COMPETITIVE MODEL PROPOSAL FOR THE AZERBAIJAN WINE INDUSTRY: TALENT-BASED ORGANIZATIONAL MODEL

The main aim of this study is to develop a talent-based model proposition in line with the resource-based approach by assessing the strategic position of Azerbaijan's wine industry, which is globally recognized as an important wine producing country. It is noted that in the context of very important changes and events taking place in the world today, the phenomenon of competition expresses competition in all spheres of life and day by day increases its intensity and challenges modern business. The article widely uses methods of comparative analysis of the experience of foreign countries, analysis of statistical dynamics, and in-depth analyzes of economic growth in a competitive environment. The author notes that in order for businesses to compete and, moreover, achieve sustainable competitive advantage, they need to understand that the basis of competition has changed, and accordingly everyone must reconsider their approaches and define a new road map for themselves as strategic support with new methods in management. This new understanding of strategy allows companies to be unique, inimitable and responsive to define their strategy and prepare action plans to meet changing customer needs, create customer value and provide quality and low-cost products and services. The author emphasizes that businesses now realize that it is impossible to compete and survive using old methods. It is noted that the resource-based view is used as a new approach, which involves the harmonization of resources and business capabilities with their external environment to produce unique products and services. Azerbaijani wine industry businesses that can redefine their boundaries and develop external relationships using a talent-based model can expand their reach and influence to new groups of employees and entrepreneurs. In this way, Azerbaijani wine industry enterprises can create great new opportunities and offer these groups opportunities to participate in the global economy. This perspective, which sheds light on the dominant organizational logic of powerful players who influence or share the behavior of others, includes foreign competitors, suppliers and employees in the global economy. In this regard, it is very important for the Azerbaijani wine industry to have a good understanding of the interaction between global and local dynamics.

The Effect of Online Scenario Based Learning on English Writing Motivation and Self-Efficacy Beliefs of University Students

The aim of this research is to investigate the impact of online scenario-based English writing instruction on the motivation for English writing and self-efficacy beliefs among university students. The research, conducted as action research, involved a group of 14 students enrolled in the English preparatory program at a state university in the Marmara Region of Türkiye during the fall semester of the 2020-2021 academic year. Eight scenario activities were prepared as part of the online scenario-based English writing instruction. Action plans were developed to enhance students’ writing motivation and self-efficacy beliefs. The implementation of the prepared action plans consisted of four cycles and eight weeks. To collect data, the “English Writing Motivation Scale” and the “English Paragraph Writing Self-Efficacy Scale” were used. Dependent groups t-test was applied to compare the mean scores on the same sample group, and Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used when the data did not exhibit a normal distribution. Quantitative analysis revealed a significant increase in students’ intrinsic motivation to write in English following the online scenario-based English writing instruction. Additionally, it was observed that online scenario-based writing instruction enhanced students’ self-efficacy beliefs in writing in English. These promising results suggest the incorporation of online scenario-based writing activities in English writing instruction.

Salmonids in hot water: An unprecedented warm‐water event in Labrador, a subarctic region of Canada

AbstractUnprecedented warm river temperatures in July 2023 in Labrador, a subarctic region of Canada, were the highest since monitoring began (1994–2023) and ranged from 19.4°C (Hunt River) to 22.5°C (Eagle River). Incipient lethal water temperatures were exceeded for adult Atlantic salmon and brook trout (≥25°C) on 14 days in five of seven rivers and Arctic charr (≥24°C) on 17 days in six of seven rivers. Consequently, Labrador had the greatest number of angling restrictions and closures in 2023. Recent warming serves as a warning to fishery managers of regions historically unaffected by heat waves of the need to prepare action plans that mitigate the effects of a warming climate on fishes.

A Review on the Process of Greenhouse Gas Inventory Preparation and Proposed Mitigation Measures for Reducing Carbon Footprint

Greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere, causing the Earth’s surface temperature to rise. The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, perfluorocarbons, hydrofluorocarbons, and sulfur hexafluoride. Human activities are increasing greenhouse gas concentrations rapidly, which is causing global climate change. Global climate change is increasing environmental and public health problems. To reduce greenhouse gas emissions, it is necessary to identify where the emissions are coming from, develop a plan to reduce them, and then implement and monitor the plan to ensure that emissions are actually reduced. Anthropogenic global climate change has large and increasingly adverse economic effects. Cities emit the most greenhouse gas due to fossil fuel burning and power usage. The four major greenhouse gas emitters are energy, transportation, waste management, and urban land use sectors. Organizations should prepare action plans to lower their greenhouse gas emissions and stop the worst consequences of climate change. These action plans require companies and local authorities to submit their greenhouse gas emissions reports on a yearly basis. A greenhouse gas emissions management system includes several processes and tools created by organizations to understand, measure, monitor, report, and validate their greenhouse gas emissions. Two of the most widely adapted frameworks for greenhouse gases inventory reporting are ISO 14064 and the greenhouse gas protocol. This review paper aims to identify some of the key points of GHG inventory preparation and mitigation strategies.

The Relationship Between Dimensions of the Family Quality Index Provincial Level Throughout Indonesia in 2021

The Family Quality Index (IKK) measures the success of family development in Indonesia, and can be used as a basis for planning and indicators of successful family development at the central, provincial/regional, and regency/city levels. The objectives of the study were to analyze (1) the Cronbach’s alpha reliability test and the content validity of IKK indicators, (2) the achievements of IKK at the provincial and national levels, and (3) the relationship between indicators and dimensions of IKK. The research method is a quantitative analysis of BPS secondary data for 2021. Cronbach’s alpha was 0.50, and content validity was between 0.03 and 0.77. The provincial IKK score in 2021 range from 65.16 to 76.80, with a national achievement score of 73.43. Three provinces were included in category 3, namely "quality of gender-responsive families" and 31 other provinces were included in category 2, namely "quality of sufficiently gender-responsive families.” There were positive relationships between the dimensions of structural legality and socio-psychological resilience and between the dimensions of structural legality and sociocultural resilience. Furthermore, there were positive relationships between the dimensions of physical resilience and economic resilience, and between the dimensions of physical resilience and sociocultural resilience. The research implications showed that the potential problems of families at the provincial level were used as inputs in preparing action plans at the national and provincial levels.

Učestalost kontrolnih pregleda i kliničkih postupaka kod onkoloških pacijenata prije i za vrijeme pandemije bolesti Covid-19 u klinici za ženske bolesti i porode KBC-a Zagreb

Introduction. At the end of 2019, an epidemic caused by a coronavirus broke out in China. A certain number of female cancer patients neglected their regular oncology treatment during the pandemic, at first because of quarantine, and later due to their incompetence in applying online medicine. The majority of cancer patients demand permanent care and diagnostic/therapeutic procedures. The coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) led to numerous check-up cancellations and surgery postponements in healthcare, yet it is unknown to what extent it has affected the healthcare of female cancer patients. Aim. To determine the frequency of check-ups and clinical procedures that female cancer patients underwent prior to and during the coronavirus (COVID-19) epidemic. Methods. Gathering data on the number of clinical procedures in cancer patients was conducted through the hospital information system (BIS) of the Department of Gynaecology and Obstetrics of KBC Zagreb in the period of two years. The study group included female cancer patients during one year of the pandemic (March 11, 2020 to March 11, 2021), and the control group consisted of female cancer patients during the period of one year preceding the pandemic.Results. In the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of KBC Zagreb there were less laparoscopic procedures (LPSC) in 2020 than in 2019, with 24.6% less procedures administered in 2020. There were also fewer other gynaecological procedures in 2020, however, the difference was not statistically significant p>0.05. In the same period in Zagreb in 2020 there were 13.9% fewer patients treated for cancer than in 2019. Also in 2020, there were statistically significantly fewer patients treated throughout Croatia p<0.001, with a decrease of 16.3%.Conclusion. All aspects of healthcare, from diagnostics and therapy to research, have been distressed by the emergence of COVID-19. During the crisis caused by this disease, healthcare workers dealt with the problem of thorough and rapid reorganisation of the system, not only with the purpose of treating newly infected patients, but also in trying to maintain the quality of healthcare for cancer patients. The adjustment of the healthcare system with timely organisation in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology managed to preserve the level of quality healthcare for its female cancer patients. For the future it would be necessary to prepare action plans which will assure adequate health care service without decreasing number of examinations.

So it can be concluded that the STEAM learning model can be implemented in class IV in mathematics.

Stakeholders’ Involvement and School Leadership for Effective Implementation of Strategic Planning

In Kenya, school development planning for public schools involves determining school needs, prioritizing school needs, preparing action plans, implementing and monitoring the plans. Specifically, public schools in Mbeere -North sub-county have always adopted strategic plans as directed by the Ministry of Education. However, schools continue experiencing dismal performance and poor management. Thus, the study assessed the influence of school dynamics in the implementation of strategic plans in public secondary schools in Mbeere North Sub- County, Embu County. The study was guided by two research questions; 1. What is the influence of stakeholder involvement on the implementation of strategic planning? 2. How does the principal’s leadership influence the implementation of strategic planning? The study adopted a mixed method approach with an explanatory sequential research design. The study used stratified sampling to select 341 respondents. Questionnaires were used to collect data from Board of Management members, teachers and students whereas interview guides were used to collect data from principals, the Sub-County Director of Education and the Quality Assurance Officer. Validity was established through expert judgement. Reliability was determined using test-retest technique. Qualitative data was analyzed thematically while quantitative data analyzed using descriptive statistics. The study found that secondary schools in Mbeere North Sub- County had long term strategic planning, which if properly implemented, would benefit the stakeholders in schools. The study established that some principals included the stakeholders in the implementation of strategic planning. The study found that effective leadership in strategic planning play the role of making good planning, providing better awareness of needs

The Current Status of Forest Residues and Disposal Machinery in Turkiye

The term "cutting residue" is a widely used term in Turkey, which refers to the leftover pieces of logs in the forest after cutting, except for the logs. As of yet, there is no specific expression and explanation for the term "slash" in Turkish forestry. Turkey carries out intensive forestry activities based on industrial wood production, primarily in mature stands and damaged after disasters such as fire or storm fall. Products that do not carry industrial woodiness in the stand, such as branches, roots, and tips that are not suitable for industrial production, are considered firewood and used for energy production or left in the stand. As a result, it is observed that the collected cutting residues from the fields that are sufficient in terms of benefit and cost is burned to generate electricity in electricity generation stations. Due to the demand for forest-based wood raw materials in recent years, some domestic companies have begun converting thick branches into industrial products such as paper and chipboard production. Additionally, some studies have been conducted to reduce transportation costs in bringing cutting residues to the economy, focusing on the storage and processing of forest cutting residues on the landing sites. In this regard, small-scale chipping machines have been produced by the domestic industry. Therefore, slash disposal and mechanization have a very limited place in Turkish forestry. Decision makers need to prepare action plans in this regard and provide support to joint research projects with academic units.

Professionalization Pathways for School Leaders Examined: The Influence of Organizational and Didactic Factors and Their Interplay on Triggering Concrete Actions in School Development

It is believed that school leadership contributes to efficiency and equity in school performance. Therefore, it is essential that professionalization initiatives for school leaders foster learning and development processes towards effective leadership. Based on a literature review, several factors appear to facilitate the influence of professionalization programs on learning outcomes of school leaders but empirical research on real effects and on explanatory processes is limited. This research gap forms the basis for this mixed methods study, in which we design and implement a longitudinal professionalization program as the research setting. We distinguish an organizational dimension focusing on structural choices and an intertwined didactic dimension. We examine which specific interaction between both contributes most to concrete learning-driven actions at the school of the participant. The results indicate that by participating in the program with such a design, school leaders prepare action plans for their own school and start up school development. The interaction between actively providing theoretical frameworks, further deepening insights through peer learning in professional learning communities, the conversion of insights into concrete action plans and supporting this with school-specific coaching leads to the strongest results, analyses show.

Community Empowerment Program Based on Green Economy in Preserving Herbs as Local Wisdom

Rural communities have ways to maintain the health of their families, and the community environment by processing plants and herbal products during the Corona Virus Disease-2019 (Covid-19) pandemic. The study aims to design a community empowerment program base on the green economy in preserving herbs as local wisdom. The study used Participatory Learning and Action (PLA) is relevant to the design of empowerment by collecting data through interview dialogue, observation, documentation, and focus group discussions. Research informants were determined through purposive sampling, namely stakeholders in the government of Tegal Regency, Central Java Province in Indonesia, such as the head of the health department and regional technical implementing unit for the Herbal Medicine Tourism (HMT) area in Kalibakung, the Headman of the Kalibakung Village, herbal practitioners, and empowerment groups. Participatory research analysis was used to identify, and categorize problems, prepare action plans, evaluate the entire process, and implement actions. The results of the study showed: (1) The community around the HMT area has not been empowered to cultivate plants and herbal products, so mutually beneficial partnerships have not been established. (2) HMT area in Kalibakung and the surrounding community land have the potential for cultivating herbal plants that can realize health independence for families, and communities, so there need to be empowerment programs. (3) The empowerment programs for the cultivation of plants and herbal products could be started by increasing the motivation and inspiration for the benefits of herbs, knowledge, understanding, and skills of products, and the cultivation of herbal plants in a sustainable manner.

Preparation of Action plan for elimination of Accident at black spot (A Case Study)

The number of traffic accidents globally is increasing as the world's population expands and cars become more widespread. Improved geometric design, congestion management tactics, and greater driver education and enforcement are all traditional ways to prevent collisions. While these procedures are often beneficial, they are frequently impractical or prohibitively expensive to put in place. Many factors play a role in traffic accidents, and some of them have a significant impact on one another, making it impossible for transportation safety engineers to use just one parameter to adequately explain the severity of traffic accidents. The number of traffic crashes can be reduced by studying parameters involved in traffic crashes utilizing combined contemporary models that include the interplay of input and output variables. Road and traffic accidents are a leading source of death and disability around the world. A collision between a conveyance and another conveyance, a person, or other items is referred to as a road contingency. In rapidly developing metropolitan agglomerations, road traffic accidents are a big concern. There is a substantial body of research literature that sheds light on the scope of the problem and the remedies that are required. Road traffic accidents are the third leading cause of unnatural death among all deaths. Transportation engineers and academics have attempted to construct safe roads that adhere to suitable design standards, yet traffic accidents are inescapable. If an accident occurs, the reasons that caused it must be identified, and suitable corrective measures must be established and implemented as soon as possible. The goal of this study is to gain a better knowledge of the problem of road traffic accidents and identification of black spot-on BG Road in Sivasagar City and ends at Sapekhati and the factors that may contribute to the high accident rates.

Street Level Bereucrats who usually handle disaster management received additional mandates as the task force for handling Covid 19 in accordance with policy of Bengkulu Mayor No. 167/2020. Having no experience in disasters pandemic and limited skills can cause problem in emergency services. This condition has caused street-level bureaucrats to do "coping behavioral". The locus of this research is Street Level Bereucrats of BPBD Bengkulu. This is a case study research in which Street Level Bereucrats as the population, and snowball sampling. The data used are primary and secondary data with interview techniques, observation and documentation study. The results showed that coping mechanism was done by Street Level Bereucrats in two ways: routines and simplification. The Routines mechanism are rationalizing services, client registration, and resources by placing personnel according to their skills and educational background, controlling risks, namely by improving disaster public service skills. The simplification mechanism is also carried out by simplifying work procedures, especially in emergency situations and preparing action plans that may have to be carried out.

Strategic Planning and Safety of Mountainous Areas in Türkiye’s Public Administration Organization

Türkiye is a country with lots of mountainous areas. Türkiye’s total area is 782219.7269 km2 and 583770.9139 km2 of this total area is composed of mountainous areas. In other words, our country’s 74.63% consists of mountains. 50% of our country’s lands are higher than 1000 meters and 2/3 of the total area is above 500 meters of altitude. Studies have shown that Türkiye’s average height is higher than the continent of Asia. Mountains are being opened to settlement in an ever-increasing fashion starting from the foothills. Despite the climate changes and the increasing population on the mountains, there is still no mountainous area administration policy in Türkiye. Nevertheless, administration of mountainous areas is related to the important topic of sustainable society, sustainable resource management. In other terms, the issue is strongly related to the important matter of social development enhanced by the untouched and natural environment. Humans first need to design the environment that they live in. It is crucial to highlight the importance of mountainous areas and define multifaceted safety issues related to the features of those areas depending on their geographical position. There are lots of interdisciplinary subjects regarding mountains to be directly or indirectly studied. What is the important factor? Is it the organization? Or is it the effects of that organization? The answers to these questions lie in the lack of administrative awareness regarding mountains in Türkiye and the problems arising from the lack thereof. Accordingly, it is crucial to include the administration of mountains into the public administration agenda and adapt the current protective improvements regarding mountainous areas taking place in the Council of Europe of which Türkiye has been an official member of since 1950. Due to unplanned settlement and the lack of administration structure’s adaptation to new circumstances, we directly face serious threats listed below. The mountains and their administration should not be considered as another element of the bundle of human or nature-induced problems such as intense heats, intense cold temperatures, strong winds and storms, drought, falling rocks, landslides, fires, terror, and etc. The responsibility to separate the mountains from other issues, the need to turn the “planning and administration of mountainous areas” into a matter of public policy, preparation of action plans regarding the structure of the necessary organization and the safety of mountainous areas are all included in the scope of this study. In addition, the paper also includes an administration model suggested by the Council of Europe supported by the notes of the author taken during the Academic Workshop on Sustainable and Effective Administration of Mountainous Areas and Society 5.0 held on December 11, 2019 in Izmir with the help of the Governorship of Izmir in celebration of the International Mountain Day.
