Introduction
Firms that do not have the quality human resource face challenges in managing its operations globally and in attracting quality human resource (Farndale, Scullion, and Sparrow, 2010). Therefore it is critical for firms to manage their human resource. For this reason, the practices of human resource management are decisive in the success of the organization. As firms expand their operations to different countries, organizations have to consider a lot more factors than they have to when they are managing an organization that operates in only one country (Adler, 2002).

One of the worst problems facing accounting students today is the problem of plagiarism that is a major concern not only in the business field but to all academic fields.

In the first week we learnt about HTTP refers to Hyper Text Transfer Protocol, a term that I had heard about many instances before the first lecture. It is used in telecommunications and networks, and it made me interested in the topic since it was applicable to the internet and websites, and I had used it when browsing the internet although I did not understand its applications fully. It was exciting to learn about the previous version of HTTP (version 1.0) and the newer version that is currently in use, HTTP 1.1. The current version of HTTP is a faster upgrade ...

Employment tribunals have come a long way since their inception, not only in scope but also in philosophy. The idea that they should hear claims in an atmosphere far removed from the courtroom, accessibly, informally, speedily, and cheaply, no longer pertains as much as it once did.

The study further recommends reforms for improving employment tribunals. The study traces the growth and change of employment tribunals in UK for the past five decades. These ...

Results and Literature Review

Slavec & Prodan (2012) found out that the strength of an entrepreneur’s social links is a significant factor in financing choice.

Introduction

Recently, the role of a managerial accountant is widely discussed in the scholars. Johnson and Kaplan (1991) argue that management accounting is “too late, too aggregated, and too distorted to be relevant for managers’ planning and control decisions” (1). Haedr (2012) considered the mediation effect of management accounting information on motivation using contingency theory stating that “MAI usefulness accounts for a full (i.e. complete) mediation effect only on the relationship between centralization and MCS effectiveness.” (n.p.). As the number of views cannot present a unified opinion on the matter, the purpose of the current paper to reveal whether the functions of the ...

Competitive advantage is the ability of a firm that it develops in relation to its competitors that allows it to outperform them (Peteraf, 1993). If a firm can outperform competitors consistently, then it is called sustainable competitive advantage (Rodrigues and Dorrego, 2008). For example, Apple created groundbreaking products like iPhone, MacBook and iPad better in quality and features than others and its continued success and the never declining popularity of its products provides the company with a competitive advantage over its competitors. Sustainable competitive advantage cannot be developed overnight; rather it is built slowly over a period of time based upon unique competencies. ...

In situations in which the demand for healthcare services exceeds the number of physicians available, nurse prescribing is normally recommended.

It is said that in this world, change is the only permanent thing. Indeed, changes in the nursing profession and health care industry are inevitable as a result of external and internal catalysts. Policy reforms occur because of social, economic and political pressures. Knowledge is created every day, technology evolves at a fast pace, and consumer demands change. Organisations must respond effectively by modifying their strategic goals, structures, systems, processes, and culture (Anderson & Ackerman-Anderson, 2001). As a result, the professional roles of nurses expand, clinical practices improve, the work environment benefits from redesign, and patients receive better care. For this reason, change ...

In the article “Music for their Minds,” Shore and Strasser (2006) offer the primary point that music should be incorporated into early childhood education, with several supporting points to back up this assertion. In this paper, we will examine those points, reflect on their validity, and hear perspectives from other authorities in the realm of childhood education. Shore’s and Strasser’s suggestion is completely sound; the integration of music (particularly complex music) into the education of young children helps their cognitive abilities and their aptitude at mathematics and music.

International relations experience radical changes in how security is conceptualized. Traditional studies of inter-state relations typically define security in military 1 and determinism 2 or fear and conflict 3. However, in light of recent international developments, particularly in a post-Cold War era, non-state actors are increasingly viewed as fundamental in international relations not only between but also within states 4. The case for security is lent further urgency, moreover, due to an increasing privatization of military skills in an international market of corporate warfighting 5. This is not to mention notable gaps in women's roles during war – gaps which highlight ...

In advanced nursing, acute care of pregnant women is an important part. The challenge that is common in this field of nursing is that the nurse must consider the wellbeing of the developing fetus in addition to that of the mother before taking any interventions. One of the first cases I handled was that of Mr. & Mrs. Peterson. I met Mrs. Jessica Peterson, 31 while she was 4 months pregnant after she was diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus.

Abstract

Human development is an area that has been one of the most discussed areas of study in the last one century. Cognitive development of a person from childhood days to adult years was studied extensively by a Swedish psychologist Jean Piaget. He is known as the father of cognitive development theories. His four stages of cognitive development, sensori-motor, pre-operational, concrete, and formal, are still considered to be the foundation of the cognitive development process. Piaget’s theory does not touch upon why individuals develop at a different rate or why there are different developmental stages. Vygotsky, on the other hand, proposed a completely ...

Unlike chemicals, there are no two people who can be considered to be the same; not the so called identical twins because when subjected to similar stimuli, they respond quite differently. This forms the basis of personality and individual differences in psychology, which looks into responses of people in similar situations under the introduction of a state or ...
