Strategic Management Practices on the Performance of Non-Government Organizations in Kisii County, Kenya

Running Non-Governmental organizations still has its fair share of challenges. Managerial efficiency is still wanting, its performance is very low with most of them witnessing increased corruption cases. Thus, the purpose of this study was to assess the influence of strategic management practices on the performance of NGOs in Kisii County, Kenya. The target population was 906 respondents comprising 16 Presidents, 16 Treasurers and 804 members of the board. The sample size for the study was 112 respondents comprised of 16 presidents and 16 treasurers who were sampled purposively while 80 board members were sampled randomly, 5 of them per NGO. Questionnaires were used to collect data from the board members whereas interviews were used to collect data from presidents and treasurers. Piloting of research instruments was conducted amongst 10.0% of the sample size of the respondents in the neighbouring Kisii County to establish validity, reliability, credibility, and dependability. Validity was ascertained through expert judgment. The reliability of the instruments was determined using the test-retest technique. The correlation coefficient was obtained using Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation Method. If a coefficient of r≥0.7 is obtained, then it indicates the high internal reliability of the instruments. Credibility was established by data triangulation through multiple analysts whereas dependability was established through detailed reporting. Data analysis began by identifying common themes from the respondents’ descriptions of their experiences. Frequency counts of the responses were then obtained to generate information about the respondents and to illustrate the general trend of findings on the various variables that were under investigation. Qualitative data was analysed thematically along the objectives and presented in narrative forms whereas quantitative data was analysed descriptively using frequencies, percentages, mean and standard deviation and inferentially using correlation and linear regression with the help of Statistical Packages for Social Science (SPSS Version 23). The study had a response rate of 87% which was considered to be very good, and 32 respondents were interviewed. The findings of the study were presented using tables and charts. After the analysis was conducted, it was evident that the majority of the NGOs did not engage in the expected procedures of strategic management, specifically planning, implementation and evaluation. Though there was some level of agreement in understanding the external environment in a firm operated, the majority of the respondents were not aware of how dynamic their work environment can change thus affecting their firm’s objectives. Ensuring that firms conducted an internal analysis to identify their strengths and weaknesses, ensuring firms had crisis management plans, well-defined objectives that would enable the achievement of long-term goals, and practical milestones that could be used to gauge the accomplishment of the set goals were among the significant predictors are detailed in the inferential statistics sections.

Communication Capacities and Mutual Connection System of Teachers in Public Elementary Schools

This study examined the communication capabilities and mutual connection system of public elementary school teachers in the Davao Central District, Division of Davao City. A universal sampling method was employed using a non-experimental quantitative research design with a correlational approach. The respondents were 132 public elementary school teachers. Statistical tools utilized included the mean, Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient (Pearson r), and regression analysis. The findings revealed that the communication capabilities of public elementary school teachers—measured in terms of connections, compelling communication, stability, manners, listening, and charm—were often demonstrated. Similarly, the mutual connection system, assessed through revision, goal achievement, unification, and potential, was also frequently evident. A significant relationship was found between the teachers' communication capabilities and their mutual connection system. Furthermore, specific domains of communication capabilities significantly influenced the mutual connection system. These results underscore the synergistic relationship between communication capabilities and a mutual connection system, where effective communication enhances mutual connections, and a well-structured connection system fosters continuous and efficient communication. Conversely, weaknesses in these areas could result in communication breakdowns, misunderstandings, or diminished group cohesion. The study highlights the importance of fostering both robust communication skills and a supportive connection system among public elementary school teachers to promote collaboration and effectiveness in the educational setting. This study was limited to public elementary school teachers in the Davao Central District, which may affect the generalizability of the findings to other contexts. Future research could explore other educational levels or regions and consider mixed methods to provide deeper insights and validate the results.

The Effect of School Heads' Style in The Utilization of Online Communica-tion in Building Positive Organizational Culture

School leaders at all levels play an essential role in shaping school culture. In their daily work, principals communicate core values. Teachers instill values through their actions and words. Parents boost their spirits by visiting schools, participating in governance, and celebrating success. Communication with internal and external stakeholders is part of the school head's daily work. A day is incom-plete unless there is communication between teaching and non-teaching personnel at the school. Thus, this study used the descrip-tive correlational design to determine if the school head's communi-cation style mediates the effect of the utilization of online communi-cation in building a positive organizational culture. The respondents were the 65 school heads and 349 teachers from the 7 districts in the Division of San Pablo City. The validated survey questionnaire was used to gather the data. The data were analyzed using frequen-cy, mean, standard deviation, Pearson product-moment correlation, and multiple linear regression. The results revealed that the school heads and teachers perceived that the level of school heads' utiliza-tion of online communication, school head communication style in utilizing online communication, and building a positive organiza-tional culture were highly manifested. The test of correlation be-tween the school heads utilization of online communication in building a positive organizational culture is significant. The school heads’ utilization of online communication affects building a posi-tive organizational culture. The school head's communication style mediates the school head's utilization of online communication in building a positive organizational culture in terms of being a super-visor, and manager. The study recommends that the school should always capacitate teachers using various online platforms as inter-net communication has been a part of the system ever since the pandemic.

Psycho-social variable and cybercrime among library users in tertiary institutions in Cross River State Nigeria

Investigating cybercrime and the psycho-social variable among library users in tertiary institutions in Cross River State, Nigeria, was the aim of this study. Three objectives and research questions were developed to help the study accomplish its goal. The variables under investigation guided the completion of the literature review. For this study, a survey research design was chosen. For the study, a sample of five hundred and five (505) respondents was chosen. Purposive sampling was used in the selection process to guarantee that each faculty sample method was equally represented. This came to eight (8) tertiary institutions in all. 10% of the library's patrons were then chosen by accidently sampling them. A statistical analysis method called Pearson Product Moment Correlation Analysis was used to evaluate the research ideas. Because of the characteristics of the variables included in the investigation, this statistical method was employed. Every hypothesis was tested using relative degrees of freedom and at the .05 level of significance. The analysis's conclusions showed a relationship between cybercrimes in tertiary institutions and self-esteem, emotional intelligence, and gender.
