In contrast to the much examined external factors as determinants of SME success, the present study brought focus on the entrepreneurial psychological context. This research examines the impact of individual entrepreneurial orientation on the success of SMEs in Pakistan. Moreover, this study emphasize the role of ‘action’ as a linking bridge to psychological factors and entrepreneurial outcomes, through the role of action characteristics (access to finance, social network, exploration activities, and response performance). Based on 182 responses obtained through a stratified sample of manufacturing SMEs, multiple mediation analysis was used to test the mediation. The results indicated that individual entrepreneurial orientation had a positive impact on SMEs success and all the action characteristics (access to finance, social network, exploration activities, and response performance) mediate this relationship. The study theoretically contributes to emotive perspective, action regulation theory and orientation-action-outcome perspective and offers implications for SME owners, SMEDA and training professionals.

This study investigates the role of training and development methods in improving the empowerment and professionalism among the banking industry of Pakistan. It also determines the comparison between the modern and traditional methods in private and public banks. Using purposive and convenient sampling techniques, total 380 responses were gathered from professionals working in the banking sector of Pakistan. The results showed in that private banks, professionalism and empowerment significantly get improved under modern methods in contrast with traditional methods at public banks. Moreover, findings also revealed that professionalism and empowerment are positively affected by the modern methods of training whereas there is non-significant impact of traditional training on empowerment and professionalism. Permanent employees showed greater professionalism and empowerment as compared to contractual employees. The study theorizes that modern methods of training leads to empowerment, which further enhances the professionalism among banking industry of Pakistan.

Perceived employability is the workers’ perception of comfortably getting a recruitment opportunity. This paper investigates role breadth self-efficacy and organization based self-esteem as important antecedents of individuals’ perceived employability and tests its subsequent relationship with their career success. We collected primary data from 233 respondents working in banking, insurance, and health sectors in southern Punjab Pakistan. The results reveal that individuals’ role breadth self-efficacy and organization based self-esteem are positively related to their employability perception which further plays a mediating role in the relationship between self-efficacy and employee career success and self-esteem and employee career success. Important theoretical and practical implications and direction for future research coupled with limitations of the study are discussed.

English for Specific Purposes (ESP) teaching is considered a separate activity in the domain of English Language Teaching (Dudley-Evans & St John, 1998). ESP primarily aims to prepare and fulfill a set of the communicative needs of ESP learners in academic and professional contexts. These needs serve as a guide to design relevant course content and adopt appropriate teaching method with particular emphasis on the kind of English to be taught and the topics to be covered. The current study attempts to investigate through the perceptions of ESP teachers and ESP learners the effective role of Subject Matter Specialists (henceforth SMSs) in the teaching of ESP courses at postgraduate level in Pakistan. The sample size taken for this study comprises of 10 ESP teachers selected through snowball sampling technique and 50 ESP learners chosen through purpose sampling from three different disciplines of management sciences. Open ended questionnaire and interviews were used for data collection. The data were thematically analyzed. The analysis of ESP teachers’ data suggested English language competence, pedagogic competence and awareness of the learners’ prospective communicative needs in academic and workplace contexts. The analysis of ESP learners’ data indicated that Subject Matter Specialists (henceforth SMSs) along with content area knowledge need to have good command of English language as well. From the comparative analyses of ESP teachers and ESP learners’ data, this study concludes that for effective ESP teaching to any group of ESP learners, an ESP teacher irrespective of the academic background (ELTs or Subject Matter Specialists) needs to have English language competence, pedagogic skills and how much they know about the learners’ target communicative needs.
特殊用途英语(ESP)教学被认为是英语语言教学领域的一项独立活动(Dudley-Evans & St John, 1998)。ESP的主要目的是准备和满足ESP学习者在学术和专业环境中的一系列交际需求。这些需求可以作为设计相关课程内容和采用适当教学方法的指南，特别强调要教授的英语类型和要涵盖的主题。本研究试图通过ESP教师和ESP学习者的感知来调查主题专家(以下简称短信)在巴基斯坦研究生阶段ESP课程教学中的有效作用。本研究的样本量包括通过滚雪球抽样技术从三个不同的管理科学学科中选择的10名ESP教师和50名ESP学习者。数据收集采用开放式问卷和访谈法。对数据进行了主题分析。对ESP教师数据的分析表明，ESP教师的英语语言能力、教学能力和对学习者在学术和工作环境中的预期交际需求的认识。对ESP学习者数据的分析表明，除了内容领域的知识外，Subject Matter specialist(以下简称sms)还需要具备良好的英语语言能力。通过对ESP教师和ESP学习者数据的比较分析，本研究得出结论，对于任何一组ESP学习者来说，无论学术背景(elt或Subject Matter specialist)如何，ESP教师都需要具备英语语言能力、教学技巧以及对学习者目标交际需求的了解程度。

Considerable research has performed to link the individual development strategies into organizational performance, but less is known about the role of talent management and career development in enhancing the organizational effectiveness. In the current study, we investigate how talent management and career development direct or indirect effect organizational effectiveness. Moreover, the present study also pursues to test the mediating role of employee engagement in the association between talent management and organizational effectiveness, and career development and organizational effectiveness. Using the survey method, data was collected from permanent employees of commercial banks and the proposed model was tested through structural equation modeling in AMOS. The results suggest that talent management has a substantial effect on employee engagement and organizational effectiveness. Career development has a significant effect on employee engagement and organizational effectiveness. Moreover, employee engagement significantly mediates the relationship between individual development practices (talent management and career development) and organizational effectiveness. The present study guides the bank's management to focus on individual development practices and offer development opportunities to their employees for creating competitive advantage and boosting organizational performance. Finally, the study implications and future research directions are discussed.

It is evident from the existing research that transformational leaders play a vital role toward the project success, but little is known about the channels that elaborate this effect. To unveil one of these channels, this study supposed project teamwork as the mediator between transformational leadership and project success. To test the stated empirical relationship, data were obtained from 125 project managers working on various projects of Higher Education Commission (HEC) of Pakistan. The results revealed that project teamwork partially mediates the relationship between project leadership and project success. The study has also discussed valuable implications including theoretical, practical and managerial.

Pakistan came into being as a truly democratic Islamic state, she was once a state with strong economy, stable government and policies. The golden principles of peace, liberty, and justice were preserved in its basic idea which led to the creation of an independent state. This research investigates the causes and impact of war against terrorism on Pakistan's economy, governance and social life. The data was collected through sources available on official websites, available literature were taken into consideration and by using a questionnaire from 320 respondents living in FATA area. Evidence is highlighted through tables, percentage values and graphs. Empirical results show that terrorism has substantially affected Pakistan's economy and governance in terms of unemployment, poverty, high cost of security in public and private sectors, uncertainty and high cost of doing business. Finally way forward to overcome the shortfall is suggested.
