The objective of this article is to highlight the reality of unorthodox commercial practices in markets, by local vendors of the informal sector in Africa. An in-depth analysis of a sample of twenty-four (24) petty traders reveals that these traders use both common sense, by developing proximity to their market, and the mystical dimension of their cultural era, to achieve their commercial performance objectives. In so doing, they perceive this mystical dimension as being effective in attracting customers, building customer loyalty and making their business more competitive.

During the pandemic of 2020, Gojek Indonesia established a non-profit organization named Yayasan Anak Bangsa Bisa that aims to distribute aid and support to the stakeholders affected by the pandemic. This research seeks to discover if any influence is caused by implementing Gojek Indonesia’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) on corporate image. The theories used in this research are the CSR Dimension Pyramid as the independent variable and Elements of Corporate Image as the dependent variable. The method used is descriptive quantitative, with a questionnaire as the chosen data collection method. This research concluded that there is a 40,2% positive influence between CSR implementation and Gojek Indonesia’s corporate image. Though the result is positive, Gojek Indonesia’s actions have not yet exceeded the public’s expectations. Gojek Indonesia’s overall corporate image is a trusted, innovative, and unique company. However, the corporate identity element, specifically the slogan ‘Pasti Ada Jalan,’ is still unfamiliar to the public. Thus, this research recommends that the following study consider the actions taken based on the existing corporate image and an interview with Gojek Indonesia’s team as an additional data collection method. A more practical recommendation is for Gojek Indonesia’s team to conduct social listening to observe the public’s expectations of CSR actions and add the slogan ‘Pasti Ada Jalan’ to their application and services layout.
在 2020 年大流行病期间,印度尼西亚 Gojek 公司成立了一个名为 Yayasan Anak Bangsa Bisa 的非营利组织,旨在向受大流行病影响的利益相关者提供援助和支持。本研究旨在探究印尼 Gojek 公司履行企业社会责任(CSR)是否会对企业形象产生影响。本研究使用的理论是企业社会责任维度金字塔(CSR Dimension Pyramid)作为自变量,企业形象要素(Elements of Corporate Image)作为因变量。使用的方法是描述性定量分析,选择的数据收集方法是问卷调查。本研究得出结论,企业社会责任的实施与印度尼西亚 Gojek 公司的企业形象之间存在 40.2% 的正向影响。虽然结果是积极的,但印尼 Gojek 公司的行动尚未超出公众的预期。印度尼西亚 Gojek 公司的整体企业形象是一家值得信赖、创新和独特的公司。然而,企业形象元素,特别是口号 "Pasti Ada Jalan",对公众来说仍然很陌生。因此,本研究建议后续研究考虑基于现有企业形象所采取的行动,并将对印尼 Gojek 公司团队的访谈作为额外的数据收集方法。一个更实际的建议是,印尼 Gojek 公司团队进行社会倾听,观察公众对企业社会责任行动的期望,并将 "Pasti Ada Jalan "口号添加到其应用程序和服务布局中。

In the context of Nigeria, where the average lifespan of businesses is limited to approximately five years, addressing and overcoming challenges has become a critical imperative. This study underscores the pivotal role of business diagnostics in supporting the growth and sustainability of businesses, particularly Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), in Nigeria. Specifically, it investigates how SMEs in Nigeria employ diagnostic tools, such as SWOT analysis, to discern their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Utilizing a qualitative research methodology, the study employs a structured, open-ended questionnaire as the primary data collection instrument, with a sample of fifteen strategically chosen SMEs participating in a specialized course at a business school. Purposive sampling ensures diversity among the selected SMEs, enriching the depth of the collected data. The structured, open-ended questionnaire allows participants to express their perspectives, facilitating in-depth responses freely. Thematic analysis is applied to identify patterns and insights within the qualitative data, providing nuanced answers to the research questions. The findings underscore that business diagnostics significantly contribute to the effective management and growth of SMEs in Nigeria, illuminating the potential for increased economic development through improved SME performance. Incorporating the results, the study sheds light on the varied experiences and perspectives of SMEs with business diagnostics, offering a rich and contextualized exploration of the subject matter. Meaningful recommendations derived from the study's findings, contribute to the body of knowledge on effective business diagnostics for SMEs in Nigeria.

Western Macedonia, a region nestled in the northwestern part of Greece, has long been renowned for its rich natural resources, particularly its abundant coal reserves. Τhe imperative to transition away from coal-related industries has brought to light the need for economic diversification. Western Macedonia's heavy dependence on coal mining and energy production has left it vulnerable to the inevitable decline of fossil fuels (Ziouzios, Karlopoulos, Fragkos, Vrontitsi, 2021). To secure its future and ensure the well-being of its residents, the region must identify and develop new economic sectors that align with a sustainable, low-carbon future. However, as the global shift towards sustainable energy production gains momentum -and as the climate crisis shows its harsh face-, Western Macedonia has found itself facing a myriad of challenges that have constrained the initiation of a Just Transition process in regions that were dependent on lignite (Vatalis, Avlogiaris, Tsalis 2022). The transition seeks to address critical issues, such as staggering unemployment rates, the significant brain drain of the region, and the need to diversify its economy away from coal-dependent industries.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a substantial impact on the global wine industry, leading to dramatic changes in consumer behavior as well. Although the pandemic has significantly impeded the global economy, international trade, and social development, it has given an impetus to the process of digitalization, digital market has been growing prosperity, especially in China, a country as the bellwether in digitalization. The China wine market is one of the most potential markets in the world, Per capita expenditure of wine in China has increased quite significantly after 2021, compared to the Asia Pacific and global levels. Therefore, understanding how the changes in the Chinese wine consumer occurred after the pandemic will help wineries better enter the Chinese market and develop a digital marketing strategy. After the United Nations proposed the 17 Sustainable Development Goals in 2015, sustainability has become a primary theme of the world's concern. Therefore, the wine industry has also regarded sustainability as its primary goal. Digital transformation is an inevitable trend that foreign wineries have to face, which is also in conformity with the SDG targets. This paper aims to provide an in-depth understanding of the wine consumer behaviors’ existing circumstances after the pandemic through an exhaustive descriptive analysis, which helps foreign wineries lay down a new business strategy and realize digital transformation in the Chinese wine market.

There need to be more studies on how corporate social responsibility (CSR) affects personnel and Organizational Commitment (OC), even though many academics have examined the effects of CSR in various organizational situations. This study explores the relationship between hospital staff members' perceptions of CSR and OC in light of this research gap. The problem is addressed by this quantitative correlational study, which uses the social identity theory (SIT) as its conceptual framework. According to the theory, workers with higher CSR ratings will also have higher OC scores. The independent variables cover Four CSR dimensions: CSR toward consumers, CSR toward workers, and CSR toward the government. The community is the target of CSR. OC is the dependent variable. Hospitals in Pakistan were the source of research participants. The data analysis phase demonstrated a statistically significant positive association between hospital employees' views of OC and CSR. To detect any patterns or distinctions in how workers see CSR and its influence on OC, future research may want to replicate this survey with staff members from various departments and compare the results.

Job satisfaction among the teachers has been found as a fundamental element influencing the performance of the organisation. The purpose of this study was to examine the Job satisfaction among private and public college/campus teachers of Madhesh Pradesh in Nepal. The current research work is based on Herzberg’s Two Factor Theory of Motivation and Job satisfaction. The variables included in the study are independent variables of intrinsic factors i.e., Job Itself, Promotion & recognition and extrinsic factors i.e., Colleagues, Pay &benefits, Students and Physical environment with Job satisfaction as a dependent variable. A descriptive and analytical research design using questionnaire method on 5-point Likert scale was used to collect and analyse the data. The study was conducted with the sample size of 250 teachers teaching in private/public campuses of Madhesh Pradesh in Nepal. The data were analysed through the use of descriptive statistics, correlation, multiple regression analysis and t-test using SPSS software. The results of the study infer that both the extrinsic and intrinsic factors are important in determining the job satisfaction level of teachers working in higher education sector of Madhesh Pradesh in Nepal. Few of the extrinsic factors like only pay & benefits and physical environment are not found to have the significant influence on job satisfaction level of teachers.
