Abstract:
Sponsors and clients of agricultural R&D are showing increasing concern about research costs and benefits. R&D organisations need to assess the impact of research to justify spending, obtain continuous technical and financial support from donors, and research sponsors. Further, impact assessment for R&D organisations are essential to assess their management systems in order to optimise the benefits from scarce research resources. At present criteria to assess the performance, objective verifiable indicators and means of verification are not available. No systematic method is in practice to assess the research management performance. Therefore, a study was under taken to develop tea R&D management criteria and incorporated these in a methodology to assess performance of research management in the tea sector. A case study approach was adopted. Six case studies were conducted on Tea Research Institutes of Asia and Africa. Case studies were grouped into two phases. Phase One was exploratory in nature and developed the conceptual framework for the research. This enabled the identification of research management criteria, objective verifiable indicators and means of verification. These can be used to improve in R&D management decision making. In addition, a scoring model was developed to assess the performance of research management in tea. Phase Two applied the developed conceptual model to four tea R&D organisations and analysed their performance. This clearly showed that the identified criteria and developed conceptual model can be used to analyses the performance of tea R&D management. Results indicated that there is lack of a structured approach to organising and conducting R&D activities. Research is carried out without any systematic approach for research prioritisation. Appraisal and resource allocation are inadequately addressed. Management information systems for rational, quick and effective decision making for the most part are weak and unorganised. Data on resource utilisation and benefits derived by individual research projects are rarely recorded and maintained properly. There is a lack of general awareness especially regarding importance of studying the rate of uptake of technology. A good correlation, however, was observed between organisations adopting best practices and suggested guidelines and the performance of tea R&D organisations in terms of perceived benefit to the client industry. The most effective R&D was associated with committee culture, problem identification, monitoring, evaluation, publication, technology dissemination and feedback. The developed model was applied in specific context of Bangladesh Tea Research Institute. Specific suggestions are made on how to improve the linkages with the industry, better ways of problem identification, evaluation and technology dissemination, and there by increased contribution to the productivity of the tea sector. A research management cycle (RPCM) was developed which proposes to carry out research in an organised way emphasising the participation of the beneficiary. Best practices for all the identified criteria and guidelines for major research management criteria were developed to support in R&D decision making. The study recommends further work to monitor and evaluate the application of the guidelines in practice.

Abstract:
Management accounting and control research in developing countries has neglected gender issues. Focusing on management controls over marginalised female workers in Sri Lankan tea plantations, this thesis tries to fill this gap. It takes a postcolonial feminist perspective to theorise ethnographic accounts of mundane controls. The findings illustrate that there are 'embedded‘ controls through colonial and postcolonial legacies, which made the female workers 'double colonised‘. The notion of subalternity captures these repressive forms of controls in their work as tea pluckers. However, postcolonial transformations created a space for resistance against these controls. This shaped a subaltern agency and emancipation and gave rise to a more enabling form of postcolonial management control. The thesis contributes to debates in postcolonial feminist studies in organisations and management control research in general, and management control research in developing countries, in particular.

Abstract:
Supply and synchronization of plant-available nitrogen (N) to the soil is a major challenge for organic farmers, especially when growing crops in soils that are in transition from conventional to organic systems. This research evaluated the effects of site produced cover crops and application of soil amendments on N uptake and crop yield of organic Irish potato (Solanum tuberosum) and sweet corn (Zea mays). Cover crops were crimson clover (Trifolium incarnatum) and forage radish (Raphanus sativus). Soil amendments included in-row application of commercially produced dehydrated compost tea absorbed on charcoal (Soil Biology Innovations) and post-plant sidedressing with organic N fertilizer. Irish potato and sweet corn were grown at the Kentland Agricultural Research Farm near Blacksburg, VA in an organic transition soil during the summers of 2006 and 2007. Nitrogen uptake and crop yield were not affected by cover crop species in either year. SBI increased yield of sweet corn, but not Irish potato for both years; SBI had no effect on N uptake of either crop. Post-plant N sidedressing increased N uptake and crop yield of Irish potato and sweet corn in 2007, but had no effect on crop yield in 2006, presumably because pre-plant organic fertilizer was applied at planting in 2006, but not in 2007. This study shows that the combination of site produced cover crops and applied soil amendments may be required to produce high marketable yields of organic Irish potato and sweet corn in the transition soil used in these experiments.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Grey mould, caused by Botrytis cinerea, is the most important foliar disease of rooibos seedlings. Although the disease is primarily controlled with applications of fungicides, the improvement of cultural methods of disease management should lessen this dependence on chemical control. Such improvements would, however, not be possible without knowledge of the inoculum sources and dispersal of the pathogen. The aim of this study was to investigate the inoculum ecology of B. cinerea in rooibos nurseries in order to identify primary sources of inoculum and to improve the environmentally friendly management of the disease. The study was conducted in four nurseries over two production seasons (March to July 2003 and 2004). Levels of airborne inoculum of B. cinerea were monitored on a monthly basis inside and around the nurseries with spore traps. Samples of plant material and organic debris were taken in the corresponding areas to determine the incidence of plant material infected by the pathogen and the incidences of grey mould in the nurseries were recorded. Low numbers of B. cinerea colonies were observed on the spore traps. Similar levels of airborne inoculum were observed inside and around the nurseries. The incidence of plant material yielding B. cinerea was higher outside the nurseries than inside, indicating the importance of such materials as potential sources of inoculum. Since patterns of airborne inoculum observed in this study confirmed reports of the local dispersal of B. cinerea, the removal of possible hosts outside the nurseries could aid in the management of grey mould in rooibos nurseries. Resistance to dicarboximide fungicides is a genetically stable trait in B. cinerea, and therefore has the potential to be used as a phenotypic marker. This marker can be used to gain knowledge on the dispersal of B. cinerea inoculum inside and outside rooibos nurseries. Isolates of B. cinerea collected from the air and from plant material in and around four rooibos nurseries were assessed for resistance to iprodione at 1 and 3 μg/ml a.i. Some of the isolates showed resistance to iprodione at 1 μg/ml a.i. However, none of the isolates showed resistance at 3 μg/ml a.i. iprodione. The initial incidence of dicarboximide-resistance at the nurseries was slightly higher than expected. As the season progressed, the incidence of iprodione-resistant isolates decreased towards May, after which an increase was observed towards July. A relatively high percentage of isolates collected outside the nurseries was found to be dicarboximide-resistant. Two of the nurseries had a significant higher incidence of resistant isolates on plant material collected inside, than on plant material collected outside the nursery. However, when looking at resistance levels of airborne isolates, no significant differences were found in the incidence of resistant isolates sampled inside and outside the four nurseries. The data indicated the importance of organic debris and seed-borne infections in the survival and dispersal of dicarboximide-resistant isolates of the pathogen. With the current emphasis on organic agriculture the knowledge gained in this study presents valuable possibilities of improving the cultural management of grey mould in rooibos nurseries.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Vaalvrot, veroorsaak deur Botrytis cinerea, is die belangrikste bo-grondse siekte van rooibossaailinge. Alhoewel die beheer van die siekte hoofsaaklik op die gebruik van fungisiede berus, behoort die verbetering van verbouingspraktyke hierdie afhanklikheid van chemiese beheer te verminder. Sulke verbeteringe sal egter slegs moontlik wees indien voldoende kennis van die inokulumbronne en verspreiding van die patogeen beskikbaar is. Die doel van hierdie ondersoek was om die inokulum ekologie van B. cinerea in rooibos kwekerye te ondersoek sodat primêre inokulumbronne opgespoor en omgewingsvriendelike siektebestuurspraktyke verbeter kan word. Die ondersoek is in vier kwekerye oor twee produksie seisoene (Maart tot Julie 2003 en 2004) uitgevoer. Vlakke van luggedraagde inokulum van B. cinerea is op ’n maandelikse basis met behulp van spoorvangers binne en buite die kwekerye gemonitor. Monsters van plantmateriaal en organiese materiaal is in ooreenstemmende areas geneem om die voorkoms van B. cinerea geïnfekteerde plantmateriaal vas te stel en die voorkoms van vaalvrot in die kwekerye is aangeteken. Min B. cinerea kolonies is op die spoorvangers waargeneem. Soortgelyke vlakke van luggedraagde inokulum is binne en buite die kwekerye waargeneem. Die hoër voorkoms van B. cinerea geïnfekteerde plantmateriaal buite die kwekerye as binne, dui op die belang van sulke materiaal as potensiële inokulumbronne. Aangesien die patrone van luggedraagde inokulum, soos waargeneem in hierdie ondersoek, ander berigte van B. cinerea se beperkte verspreidingsvermoë bevestig, kan die verwydering van moontlike alternatiewe gashere buite die kwekerye die bestuur van die siekte binne die kwekerye verbeter. Weerstand teen dikarboksimied fungisiede is ’n geneties-stabiele kenmerk in B. cinerea en het daarom potensiaal om as ’n fenotipiese merker gebruik te word. Hierdie merker kan gebruik word om kennis aangaande die verspreiding van B. cinerea in en om rooibos kwekerye in te samel. Botrytis cinerea isolate in lug en op plantmateriaal in en om vier rooibos kwekerye is gedurende 2003 en 2004 versamel. Die isolate is vir weerstandbiedendheid teen iprodioon by konsentrasies van 1 en 3 μg/ml aktiewe bestandeel (a.b.) getoets. Isolate met weerstand teen 1 μg/ml a.b. iprodioon is waargeneem, maar nie teen 3 μg/ml nie. Die aanvanklike voorkoms van dikarboksimiedweerstand by die kwekerye was hoër as verwag. Hierdie vlak het egter gedaal met die verloop van die seisoen tot in Mei, waarna ’n toename tot in Julie waargeneem is. Die persentasie dikarboksimied-weerstandbiedende isolate buite die kwekerye was relatief hoog. In twee van die kwekerye was die voorkoms van weerstandbiedende isolate op plantmateriaal in die kwekerye betekenisvol hoër as op plantmateriaal buite die kwekerye. Daar was egter geen betekenisvolle verskille in die voorkoms van luggedraagde weerstandbiedende isolate nie, ongeag van die kwekery of posisie. Die data dui op die belang van organiese materiaal en saadgedraagde infeksies in die oorlewing en verspreiding van dikarboksimied-weerstandbiedende isolate van die patogeen. Met die huidige klem op organiese landbou bied die inligting wat in hierdie ondersoek versamel is moontlike praktyke wat geïmplementeer kan word om die beheer van vaalvrot in kwekerye met behulp van verbouingspraktyke te verbeter.

Abstract:

Today's rapid changes and major business developments in organizations increase the need for effective management teams. In management teams, there are significant demands on the members to understand how strategic, tactical and operational decisions and actions generate results. High management team effectiveness requires optimum cooperation between the members with particular emphasis on well-operated communication and ability and flexibility in working as a team. It further requires a deep understanding of the factors that influence the

management team effectiveness. The challenge to create a theoretical dynamic model to indicate development potentials regarding the effectiveness in the management teams represents the foundation for the idea behind this master thesis.

This master thesis presents a theoretical management dynamic model I have developed based on identified key factors that influence the effectiveness of management teams. For identification of these key factors, I have used literary studies and research concerning the concept of team, management team, team effectiveness, leading organizations, organization development, dynamic models and many other concepts.

I have categorized these key factors in five criteria. These criteria are engagement and dynamic leadership, team spirit, management meetings, conflict management and visions and objectives. In view of that, my definition of an effective management team is: team where high-engaged and motivated members including a strategic and dynamic leader work in a team having a good team spirit, hold effective management meetings and manage conflicts effectively to make qualified decisions that mainly are concentrated to reach welldefined bjectives and visions”.

 The inspired idea behind my model is to integrate these criteria in the mechanical system called the Planetary Gear System to create a metaphoric image describing the dynamic of management teams and their effectiveness. Strategies for measuring these criteria also are identified and presented in this master thesis. These properties make the present dynamic model to a unique model in its appearance and functionality. The main function of my model is to indicate development potentials in the management teams. These development potentials are then used to give the studied management team relevant recommendations aimed at making the management team more effective. The aim of this master thesis is to investigate whether the developed model fulfill this function.

In order to investigate the ability of the model to fulfill this function the model has been applied to a real management team. The results have shown that the model has sufficient ability to indicate development potentials in the studied management team. The obtained results have been analyzed using SPSS computer program. Based on these results several recommendations are given. In this manner, the model has fulfilled stated expectations. However, a couple of additional actions aimed at increasing the qualifications of the presented dynamic model are identified at the end of this master thesis.

With the intention of verifying whether the developed model contributes to make the studied management team more effective, the performed measurement should be repeated after a period of at least six months. The re-measurement is necessary to follow up the effect of the given recommendations and also to indicate any new development potential. Such a task is recommended for further research and development of the model.

Abstract:
Prior literature documents that the diversity of top management team (TMT) functional experiences enhances firm performance through its effect on information processing and sharing between team members. In this study, I examine whether TMT functional diversity affects management forecast accuracy via the information aggregation and communication among top executives. If functional diversity among individuals allows top executives to better process and share information, a greater degree of functional diversity should lead to more accurate management forecasts. TMT functional diversity can take two forms. The first, between-member functional diversity, refers to the heterogeneity in the primary functional domains of each TMT member, and the second, within-member functional diversity, refers to the average intrapersonal breadth of functional experiences of each TMT. I find that both types are positively associated with management forecast accuracy. In cross-sectional analyses, I find that the effect of TMT functional diversity is more important for firms with greater uncertainty and complexity and for firms that are led by CEOs and CFOs who are narrow functional specialists. Collectively, the results suggest that TMT functional diversity plays an important role in management disclosure, thereby shedding light on how the knowledge composition of top management influences the aggregation and communication of financial information.

Abstract:

The purpose of this quantitative correlational study was to test the full-range leadership theory and measure the relationship, if any, between team captains’ leadership styles and team outcome (by winning percentage). Analyzing the relationship between team captains’ leadership styles and performance would add knowledge to the existing research on leadership development in the area of sport. A review of literature yielded few studies of athlete leadership and performance compared to coach leadership. Discovering potential relationships between athlete leadership and performance may challenge beliefs that coach leadership is more important than other types of informal leadership. The study involved the surveying of student-athletes, team captains, and coaches of collegiate athletic programs from a single Division III College located in the Midwest. The Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ-5x) was used to assess the four leadership constructs: transformational, transactional, passive-avoidant, and laissez-faire leadership of team captains. Results of the correlation indicated a significant relationship between transformational and transactional leadership mean scores and team performance via winning percentage. ANOVA regression results indicated that no significant differences existed between team captain’s mean scores that could be attributed to the survey participant’s role on their respective team. Recommendations for future research include replication with a larger sample, including more schools and various sports.

Em aplicações colaborativas distribuídas, o uso de repositórios centralizados para armazenamento dos dados e programas compartilhados compromete algumas características importantes desse tipo de aplicações, tais como tolerância a falhas, escalabilidade e autonomia local. Aplicações como Kazaa, Gnutella e Edutella exemplificam o emprego de computação ponto-a-ponto (P2P), que tem se mostrado uma alternativa interessante para solução dos problemas apontados acima, sem impor as restrições típicas de sistemas centralizados ou mesmo distribuídos do tipo mediadores e SGBDHs. Nesse trabalho apresentamos a arquitetura TEAM (Teamwork-support Environment Architectural Model) para gerência de workflows na web. Além de descrevermos os componentes e conectores da arquitetura, que se baseia em computação P2P, tratamos dos aspectos de modelagem de processos, gerência dos dados, metadados e das informações de controle de execução dos processos. Exploramos, também, a estratégia adotada para disseminação das consultas e mensagens encaminhadas aos pares da rede em ambientes baseados na arquitetura.

Besides describing the components and connectors of the architecture, which is based on P2P computing, we address the modelling of processes and management of data, metadata and execution control information.We also discuss the strategy adopted for queries dissemination and messages sent to peers in environments based on the architecture. We illustrate the application of TEAM in a case study in e-learning.

Abstract:
The utilisation of incentives is essential for the success of organisations. Given the complexity of the real business world and the scarcity of high quality data, the academic literature on the impacts of incentives remains scant. This thesis contributes to the literature by studying three different incentives including remuneration for multitasking group leaders, team formation rules, and determinants of manager-employee mentoring relationships. I map my economic analysis into three unique datasets to examine the incentive effects. I conducted a field experiment in two Chinese factories. I introduced rank incentives and monetary prizes to group leaders regarding their organisational behaviours. As a result, I find a significant increase in group performance. In another study, I designed a laboratory experiment with two stages of a real effort task to test the possible dynamic effects of optimal team composition. The results show that pairing the worst performing individuals with the best yields 20% lower first stage effort than random matching. Pairing the best with the best, however, yields 5% higher first stage effort than random matching. Last but not the least, I study both non-monetary and monetary determinants of mentoring relationships between managers and employees in British firms by using data from the Workplace Employment Relations Survey. In particular, I focus on the role of a manager's gender and the use of managerial incentive schemes. Past literature suggests a significant association between a manager's gender and mentoring behaviour. However, using longitudinal data this paper finds that the significant relationship disappears once firm fixed effects are included. The results also show a positive but weak association between managerial incentive schemes and managers' mentoring behaviour. Widespread mentorships are more likely to be found in firms where managers' payments are linked to organisational profits.

Abstract:
Multinational teams (MNTs) have traditionally consisted of members from different nationalities, and such teams have attempted to capitalise on the diversity of the members to create innovative solutions. Currently, dynamic capabilities, by which is meant the ability to integrate, coordinate and upgrade capabilities to respond to environmental changes and dynamic demands, have been urged on multinational companies. However, very limited attention has been paid to how functional MNT leaders utilise team capabilities, including the diversity of the members, to enhance team effectiveness in organisational processes. To address that research gap, this study investigates functional MNT leadership skills aligned with dynamic capabilities and McGrath’s Input–Process–Output (IPO) model. First, it explores organisational processes and roles of functional MNT leaders from a perspective of dynamic capabilities. Second, it examines the mediation effect of functional MNT leadership skills by testing the proposed IPO model, and investigates similarities and differences between functional MNTs in two locations, Japan and Germany. The findings show that the right combination of functional MNT leadership skills – intra-team and extra-team relational skills, communication skills, setting clear goals, managing differences of national cultures, and technical competences – is required depending on the type of functional MNT and the location.

Abstract:
The changed political climate in South Africa has contributed to the erosion of the traditional autocratic powers of the principal and the increased demand by teachers to be involved in the making of decisions which affect them directly. This has necessitated a different approach to school management. Team management is one such an approach. The research aims are to determine the nature of team management, the task and role of the principal in facilitating team management and the extent to which team management is implemented in secondary schools attended predominantly by black students in South Africa. The research methods used to achieve the aims are a literature study and an empirical survey. The investigation of the nature of team management revealed that the team management approach is based on the theories of McGregor, Herzberg, Maslow, Likert and Argyris, and that the advantages of team management outweigh its disadvantages. The prerequisites for team management were found to be active leadership, effective communication, participative decision-making and sharing power and authority. The 9,9 (team management) leadership style was found to be the most appropriate for team management. Communication within the teams should accord with Likert's System 4 communication process. With regard to the role and task of the principal in facilitating team management the study revealed that he should create opportunities for staff development and establish good human relations; ensure that the plans of the different teams complement one another in promoting school goals and distribute the work load evenly amongst teams. The principal should also promote the active and effective participation of team members in decision-making. He should treat this participation not as a favour, but as the teacher's democratic right. The principal should also level the decision-making field by ensuring that all participants have sufficient information on the topic under discussion. It was also found that the role of the principal in team building consisted of improving people related and task related skills. From the findings of the literature study a structured questionnaire was developed. The target population for the empirical survey consisted of principals, departmental heads and teachers in schools attended predominantly by black students in the Gauteng province. This part of the study revealed that the majority of principals perceived their leadership style differently from their heads of departments and teachers. The target population in general perceived the communication process with regard to team management in the schools as favourable. However, almost half the number of teachers felt deprived of participation in decision-making on issues which fall under their zone of concern. A few of the most important recommendations of the study are that principals should share leadership and authority with the various team leaders and teachers in the school. They should also rely on expert power rather than on legitimate power. In addition, the professional autonomy of teachers and the managerial authority of principals should be harmonised, while bureaucratic management by principals should be minimised. Overall, it can be concluded that there are traces of team management practices in the schools attended predominantly by black students in South Africa. This means that the usage of the team management approach is limited and should therefore be promoted.

Abstract:
In this dissertation, I integrate research on role-based coordination with concepts adapted from the team effectiveness literature to theorize how minimal team structures support effective coordination when people do not work together regularly. I argue that role-based coordination among relative strangers can be interpersonally challenging and propose that team scaffolds (minimal team structures that bound groups of roles rather than groups of individuals) may provide occupants with a temporary shared in-group that facilitates interaction. I develop and test these ideas in a multi-method, multi-site field study of a new work structure, called pods, that were implemented in many hospital emergency departments (EDs) and were sometimes designed to function as team scaffolds.

D.B.A.
Most studies on rivalry analyze the phenomenon where participants are on opposing sides in business organizations or sports teams (i.e., inter-team rivalry). Currently, the rivalry literature is expanding to examine the effects of rivalry among team members if a manager or coach creates an environment marked by intra-team rivalry. Study 1 examined team member behaviors and individual and team performance within teams (i.e., intra-team rivalry) by having 311 collegiate students recall their experiences participating on a high school athletic team. Findings indicated that intra-team rivalry was positively related to individual performance and team performance. Social comparison mediated the positive relationship between intra-team rivalry and individual performance. In Study 2 adjustments to the research model allowed further exploration of team performance and intra-team rivalry. Study 2 surveyed 240 current collegiate student athletes twice examining the same hypotheses at the 1) individual level, and 2) team level via data aggregation. Findings consistent with both surveys indicated that social comparison was positively related to intra-team rivalry; intra-team rivalry was positively related to individual deviance; and both individual performance, and motivation were positively related to team performance. Unique to Survey 1, intra-team rivalry was positively related to motivation. Unique to Survey 2, negative relationship between individual deviance and team performance. Implications for team members, leaders, and organizations are compelling.

Abstract:

The topic of the study was the relationship between national culture and software development project team performance. Relationships were examined through the lenses of Hofstede’s cultural dimension model and the human performance technology model. Research indicated that software development project teams continue to face challenges completing projects within planned scope, on schedule, and within budget despite improved project management methods. The identified gap in the research was that most studies were qualitative and non-productivity related, a gap addressed by this quantitative, productivity-focused study. Four research questions were posed to determine the relationship between national culture and project team performance. Each question inquired as to the relationship between a team-level cultural measure and the number of user stories completed by the team during a sprint. The power distance (PDI) measures were the project team’s average PDI and the PDI variance within the project team. The uncertainty avoidance (UAI) measures were the project team’s average UAI and the UAI variance within the project team. A quantitative method was applied using a sample from the population of software development project teams that used the Agile management method. The data were extracted from archived productivity project data from 73 sprints conducted by teams from one firm. Archived email data identifying each team member’s country of origin was used for each member’s national culture. Spearman’s rho was applied to the dataset. Results indicated there was a statistically significant relationship between PDI variance and team productivity, and between UAI variance and team productivity. The relationship between a team’s average PDI and team productivity, and between the team’s average UAI and team productivity, tended toward significance. Avenues for future research include duplicating the study using additional cultures and analyzing the relationship using additional Hofstede cultural dimensions.

Abstract:
[Context] Interdisciplinary healthcare teams (IHTs) include practitioners from different disciplines who collaborate for providing care to patients. IHTs often follow clinical workflows composed of tasks that must be executed by practitioners with specific capabilities. The membership in an IHT can however evolve over time for a given patient. [Problem] Existing Business Process Management (BPM) suites and their workflow execution engines are designed for supporting and monitoring general workflows, but they are insufficient in supporting the allocation of tasks to the most suitable practitioners during the execution of healthcare workflows in a dynamic context. [Methodology] Using Design Science Research, this thesis builds on top of an existing semantic layer, which includes an ontology defining IHT team concepts and relationships that are used to reason automatically about team dynamics, in order to add dynamic team management to BPM suites. It does so by proposing and designing middleware (including a generic interface) that enables the semantic layer to command the BPM suite to allocate suitable practitioners to tasks during the execution of clinical workflows. The design and implementation of this middleware are discussed, and the latter is tested on a commercial BPM suite for two realistic clinical processes. [Results] The proof-of-concept implementation demonstrates the feasibility of using middleware with a generic interface to add support for IHT executing BPM suite when managing a patient. In addition, the thesis also demonstrates that the ontology used in the semantic layer is minimal, that is, all of its concepts and relationships are necessary for the required team functionalities (usually absent from BPM tools) to work properly.

Abstract:

The purpose of this qualitative case study was to explore the role lean management tools serve to potentially stimulate learning within an (R&D) team at a top 10 pharmaceutical company located in Northeast U.S. to ensure the organization can manage knowledge for developing innovation for drug development at a faster rate. Each of the nine participants worked together using the visual lean management tool for more than six months The information gathered from participant responses to semi-structured interview questions revealed the experiences, viewpoints, and reflections of the research participants regarding how the use of visual lean management tool influenced learning. Data were coded and analyzed with NVivo software for windows (QSR International, 2015) to obtain a detailed qualitative analysis of the narratives of each participant. The five findings included: (a) the SQDCI visual lean management tool provided a forum to share information to improve meeting metrics and timelines; (b) employee engagement and participation influenced the use of the SQDCI tool, meeting metrics, and timelines; (c) the metrics tracked by the SQDCI tool influenced employee engagement and meeting goals; (d) leadership support influenced employee engagement; (e) and time pressures negatively impact engagement in using the SQDCI tool and attending additional training. This qualitative case study contributed to the literature by identifying how the use of visual lean management tool influenced organizational learning by a pharmaceutical R&D team. Finding methodologies that enhance the engagement of employees to transfer and manage knowledge remains essential for the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract:
As an exposed structure, the tear film is exposed to a variety of environmental conditions that may adversely affect its ability to fulfil its function. The aim of this work is to investigate tear film parameters and the interrelationship between these parameters during exposure to adverse environmental conditions. A wide range of parameters were monitored over a range of relative humidity (RH) and ambient temperatures. Evaporation rate and ocular surface temperature (OST) increased dramatically when room temperature increased from 5 to 25°C. Also changes in lipid layer thickness (LLT) and tear film stability were seen at ambient temperatures of less than 10°C. Changes in tear physiology were also seen during exposure to 5% RH compared to 40 RH%. All tear parameters observed (except OST) were adversely affected by the exposure to a desiccating environment. Some tear film parameters observed became typical of that seen in patients with dry eye.

Abstract:
More than ninety per cent of projects are run by project teams and the stronger the team the more likely the project will succeed. Team building activities are performed to both increase team performance and to enhance the likelihood of project success. For the purpose of this study, information technology (IT) business projects were chosen as IT is a major driving force in business today and there is widespread dissatisfaction with the performance of IT business projects. In analysing the causes of dissatisfaction, increasingly researchers are recognising that technology is a secondary issue behind the human side of project team management. Business projects were chosen because increasingly IT is being used in the business environment to solve problems in the post-industrial era characterised by the service industry, while the manufacturing industry, from which much of the project literature has emerged, reduces. The importance of the project team in developing IT business projects is well recognised and managers are concerned about their ability to transform an ad-hoc collection of people assigned to a particular project into a coherent, integrated project team. In most cases the activities recommended to build a successful IT business project team have been theoretically based, rather than empirically founded. The goal of this research was to investigate the team building activities used on successful projects. To achieve this goal, the research defines the key measures of project success and establishes their relative importance; determines the most important team building activities for project success with experienced project managers; enhances the understanding of implementation of team building activities on successful projects; and provides suggestions on how to increase the likelihood of project success through focusing on team building activities. The research used the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to develop a hierarchical model linking project success measures with team building activities. Confirmation of the AHP results and additional understanding of team building activities implementation was achieved by interviewing experienced project managers. The research found that customer satisfaction, although seldom used, was significantly more important as a project success measure than the three measures most often used - time, budget and scope. As identified by project managers, the most important team building activities for achieving customer satisfaction are team leadership; ensuring senior management support; staffing the team properly; planning the project with the team and empowering team members; building commitment among team members; developing strong communication channels and developing appropriate organisational interfaces. The research found successful projects focused on relationships in addition to the task focus of many project methodologies. The research findings on team building activities will enable project leaders on IT business projects to develop empowered project teams with stronger affiliations and support throughout the organisation. By empowering project teams to create effective internal and external relationships there will be fewer project failures, increased customer satisfaction and improved achievement of project success.

Abstract The issue of pesticide residue in tea leaves has gained long-standing attention. Extant methods for pesticide management include registering pesticides and monitoring residue in food products and the environment. The tolerance standard for pesticide residues is based on the risk assessment results. Taiwan currently classifies 349 pesticides that correspond to 4,100 types of agricultural produce. The legality of these pesticides is judged by the type of residue and the type of produce to which they correspond. Taiwan’s limited land area and dense population have resulted in a reduced gap between crops. This increases the risk of pesticides spreading among crops and causes pesticides to spread to non-corresponding produce, consequently resulting in pesticide residue violations. Based on the eight major tea-growing areas characterized in the 2014 Tea Vendor Management Project announced by Health Bureau, Nantou County Government, the researchers of the present study compiled and analyzed a data set comprising 150 tea samples. Findings showed that although non-corresponding pesticide residues were not observed in the samples, all samples manifested corresponding residues exceeding their respective standard tolerance levels. Moreover, discrepancies concerning the legality of standard tolerance levels of various pesticides were revealed. For example, independent sample observations showed the simultaneous presence of more than 10 types of pesticide. However, all residues were within standard tolerance, suggesting that cumulative risk may be overlooked in the inspection process. The pass rate for the 150 tea samples collected from the 2014 Tea Vendor Management Project was 98%. The highest number of pesticide variety observed on a single sample was 10, with the Shy Jih Chuen variety claiming prominence and achieving significantly different results than the other tea varieties. Observations on the processes for preparing tea leaves showed no significantly differences between complete fermentation, partial fermentation, and non-fermentation processes. In addition, observations on the correlation between latitude and residue concentration showed no obvious differences between the eight major tea-growing areas, suggesting that pesticide usage is unaffected by region or geographical environment, but influenced by tree variety, instead. Findings show that although Taiwanese tea farmers legally administer pesticide, legislation governing the risk of the number of pesticides and the interaction among pesticides need to be emphasized and re-evaluated so that they conform to the public’s food safety expectations. Risk assessment is undoubtedly a dynamic science that evolves apace with scientific development and public awareness. Precise risk assessment requires the interdisciplinary collaboration between toxicology, biostatistics, epidemiology, and pharmacology, among others. Because ambiguous data create uncertainties and change over time, assessing the risk of pesticide residues should be re-assessed based on total amount risk and interaction to alleviate unknown risk.

Tea appeared around six thousand years ago and could be regards as a symbol of cultural development. After long evolutions, when the society remains stable and the nation get prosperity, the manner of drinking tea would demonstrate breakthrough developments. The space design of tea house has evolved from the ancient times, when drinking tea at outdoor was beginning. Today, modern tea houses not only provide basic drinks, but also play an important role as the culture inheritance. This article attempts to discover the creativity and entrepreneurship in the new beverage (tea) industry, and discusses how the tea house business expands, how the strategy and process were developed and how the value was created. In another word, the growth of the enterprise comes from various aspects. By using informal information sharing system, company staffs can share creative ideas with each other during limited time. By allocating resources according to competitive advantages, the company can mainly focus on its targets. Most importantly, by sharing the value and the mission together, all members in the company can path forward to the same direction. The research initiates from life aesthetics, then categorizes the public opinions regarding tea houses, and collects information about tea from essays, books and columns as references. At last, it ends with case interviews to clearly present the business owner’s faith and attitude. The owner has basic business knowledge, abilities of mapping executive strategies, insistence on business plan and the power of implement. These important qualifications would determine the success of tea house business. Nevertheless, there are certain limitations. For examples, the stability of material supply, the consistence of product processing, and whether the product design fits the customer expectations, would need to be overcome for the future development.

The tea industry in Lugu Township is indispensable for the study of Taiwan’s tea industry. As time goes, the tea industry has faced the global competition and operating difficulties that reached the critical point in which it needs to be transformed. Taiwan’s tea industry has also responded to this trend. In addition to the improvement of tea quality, it is also needed to further improve production, marketing, and promotion thus the tea industry can sustain continuously. This study mainly focuses on the transformation of individual cases and the government policies to achieve sustainable management. Through the resource-based approach, historical research approach, and case-study approach, researchers analyzed the problems encountered during the entire transformation process, faced with problems, solved problems, and finally proposed effective methods for improvement. As soon as we overcome difficulties, we will continue to advance and achieve our perfect results today. Looking at the results of the study, the researchers studied and concluded the case in three directions. First, vertical integration of the tea industry chain be done. In three directions, tea planting, tea processing, tea circulation and consumption, and upstream, middle, and downstream manufacturers have strategic alliances to increase their competitive advantage.Second, the combination of cultural creativity and leisure industry, the case deeply loves the art of pottery and the culture of tea ceremony, plus the operation of the bed and breakfast, combined with the development of the leisure industry in Taiwan. Third, the innovative R&D capability shows that the cases can be invincible in the competitive Red Sea. The development of organic tea has injected a new force into the trend of self-cultivation. From the perspective of its operating companies, the case has made good use of its unique internal resources, grasped opportunities, coordinated with the timely transition of government laws and policies, changed the operating model, analyzed its own advantages, and adjusted its operating and management strategies. Constantly seeking new changes, this period can provide a reference for the tea industry in Taiwan.

The purpose of this thesis was to apply a new marketing method to promote Pu-Erh tea in Taiwan. The head of this study ran a business for selling watches and jewelry. These years, he expanded his career to tea beverage. Since the tea industry in Taiwan had been quite mature and the head was also very interested in it, he devoted himself to an in-depth study of the origin of the ancient tree tea through commercial network. Currently the head himself had been to Yunnan province, China, to study ancient tree tea and the planting environment of the wild tea. He cooperated with the local farmers and tea business to produce various tea products and attempted to develop all kinds of tea packaging. In the future, the head will put more efforts to supply leisure activities related to Pu-Erh tea for people to participate in and make his enterprises to sustainable development. In view of this, this research uses the data by doing Literature Review and Field Research Methods to do Michael Porter’s Five Forces Analysis and Competitive Profile Matrix(CPM)in order to build a new business model of leisure management. The study findings may serve as a guide for further research on promotion of Pu-Erh tea industry. The research results are summarized as follows: (a) Regardless of the against strength of market players, the bargaining capacity of buyers, the bargaining capacity of dealers, the threats of potential entrants, and the threat of alternative products, Pu-Erh tea industry in Taiwan doesn’t feel much pressure from them; (b) As far as the competition is concerned, Pu-Erh ripe tea has gone beyond Pu-Erh unfermented tea. The head hopes that in the very near future he will be able to do cross industry cooperation with large enterprises and develop experience tourism; (c) The head of this study has always upheld the enthusiasm to serve his customers since he started his watches and jewelry industry. Except for the sale of tea, the head will continuously incorporate the concept of leisure agriculture and the cultural experience tourism to enhance operational efficiency.

Abstract:
Turfgrasses are unique in their capability of tolerating foot traffic and physical wear, while still remaining functional and aesthetically pleasing. Fungal disease represents one of the most common limiting factors in managing turf for economical purposes. Dollar spot (Sclerotinia homoeocarpa F.T. Bennett) represent one of the most common and persistent fungal diseases of turf grasses here in the Maritime Provinces. The results demonstrated the potential of compost tea (CT) to negate the harmful effects of the fungal toxic metabolite produced during a dollar spot infection, as well the teas showed to increase the activity of defense enzymes as compared to the control. The field study showed the potential for mink compost tea (M-CT) to control disease but its efficacy was site specific and quite variable. Finally the teas were determined to be quite consistent in composition and four secondary metabolites were determined to be present in the teas.

To improve and maintain the tea industry, the Taiwanese tea industry should build their brand images, start advertising and prompting these brand images to gain international attention and continue producing high quality products to satisfy customers’ various demands. With regard to the tea brand management, it was now that Mr. Lee Rei-Ho decided to put a name to his products and TenRen brand was founded. In addition, Mr. Lee only used the most developed equipment and machinery and was able to standardize a high quality tea. With the brand name, TenRen group began working on marketing strategies such as attractive packaging and product information. With these strategies, he built a good image on his company and also changed consumer’s conventional thoughts on tea.

According to annual statistical report published by Council of Agriculture, the production output of primarily processed tea products alone had reached up to 68 billion NTD each year. Therefore, the significance of tea products should not be underestimated in the global market.

Recent years have seen several food safety crises in Taiwan. For example, 2004 saw the famous tea brand “Ten Ren” inspected and found to contain the forbidden pesticide “Bromopropylate”. The incident showed that the institution of tea safety regulation in Taiwan had some defects. This study examines what the Council of Agriculture and other related institutions do to regulate the safety of tea in Taiwan and considers the existing circumstances of tea safety regulation in Taiwan through a review of the literature and in-depth interviews. The tea safety-related institutions in Taiwan include The Council of Agriculture, Tea Research and Extension Station, local governments and The National Farmers’ Association. The results of this study demonstrate that problems exist in the tea industry in Taiwan, such as industry guidance, the production process, the execution of tea safety tests and the penalties for violations. This study suggests that the Council of Agriculture and the Ministry of Health and Welfare should define the duty on tea safety regulation, and the Council of Agriculture should establish an independent institution responsible for the inspection of agricultural products and illegal processing. Moreover, the Council of Agriculture should strengthen education for farmers, teach them to use pesticides correctly and help farmers and tea dealers to establish their own tea brands while implementing high quality requirements to improve the overall quality of tea in Taiwan.
