Organisational change is a sophisticated and challenging process. As a result, many organisations that embark on change initiatives fail to achieve their intended goals and sometimes change leads to high costs, which undermine its benefits. However, despite these challenges, it is becoming increasingly important for organisations to embrace change for their survival and success owing to the dynamic and rapidly changing business environment caused mainly by technological advancement. This research aimed to investigate the role of leadership in managing change. The study employed a qualitative approach and drew a sample of 10 participants who are department managers. These candidates perform managerial and leadership responsibilities in the organization understudy. The study employed purposive sampling and thematic analysis to analyse the data. The findings suggested that leadership plays a fundamental role in change management. The leadership roles found include motivating employees, creating a vision for change, communicating change, planning for change, creating a conducive environment for change, getting employees’ buy-in and leading staff by example.
组织变革是一个复杂而富有挑战性的过程。因此,许多组织开始进行变革活动,但未能实现其预期目标,有时变革会导致高成本,从而破坏其收益。然而,尽管存在这些挑战,由于主要由技术进步引起的动态和快速变化的商业环境,组织为生存和成功接受变革变得越来越重要。本研究旨在探讨领导力在管理变革中的作用。这项研究采用了定性方法,选取了10名部门经理作为样本。这些候选人在组织中执行管理和领导职责。本研究采用目的性抽样和专题分析的方法对数据进行分析。研究结果表明,领导力在变革管理中起着根本性的作用。领导角色包括激励员工,为变革创造愿景,沟通变革,为变革做计划,为变革创造有利的环境,让员工接受并以身作则。

Although ISO certification has become compulsory, it is unclear what impact ISO certification has on the South African medical device industry and how the forced ISO certification will affect individual companies and the industry with regard to the quality of products and service delivery. Furthermore, no research to date has been performed specifically on the contribution or impact of ISO certification in the IVD industry in South Africa. Through an in-depth synthesis of published research, and by triangulating the literature on quality in the medical domain, the researchers have conceptualized possible relationships between various quality constructs and ISO quality certification with respect to in-vitro diagnostics. This conceptual study will contribute specifically to the South African IVD market and possibly other IVD markets worldwide to understand how certification issues will impact quality, customer service, operations, and performance.
虽然ISO认证已成为强制性的,但目前尚不清楚ISO认证对南非医疗器械行业的影响,以及强制ISO认证将如何影响个别公司和行业的产品质量和服务交付。此外,迄今为止还没有专门研究ISO认证对南非IVD行业的贡献或影响。通过对已发表研究的深入综合,并对医学领域的质量文献进行三角测量,研究人员概念化了有关体外诊断的各种质量结构与ISO质量认证之间的可能关系。这一概念性研究将特别有助于南非IVD市场以及可能的全球其他IVD市场了解认证问题将如何影响质量、客户服务、运营和性能。

Retail Banking Service Quality and Customer Loyalty: The Role of Trust and Commitment as Mediators 零售银行服务质量与客户忠诚度:信任和承诺的中介作用
Pub Date : 2023-09-12 DOI: 10.32479/irmm.14658
Ephrem Habtemichael Redda, Marko Van Deventer
This research examines how service quality, trust, commitment, and loyalty are related in retail banking. The study proposes a model that includes trust and commitment as mediating factors between service quality, and bank loyalty. The researchers collected data from 271 participants and used a descriptive design and quantitative approach to analyse the data. The study utilized the PROCESS macro-Version 3.5 to conduct the mediation analysis. The results indicate that service quality in retail banking has a positive impact on customer trust and commitment, which, in turn, predict customer loyalty. The mediation analysis reveals that trust and commitment play a significant role in mediating the relationship between service quality and customer loyalty. Since the direct effect of service quality on loyalty remained significant after the intervention/mediation of trust and commitment in the model, the mediation is interpreted as partial mediation. Findings of the study do provide a marketing guide to banking professionals who design and implement banking solutions in the retail banking environment.
本研究探讨零售银行服务品质、信任、承诺及忠诚度之间的关系。本研究提出了一个包含信任和承诺作为服务质量与银行忠诚度之间中介因素的模型。研究人员收集了271名参与者的数据,并采用描述性设计和定量方法对数据进行分析。本研究使用PROCESS宏版本3.5进行中介分析。结果表明,零售银行服务质量对客户信任和承诺有正向影响,客户信任和承诺反过来预测客户忠诚度。中介分析发现,信任和承诺在服务质量与顾客忠诚之间的中介作用显著。由于在模型中经过信任和承诺的干预/中介后,服务质量对忠诚度的直接影响仍然显著,因此可以将其解释为部分中介。研究结果确实为在零售银行环境中设计和实施银行解决方案的银行专业人士提供了营销指南。

This paper provided an overview of earnings quality research by assessing whether area of future research and challenge identified in prior studies have been addressed in the literature. Specifically, the study discussed two areas of earnings quality that have received attention in the last decade: the impact of fair value accounting on earnings quality and the models used to measure accrual quality. A comment on earnings quality during the COVID-19 pandemic is also provided. The study revealed that fair value accounting affect earnings quality and the empirical results on the effect of fair value on earnings quality are mixed and depend on the environment in which the firm operates. The study also showed that, earlier models used to measure accrual quality are still currently been used and the literature has evolved to take into consideration the innate and discretionary components of earnings quality. However, it is still not clear whether the models used to separate earnings quality into its components are effective. This paper contributes to knowledge by synthesizing new insight into the current state of knowledge on some aspects of earnings quality research. The study further identified unanswered questions in the field, which provides direction for future studies.
本文通过评估文献中是否解决了先前研究中确定的未来研究领域和挑战,概述了盈余质量研究。具体而言,该研究讨论了过去十年中受到关注的盈余质量的两个领域:公允价值会计对盈余质量的影响以及用于衡量应计质量的模型。本文还对新冠肺炎疫情期间的盈利质量进行了评论。研究发现公允价值会计影响盈余质量,公允价值对盈余质量影响的实证结果是混合的,并且取决于公司经营环境。该研究还表明,用于衡量应计质量的早期模型目前仍在使用,并且文献已经发展到考虑盈余质量的固有和可自由支配成分。然而,目前尚不清楚用于将盈余质量分解为其组成部分的模型是否有效。本文通过综合对盈余质量研究某些方面的知识现状的新见解来贡献知识。该研究进一步确定了该领域尚未解决的问题,为今后的研究提供了方向。

Analysis of Demand for Fish in Urban Malawi 马拉维城市鱼类需求分析
Pub Date : 2023-09-12 DOI: 10.32479/irmm.14529

The purpose of this study was to find the drivers of demand for various fish species in urban Malawi. Previous demand studies on the fisheries sector in Malawi have, mainly, treated fish as a homogenous commodity thereby making information regarding households’ general consumption patterns for different fish species scanty. This study, therefore, concentrates on the disaggregated analysis of the demand for the major fish species caught and consumed in Malawi. It focuses on fish from both capture fishery and aquaculture sub-sectors namely; Engraulicypris sardella (usipa), Copadichromis spp (utaka), Lethrinops spp (kambuzi); Clarias gariepinus (mlamba); Rhamphochromis spp (mcheni); Barbus Paludinosus (matemba); and Lake Malawi tilapia (chambo). It employs primary data collected from the households in Blantyre city using a multistage stratified random sampling method. Results show that the demand for usipa is influenced by a household’s location in a high-density area, and has low-income levels. Utaka, on the other hand, is positively influenced by the age of the household head and the number of people employed in the household while chambo is positively influenced by the high education level of the household head, high-income levels, and the household’s location in the high-density areas. The study has also found that mcheni and mlamba are positively influenced by income levels while the demand for matemba is positively the household head’s state of being married but it is negatively influenced by the number of children in the household. Policy implications arising from this study are that in the course of carrying out market segmentation, the fish marketers in Malawi must concentrate on selling usipa to households in high-density areas and focus on households with low-income levels. The selling of utaka while chambo should mainly be sold to households whose heads have high education, have high-income levels, and are located in high-density areas.
这项研究的目的是找出马拉维城市对各种鱼类需求的驱动因素。以前关于马拉维渔业部门的需求研究主要把鱼当作一种同质商品,因此关于家庭对不同鱼类的一般消费模式的资料很少。因此,本研究集中于对马拉维捕获和消费的主要鱼类的需求进行分类分析。它侧重于捕获渔业和水产养殖分部门的鱼类,即;Engraulicypris sardella (usipa), Copadichromis属(utaka), Lethrinops属(kambuzi);Clarias gariepinus (mlamba);Rhamphochromis属;巴伯斯·帕鲁德诺索斯;和马拉维湖罗非鱼(昌博)。本研究采用多阶段分层随机抽样方法,从布兰太尔市的住户中收集原始数据。研究结果表明,居民家庭对住宅用地的需求受其所处高密度地区的影响,且存在低收入水平;另一方面,Utaka受到户主年龄和家庭就业人数的积极影响,而chambo则受到户主的高学历、高收入水平和家庭在高密度地区的位置的积极影响。研究还发现,mcheni和mlamba受到收入水平的积极影响,而对matemba的需求受到户主婚姻状况的积极影响,但受到家庭子女数量的消极影响。这项研究产生的政策影响是,在进行市场细分的过程中,马拉维的鱼类营销商必须把重点放在向高密度地区的家庭销售usipa,并把重点放在低收入水平的家庭。卖utaka和chambo应该主要卖给户主文化程度高、收入水平高、居住在人口密集地区的家庭。

Employees are arguably the most valuable asset of any organization since they can create value and provide organizations with a long-term competitive edge. Therefore, they are crucial to the organization's success, and the effectiveness of the organization is determined by the productivity of its workforce. It has become increasingly common for employees to use cyberspace extensively at work, often causing work to be postponed and resulting in client dissatisfaction. The primary objective of this study was to determine whether employees' time spent in cyberspace impacted their performance and their relationships with clients. The sample was drawn at random from employees whose workplaces had internet access as well as clients of the organization. We use the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) test and Pearson's correlation coefficient to determine the strength of the relationship between the variables. The results of the study indicate that employee productivity is negatively correlated with Cyberspace Activities at Office Time (SAO).
员工可以说是任何组织最宝贵的资产,因为他们可以创造价值,为组织提供长期的竞争优势。因此,他们对组织的成功是至关重要的,组织的有效性是由其劳动力的生产力决定的。员工在工作中广泛使用网络空间已经变得越来越普遍,这往往导致工作推迟,并导致客户不满。本研究的主要目的是确定员工在网络空间中花费的时间是否会影响他们的绩效和他们与客户的关系。样本是随机抽取的,从工作场所有互联网接入的员工以及该组织的客户中抽取。我们使用方差分析(ANOVA)检验和Pearson相关系数来确定变量之间关系的强度。研究结果表明,员工生产力与办公时间网络空间活动呈负相关。

The diffusion of mobile money technology has changed the financial landscape across countries in Sub–Saharan Africa, including Tanzania. Women entrepreneurs can use mobile money services to improve business performance by increasing income earning. The study adopted a capability approach to investigate the effect of mobile money services on the income-earning of women’s second-hand cloth entrepreneurs in Dodoma City. Triangulation mixed method was used to collect both qualitative and quantitative data from Sabasaba and Machinga complexes as big market centers. The research surveyed a total of 50 women second-hand cloth entrepreneurs and interviewed 15 key informants. The quantitative data were analyzed by using both descriptive and inferential statistics with the aid of SPSS while qualitative data used content analysis. The result revealed a significant relationship between mobile money saving and the income-earning of women second-hand cloth entrepreneurs. The findings further show that entrepreneurs use informal help groups for borrowing and bank services transactions as coping strategies for solving the challenges of using mobile money services for income earning. The study recommends the collaboration between regulators, entrepreneurs, and private stakeholders to solve challenges that hinder business efforts of increasing income by using mobile money services.

Investigating the Influence of a Product-Harm Crisis on Consumer Buying Behaviour: A Focus on the Listeriosis Crisis 产品伤害危机对消费者购买行为的影响调查——以李斯特菌病危机为中心
Pub Date : 2023-07-07 DOI: 10.32479/irmm.14118
Siyasanga Mgoduka, Shalen Heeralal
Product-harm crises often lead to negative publicity which substantially affects the consumers intention to make a purchase. This study attempts to investigate the influence of a product-harm crisis on consumer purchasing behaviour. Consumers are the most essential stakeholders for any organization, their core behavior is very vital for financial affluence and successful marketing. This study aims to investigate the influence of a product-harm crisis on consumer purchasing behaviour, with reference to the Listeriosis crisis. Data was collected from 384 randomly selected food retail store shoppers at empangeni and Richards Bay, using a quantitative research approach. Data was collected through the use of questionnaires. The findings from this study revealed that there was a positive significant correlation between the level of education and post-purchase behaviour. These findings suggest that consumers that are more educated tend to be more critical in analyzing a crisis. This study contributes to the existing body of knowledge on brand management by examining the influence of a product-harm crisis on consumer purchasing behaviour. The research concludes that brands should always have a positive relationship with consumers. Mainly because this current study has revealed that consumers response to a brand crisis is determined by the relationship they share with the brand along with the prior expectations they had about the brand.
产品危害危机往往会导致负面宣传,从而严重影响消费者的购买意愿。本研究试图调查产品伤害危机对消费者购买行为的影响。消费者是任何组织最重要的利益相关者,他们的核心行为对财务富裕和成功的营销至关重要。本研究旨在参考李斯特菌病危机,调查产品伤害危机对消费者购买行为的影响。采用定量研究方法,从empangeni和Richards Bay的384名随机选择的食品零售店购物者中收集数据。数据是通过问卷调查收集的。这项研究的结果表明,教育水平与购买后行为之间存在显著的正相关。这些发现表明,受过更多教育的消费者在分析危机时往往更挑剔。本研究通过考察产品伤害危机对消费者购买行为的影响,为现有的品牌管理知识体系做出了贡献。研究得出的结论是,品牌应该始终与消费者保持积极的关系。主要是因为目前的研究表明,消费者对品牌危机的反应是由他们与品牌的关系以及他们之前对品牌的期望决定的。

Data was collected from 384 randomly selected food retail store shoppers at empangeni and Richards Bay, using a quantitative research approach. Data was collected through the use of questionnaires. The findings from this study revealed that there was a positive significant correlation between the level of education and post-purchase behaviour. These findings suggest that consumers that are more educated tend to be more critical in analyzing a crisis. This study contributes to the existing body of knowledge on brand management by examining the influence of a product-harm crisis on consumer purchasing behaviour. The research concludes that brands should always have a positive relationship with consumers. Mainly because this current study has revealed that consumers response to a brand crisis is determined by the relationship they share with the brand along with the prior expectations they had about the brand.","PeriodicalId":30298,"journal":{"name":"International Review of Management and Marketing","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46429175","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}

Aspiring multinational companies have very few guidelines on how to expand their businesses beyond South Africa, unlike established multinational companies. The plight of aspiring multinational companies finding business opportunities beyond national borders highlights the importance of properly understanding the international business environment. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the availability of information for aspiring multinational companies. The study employs a quantitative method, and the population is 196 managers of aspiring multinational companies in South Africa. The primary data for this study was obtained by administering questionnaires to managers of aspiring multinational companies in South Africa. The findings of the study revealed that companies that have been in operation for less than three years have a challenge accessing the information to successfully penetrate multinational business markets. These challenges experienced by the newer aspiring multinational companies emanate from the fact that they do not have any guidelines on what needs to be in place and from where they can get the information. It is recommended that aspiring multinational corporations in South Africa access information on running multinational businesses, especially information on the regulatory and economic environment such as international laws, local spending, and the public environment.
与老牌跨国公司不同,雄心勃勃的跨国公司在如何将业务扩展到南非以外的地方几乎没有指导方针。雄心勃勃的跨国公司在国界之外寻找商机的困境凸显了正确理解国际商业环境的重要性。本研究的目的是评估有抱负的跨国公司的信息可得性。该研究采用了定量方法,研究对象为196名南非有抱负的跨国公司的经理。本研究的主要数据是通过对南非有抱负的跨国公司的管理人员进行问卷调查获得的。研究结果显示,经营不到三年的公司在获取信息以成功打入跨国商业市场方面面临挑战。新兴的有抱负的跨国公司所面临的这些挑战源于这样一个事实,即他们没有任何关于需要到位的指导方针以及他们可以从哪里获得信息。建议有抱负的跨国公司在南非获取有关经营跨国企业的信息,特别是有关法规和经济环境的信息,如国际法、当地支出和公共环境。

Employee performance (EP) is an important variable that can improve company performance. Many studies have examined various factors that influence EP. Compensation, motivation, and job satisfaction (JS) are three important variables that have been shown to have an effect EP. This study aimed to examine the model of the relationship between the four variables. By using 520 government company employees in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, the results of model testing proved that compensation, motivation, and JS were related to EP. The results of the mediation model testing using structural equation modeling (SEM) found that motivation also played a role as a mediating variable for the relationship between financial rewards and EP. In this relationship model, motivation was able to increase JS, but employees who feel satisfied cannot guarantee that they will perform better.
员工绩效是影响公司绩效的一个重要变量。许多研究检查了影响EP的各种因素。薪酬、动机和工作满意度(JS)是三个重要的变量,已被证明对工作绩效有影响。本研究旨在检验这四个变量之间的关系模型。通过对印度尼西亚日惹市520名政府企业员工进行模型检验,结果证明薪酬、激励、JS与绩效相关。结构方程模型(SEM)的中介模型检验结果发现,动机在财务奖励与绩效之间的关系中也起到中介变量的作用。在这个关系模型中,动机能够增加JS,但是员工感到满意并不能保证他们会表现得更好。
