Since infrastructure services, platform services and software services can be offered to users via Cloud Technology, the number of public and private institutions and organizations that use this technology is increasing day by day. Since no such consequences as obsolescence of the hardware or loss of any software updates are probable to occur over time, hardware and software costs, which are expended during the first stages, will decrease in the long run. A desktop research application has been carried out in the computer laboratories dedicated for the course of Basic Information Technologies of the departments, namely School of Health (SYO), Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences, Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Faculties of Architecture and Tourism all of which are situated in Kirklareli University Kayali Campus.

Resiliency have a meaning of being flexible, adapting to change, having a strong awareness, being optimistic and bounce back from risk, stress or uncertainty. The purpose of this study is to determine the personal characteristics of resilient leaders by using vignettes. The approach of this research is qualitative which was designed in two steps (structured interviews and vignette development). Based on the data gathering from interviews, short vignettes were designed for future research purposes in this area. It was found that three personality characteristics (optimism, self-efficacy and self-esteem) will determine the resilient leader behavior in the sample of basketball organization. There are several limitations that should be associated for this study. Firstly, structured interviews have the low popularity and participation. Secondly, as suggesting vignettes for this study, there is a lack of statistical data. This study is valuable to understand the relationship between personality characteristics and resilient leader behavior in sports area.

Psychological contract is non-physical agreement is in addition to economic agreements on wages and working conditions. Employees assure to work, and loyalty with this non-physical treaty and they expect safety, respectful relationship, better status. The definition of trust weaved in this research is the willingness of a party to be defenseless to the actions of another party relied on the expectation that the other will perform a particular action important to the trustor, irrespective of the ability to show or control that other party (Mayer, Davis ve Schoorman, 1995; Schoorman, ve Davis, 2007). The aim of this study is to determine the public employees working in Eskisehir the effect on trust to organization and their psychological contract violation. In this study, approximately 120 public employees working in Eskisehir survey be conducted. In this study, survey questions will emanate psychological contract violation scale made by Robinson and Rousseau (1994), organizational trust scale is Nyhan and Marlow (1997). According to the results found that the trust of the employees and the administrators decreases when the employees have violated the psychological contract.
心理契约是除工资和工作条件等经济协议外的非物质协议。员工通过这种非物质的条约来保证工作和忠诚，他们期望安全，相互尊重的关系，更好的地位。本研究编织的信任的定义是:一方对另一方的行为毫无防备的意愿，这种意愿依赖于另一方将执行对委托人重要的特定行为的期望，而不考虑显示或控制另一方的能力(Mayer, Davis ve Schoorman, 1995;肖尔曼，戴维斯，2007)。本研究的目的是确定在Eskisehir工作的公务员对组织信任的影响及其心理契约违反。本研究对约120名在Eskisehir工作的公务员进行了调查。在本研究中，调查问题将产生Robinson和Rousseau(1994)制作的心理契约违反量表，Nyhan和Marlow(1997)制作的组织信任量表。结果发现，当员工违反心理契约时，员工对管理者的信任度下降。

Since the end of the apartheid regime in South Africa, public procurement has been used explicitly to pursue socio-economic objectives. Beyond the primary goal of advancing social objectives, public procurement in South Africa is also leveraged towards generating employment, enhancing domestic manufacturing capacity, and supporting the nascent renewable energy industry. This article explores public procurement practices in South Africa, and highlights the trends and developments that have emerged since 2004 based on a theoretical review. The article reveals that the lack of clearly defined strategic goals and various misconceptions about the concept of supply chain management, have led to the need for continuous transformation of procurement practices in the quest for better services to the citizens of the country. Some of the key public procurement trends and developments that have occurred since 2004 are discussed. This article recommends that, for South Africa government to gain the full benefit of procurement processes there is an urgent need for a shared vision among key stakeholders, ethical leadership and the development of sophisticated curricula by academic institutions.

In recent years, multiculturalism and management of cultural differences issues have begun to gain importance with globalization process and these issues become to two of main research topics in literature. These topics especially have associated with the cultural intelligence which has become the focus of much research. Within the framework of these issues, this study was conducted with an aim to examine the effect of cultural differences on job satisfaction in MNCs with cultural intelligence subscales. With this purpose, the survey was prepared which comprised of three parts (demographical questions, Cultural Intelligence Scale (CQS) questions and Minnesota Job Satisfaction Scale questions). The survey of this study was conducted on 100 employees working in different firms operating in different industries in Turkey. The obtained data from the questionnaires were analyzed through the SPSS statistical packaged software. The analyses results revealed that both dimensions of cultural intelligence had effect on all dimensions of job satisfaction.

From when a project begins, an uncertain number of stakeholders participate in its planning, execution, monitoring, and controlling, and these stakeholders may change over the course of the project. Project success relies on appropriate stakeholder management and maximization of stakeholder satisfaction. Conventionally, stakeholder management relies solely on the experience and traits of project managers; thus, it can only refer to theories and principles, and cannot be implemented effectively and systematically. To solve this predicament, this study developed a mathematical model that maximizes stakeholder satisfaction considering the level of influence of stakeholders, the available engagement time, project risks, cost of changes, and engagement costs of stakeholders at every stage of a project. The model uses LINGO to calculate the most favorable engagement time for each stakeholder at every stage and maximize stakeholder satisfaction according to the project risk and influence level of stakeholders under conditions of limited engagement time and cost.
