The study was aimed to investigate the moderating role of job experience between perceived organizational support and organizational commitment among university employees. The target population was the employees of the Institute of Southern Punjab, Multan, Pakistan. The study was based on a correlational research design. 128 employees were sampled through a simple random sampling technique. Data was collected by survey method through Perceived Organizational Support Scale (POSS) by Eisenberger, Huntington, Hutchison, and Sowa (1986) and Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (Mowday, Steers, & Porter, 1979). Demographic variable job experience was measured as moderating variables between perceived organizational support and organizational commitment. The collected data was analyzed through Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS 23). Correlation, regression, and moderation analysis were used to interpret data statistically. The results revealed a significant correlation between perceived organizational support and organizational commitment. The regression analysis indicated a significant impact of perceived organizational support on organizational commitment. The findings suggest a significant role of moderators (job experience) between organizational support and organizational commitment. Further study in organizational psychology would be recommended in the development of an encouraging and supportive workplace environment for employees.

The purpose of the study was to analyze nurses' perceptions of the benefits of training and development, as well as their commitment to the organization. Training and development and three facets of organizational commitment are studied using a quantitative survey research design. Structured equation modelling using Smart PLS 3 was used to analyze 290 of 313 responses from public sector hospitals. Training and development, according to the findings, have a strong positive relationship with affective, normative, and continuance commitment. Some of these findings have ramifications for management and administrative staff of hospitals. They must first commit their nursing staff to the hospital in order to ensure the best quality services for their patients. Nurses respond with greater affective, normative, and continuance commitment when they believe a training programmed is designed to meet their professional developmental needs.

Technology has transformed the banking industry. The banking sector has adopted digital ways to provide the best service to consumers to increase loyalty. The current study examines the influence of e-banking mobile application quality factors comprising reliability, application design, and trust on consumers' e-loyalty in Pakistan's private banking sector. Furthermore, the mediating role of e-satisfaction examined between the relationship of e-banking mobile application's quality factors and consumers' e-loyalty. The data were collected through 218 consumers of private banks in Pakistan using convenience sampling. The questionnaire was adopted through literature. The statistical tool Smart PLS 3.2.8 has been utilized to do partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). The reliability and trust have significantly influenced e-loyalty in findings, while mobile application design reveals an insignificant effect on e-loyalty. The study contributed to the existing literature on e-banking by using cognitive-motivational-relational theory through mediating role of e-satisfaction. The present research anticipated offering guidelines to improve customer satisfaction and consumer loyalty in developing countries' private banking sectors.

Tense competitions have always been the case in the banking industry. Its very customer-oriented nature explains the need to recognize the importance of customers with respect to growth and success, and so the battle to recruit new and retain existing customers are inevitable. Related competitiveness in such area has been highly linked to effective Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems implementation that can provide the necessary business knowledge and intelligence. This paper seeks to evaluate the preparedness and the extent Omani retail banks are incorporating CRM as a business knowledge and intelligence management tool to assist in their customer recruitment and retention activities. This study uses a quantifiable methodology with MS Excel data analytic tool to analyse primary data to determine the extent to which CRM systems are being incorporated as a business knowledge and intelligence management tool in the banking industry. Data were collected across departments from 5 of the 7 Omani retail banks with average ratings used for each question. The findings show that CRM as business intelligence management tool is already well incorporated in banks of Oman and the banks are also well equipped to further embrace such tools to strengthen their customer recruitment and retention capabilities. The findings also show that the banks have the necessary Information Technology capabilities, Customer Service capabilities and marketing capabilities which have assisted them to deliver higher quality customer services, run more effective marketing and promoting campaigns, and enhance their management decision making. The findings should assist decision-makers in realizing the importance of CRM with appropriate kind of functionalities as a business intelligence tool to optimize customer recruitment and retention activities.

The COVID outbreak has frazzled many employers to research how to upkeep and boost the performance outcomes continuously. It is even trickier in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) when they have hibernated from conventional to cyber universities due to the COVID pandemic. It is relatable to motivate and retain the knowledge workers persistently. Therefore, this study is designed to investigate the impact of academicians' spiritual motivation on their tacit knowledge sharing behaviour, with the moderation of COVID-induced occupational stress. The population embraced the academicians of Pakistani Higher Education Institutions. ~289 academicians were considered as the sample size. Descriptive and inferential statistics (linear regression) were performed in SPSS, whereas; 'Hayes' process macro' was used to test moderation. The findings designate that academicians' spiritual motivation is significantly and positively associated with tacit knowledge sharing behaviour—moreover, COVID-induced occupational stress moderates their relationship. Consequently, the results bequeath the policymakers and the relevant authorities of HEIs, with valuable propositions on how to upkeep academicians' tacit knowledge sharing behaviour by considering COVID-induced occupational stress as eu-stress if they are spiritually motivated. Profuse suggestions were also presented to future researchers to further look into the anticipated study model.

The purpose of this study is two-folded: first, to explore the organizational commitment specifically focusing on where is employees’ commitment; towards the organization or towards their jobs? Secondly, their experiences are analyzed under the situation when their skills are not appreciated by their boss to whom they perceive as incompetent. There are six in-depth interviews were conducted of employees working in private organizations in Lahore Pakistan. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis is used to analyze transcriptions, and data analysis is performed in Nvivo 11. The finding of this study has drawn the following themes: emotions/feelings, actions, and coping strategies that are linked with social exchange theory. The social exchange process propagates the individual's emotions are aligned with norms and values of the organization, and the nature of this association engages employees with an organization on moral grounds, and this association prolongs when in return organizations treat their employees fairly. Lastly, the themes are also connected with the survival perspective because most of the coping strategies are reflecting how employees are adapting their practices according to the stressful situation, and how they are building their capacity to transform themselves according to the situation.

This research focused on the influence of liquidity management on the functioning of fifteen listed firms of Textile Sector at Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSE) for five years, from 2015 to 2019. The secondary data was gathered from the annual reports of the selected companies. For data analysis, regression analysis, descriptive statistics, and correlation are used. The study showed that the current ratio and creditor payment period have a significant negative effect on the return on assets (ROA) of the selected firms.
