadership style and with different organizational culture models.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between organizational health and the performance of employees in the extractive industry. The quantitative approach was employed as the research methodology by the researchers. Participants in the study are individuals who are employed by companies that are involved in the extraction of minerals and other resources. Three hundred forty-three valid questionnaires were recovered for further analysis from a sample of 360 employees who were found to be an appropriate fit for delivering the study questionnaire to them. The findings of the study indicate that organizational health, as measured by its dimensions (communication, trust, cohesiveness, targeting, and creativity), had a statistically significant impact on the employees’ performance at the extractive sectors in Jordan. The researchers provided a number of recommendations, including the necessity to build unified and fair administrative accountability mechanisms, as well as the need for extractive companies’ decision makers to collaborate in order to understand the demands and requirements of employees.

This study aimed to develop a conceptual model of the role of organizational support in moderating the effect of competence and organizational commitment on management performance. The population was 150 managers of the National Sports Committee of Indonesia in the city, regency and province of Riau. The entire population was sampled and the data was processed using Structural Equation Modeling Partial Least Square (SEM PLS). The study found that competence and organizational commitment have no effect on management performance and organizational support acts as the moderator of the effect of competence and organizational commitment on management performance. Organizational support is a pure moderator that amplifies the effect of organizational commitment on management performance.

In service firms, customer orientation and service innovativeness are the important strategic features to pledge sustainable wealth and growth for financial performance. Focusing on customer means, companies must have rigorous knowledge and understanding of customer needs, expectations, and demands. To satisfy those demands and expectations, new products and/or services need to be carefully designed. Customer orientation involves the introduction of something new or different in response to market conditions and can be perceived as an important driver for innovation. The literature on innovation in services demonstrates that this territory is still under-investigated. Our study is an attempt to slightly complement this shortcoming by empirically solving several issues related to service firms. In particular, we propose the service innovativeness as a mediating effect in the relationship between customer orientation and financial performance. A theoretical research model was investigated via structural equation modeling (SEM) using 686 survey responses from the service industry. The findings of the structural equation model indicated that customer orientation is positively related to financial performance and service innovativeness respectively. And service innovativeness was found as a partial mediating effect, which means that the service innovativeness intervenes for some part but not all of the relationships between customer orientation and financial performance.

Self-service technologies (SSTs) are systems that enable customers to independently access banking services at a time and place of their choosing. Such technologies have been widely incorporated into banking logistical systems to increase the geographical coverage, reduce labor costs and provide customers with a better service, thereby enhancing their satisfaction and loyalty. The fundamental aim of this research is to propose and examine a conceptual model that best explains the key factors influencing Jordanian customers' intentions and usage of SST banking channels: Internet banking, Mobile banking, and Telebanking. The conceptual model proposed was based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT2). This was extended by adding perceived risk as an external factor. A quantitative approach was selected and data gathered from 348 bank customers was analyzed through Structural equation modelling (SEM) was conducted using AMOS 21. The results show that behavioral intention is significantly influenced by performance expectancy, hedonic motivation, price value and perceived risk; however, social influences do not have a significant influence on behavioral intention. This study makes an important contribution by applying UTAUT2 to examine new technology (SSTs) in a new context (Jordan).
