This study aims to examine the effect of relationship value and test the moderating effect of relationship age on performance in a manufacturer-retailer relationship. Relationship value is identified from four dimensions – personal, financial, knowledge, and strategic value, each of which is indicated in different outcomes. This research presents a new taxonomy that can be used for manufacturers from retailers' perceptions of what counts as relationship value. Furthermore, this study explores the effect of relationship age on the relationship value and performance. Data were collected from 259 retailers from paint and chemical stores in Indonesia, through a structured questionnaire, and collected quantitative data were analyzed through structural equation modeling (SEM). The analysis of the sample suggests a positive relation-ship between relationship value and performance. This research shows the impact of relation-ship age into a short-term and long-term relationship. Relationship age did not strengthen the positive relationship between relationship value and performance. Findings suggest that manufacturers should invest more time and effort in relationship value drivers with their key retailers to enhance their relationships with those retailers.

Since consumer’s needs, wants, and preferences establish a cornerstone for developing new products, this research aims to determine the effect of hedonic shopping motivations of Jordanian youth’s fashion leadership behavior through a social psychology approach. Based on the diffusion and human motivations theories, six hedonic shopping motivations have been examined: (1) value shopping motivations; (2) gratification shopping motivations; (3) idea shopping motivations; (4) adventure shopping motivations; (5) social shopping motivations; and (6) role shopping motivations. A self-administered questionnaire has been developed to collect data from the research sample comprising 500 students from four private universities in Amman. Results showed that fashion leadership behavior is significantly related only to four hedonic shopping motivations: value shopping motivations, idea shopping motivations, social shopping motivations; and role shopping motivations, whereas gratification and adventure shopping motivations were found to not have a significant impact on leadership behavior. Research recommendations and future research were also discussed.

This research aims to investigate the impact of school efficiency on student development and sheds light on the way that top-universities enhance students’ knowledge, skills, health, and psychological development. Through interviewing and sending online questionnaires to over 2000 students from 5 top universities in Vietnam based on Ranking Web of Universities, the research results suggest the significant influence of school-related factors, student demographic factors, and students’ personality on student development. Specifically, teaching quality has a positive relationship with all dependent variables except for psychosocial development. The results also illustrate that school facilities positively relate to students’ satisfaction but negatively associate with their academic performance. Additionally, the research points out that boys have better psychological, mental, and physical development than girls do. At the same time, students with lower schoolyear tend to have a higher level of studying satisfaction. Furthermore, the impact of personality, including openness, conscientiousness, and extraversion, on student development is remarkable due to their significant positive connections with all five dependent variables. On the other hand, agreeable students appear to have less psychological development than those in other personality groups.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of transformational leadership on employee performance via job satisfaction in telecommunication sector, Jordan. Self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data from 278 employees. Structural equation modeling (SEM) via The Analysis of Moment Structures, i.e., IBM AMOS 22 was applied to test hypotheses. The findings show that transformational leadership was significantly and positively associated with both job satisfaction and employee performance. Furthermore, job satisfaction had a significant relationship with employee performance. Consequently, the results underlined a significant mediation effect of job satisfaction in the interaction between transformational leadership and employee performance. This research provides empirical evidence of the interaction between transformational leadership, job satisfaction and employee performance in a key industry in a developing country, Jordan. Finally, this study was conducted in telecommunication sector in a developing country, Jordan, therefore, the results cannot be generalized across countries.

Employees being prolific in the workplace is equally essential to survive in the global job market. The study projected to identify various driving factors of employee creativity and proposed a theoretical model and further investigated the impact of independent variables on employee innovation. Using the survey questionnaire, primary data from 246 small and medium enterprises (SME) employees of Saudi Arabian organization was collected. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) underlined the identified determinants into six causal factors namely training and brainstorming session (TBS), employee recognition and reward (ERR), resources and fund allocation (RFA), employee competencies (EC), workplace environment (WE) and management support (MS). Subsequently, multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to examine the influence of these factors on employee innovation (EI). Findings showed the regression model was significant and explained 84.2% of the variance on the dependent variable. Also, all six constructs resulted significant positive relationships with EI. Results showed EC has the highest positive relation with EI. The study demonstrated a better working environment, collaboration, team spirit, work autonomy, and morale will reinforce creativity with the sup-port of management and allocation of resources and funds. Lack of these elements will ruin the work culture and thereby the workplace innovation. Though the results are presented from a small group and with no generalization, the study sheds light on many employees in creating a competitive edge and flourish with new opportunities by encountering uncertainties using new approaches at work. The findings are consistent and the study reconfirms the literature. The study also provides some indirect inferences to organizational human resource (HR) policymakers. Further, the limitations and future research scope were also well demonstrated.

This study aimed to determine the effect of overtime, job stress, and workload on turnover intention. This is a quantitative study with a sample collection method using a purposive sampling in PT. Ungaran Sari Garmen, Indonesia. Data collection was carried out by the method of observation, documentation, and questionnaires. The data obtained were then processed and analyzed with ordinary least square regression model. The results show that overtime, job stress, and workload significantly affected the turnover intention. Adjusted R2 value of this study was 0.776, which means overtime, job stress, and workload explained the turnover intention of 77.6%, and 22.4% was influenced by other variables.

Organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) has received a great deal of attention among researchers recently given the practical importance and its implication for the organizations. Building on a theoretical framework that links characteristics of leader and perception of individuals and their work settings to organizational commitment (OC) and citizenship behavior, the objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between spiritual leadership, job attitudes, and organizational citizenship behavior among lecturers at Islamic University. A cross-sectional design was used to meet the objectives set. Data were collected through the administration of questionnaires to 170 lecturers from Islamic University in Malang. Data were collected through 5 questionnaires in which participants completed measures of spiritual leadership, job satisfaction, organizational commitment, and OCBs. Results showed that one of the seven hypotheses proposed was rejected in this study. The results of structural equation modeling indicated a direct effect between spiritual leadership and OCB, and an indirect effect of organizational commitment on the relationship between spiritual leadership and job satisfaction toward OCB. The implications of these findings, as well as directions for future research, are addressed.
