Our conventional wisdom indicates that because of their spread-out nature, performance networks for large projects are bound to experience perfect power diffusion where no one player is likely to gain hegemony over others. We might be wrong about that. It is possible that oligarchic network positioning and influence may emerge (Ansell, Bicher, Zhou, 2016) as political considerations and dominate the more traditional bureaucratic ones. These are applicable for decisions that involve an allocation of resources, adoption of technology, design of control systems, and methods of project appraisal (among others). While considerations for these seem to be dedicated to the limited set, there is a large shortage of work on the application of power in the larger context of networks and very large initiatives (VLI) that may be found in customs, trade, economic, and political unions. This can also be found in any political integration or economic integration projects, for example in the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI). The contention is that exchanges of power in formal regulated structures may be predictable, it is the informal and unregulated condition that influence performance of integration. This paper focuses on the structures for minority control and suggests these strategies to influence a network come from the influence of nodes and edges of the network, and not from top down control.

Financial inclusion is delivery of banking services at a cheaper cost to the vast sections of under privileged and low income groups. An inclusive financial system can help in reducing the growth of informal sources of credit such as money lenders, which are often found to be exploitative. The performance of the Indian economy is one of the strongest drivers for the banking industry’s growth and vice versa. This represents a massive opening that financial institutions in the country can leverage upon for future growth. Keyword: Financial inclusion, Financial institution, Informal source of credit. Introduction Financial inclusion is the availability of banking services at an affordable cost to the disadvantaged and low income groups. In India, the basic concept of financial inclusion is having a saving or current account at any bank. In reality, it includes loans, insurance services and much more, for all members of an economy. An inclusive financial system has several merits. It facilitates efficient allocation of productive resources and thus can potentially reduce the cost of capital. In addition, access to appropriate financial services can significantly improve the day to day management of finance. Methods and Materials A systematic search was conducted to understand the broad issues on the role and challenges of Rural Banks in the financial inclusive growth of India. Important reports and articles were used for reference.

Tacit knowledge is the key to business continuity and retaining core knowledge during organizational change. Corporations have recognized its importance and implemented knowledge management strategies to ensure valuable knowledge is preserved. While much of the academic research has looked into the nature of tacit knowledge, the role of social networks in maintaining tacit knowledge has been largely unexplored. The following paper seeks to link existing tacit knowledge theory with social network theory through theoretical analysis and literature review. First, social networks are more important when tacit knowledge cannot be codified and when the nature of that knowledge is process-based. Second, while the strength of relationships tends to increase the effectiveness of tacit knowledge transfer, weaker relationships tend to dominate the actual transfer of knowledge. Third, asymmetry in relationships tends to decrease effectiveness of tacit knowledge transfer. The purpose of the paper is to explore when social networks matter more for tacit knowledge communications and what types of social networks are most effective at transmitting tacit knowledge.

Personal and Work-related stress are considered an integral part of one’s life in our contemporary times. Stress has been defined in several ways, but most scholars on the subject are of the opinion that stress is caused by a stimulus that can be either psychological or physical. The concept of stress can be viewed as a mental and physical condition that occurs when individuals adjust or change to cope with a threatening environment. This review of the literature on the subject focuses on the relationship between personal and work-related stress, and how it could be reduced so that employee’s health will not be compromised and, if managed properly, could lead to happy and productive workers. Furthermore, this review focuses on the nature of stress, both individual and organizational causes, as well as finally strategies for dealing with stress.
