All countries in South Eastern Europe (SEE), in particular countries\r\nemerged from ex-Yugoslavia, are going through the transition process for\r\nmany years. Switching from one economy to another, from closed and\r\ncentralized to open and free market economy, has forced many companies to\r\nchange their working and operating culture, especially the communication\r\nculture within human resource management (HRM). Hence, the entire\r\neconomy has started to learn new rules of the global market, new working\r\nculture, and they needed to understand, launch and to execute them,\r\nespecially undeveloped countries such as Kosovo. Having this in mind, not\r\nonly the organizations needed to change, but the most important was that\r\nindividuals within those countries needed to change their working and\r\ncommunication culture. According to the conception of staff management,\r\nhuman resource management (HRM) needs well-organized, competent, and\r\nefficient use of human resources, which in Kosovo were on hand. In order to\r\nensure this, various activities focused towards the area of HRM. Some of the\r\nmajor activities that were undertaken, and still needs to be improved are\r\nrecruitment of employees who possess new skills (such as language,\r\neducation, etc.), development of skills missing within the market and which\r\nare crucial to survive in the new open market, strengthening of relations and\r\ncreating a new one, mutual inspiring, developing new communication culture\r\nwithin the organization, implementation of contemporary working processes\r\nand developing systems that can be used by individuals or groups to face the\r\nnew requirements emerged bay new economic developments....
The resistance to Information technology and communication (ICT) usage is a well-known\r\nmatter in healthcare area. This study proposes a model that explains the intention of ICT\r\nappropriation by physicians and nurses who are involved in the process of care. A survey\r\nwas conducted in public healthcare centers in Agadir city, located in south of Morocco, to\r\nexamine the proposed model and to confirm factors that affect positively this intention.\r\nDecision makers in healthcare organizations and CIO should consider the importance of\r\nthese factors to boost the intention of practitioners to use and adopt HIS systems....
This paper concentrates on the negative office politics and negative ââ?¬Ë?office\r\nââ?¬Ë?politiciansââ?¬â?¢ by simply identifying their divisive effect in context with the implementation\r\nand management of the job evaluation programme within organisations along with the\r\ndifficulties that this can cause both the programmeââ?¬â?¢s committee or management and the\r\nemployees whose jobs are to be evaluated. It does this by way of example and not because\r\nthe former (office politics) is considered an exclusive phenomenon of the latter (job\r\nevaluation).\r\nFrom here this paper traces the sources of power for those office ââ?¬Ë?politiciansââ?¬â?¢.\r\nSimultaneously it suggests counter-measures (prophylactic and remedial) by which both the\r\nharm caused by and the virulent effect that can result from such unhealthy office politics in\r\nrelation to the job evaluation programme can be inhibited or marginalized. The purpose and\r\nconsequence of these counter-measures are to fortify the programmeââ?¬â?¢s processes and\r\noutcomes against the office political ploys and tactics.\r\nOur experience of teaching this discipline for more than two decades with a further\r\ndecade in education and the business sector is the backbone upon which this work is\r\nestablished....
The environment wherein the business organizations currently\r\noperate is increasingly becoming more competitive and the need to face a\r\nmultitude of challenges arises. Adoption to this environment is conditioned\r\nupon finding and using the most analytical efficient forms of managing a\r\nbusiness via the use of decision-making analytical methods. The qualitative\r\ndecision-making highlights the necessity of the scientific and technical\r\ncapabilities and skills, as well as the creative ideas present in the business\r\nenvironment, in order to provide a sustainable development. The focus of\r\nthis paper is the aim to consider from the theoretical and practical\r\nprospective, the interrelations existing between the decision-making methods\r\nused in business and the respective business performance. In this framework,\r\nthe article entitled: ââ?¬Å?The impact of the decision-making method in business\r\nachievementsââ?¬Â poses besides one-another the impacts of the two methods\r\nused in the decision-making process. Initially, an overview is made,\r\nconsidering the dimensions of this paper, on some basic concepts of the\r\ndecision-making theory. Thereafter the theoretical approach, the current\r\ndecision-making situation and conditioning factors are being is analyzed.\r\nThe hypothesis is of a simple character, due to the small number of\r\nindependent variables. The research method is based upon on the ground\r\nsurveying and the instrument used is face to face interviewing. The aggregate\r\ndata is analyzed via the non-parametric, statistical analysis, such as the\r\nAssociation Coefficients, Pearson(C) Coefficient, Cuprov(T) Coefficient,\r\nKendall Coefficient. The findings are indispensable as they highlight the\r\nnecessity of considerable support with efficient programs the human\r\nresources development of the decision-making structures....
