    Universities and different higher education instructions in Bahrain are multicultural in nature. In this context, cultural intelligence (CQ) is a tool that can increase an individual’s ability to interact with people outside their culture. This study aims to provide a shred of empirical evidence on the value of using a coherent organizational framework of Cultural Intelligence to pursue tasks effectively in diverse contexts. Hence, a qualitative research design was used to achieve the research objectives. The study employs in-depth Interviews with 72 participants from different higher education instructions in Bahrain Company to collect the required data for this research effort. The open-ended qualitative questions have enabled participants to provide supplementary evidence around cultural intelligence and were valid for interpretation. This study provides an understanding of how individuals perform in multicultural environments, which can be helpful to managers in formulating new motivational strategies to enhance employee performance in higher education. The results show significant characteristics that predict employees ability to function effectively in a multicultural work environment. These findings have implications for different higher education instructions in Bahrain and other companies looking for survival and growth in the global marketplace. Given the research findings, senior leaders of additional higher education instructions in Bahrain should prioritize CQ, define and develop its goals, and value employees with high CQ to improve organizational performance in international assignments

    This article proposes a nonlinear mental health evaluation model after combining the nonlinear finite element equation with the mental health education of teachers in colleges and universities. We take the “self-concept” in psychology as an order parameter to judge mental health. At the same time, logical thinking is used to guide college teachers to rethink the process of their psychological activities. Research has found that the nature of human psychology is nonlinear. It is feasible to use nonlinear analysis methods to improve the status quo of original data analysis in psychological and behavioral control research

    Under the condition of social and economic growth rate continues to slow down, enterprises put forward environmental protection policies from the perspective of long-term development of resource construction, and enterprises will face more and more competitive pressure. If an enterprise wants to break through its own development bottleneck and become one of the enterprises drafting national standards in the industry, it must have a comprehensive understanding of its financial strategy and performance management program. This paper studies using the principal component analysis (pca), after consulting relevant financial performance evaluation literature, based on an enterprise’s financial performance data for principal component analysis, will have access to financial performance evaluation results ranking and scoring, not only can be found that there were problems, also will use modern management theory to replace the traditional financial performance evaluation methods, Give priority to scientific and comprehensive financial indicators for performance evaluation, so as to put forward effective solutions to help enterprises to clarify their own competitive pressure and market positioning

    This paper uses nonlinear differential equations to establish a relationship model between enrollment, education, and employment in vocational education. In this paper, the local stability of the vocational education system is analyzed utilizing nonlinear differential theory and numerical simulation. At the same time, we carried out a numerical simulation of the system’s dynamic behavior. Through numerical simulation research, it is found that the model has peculiar nonlinear behavior and dynamic characteristics when its parameters take some specific values. Finally, we get the critical condition of the stability of the vocational education system according to the model established in the article

    In order to have a more in-depth understanding of the current classroom efficiency and quality of physical education classes, the author uses the extreme difference method to analyze the teaching quality of physical education. Train the network with a large number of classified samples, so that the network system with analysis ability can objectively evaluate the teaching quality of teachers; The Labview software tool is used to solve the calculations of the sigmoid function, the gradient descent method (δ learning rule), and the mean square error used in the algorithm, so that the constructed model can realize self-learning and evaluation functions. We designed an education quality evaluation model for the characteristics of education quality evaluation. Based on previous research and practice, we have compiled an evaluation index system that includes 3 primary indicators and 10 secondary indicators. As a result of conducting experiments based on this index system and the quality evaluation model of education, it became clear that this model is effective

    Under the background of the marketization of agricultural products, the lack of farmers’ risk analysis mechanism has resulted in a structural imbalance between the supply and demand of funds in rural areas. The increase of the rural economy is significant to social development and stability. Then the article uses the ordered Probit model to carry out statistical regression analysis on the rural economic samples. The study found that the lack of supply institutions, the incompatibility of loan supply and demand, and the single type of insurance caused the development of the rural economy to be limited

    During the past four decades, privatization of state owned enterprises (SOEs) has become an essential phenomenon in both developed and developing countries. Although several studies have offered some evidence for developing countries, the Middle East experience has remained unexplored. This study tries to fill this gap by extending the literature on developing countries to the specific context of the Middle East region in general, and Egypt in particular. An attempt is also made to assess whether privatization in Egypt has achieved its objectives in terms of improved financial and operating performance following the privatization programme. Egypt is the focus of the study due to its vast privatization experience as compared with other countries. In the early 1990s Egypt–as an emerging economy-introduced a series of major economic reforms.  A key element of these reforms involved the privatization of state owned enterprises and this paper compares the pre- and post-privatization financial and operating performance of 60 Egyptian companies that had been privatized by 2017.  Our results reveal that when performance in the 3 years following privatization is compared with performance in the 3 years prior to privatization then overall there is clear evidence of increases in real sales, profitability, operating efficiency, capital investment and dividend payments and decreases in debt levels and employment levels
