Abstract:
In this study, it is aimed to examine the strategies for solving organizational conflict sources and problem foci in educational institutions. Conflicts that are effectively managed in other institutions, especially educational institutions, contribute to the development of the organization's mission and culture. There are always conflicts and differences of opinion in organizations. Because conflict is an integrative quality of change. Organizations in which there is no conflict are stationary organizations. Innovation, change and performance are low in these organizations. In organizations where there are constant and intense conflicts, failure to make decisions on time, inability to solve problems, staff demoralization and stress cause a negative impact on work efficiency. Even the increasingly violent conflicts that cannot be resolved endanger the existence of the organization. Reasonable level of conflict should be encouraged because it is necessary for the dynamism, productivity, innovation and development of the organization. Educational organizations are composed of different people with different motivations, programs, lifestyles, communication structures. For this reason, conflict is inevitable in schools, as in other organizations. Since conflict plays a recurring role in the lives of school administrators and teachers, individuals holding these positions should learn to manage conflict effectively and direct conflict to constructive results. Instead of accepting that the conflict that arises in their own organizations does not exist at all, school administrators should see it as a source of constructive and productive movement. Managers should not eliminate conflicts completely by suppressing them, nor should they ignore them and not allow conflicts to reach a level that will harm the organization. Managers should keep conflicts at a reasonable level by applying the most appropriate solution strategy or strategies after investigating the causes of conflicts. Thus, it should make conflicts suitable for the benefit of the organization. Managers should not be afraid of conflicts, on the contrary, they should be able to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the organization by taking advantage of conflicts.

Abstract:
One of most critical issues facing organizations today is how to retain employees they want to keep. The study examines the relationship dynamics between employees’ psychological career resources (measured by the Psychological Career Resources Inventory) and their organizational commitment foci (measured by the Organization-Related Commitment Scale). A quantitative survey is conducted involving a non-probability purposive sample of predominantly black females employed at managerial and staff levels (N = 318) in the field of industrial and organizational psychology. The findings provide valuable indicators for the design of career development practices aimed at retaining valuable staff

Abstract:
Have scholars properly understood, anticipated, predicted, and in any way helped to shape international organization developments since 1945? Or have they merely reported on events as they unfolded, shifting their research foci from one momentary concern to another in response to the ebb and flow of conditions in the world around them? One pattern that characterizes the maturation of the field of international organization in the postwar era is the steady disengagement of international organization scholars from the study of organizations, so that today one must question whether such a field exists any longer except in name only. The discussion traces the rise and fall of international organization as a field of study, first describing the origins and the evolution of the field, then analyzing the failure of international organization scholars generally to anticipate or shape international organization developments, and finally offering some suggestions for reviving the field and the institutions themselves which are its raison d'être.

Abstract:
This study examines the influence of fair and supportive leadership behavior on employees’ self-reported organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). The model tested assumes that the impact of fair and supportive leadership on OCB is mediated by employees’ commitment to the organization as well as their commitment to their supervisor. A total of 260 bank employees completed a questionnaire in which they rated their supervisor’s behavior, the two commitment foci (organization and supervisor) and the degree to which they engaged in OCB. As a whole, results of structural equation modelling provide support for the hypotheses and indicate that fostering fair and supportive leadership can be worthwhile for organizations.

Abstract:
This study involves a multifoci analysis of antecedents and outcomes of organizational identification (OID), within a dual-organizational identity context. We investigate links between perceived organizational support (POS), OID, organizational involvement, and turnover intention with 736 employees from a UK National Health Service (NHS) Trust. Using Structural Equation Models (SEM), we analyzed models using the Trust and the NHS as organizational foci. With both Trust and NHS foci, POS had a positive effect on identification which, in turn, predicted both outcomes. Organizational support showed a direct and an indirect effect on outcomes through OID. Generally the effects were foci specific, though limited downward crossfoci effects were found.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of the paper is to introduce a systemic approach to organizational learning “triple loop learning” (TLL) that addresses processes of power. Three equally important foci in our TLL are processes of design, processes of debate and processes of power. The focus on power aims to shift “power over” (power as domination) to “power to” enact empowering designs, “power to” co-develop responsible decision-making and “power to” transform our relations with each other and with life on Earth. Design/methodology/approach The organizational learning literature is reviewed in the context of power dynamics and its shortcomings are highlighted. The authors introduce their understanding of TLL, and how it engages with power dynamics in organizations. Findings Peter Senge’s conceptualization of systems thinking is unable to recognize processes of power in organizations and offers limited support to transformative learning. Conceptualizations of TLL aim to enhance learning in organizations but none satisfactorily address the processes of power. The learning organization literature as a whole does not satisfactorily address processes of power or reflect our way of envisaging “looping between loops of learning” in TLL to better design, better debate and better develop relationality in the social fabric of organizations. Originality/value The authors introduce an original approach to TLL that directly addresses the processes of power in organizations. It offers researchers, learning facilitators and practitioners of the learning organization a way to engage with the processes of power without neglecting other important organizational and environmental issues.

Abstract:
This article introduces applied tensional analysis as a methodological framework that integrates constitutive ontologies (that depict organizations as processes in constant states of emerging or becoming) with the applied need for practitioners to understand and navigate the everyday exigencies of their organizational experiences. Applied tensional analysis centers analysis on tensions as the key to understanding organizational becoming in contrast to approaches that assume organizations are stable entities and consequently focus on patterns, themes, or laws. The applied tensional analysis framework offers four analytical foci (context, tensions, enacted responses, and repertoires) organized into two loops (analytical and change) as guides for data collection and analysis. While the analytical loop orients scholars to the current and past configurations of an organization’s emergence, the change loop emphasizes the multitude of available responses to a particular tension and the constitutive implications of those responses for organizational becoming. As a new methodological approach, applied tensional analysis suggests that organizational knowledge requires more than awareness of what an organization is and includes awareness of organizational potential and what an organization might become.

Abstract:
Steroid receptors (SRs) encompass a family of transcription factors that regulate the expression of thousands of genes upon binding to steroid hormones and include the glucocorticoid, androgen, progesterone, estrogen and mineralocorticoid receptors. SRs control key physiological and pathological processes, thus becoming relevant drug targets. As with many other nuclear proteins, hormone-activated SRs concentrate in multiple discrete foci within the cell nucleus. Even though these foci were first observed ∼25 years ago, their exact structure and function remained elusive. In the last years, new imaging methodologies and theoretical frameworks improved our understanding of the intranuclear organization. These studies led to a new paradigm stating that many membraneless nuclear compartments, including transcription-related foci, form through a liquid–liquid phase separation process. These exciting ideas impacted the SR field by raising the hypothesis of SR foci as liquid condensates involved in transcriptional regulation. In this work, we review the current knowledge about SR foci formation under the light of the condensate model, analyzing how these structures may impact SR function. These new ideas, combined with state-of-the-art techniques, may shed light on the biophysical mechanisms governing the formation of SR foci and the biological function of these structures in normal physiology and disease.

Abstract:
Organizational commitment has been recognized as a multiple foci phenomenon with two of the more important foci being the work team and the organization as a whole. That organizational and team commitment can vary differentially has been established. However, research has not attempted to determine the antecedents that may cause them to do so. At the same time, a number of constructs that have been explored as antecedents of organizational commitment have also been recognized as having particular salience in a self-directed work team environment. The purpose of this research is to test a model in which it has been hypothesized that certain antecedents will have differential effects on organizational commitment and team commitment. The model was developed employing constructs that are antecedents of commitment in the workplace and are of particular importance in a self-directed work team environment. All but one of the hypotheses were supported indicating that factors that are important in a self-directed work team environment have differential effects on organizational and team commitment. The results are discussed in terms of both theory and praxis. Implications for practicing managers and future research are presented along with the limitations of the study.

INTRODUCTION: there are several forms of expression, understanding and interpretation of the concept of disability, as well as a multitude of indicators that interfere significantly to the conceptual composition of the theme. In recent decades, the biological view of disability has been expanded due to the inclusion of socio-anthropological aspects. In the case of the deaf, the need to have their story considered through this approach is relevant to the appropriate care by the Health Professionals. OBJECTIVE: to analyze the Brazilian Sign Language (Libras) version of the WHOQOL-BREF instrument for assessing quality of life in focal groups. METHODS: transversal type descriptive and exploratory qualitative research using the technique of focal groups in three groups distributed as follows: 1) deaf people; 2) deaf people families; and 3) Libras interpreters. Two meetings were held with three focal groups. The first aimed to explain all the details of the research, delivery of a DVD, signing of the Term of Free and Informed Consent and application of a sociodemographic questionnaire. The second aimed to discuss and analyze the Libras version of the WHOQOL-BREF. Data were analyzed based on the technique of analysis of categorial and thematic content proposed by Bardin. RESULTS:100% of the participants of the three Focal Groups (GFs) understood and considered the questions relevant to the QOL of the deaf. In the category of suggestion, GF1 came with 76.94%, GF2 presented 65.39% and GF3 came with 73.08% of the questions that needed changes. CONCLUSIONS: the scarcity of scientific research on the use of focal groups with deaf people was considered a challenging factor. This study showed that the technique of focal groups with deaf people will have better success if it consists of a maximum of six members per group.
INTRODUÇÃO: há diversas formas de manifestação, compreensão e interpretação do conceito de deficiência, assim como uma multiplicidade de indicadores que interferem significativamente para a composição conceitual do tema. Nas últimas décadas, a visão biológica da deficiência vem sofrendo ampliações devido à inclusão dos aspectos socioantropológicos. No caso dos surdos, a necessidade de ter sua história analisada neste enfoque é relevante para o atendimento adequado por parte dos profissionais de Saúde. OBJETIVO: analisar a versão em Língua Brasileira de Sinais (Libras) do instrumento de avaliação de qualidade de vida WHOQOL-BREF em grupos focais. MÉTODOS: pesquisa qualitativa de tipologia transversal descritivo-exploratória utilizando a técnica de grupo focal em três grupos assim distribuídos: 1) pessoas surdas; 2) familiares de surdos; 3) intérpretes da Libras. Foram realizadas duas reuniões com três grupos focais. A primeira teve o objetivo de explicar todos os detalhes da pesquisa, entregar um DVD, obter assinatura do Termo de Livre Consentimento e aplicação do questionário sociodemográfico. A segunda objetivou discutir e analisar a versão em Libras do WHOQOL-BREF. Os dados foram analisados com fundamentação na técnica de análise de conteúdo categorial temática proposta por Bardin. RESULTADOS: 100% dos participantes dos três grupos focais compreenderam e consideraram as questões relevantes para a qualidade de vida dos surdos. Na categoria de sugestão, o GF1 apresentou sugestões em 76,94% das questões, o GF2 apresentou 65,39% e o GF3 apresentou 73,08% de sugestões para as questões que precisavam de alterações. CONCLUSÕES: a escassez de produção científica sobre a utilização de grupos focais com pessoas surdas foi considerada fator desafiador. Este estudo evidenciou que a técnica de grupos focais com pessoas surdas terá maior êxito se composta por, no máximo, seis integrantes por grupo.

Abstract:
L’objectif de cette recherche est d’étudier la relation entre les nouvelles carrières et l’engagement organisationnel. La gestion des carrières et l’engagement organisationnel sont importants, à la fois, pour les individus que pour les organisations. Toutefois, les carrières ne sont plus bâties au sein d’une même organisation, elles deviennent des carrières sans frontières. Nous cherchons à comprendre et analyser la nature de l’engagement des ingénieurs consultants en SSII. Les données qualitatives ont été collectées sur le marché de l’emploi français, 47 interviews ont été mené, dans le secteur des SSII. Les résultats montrent que les ingénieurs consultants développent aussi bien un engagement envers la SSII qu’envers l’entreprise cliente. Ils développent aussi un engagement professionnel, un engagement envers l’équipe et un engagement envers le leader. Il s’agit don, d’un engagement multi-cibles. Simplement les carrières de ces ingénieurs ne sont pas nécessairement nomades. Dans ce nouveau contexte, les carrières ne sont plus bâties au sein d’une même organisation, elles deviennent des carrières sans frontières.Elles sont caractérisées par des parcours singuliers et idiosyncrasiques ; des mobilités inter organisationnelles outre celles intra organisationnelles ; une vision plus élargie de la compétence ; une promesse d’employabilité au lieu de la promesse de carrière à vie et la monté de la dimension subjective de la réussite de carrière. D’autre part, au-delà des postulats selon lesquels la question d’implication organisationnelle est devenue une aberration, une telle attitude est encore importante, elle devient même plus cruciale qu’elle l’était auparavant. Suite au désengagement des entreprises et à la responsabilisation des individus en matière de gestion de leurs carrières, la question d’implication devient plus capitale. De ce fait, l’objectif de notre recherche est d’étudier l’impact des carrières individuelles sur l’engagement organisationnel
The purpose of this paper is to study the relationship between new careers and organizational commitment. Managing careers and organizational commitment are typically important for individuals as organizations. However, careers are no longer bounded in one organization, instead, they become boundaryless. We aim to understand and analyze the nature of commitment of IT professional, in the SSIIs in France.Surveys were collected from French labor market; 47 semi-structured interviews were among French persons working for SSII.The findings reveal that SSII engineers develop commitment to the agency: SSII and to the client. They also develop professional commitment, team commitment and Leader commitment. However, their careers are not necessary boundaryless, traditional careers still exist among these professionals on IT

Abstract:
This chapter examines the foci, resources, and mechanisms of leadership in Professional Service Firms, a context where traditional conceptions of leadership and followership are problematic given the importance of individual autonomy to knowledge-based work. The authors argue that leadership in professional service firms is, above all, a process of interaction among professionals seeking to exercise influence at the individual, organizational, and strategic level. It is manifested explicitly through professional expertise, discretely through political interaction, and implicitly through personal embodiment. The authors suggest that these resources are rarely combined in single individuals, which gives rise to the prevalence of collective forms of leadership, supported by embedded mechanisms of social control that channel professional activity.

Abstract:
This chapter explores Marzia's and Jamila's assessments of the conditions for Afghan women in 2010. After a five-year hiatus in their meetings, the author was curious to see what the women would consider progress for their countrywomen as well as their views of continuing needs. She was both encouraged by their reports of progress for women's status and opportunities and unsurprised that almost every advance they described had a caveat, usually one that acknowledged that advances in rights, literacy, public activity, education, and health care were partial, unreliable, and often limited to women in Kabul or in other cities. It was here that the different professional foci of the two women became clearest. Marzia's dedication to the law and the legal profession necessarily kept her eyes primarily on the cities, where the rule of civil law was most likely to count. Jamila's widely networked organization also worked primarily in cities and larger villages, but her emphasis on education and skills training for women had more applicability to nonurban settings. She was therefore in touch with many rural Afghans.

Abstract:
The second half of the seventh millennium BC saw the demise of the previously affluent and dynamic Neolithic way of life. The period is marked by significant social and economic transformations of local communities, as manifested in a new spatial organization, patterns of architecture, burial practices, and in chipped stone and pottery manufacture. This volume has three foci. The first concerns the character of these changes in different parts of the Near East with a view to placing them in a broader comparative perspective. The second concerns the social and ideological changes that took place at the end of Neolithic and the beginning of the Chalcolithic that help to explain the disintegration of constitutive principles binding the large centers, the emergence of a new social system, as well as the consequences of this process for the development of full-fledged farming communities in the region and beyond. The third concerns changes in lifeways: subsistence strategies, exploitation of the environment, and, in particular, modes of procurement, consumption, and distribution of different resources.

Abstract:
This book examines the range of new theories, research, and applications in the most generative areas of positive psychology, at the dawn of a new wave of positive psychology scholarship—one that is increasingly sensitive to real-world issues, adversity, culture, and context. In the 17 years since the inception of the movement, the field of positive psychology has grown tremendously and inspired research and practice across a range of sub-areas. Scientific Advances in Positive Psychology showcases the wide range of new theories, research, applications, and explorations in what can be termed "the next wave of positive psychology," presenting novel findings and theories that acknowledge and mainstream sensitivity to real-world issues, adversity, culture, and context, in fresh new ways. The contributors to the work—among the best known and most experienced in the field—trace the growth of new developments in each of the key foci of positive psychology, including happiness, character strengths, and gratitude, and document the latest research, theory, and applications. The volume focuses on the contributions and development of positive psychology sub-fields, such as positive organizational psychology and positive youth development, as well as their primary application areas, such as positive education.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter sets out to explore the research field of open, distance, and digital education (ODDE) building upon the 3 M-Framework developed in the context of distance education along three broad lines of research: ODDE systems and theories (global macro-level); management, organization, and technology (institutional meso-level); and teaching and learning in ODDE (individual micro-level). Based on various bibliographic analyses, the flow of research areas and trends is described. The COVID-19 pandemic is discussed as a turning point that already has a huge impact on research and practice of the entire field of ODDE. According to thematic similarities and dissimilarities in the academic fields of educational technology (EdTech), distance education (DE), and instructional design (ID), four clusters of academic journals are identified with different thematic foci in various educational contexts. This information can be used to guide researchers to choose an appropriate journal in which to submit their work.

Abstract:
Whereas time has been integral to organizational research since late 1950s, its role in organizations has changed considerably up to the present. The last 20 years have witnessed an acceleration in temporal foci and a major development has been the introduction and operationalization of the philosophy of time in organizational research. The changing role of time in organizational research over the past decades is discussed as a basis for developing the theoretical framework, which is the main contribution of the book (time-as-experience, time-as-resource, time-as-events, and time-as-practice). The chapter discusses how works on time and organization may be synthesized into the four dimensions of the framework. The review also reveals how dichotomies that dominate in time research may be questioned or overcome.

Abstract:
Level of personality organization refers to a system of classification of personality pathology based in object relations theory. Within this framework, personality disorders are characterized according to severity of pathology, ranging from mild to extreme, based on assessment of the individual’s identity, quality of object relations, defensive functioning, management of aggression, moral functioning, and reality testing. The object relations theory model of personality and personality disorders prioritizes personality functioning, while focusing on the mental representations of self and others that organize subjective experience and observable behavior. Assessment of the level of personality organization guides clinical intervention, including determinations of level of care, treatment goals, and clinical foci. The object relations theory model of classification both overlaps significantly with and can also be distinguished from the Alternative Model of Personality Functioning of DSM-5.

Abstract:
This chapter presents a theory to explain why insurgent organizations attack civilians. One of the main foci is embeddedness theory, which argues that social interactions between entities will have a major impact on the behavior of organizations. Drawing on this perspective and other theoretical building blocks, the chapter explores how the relationships between insurgent organizations and the state, other insurgents, and the public impact the likelihood that the organization will target civilians. It is theorized that government conciliatory measures (carrots) should lead to a lower likelihood of subsequent civilian targeting, whereas government coercion (sticks) should be associated with a higher likelihood. Regarding interorganizational relationships, it is hypothesized that insurgent alliances and rivalries should be associated with a greater propensity toward attacks on civilian. Regarding relationships between insurgents and the public, it is argued that social service provision, ethnic motivations, and involvement in crime should lead to a greater likelihood of subsequent attacks on civilians.

Abstract:
The chapter summarizes the conceptual and empirical writing and research on organizational climate surveys that have strategic foci. Strategic foci means that such surveys contain items descriptive of organizational policies, practices, procedures, and behaviors that get rewarded, supported, and expected and that link directly with important strategic organizational outcomes like service and safety. The conceptual logic for such surveys was stimulated by an early emphasis on the need for organizational climate surveys to “focus on something” and not be abstract or undefined. The chapter reviews the theory and the resultant convincing evidence that supports this climate for something approach, focusing especially on the climate for service and the climate for safety. Examples of foci-specific climate survey items are also provided.

Abstract:
A preliminary design study has been made, including development of scientific potential and costing for an 11.3-m telescope in the form of a Multiple Mirror Telescope (MMT) with two 8-m elements with edge-to-edge spacing of 20-23 m. Four organizations are jointly planning it. The size, weight, and cost are kept down without compromise of limiting image quality and infrared performance by using F/1 optics, a novel alt-az cradle-platform mechanical design, active thermal control of the facility, and siting on Mt. Graham. The telescope is planned for wide field imaging and spectroscopy at the separate Cassegrain foci and high resolution interferometric image synthesis at the combined focus. The potential expansion to a higher resolution versatile array by the addition of one or two more 8-m apertures is discussed.

Abstract:
Because the high subjectivity of value perception, besides the competitive environment of civil construction market, the focus on the external customer usually conflicts with the value to the organization’s internal customer. Thus, it is questioned who the different stakeholders in the construction chain are, and at what levels should have their view of value considered. As part of this process, this article aims to understand how stakeholders-builders have applied different management strategies in the crowded construction market. For this, semi-structured questionnaires were applied to managers of different companies, especially those with strategic decision-making powers. With this, a characterization of the management profiles was obtained, perceiving similar foci in the strategies of the companies, mainly in relation to the marketing for the external client and the internal innovation. It is concluded that, although there are clear focuses on business strategies, there is significant room for improvement in sectors such as technological innovations, people management and supplies.
