The Proposed Relationship connecting e-HRM adoption, Performance Management System and Effective Decision making in Higher Educational Institutions in Nigeria.
Before any meaningful advancement is achieved, or progress attained, there has to be a sound enlightenment / education as the much needed weapon to triumph. If there is proper education, the chances are very high that actions will be free from the menace of ignorance. Formal education flows from a body of institutions which are run and managed by experts whose decisions determine the success or otherwise of those institutions. Suffice is to say therefore that all organizations including the higher educational institutions function as products of effective decision-making. The aim of this paper is to review related empirical literatures and highlight the need to investigate the impact of e-human resource management (e-HRM)) adoption on performance management system (PMS) and effective decision making in higher educational institutions in Nigeria. Towards the end of the paper, a conceptual model depicting the relationships between E-HRM adoption, performance management system and effective decision making will be offered. Keywords: E-HRM, performance management system, effective decision makin

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES AND CORPORATE PERFORMANCE: A CRITICAL REVIEW
the link between the environmental issues of the corporations and their economic performance and competitiveness has became one of the most popular issues to be studied in the profession. However, previous studies that have attempted to relate environmental issues to economic performance have often led to conflicting results. This paper reviewed the previous environmental literature and suggested that the inconsistency is due to the absence of clear framework that explain what actually constitutes environmental practices and how their outcomes are to be determined and evaluated. Therefore, it becomes difficult to identify general relationships between different indicators of environment and economic performance. The paper concluded that there is a lack of study investigating the relationship between disaggregated environmental practices, corporate environmental performance, and environmentally related competitiveness. Key words: environmental practices, corporate environmental performance, competitiveness, resource-based view theory
