Governmental implementation of information and communication technology at the local level: Digital co‐production during a crisis

AbstractThe rapid expansion of volunteerism, especially during COVID‐19, requires efficient organisation of citizen volunteers, thus leading professionals to utilise information and communication technology (ICT) as an enabling tool for interaction and coordination. This study focuses on professionals’ perspectives at the local level regarding governmental steps towards digitalisation and its application in volunteer co‐production. The policy implementation approach was used through in‐depth interviews with 19 local coordinators in Israel during the COVID‐19 crisis. This study found that, while central government invested efforts in training, guidance, and ICT support for professionals, the implementation of digital technologies was not successful at the local level. This highlights the need for digital platforms for volunteer coordination to be be tailored to specific cultural characteristics and local contexts. Neglected but important factors in ICT implementation were identified, including intra‐organisational dynamics, the local community, and authority. By addressing these contextual factors and adopting a more inclusive and context‐sensitive approach, digital platforms can better support local volunteer coordination efforts.Points for practitioners Adopt a holistic approach to digitalisation: Senior‐level administrators in central government should adopt a holistic approach to digitalisation, one that accounts for local contexts—cultural characteristics and collaborative governance structures. This approach should involve coordinators in the development process, together with other stakeholders involved in co‐production. Focus on user‐centric platform design and implementation: To ensure usability and acceptance among coordinators, practitioners should prioritise a user‐centric approach to platform design and implementation. This entails constructing intuitive, user‐friendly platforms, meeting the needs of the coordinators involved in the digitalisation process. Address organisational characteristics and overcome barriers: Practitioners should recognise municipal organisational characteristics, thus obviating potential barriers to digital technology implementation. This includes such factors as status and professional position within the municipality, securing bureaucratic commitment, and overcoming governmental bureaucracy or a lack of leadership.

AI-Powered Information Governance: Balancing Automation and Human Oversight for Optimal Organization Productivity

This study employs a mixed-methods approach to examine the optimal balance between AI-powered automation and human oversight in information governance frameworks, aiming to enhance organizational productivity, efficiency, and compliance. Quantitative data collected from 384 respondents were analyzed using Pearson correlation, regression models, and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results reveal strong positive correlations between AI automation levels and both organization size (r = 0.55, p < .01) and AI adoption duration (r = 0.62, p < .01). Regression analysis indicates that higher levels of AI automation significantly improve error reduction (β = 1.12, p < .001) and compliance (β = 1.05, p < .001), especially in larger organizations with longer AI adoption periods. SEM findings highlight that human oversight positively impacts error reduction (β = 0.65, p < .001) and compliance improvement (β = 0.72, p < .001), and the interaction between human oversight and AI automation further enhances these outcomes (error reduction: β = 0.32, p < .001; compliance improvement: β = 0.35, p < .001). The qualitative analysis, involving thematic extraction from industry reports, reveals ethical challenges such as data quality issues, algorithmic bias, and privacy concerns. Hence, it is necessary to integrate human oversight to ensure ethical standards and build stakeholder trust in AI-driven systems. The study concludes with practical recommendations for organizations: establishing transparent AI governance frameworks, investing in continuous training for employees, and regularly auditing AI processes to mitigate risks. By addressing both the technological and ethical dimensions, organizations can implement AI-powered information governance that not only boosts productivity and efficiency but also ensures compliance and ethical integrity.

Exploring worker subjectivity: shaping industrial and organizational psychology in post-apartheid South Africa

This article critically evaluates the role of industrial–organizational psychology in post-apartheid South Africa, advocating for a transformative framework that addresses the socio-political and historical inequalities in the workplace. The article highlights how industrial–organizational psychology has traditionally focused on organizational efficiency, often aligned with capitalist interests, while overlooking the socio-historical forces shaping worker experiences, particularly related to race, gender, and class. By introducing the concept of worker subjectivity, the article calls for a reimagined industrial–organizational psychology that integrates critical perspectives from psychology and management studies to better understand how workers navigate their identities and agency within broader socio-political structures. The author emphasizes the need to address the emotional and psychological dimensions of worker experiences, especially in the South African context marked by the legacies of colonialism and apartheid. By focusing on worker subjectivity, industrial–organizational psychology can move beyond traditional quantitative methods and engage with the complexities of workplace inequality. This approach aligns industrial–organizational psychology with the broader mission of the Psychological Society of South Africa to promote socially just and inclusive practices. The article also calls for interdisciplinary collaboration and the reformation of industrial–organizational psychology education to better equip practitioners with the tools needed to address the realities of post-apartheid workplaces.

Research on Semantic Driven Urban Pipeline Dataspace Construction Method

Abstract. Urban pipeline data is heterogeneous in multiple sources and rich in data volume, and there are problems such as data conflict and difficult organization and management due to the heterogeneity of multiple sources when accessing the data in large-scale concurrently. To address this problem, this paper proposes a semantics-driven urban pipeline dataspace construction method, which aims to realize the efficient organization of pipeline data. Firstly, this method combines the classification and characteristics of urban pipelines, and expresses the semantic information of pipeline geographic entities from four dimensions: semantic description, spatial location, attribute characteristics and time evolution. Then, the four expression sets are embedded into the dataspace RDF model as predicates, and the associated description mechanism of pipeline geographic entities is established by means of genus classes and so on, so as to construct the pipeline dataspace RDF model. Finally, the model is stored and graphically visualized using neo4j to achieve fast retrieval of data within the pipeline dataspace. The research results show that this method provides a unified expression of pipeline entities, solves the problem of pipeline multi-source heterogeneous data conflict and organization difficulties, and improves the efficiency of multi-source heterogeneous pipeline data organization while ensuring the integrity of pipeline information to the maximum extent.

Dynamics of RNA localization to nuclear speckles are connected to splicing efficiency.

Nuclear speckles are nuclear membraneless organelles in higher eukaryotic cells playing a vital role in gene expression. Using an in situ reverse transcription-based sequencing method, we study nuclear speckle-associated human transcripts. Our data indicate the existence of three gene groups whose transcripts demonstrate different speckle localization properties: stably enriched in nuclear speckles, transiently enriched in speckles at the pre-messenger RNA stage, and not enriched. We find that stably enriched transcripts contain inefficiently excised introns and that disruption of nuclear speckles specifically affects splicing of speckle-enriched transcripts. We further reveal RNA sequence features contributing to transcript speckle localization, indicating a tight interplay between transcript speckle enrichment, genome organization, and splicing efficiency. Collectively, our data highlight a role of nuclear speckles in both co- and posttranscriptional splicing regulation. Last, we show that genes with stably enriched transcripts are over-represented among genes with heat shock-up-regulated intron retention, hinting at a connection between speckle localization and cellular stress response.

The Influence of Transformational Leadership and Organizational Justice on Innovative Work Behavior: the Mediating Role of Psychological Capital and Knowledge Sharing

Innovative work behavior is every Civil Servant (PNS) must have to encourage individuals to produce new thoughts, methods and work processes that can be used to increase organizational efficiency and effectiveness. Research on innovative work behavior for civil servants still needs to be widely researched, especially in developing countries. For this reason, this research aims to identify the influence of transformational leadership, organizational justice, psychological capital, and knowledge sharing on innovative work behavior. Data collection was carried out in a single cross-sectional using purposive sampling. The research sample was obtained from Civil Servants who work at State Institutions of Government in Indonesia. The data was processed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the Partial Least Square SEM (PLS-SEM) with 385 respondents. The results of this study prove a positive and significant relationship between transformational leadership, organizational justice, psychological capital, and knowledge sharing on innovative work behavior. In addition, empirical results show that psychological capital and knowledge sharing can partially mediate the relationship between transformational leadership and organizational justice on innovative work behavior. State Institutions of Government are expected to receive input and suggestions regarding the implementation of leadership and organizational policies so that employees have a positive psychology and a desire to share knowledge and skills so that they can create new ideas as organizational innovations.

Understanding Patient Flow from the Perspectives of Patient Movement Experts

Background: Poor patient flow or patient movement through a healthcare organisation can lead to adverse outcomes for patients and organisational inefficiency. Many hospitals have addressed suboptimal patient flow by increasing resources, such as bed stock and staffing; however, this is an unsustainable approach. In determining the nature of poor patient flow issues, it is important to collect data from healthcare professionals who manage patient flow daily. Doing so provides insights into the current state of patient flow management in its entirety, whilst also helping with the development of sustainable solutions. Methods: Thirteen semi-structured interviews were conducted with healthcare professionals who were directly involved with patient flow at a referring hospital in Tasmania, Australia. Results: Using a thematic analysis method, four major themes were developed. The first major theme was: ‘managing patient flow’ which centered around known and unknown demands on bed availability. The second theme, ‘communication for decisions’, highlighted the essential role of communication in maintaining patient flow. The third theme, ‘tools as enablers and barriers, relates to the number of software programs which can both help and hinder patient flow. The final theme of ‘increasing complexity’ is related to an apparent trend towards greater numbers of patients requiring care of an increasingly specialised nature. Conclusions: The findings of this study provide great insights into patient flow issues, with potential solutions identified to address them.

Data Envelopment Analysis and Models in Healthcare Services: A Review

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a widely used method for measuring efficiency and performance in healthcare services. In this article, we will examine the role of DEA and the models used in the healthcare sector. DEA is a method used to measure the efficiency of units (such as hospitals, clinics) with multiple inputs and outputs. Essentially, data envelopment analysis conducts a performance analysis that shows how units utilize their existing resources and how they can optimize these resources. Units such as hospitals, clinics, and healthcare organizations must deliver more services with limited resources. DEA helps these organizations to use their resources most efficiently. DEA is used to increase operational efficiency, reduce costs, and improve service quality in healthcare services. There are various models available for data envelopment analysis. The most common ones include Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Stochastic Data Envelopment Analysis (SDEA). While DEA is used for measuring efficiency that can be either constant or variable in scale, SDEA considers uncertainties and random effects. There are various advantages and disadvantages. Facilitates efficient use of resources, brings a data-driven approach to the decision-making process and objectively evaluates performance in healthcare services. Disadvantages are data deficiencies or poor quality may pose challenges in some cases and the complexity of the model may complicate the application and interpretation process. Data envelopment analysis in healthcare services is a powerful tool for measuring and improving the efficiency of organizations. However, proper use of data and careful application of the model are essential.

The Impact of Job Crafting Dimensions on Work Engagement Among Nurses: The mediating role of psychological capital

Work significantly influences individual well-being and human growth. Jobs are not solely formulated by companies based on their needs but are also actively modified by the individuals who hold those positions. High-stress professions, such as nursing, highlight how stress levels are influenced by factors like resource availability, patient demands, colleague interactions, and workplace cultural dynamics. Hence, this study investigates the effect of job crafting dimensions on work engagement, and examines psychological capital's mediating role in this relationship. It aims to reveal how job crafting can improve both personal and organizational well-being. This study is a descriptive cross-sectional study. The study was conducted with 348 nurses at Al Dhafra Hospitals in Abu Dhabi, UAE. The analysis utilized in this study was conducted using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) through SmartPLS 4 and SPSS version 27 for descriptive and correlation analysis. The findings demonstrate that the impacts of job crafting dimensions—task crafting, cognitive crafting, and relational crafting—on work engagement and psychological capital are statistically significant. Additionally, the influence of psychological capital on work engagement is statistically significant. Path analysis revealed that psychological capital mediates the interaction between job crafting dimensions and work engagement. These relationships were shown to be statistically significant. This study reinforces the significance of psychological capital and job crafting dimensions as crucial attributes in the workplace. Hence, it advocates for the healthcare industry to consider the implementation of targeted programs aimed at fostering these attributes within nursing teams. Such strategic initiatives are poised to improve individual well-being among nurses, which is expected to result in enhanced organizational efficiency and a notable decrease in turnover rates over time.

МНОГОУРОВНЕВАЯ СИСТЕМА ОБЕСПЕЧЕНИЯ ЭКОНОМИЧЕСКОЙ БЕЗОПАСНОСТИ

Economic security is an integral part of the overall security of the state. It is like the foundation on which the prosperity and stability of the country are built. Economic independence, sustainable development and the well-being of society directly depend on how well our economy is protected from internal and external threats. The efficiency of enterprises and organizations is also closely related to the level of economic security. The article highlights the close relationship between food and economic security of the state. The ability of the agro-industrial complex to provide the population with high-quality and affordable food directly affects the stability of the economy, social cohesion and political independence of the country. The authors note that the balance between domestic production and food imports plays a key role in ensuring food security and allows the state to effectively respond to external challenges.

Navigating conflicting expectations in addressing healthcare scarcity: a q-methodology study on the Dutch National Health Care Institute.

In many European countries, semi-autonomous agencies have been created in health policy to safeguard general public interests. In executing their tasks, these agencies need to deal with conflicting expectations. Particularly avoiding the risk of regulatory capture and aligning with parent ministries are frequently studied challenges, even more so when complex issues such as scarcity are at stake. In this paper, we use q-methodology to provide a thorough overview of the debate regarding the role of an important agency in the Dutch healthcare system; the National Health Care Institute (Zorginstituut Nederland). We conducted 41 q-interviews with agency employees, evaluators, regulatees, ministry employees, health policy experts, members of its advisory committees, and peer agencies. We identify three viewpoints on what the agency should focus on. These are on societally relevant issues, strict package management, and efficient organisation of care. In doing so, our study shows how agencies are pulled in different directions by conflicting expectations. We show that this can be problematic because it complicates a clear role of the agency that allows addressing such issues. We thereby contribute to theories on agencies' complex relations with their external environment such as regulatory capture, tripartism, reflexive regulation, legal boundaries, and stewardship theory.

ПРОБЛЕМИ УПРАВЛІННЯ ПЕРСОНАЛОМ ТОРГОВИХ ПІДПРИЄМСТВ В КРАЇНАХ ЄВРОПЕЙСЬКОГО СОЮЗУ

Personnel management at any enterprise is a complex and multifaceted process. Managers must have deep knowledge and experience in the field of motivation, coordination, staff training, etc., The greatest asset of any organization is its human resources, which ensure the achievement of the company's goals and objectives. It is unfortunate that most companies have neglected the development and management of their main asset, which is human resources. Human resource management is a function in an organization that focuses on hiring, managing, and shaping development directions for people who work in an organization. It is also a strategic and comprehensive approach to managing people, culture and workplace environment. Employee engagement and motivation are critical to the success of any business. Engaged employees are more productive, more committed, and more likely to stay with their employer. In today's fast-paced business environment, it is more important than ever for managers to keep their employees engaged and motivated. The importance of managing human resources lies in the fact that the most important resource of an organization is people, and that the productivity of a significant world lies among them. In order for the management of human resources to have little significant impact on the efficiency of the organization, it is necessary to expand and effectively implement the required set of policies and processes for human resources. The strategic management of human resources is the key, which is significant, as spy workers reach the goals of the organization for additional policies and practices regarding human resources, ie integration into the strategy of human resources. The growing popularity of the promotion of the mechanism of human resource management has encouraged us to do some clear exercises to improve the efficiency of the organization. There have been very few efforts to maintain a connection between the practice of effective human resource management and efficient organization, as it has been carried out in the Ukrainian economy. Today, after the pandemic, the management of the effectiveness of the glasses without precedent changes.

Employee power needs, leadership, and employee organizational commitment: A case study of high‐tech enterprises

AbstractIndustry 4.0 brings opportunities and challenges to organizations. Studies have shown that employees with higher power needs have a higher level of organizational commitment, which is also affected by transactional leadership. However, existing studies lack effective conversion pathways and do not adapt to the new environment of Industry 4.0. From a systematic perspective, this paper covers eight high‐tech fields, such as electronic information, biotechnology, and medicine, and establishes a comprehensive model. We use multi‐level regression analysis and the bootstrap method to explore the transformation path of employee power needs to organizational commitment. The results show that in high‐tech enterprises, employee power needs positively affect out‐of‐role behaviours, and there is also a positive correlation between out‐of‐role behaviour and organizational commitment. In addition, employee out‐of‐role behaviours play mediating roles. Transactional leadership moderates the relationship between out‐of‐role behaviours and organizational commitment. This study explains (1) the driving force of employee power needs on out‐of‐role behaviours and (2) the complexity of changing organizational commitments, and expands the adjustment path of leadership. This study considers the enterprise as a system that helps various departments carry out collaborative actions and produce a synergistic effect, thereby improving the organizational commitment of employees and the overall effectiveness of the enterprise. It is of great significance to the management optimization and leader motivation of high‐tech enterprises, especially Industry 4.0 strategic emerging enterprises. In the future, we can also develop a system for leadership and employee power needs to help organizations analyse organizational commitment to improve organizational efficiency.
