Knowledge Management in the light of Resource-Based View, Resource Dependence View, and Population Ecology View

The paper aims to study Knowledge Management (KM) in the light of three theoretical frameworks, Resource-based View (RBV), Resource Dependence view (RDT) and Population ecology of the organizations. The paper is divided into four parts. In the first part, Knowledge Management is defined and described, the knowledge management process is defined, and the Knowledge management capability of the organizations is discussed. In the second part, knowledge management is discussed from the viewpoint of the Resource-based view of the organizations, Resource-based view from its origin is discussed and then knowledge management is viewed from the RBV perspective. In the third part, the Resource dependence view (RDT) is discussed and knowledge management is viewed from the RDT perspective. In the fourth part, the Population ecology of the organizations is discussed from its origin to present, and KM is viewed from the ecological perspective. The conclusion is drawn based on these three perspectives, that how these three perspectives view Knowledge management, how they make difference in their approaches and what is the basis, these three perspectives separately provide to the knowledge management construct or the field. Knowledge management is the basic resource as required by organizations to get competitiveness as per the RBV perspective. Organizations highly depend on their experienced employees and their structures to get sustainability as per the perspective of RDT. If the organizations do not make considerable efforts for knowledge management they become a victim to Immortality as per the perspective of the Population ecology of the organizations

Effect of Aggressive & Conservative Working Capital Management Policy on Performance of Scheduled Commercial Banks of Pakistan

This study examine the impact of working capital management and its policies (investment and financing) on the performance of the scheduled commercial banks listed in PSE(Pakistan Stock Exchange) for the time period of 2009-2013. The performance of the banking sector have been determined with return on asset (ROA), return on equity (ROE) and cash to cash equivalent (CCE).

Financial leverage and size of the bank have been used as control variables. The results revealed from the selected 30 commercial banks as sample that there is a negative relationship between CA/TA, CL/TA and CCC with ROA and ROE. There is a significant positive relationship between CA/TA and CCE, however, its relativity with CL/TA and CCC is insignificant. The control variables show significant positive relationships with ROA and ROE and significant negative relationships with CCE. Whereas leverage shows insignificant relationship with ROA, ROE and CCE. Keywords: Working Capital Management, scheduled commercial banks, aggressive working capital policy, conservative working capital policy

The dynamic role of film and drama industry, green innovation towards the sustainable environment in China: fresh insight from NARDL approach

The ongoing climate changes have put forth various challenges for each industry to achieve their sustainable environmental goals, in an orderly manner. Like the other extensively growing industries, China’s Film and Drama industries are responsible for contributing effectively toward a sustainable environment. In order to validate the same, this study has applied the Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NARDL) technique, so as to identify the asymmetric association among the Film and Drama Industry, green innovation, and sustainable environment. The quarterly time-series data of the variables is assessed from January 2000 to December 2019. The outcomes of the study have revealed that the appreciation in the Film and Drama stock prices tends to increase the CO2 emissions. Whereas, the depreciation of the Film and Drama stock prices improves the efforts towards a sustainable environment. On the other hand, the increase in green innovation tends to have an adverse impact on environmental degradation, while the decline in green innovation tends to increase the carbon emissions. In order to handle the grievous problem of environmental degradation, caused by the Film and Drama industry of China, this study suggests that adopting green practices in Film and Drama making, such as green filming, the use of hybrid vehicles, LED lights, and solar generator supplies, and perhaps Computer-Generated Imagery sets will ultimately contribute towards the improvement of the quality of the environment

The sustainable potential of efficient air-transportation industry and green innovation in realising environmental sustainability in G7 countries

Air transportation has a deep impact on environmental degradation due to the higher fossil fuel consumption. On the other hand, this industry also embraces the highest innovation that may alter its environmental consequences. However, there is a dearth of empirical evidence that explores the impact of air transportation and eco-innovation on environmental quality. Therefore, this study is a pioneering attempt to examine the role of air-transportation and eco-innovation in reducing environmental degradation in G7 countries using annual data from 1990 to 2019. In doing so, we employed various advance econometric approaches to handle issues arises from panel data such as Pesaran (2007) and Bai and Carrion-I-Silvestre (2009) used to examine the presence of unit root, cross-sectional dependency checked through Pesaran (2015) test, and for parameters heterogeneity through Pesaran and Yamagata (2008). Moreover, the Westerlund and Edgerton (2008) test and Cross Sectional Augmented ARDL were employed to analyse the long run and short run association among variables. The overall results show that air transportation and eco-innovation play an important role in abating environmental deterioration. Air transportation is negatively correlated with carbon emission and PM2.5 exposure (air quality) due to the improved technical structure of aircraft engines and the use of mixed ration or alternative aviation fuels. These results provide valuable suggestions for all stakeholders
