Like Country, Like Church: Administrative Perspectives

Generally, a country’s government, as an umbrella-institution, accommodates state institutions like the judiciary, military, education, and finance and the non-state institutions like the family, church and mosque, among others. Also, the strength or otherwise of a country largely depends on the strength or otherwise of the subordinate institutions and vice versa; hence the popular negative notion of “strong individuals but weak institutions” in developing states like Nigeria. To this end, this paper sought answers to the following questions: Is there a significant relationship between the Nigerian country’s administration and those of its church-institutions? To what extent has the Nigerian country’s administration influenced those of its church-institutions? The data sources for answers to those questions were derived from secondary sources (descriptive method of analysis) as well as Participant Observation Technique (POT). The paper found and concluded that indeed, most organizations/institutions (secular or religious) resemble their host country significantly. The paper therefore recommended among others, that administrators of the Nigerian country should as a matter of utmost importance, take responsibility for the goings-on in religious organizations (church in particular) and urgently move away from their perennial elitist disposition to the populist. This, would not only enhance Jeremy Bentham’s “greatest happiness for the greatest number” in the country but influence religious leaders and their respective organizations to follow suit; not vice versa

변혁적 리더십의 관점에서 본 사울왕의 실패 원인

The purpose of this study is to analyze the cause of King Saul's failure from the perspective of transformational leadership. Prior research mainly summarized their leadership characteristics by finding examples of successful leaders among biblical figures. However, it is necessary to analyze failed leadership in that there are many failed leaders among biblical figures and various perspectives are needed in leadership analysis. For this study, we look at the Bible content, the study that analyzed King Saul from a theology perspective, and the study that deals with transformational leadership from a business administration perspective. Transformational leadership was first conceptualized by Burns (1978) and its constituent factors are charisma, individual consideration, intellectual stimulation, and inspirational motivation (Bass and Avolio, 1994). Saul is splendidly crowned as the first king of Israel by God's choice, but fails to demonstrate leadership and falls. From the perspective of transformational leadership, King Saul has the following problems. (1) Saul lacked charisma, such as making his subordinates tremble and not being able to role models on his own (1 Sam 13:6-9). (2) Saul lacked individualized consideration, such as not allowing the soldiers to eat food in the war against the Philistines (1 Sam 14:24). (3) Saul was unable to intellectually stimulate his subordinates to solve problems when Goliath insulted God (1 Sam 17:1-16). (4) Saul was insufficient to be an inspirational motivation through a sharing vision(1 Sam 17:1-16).

Migration Governance from an Institutional Perspective: An Index for “Good” Migration Governance

The widespread socio-economic effects of migration make migration governance critical from an administrative and institutional perspective. Based on good governance principles, this article develops an Index for Good Migration Governance (IGMG). For this purpose, five principles of good governance (effectiveness, transparency, accountability, participation and legal framework) were selected. These principles are contained in documents published by the World Bank, the United Nations or the International Monetary Fund, which have made significant contributions to the development of good governance principles. The index is calculated using the methodology used by the European Commission in business and consumer surveys. Unlike the migration indexes developed in the past, IGMG builds on the selected principles of good governance from an institutional perspective and focuses on institutional structures related to migration governance. IGMG aims to raise the awareness of organizations on migration policies and practices and enable them to take the necessary steps for good migration governance.

Repository (R)evolution: Metadata, Interoperability, and Sustainability

Introduction: Successfully managing an open-access repository requires constant attention to user community priorities in order to inform the development or selection of a platform that fulfills constantly evolving functional demands in an increasingly complex operational environment. This paper uses AgEcon Search (AES) as an example of the way that varying platforms address the metadata and other platform needs of a repository. AES is a successful subject repository with an international scope that has resided on several different platforms in its 25-year lifespan. Elements and Considerations: Critical among the technical requirements of a repository is interoperability with other information sources and the ability to accommodate and describe different types of objects, including data. Experienced in the use of easy and widely used Dublin Core (DC), as well as Machine-Readable Cataloging 21 (MARC 21)-based repository platforms, we discuss both metadata schemas from administrative and user perspectives. Reconsidering underlying metadata issues might positively impact both technical and administrative issues that are currently restricting the development of robust, interoperable systems. As managers of AES, we are uniquely placed to discuss both technical and sustainability issues. Conclusions: Although many institutional and subject repositories are on platforms that use DC for their metadata, other options are available. MARC, the well-established library standard, can provide the wide range of fields needed to fully and accurately describe the variety of document and data types that are included in repositories.

The influence of servant leadership on athletic performance: a self-determination theory perspective

PurposeTo give a full understanding of how servant leadership impacts organizational performance and needs satisfaction of followers, two unique populations were sampled (i.e. college athletic administrators and coaches) to weigh the importance of leadership on different elements of a sports organization. The purpose for this two-sample design was to enhance the external validity of the results through replication and convergence of conclusions.Design/methodology/approachThis study utilized a two-sample structure that consisted of intercollegiate coaches (N = 223) and administrative staff members (N = 176) perceptions of their leader’s servant leadership to better understand its influence on sport organizational performance. From the study’s hypotheses, data were collated and subjected to correlation and step-wise regression analysis.FindingsThe results indicate a relationship between servant leadership and organizational performance from both a sport coach and administrative follower perspective. Furthermore, in the administration sample, servant leadership’s relationship with organizational performance was mediated by competency. This study also expands upon the literature by demonstrating that servant leadership had a positive impact on organizational performance beyond tenure effects.Practical implicationsFor an athletic director, implementing behaviors from servant leadership could be valuable tools to enhance the performances of the teams within intercollegiate athletic departments.Originality/valueThe results indicate a relationship between servant leadership and organizational performance from both a sport coach and administrative follower perspective.

School administrators’ perceptions and challenges in the implementation of general secondary school geography curriculum

This study aimed to examine the implementation of the geography curriculum, particularly from the perspective of school administrators. The research explores the perceptions and challenges these administrators face in implementing the general secondary school Geography curriculum in Ethiopia, focusing specifically on the Sidama Regional State. The study employed qualitative research methods, gathering data from 11 purposefully selected respondents, including principals, department heads, and supervisors from six general secondary schools. In addition to interviews and observations, supplementary document analysis provided further insights into the state of curriculum implementation. The findings reveal that the implementation of the geography curriculum is generally ineffective. A key issue is the limited familiarity of administrators with the curriculum content, along with their lack of active engagement in the process. This lack of engagement significantly affects the overall effectiveness of curriculum delivery. The study also found that professional development opportunities for geography teachers are inadequate, which hinders efforts to enhance teaching quality and effectiveness. Among the main challenges identified were low motivation among educators, limited time for lesson preparation, and a predominant reliance on traditional lecture-based methods rather than student-centred instructional approaches. Additionally, language inconsistencies were evident, particularly with English usage deviating from national guidelines, which in turn impacted the performance of both teachers and students. The study also noted a significant scarcity of resources, including a lack of teaching materials and professional development opportunities, which further hindered effective curriculum implementation. Considering these findings, the study emphasizes the need for enhanced teacher training, improved resource allocation, and strategic support to create a more conducive learning environment. The implications of these findings are significant for policymakers, educational leaders, and curriculum developers, suggesting critical measures to strengthen curriculum delivery and improve educational outcomes in Ethiopian secondary schools.

Informing implementation and dissemination of a specialized primary care medical home for patients with serious mental illness: Clinician and administrator perspectives.

People with serious mental illness (SMI) have lower rates of use of preventative medical services and higher rates of mortality compared to the general population. Research shows that specialized primary care medical homes improve the health care of patients with SMI and are feasible to implement, safe, and more effective than usual care. However, specialized medical homes remain uncommon and model dissemination limited. As part of a controlled trial assessing an SMI-specialized medical home, we examined clinician and administrator perspectives regarding specialized versus mainstream primary care and identified ways to enhance the scale-up of a specialized primary care model for future dissemination. We conducted semistructured interviews with clinicians and administrators at three sites prior to the implementation of an SMI-specialized primary care medical home (n = 26) and at 1-year follow-up (n = 24); one site implemented the intervention, and two sites served as controls. Interviews captured service design features that affected the quality of care provided; contextual factors that supported or impeded medical home implementation; and knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding the care of patients with SMI. Interviews were transcribed and coded. Clinicians and administrators described SMI-specialized primary care medical homes as advancing care coordination and outcomes for patients with SMI. Stakeholders identified elements of a specialized medical home that they viewed as superior to usual care, including having a holistic picture of patients' needs and greater care coordination. However, to enable scale-up, efforts are needed to increase staffing on care teams, develop robust clinician onboarding or training, and ensure close coordination with mental health care providers.

The Responsibilities of Land Deed Officials in Cases of Legally Null and Void Sale Agreements

The Land Deed Official (PPAT) often finds themselves as the defendant in legal cases. One notable example is the decision from the Makassar District Court No. 126/Pdt.G/2019/PN Mks. The purpose of this research is to analyze the responsibilities of the Land Deed Official (PPAT) when the deed they have prepared is declared null and void by law. This study employs a normative legal research approach, utilizing both legislative and case study methods. The legal materials for this research consist of primary legal materials and secondary legal materials, which will be analyzed using systematic interpretation and grammatical interpretation techniques. The findings indicate that the PPAT, as a public official responsible for drafting the Sale and Purchase Deed in Decision No. 126/Pdt.G/2019/PN Mks, must be accountable for the deed they create from an administrative perspective. This deed was declared null and void due to the failure to meet the contractual elements; consequently, the PPAT faced only administrative sanctions based on the ruling.
