The global supply chain is facing risks and challenges that disrupt the supply chain and negatively affect performance. The high-quality cooperation between supply chain members is a useful solution to help limit risks and improve its performance. This study was conducted to demonstrate the relationship between collaboration, supply chain risk, and supply chain performance of organic agricultural products in Vietnam. Research data were collected from 162 enterprises producing organic agricultural products. Applying the structural equation modeling (SEM), the study has shown that supply chain risks negatively affect the supply chain performance of organic agricultural products. The close cooperation between members of the supply chain limits supply chain risks, thereby improving the efficiency of the supply chain of Vietnamese organic agricultural products.

The research was conducted with 300 seafood producers in the North Central Region, Vietnam. The study results show that trust, distance, strategies, policies, power, and maturity have a direct impact on the collaboration in the fishery supply chain.

In the domain of international construction projects, managing supply chains presents distinct challenges due to the intricate task of coordinating multiple stakeholders within diverse cultural, economic, and regulatory contexts. Prior research highlights the significance of incentive mechanisms and collaborative procurement practices, yet the effectiveness of these strategies in augmenting performance for international projects has not been extensively examined. This investigation explores the effects of financial and non-financial incentives on the performance of global construction projects, with a focus on the mediating role of cooperation. Data were gathered from Chinese international contractors and local suppliers and subsequently analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling. The results reveal two separate pathways of influence. Firstly, financial incentives exhibited substantial direct and indirect impacts on project performance; secondly, while non-financial incentives did not directly affect project performance, they significantly impacted cooperation levels, which in turn mediated the relationship between non-financial incentives and project performance. This study provides essential perspectives for managing international construction projects, emphasizing the critical need for the combined application of financial and non-financial incentives to foster cooperation and ultimately achieve superior project outcomes.

Smart PLS 4 software was used for the data analysis, and statistical measures were used to analyze the correlations between variables. The findings show that data mining approaches have a substantial positive relationship with improving decision-making and information exchange within external and internal contexts. The study also demonstrates that cooperation plays an important moderating role in these interactions, emphasizing the significance of building a cooperative atmosphere to improve the influence of data mining methods on decision-making and information sharing. The study's conclusions have practical relevance for organizations in the industrial sector. Organizations may improve their decision-making processes and information sharing by adopting data mining tools and boosting collaboration, enhancing performance and competitiveness.

The study aims to explore the impact of internal social capital banking on the operations of commercial banks in Vietnam. The study is executed in two phases. Phase 1 uses the expert method to build scales and design survey questions. In phase two, scale test and structural equation model analysis (SEM) are performed with a sample of 243 questionnaires for directors and deputy directors of branches of 32 commercial banks in Ho Chi Minh City. It also analyzes the contribution of the structure of the relational network within the bank and the quality of the relational network. The research results show that internal banking social capital affects all three operations; namely mobilization, lending and service provision of the banks. Based on the research results, the study proposes an analytical framework to improve the quality of internal banking relationships.

Collaboration can be a very challenging process precisely because it is a highly intense way of working, requiring new ways of thinking, behavior and ways of operating. Cultural Intelligence (CI) is an antecedent for collaboration . The primary goal of this survey is to investigate the relationship between cultural intelligence of managers and their employees’ collaboration. This research is a descriptive-correlation study where 119 managers and 175 employees are selected by stratified random sampling from the Social Security organization managers and their workers. To measure cultural intelligence, the Iranian version of the cultural intelligence questionnaire is implemented and collaboration is measured using a questionnaire developed by the researcher. The Cronbach & apos; s alpha reliability coefficient respectively for cultural intelligence and collaboration questionnaires are 0.933 and 0.813, respectively, which are well above the minimum acceptable limit. Data collected using SPSS 19 and they are analyzed using LISREL 8.54 software packages. The results indicate a significant and positive relationship between cultural intelligence among managers and their employees’ collaboration. As the relationship between motivational and behavioral CI dimensions and collaboration is also determined to be positive and significant. Based on demographic factors such as gender, age and education we cannot comment on the cultural intelligence of managers and employee’s collaboration but having inter-cultural experiences has had a positive impact on the cultural intelligence of managers. Based on the findings obtained we can say that Cultural Intelligence is a key factor, influencing and determining for collaboration.

Organizational relationship plays an important role in developing more cooperation among members of employees. Today, there is no doubt that people are mostly considered as the primary source of creating value added activities. Therefore, it is important to learn more about organizational relationship in different organizations and detect possible barriers on developing such relationships. In this paper, we present an empirical study to detect the status of organizational relationship in Sport organization of province of Esfahan, Iran. The proposed study designs a questionnaire consists of five parts including informative, freedom, one-side relationship, formality and openness. All questions were designed in Likert scale from one to five and Cronbach alpha was calculated as 0.94. The results of the study shows organizational relationship is in good position in average and all different cities of Iran.

Suggestions system is one of the new cooperative management plans, which affects making good decisions, self-confidence and employees occupational approval. The aim of this research is to survey the barriers for establishment of suggestion system. The proposed study designs and distributes a questionnaire among 195 out of 26550 managers who work for educational system in city of Kermanshah, Iran. The primary purpose of this survey is to learn whether lack of accepting any risk on behalf of management team, conflict of interest in management style, lack of belief on suggestions system in an organization are important barriers of executing suggestions system in an organization or not. The results of Freedman test confirm all seven components of the hypothesis. As a result, lack of accepting risk among management team is number one barrier in having suggestion system followed by existing conflict between management style and suggestions system and lack of management & apos; s belief to suggestions system, weakness in education for suggestions system and fear in management disruption because of having suggestions system. The other barriers coming in the last priority in terms of their relative importance include lack of management & apos; s support to suggestions system and weakness in management position because of accepting suggestions system.

Today, there is no doubt that parents can significantly improve educational level by their cooperation in schools. Parents are capable of executing different value-added activities and share their knowledge and experiences with school officials. In this survey, we performed an empirical survey in three provinces of Iran from economically rich to poor. We have chosen 450 committees out of 150 schools. In each province, we have selected 50 schools in different levels from elementary to high school. In our survey, there were 311 people who non-committee, 187 were principals, 738 were members of different committees, 28 were responsible and 25 were from other specialist people. In summary, there were about 1289 participants in this survey. The results of our survey indicate that parents can substantially contribute to schools to increase their capabilities through sharing their knowledge and expertise. However, according to experts, school officials do not strongly believe that the presence of parents can solve any problem and they mostly disagree to share their duties with parents.
