Building A Better Workplace With Employee Engagement
(2014)
Nagarathanam, Jivaranee
Employee engagement is a vast construct that touches almost all parts of human resource management facets we know. If every part of human resources is not addressed in appropriate manner, employees fail to fully engage themselves in their job response to such kind of mismanagement. The construct employee engagement is built on the foundation of earlier concepts like job satisfaction, employee commitment and organizational citizenship behavior. Employee engagement is stronger predictor of positive organizational performance clearly showing the two-way relationship between employer and employee. Although there is a growing body of literature investigating employee engagement, scholars have noted that academic research lags behind practitioner developments. This is particularly notable with respect to the role of immediate supervisor. The novel of the study would be to introduce the supervisory support has the moderating effects on employee engagement. Employee engagement is a deep and broad connection that employees have with a company that results in a willingness to go above and beyond what's expected of them to help their company succeed.
National Culture And Corporate Social Responsibility: A Case Of Saudi Aramco
(2025-07)
Mofadhi M., Alanazi Salem
This research explores how national culture changes influence corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices over time in Saudi Arabia. While academic research on CSR has developed considerably, most of this research has been undertaken in developed countries, and the topic remains under researched in the Middle East, particularly in Saudi Arabia. A few studies were carried out in the country to investigate CSR, and its relationship with national culture. However, the contributing factors to CSR, and how its practices might be related to major changes in local culture are overlooked, especially in the context of Saudi Arabia, an economically powerful, originally oil-based economy, transforming rapidly into one that is more diversified, and less dependent on oil.

Effect Of Macroeconomic Fundamentals, Sentiment And Housing Finance On House Prices In Ghana, Kenya, Namibia, And South Africa
(2024-11)
Benjamin, Kwakye
The role of housing in the development of economies has been increasingly recognized. However, there has been limited attention from scholars and policymakers, particularly in sub-saharan africa regarding the interaction of house prices with the macroeconomy and the financial markets. This thesis investigates the impact of macroeconomic fundamentals, market sentiment, and housing finance on house prices in ghana, kenya, namibia, and south africa using the ardl model with quarterly data from 1999 to 2020. This research is essential, especially in an era where policymakers are facing challenges of house price fluctuations that hinder affordability. The study reveals that macroeconomic fundamentals are cointegrated with house prices in all countries. Additionally, these fundamentals (real gdp, cpi, exchange rate, and population) significantly affected house prices in the selected countries, both in the long and short term. Similarly, the sentiment index was cointegrated with house prices in all countries and had a statistically significant effect on house prices in south africa and ghana in the long term and only in south africa in the short term. In kenya and namibia, sentiment had no influence on house prices in both the short and long term. Furthermore, the research shows that housing finance factors (interest rate, disposable income, and mortgage debt-to-gdp) were strongly glued with house prices in ghana, kenya, namibia, and south africa. The statistical significance of financing variables varies from one country to the other.
