GROWing in dentistry: mentoring the dental professional.

Introduction Mentoring plays a key role in supporting individuals and organisations. It is a journey in which the mentor aids the development of their clients by setting achievable goals and realistic plans, monitoring progress and providing feedback or assisting reflection. The mentor assists the learner in solving problems and providing personal support and motivation. As the relationship develops over time, the mentor will need to utilise various skills, knowledge and behaviours in order to facilitate successful outcomes. Effective mentoring relies on a process known as the 'mentor life cycle.' This involves the matching process, contracting, use of mentor models or diagnostic tools, appraisal, peer and group supervision.Methods A literature review was performed (keywords were 'coaching' or 'coach', 'mentoring' or 'mentor' and 'dentistry'). Guidance, institutional publications and original research were considered. Limits were applied (2013 onwards, English only). The evidence was appraised to inform a best practice guide for use in mentoring, applicable to dentistry.Conclusion Mentoring can create a positive culture that can help team members share knowledge, cultivate new ideas and improve team working. This paper explores the role of mentoring in a dental healthcare setting and the use of the 'mentor's toolkit' to promote professional development of the individuals involved. It also highlights the stages of the mentoring process, use of the GROW model and the role of supervision to support mentors in mutual growth and learning. When used effectively, the mentoring process positively impacts on both the organisation and the individuals within it, ultimately resulting in better patient care.

Management, supervision, and healthcare: A field experiment

AbstractWe used a randomized management consulting intervention with 80 public‐sector healthcare facilities in Nigeria to study the role of information, training, and supervision on the adoption of improved organizational practices. Facilities that received detailed improvement plans and 9 months of implementation support—including regular visits to monitor progress and set intermediate goals related to the plans—showed large, significant short‐term effects on the adoption of practices that were under the responsibility of facility staff. Facilities that received general improvement advice but no implementation support showed no change in practices. Implementation support appears crucial for improvements, especially in contexts without market incentives for the adoption of effective managerial practices.

The impact of internal and external corporate governance mechanisms on tax aggressiveness: evidence from Tunisia

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to examine the impact of internal and external corporate governance mechanisms on the probability of engaging in tax aggressiveness.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses a sample of 52 firms listed on the Tunis stock exchange observed over the 2003–2016 period (The authors had to stop sampling in 2016 because the measurement of tax aggressiveness requires 4 years after the year of study. Therefore, the data on the measurement of tax aggressiveness were collected until 2020). This paper uses the logistic regression technique.FindingsThe results of the first logistic regression show that ownership structure and the supervision role of the tax authorities are determining factors that explain tax aggressiveness; while, the attributes of the board of directors does not seem to explain the probability of engaging in aggressive tax strategies. To further probe this question, the authors carried out additional analyses that examine the moderating effect of controlling shareholders on the relationship between the attributes of the board and tax aggressiveness. The results of our additional regressions indicate that the effect of these attributes improves in cases of non-presence of a controlling shareholder. This implies that the role that the board of directors can play in controlling management is possibly conditioned by the presence or no of control block holders.Research limitations/implicationsThe major limitation of this study is that it concentrates only on Tunisian listed companies because they are the only companies the financial statements of which are publicly available in Tunisia. Although the sample is relatively small due to the problem of data availability, it appears to be satisfactory given the 15-year sampling period (i.e. from 2003 to 2016).Practical implicationsThe results of the study may help Tunisian regulators create requirements for corporate governance (such as the size of the board of directors and audit committee or the concentration of ownership). Moreover, this study not only focuses on the effect of corporate governance mechanisms on tax aggressiveness but also provides shareholders with information on the governance mechanisms to which they should pay more attention in their desire to obtain more efficient tax results.Social implicationsThe findings are also useful for tax policymakers seeking to identify the circumstances that give rise to an increased risk of tax aggressiveness, as tax aggressive behavior and the resulting non-payment of taxes also have societal implications. In fact, taxes also play an important role in financing the provision of public goods, making corporation tax a matter of public concern.Originality/valueThe present study differs from others in the existing literature by designing a more precise measure of tax aggressiveness and examining the interaction between two internal governance mechanisms; the presence of a controlling shareholder and the attributes of the board of directors. This study also examines the impact of the control exercised by the tax authorities on the behavior of firms in terms of tax aggressiveness.

The Impact of the Voluntary Environmental Agreements on Green Technology Innovation: Evidence From the Prefectural-Level Data in China

“Porter Hypothesis” believes that moderate environmental regulation can promote the growth of green technology innovation. Voluntary environmental agreements are a typical type of environmental regulation and theoretically promote green technology innovation. In 1964, Japan was the first country in the world to implement a voluntary environmental agreement, with good results. Subsequently, European Union countries began to implement the “fifth Environmental Action Plan” on 1 January 1993, which effectively combined voluntary environmental agreements with corporate self-regulation. The prior empirical work assists the idea that environmental regulation has diverse impacts on the environment. However, China’s voluntary environmental agreements have a short implementation time and lack of experience and need to be further explored in terms of policy proposal and technology implementation. The existing literature is based on a sample of units at the provincial level or national level are studied, utilizing multiple regression analysis methods, this study in China prefecture-level administrative units as investigation object, and choose the government environmental protection education, the government agreement propaganda, enterprise ecological ethics, information disclosure, market efficiency, and information technology support six elements as the key independent variables. This paper empirically examines the promotion effect of the voluntary environmental agreement on green technology innovation, finds the shortcomings of China’s voluntary environmental agreement regulation, and puts forward specific improvement strategies to promote the growth of green technology innovation more effectively. It is found that government environmental protection education, enterprise ecological ethics construction, market effectiveness, and information technology support have obvious promoting effects on green product innovation, green process innovation, and end management innovation. Government agreement publicity has no promotion function for green product innovation, green process innovation, and terminal governance innovation. The disclosure of protocol information has a promotion effect on green product innovation, but it lacks the promotion function on green process innovation, and end management innovation. The research believes that the deepening of the implementation of voluntary environmental agreements in China should give full play to the leading role of the government, implement progressive policies, deepen the internal coordination of environmental regulations, give play to the supervision role of the public and the media, learn from the experience of western countries, and promote green credit. The finding of the study opens up new insight for appropriate policymaking.

A Design-Based Study for Development of a Model for a Successful Online Discussion Forum

Due to the current situation of lock-down and social distancing, many educational institutions have shifted to online learning. This study aims to identify the key factors that should be present for successful online discussion and explores the advantages of merging two activities, e-mentoring and online discussion, to improve the quality of the online discussion. A mixed methods design-based was conducted in the setting of the online program in health professions education. Several success factors were identified by the current study: merging of mentorship and online discussion, shifting of roles, structuring of the discussion, assessment, and the use of guides. The study also magnified the role of supervision as moderation and mentorship and suggested solutions to deal with silent participants. Finally, the use of a student guide and shifting of roles between the students play a crucial role in the success of the ODFs.

A Mathematical Model for the Pricing of Derivative Financial Products: the Role of the Banking Supervision and of the Model Risk

Abstract This paper aims to identify an innovative procedure to assess the model risk of a derivative financial product. More precisely, the authors, after briefly discussing the role of banking supervision, present a framework to estimate the model risk at the current time of a bond and they distinguish its systematic component. This model, consisting of two different expressions of the security price, is based on the hypothesis that the underlying interest rate is a swap rate that may be represented also as an AR(1)-GARCH(1,1) process. Moreover, the authors show that their model can be used for forecasting purposes. In reality, the aim of this study is to investigate the link between pricing models of financial derivatives and model risk and to highlight that this latter depends on the volatility of the security and on the price distribution.

Taking care of the caregivers: The moderating role of reflective supervision in the relationship between COVID-19 stress and the mental and professional well-being of the IECMH workforce.

The present study examined the relationships between COVID‐related stress, mental health and professional burnout in the infant and early child mental health (IECMH) workforce and examined reflective supervision and consultation (RSC) as a potential protective factor in the context of COVID‐related stress. Participants included 123 adults (n = 121 female, modal age range 30–39 years) in the TN IECMH workforce (mean years of experience = 13.6 years) surveyed in June/July 2020. Sector representation was quite varied (home visiting, childcare, child welfare, early intervention). Results indicated the majority (63%) of the sample was caring for someone else (e.g., child or elderly person) while working at home, 46% of the sample had depression symptoms (18% in the moderate‐severe range), and 75% of the sample had anxiety symptoms (33% in the moderate‐severe range). Higher COVID stress was associated with higher internalizing symptoms and burnout levels and this relationship was mediated by self‐care behaviors such that the more COVID stress one reported, the fewer self‐care behaviors they engaged in, and the higher the risk for internalizing and burnout. Finally, the pathway from COVID stress to self‐care behaviors was moderated by RSC. IECMH professionals who received less than 1 year (or no experience) of RSC showed a significant decrease in self‐care behaviors during times of low, average and high levels of COVID stress compared to those who received 1 year or more of RSC. Implications for both policy and practice will be discussed.

Research on the Credit Risk of Technological SMEs based on the Evolutionary Game Model

Technological SMEs face a complex financing environment, and making full use of financial technology to achieve a dynamic equilibrium of bank-enterprise cooperation in a bank-oriented economic climate is the key to optimizing the financing environment of technological SMEs and the risk supervision system of banks. Given this, this paper constructs an evolutionary game model from two dimensions: whether banks use textual messages to monitor the dynamic credit risk of technological SMEs and whether technological SMEs whitewash textual messages, and finds evolutionary stabilization strategies for both sides. The results show that the two stable evolutionary paths are significantly influenced by factors such as initial value and exposure rate of text messages. Commercial banks should implement a dynamic supervisory approach, balance risk supervision, and innovation, play the role of public opinion supervision, and strive to create a win-win situation for both banks and enterprises.

The Impact of Poor Corporate Governance on the Effectiveness of Internal Audit at the Road Development Agency (RDA) in Zambia

Various research findings on the collapse of Enron Corporation in 2001 reveal that despite having structures and mechanisms for good corporate governance, everybody at the company disregarded these rules and regulations. Like Enron, the RDA has laid down regulatory provisions that specify the governance structures and processes including the Internal Audit function at the institution. However, these guidelines and principles are either circumvented or manipulated, resulting in poor performance and wastage of resources, thereby adversely affecting the effectiveness of the Internal Audit function at the institution. Therefore, research was conducted using a cross-sectional descriptive study design with both qualitative and quantitative methods to ascertain the impact of poor corporate governance on the effectiveness of Internal Audit at the RDA. The objectives of the study were to evaluate the corporate governance practices and ascertain whether or not there was control circumvention, distortion, and manipulation of these structures and mechanisms resulting in challenges for the Internal Audit activity at the institution with a view to coming up with measures to enhance or strengthen existing corporate governance structures in the Road Sector in general and the RDA in particular. Poor corporate governance practices affect the efficiency and effectiveness of operation for not only the institution but also the internal audit activity in an organization and lead to failure to achieve organizational objectives. Factors that contribute to poor corporate governance at the RDA, included, making appointments to the Board and Audit Committee outside the provisions of the statutes and without regard to specified qualifications. The results showed a direct and significant relationship between poor corporate governance and the effectiveness of the Internal Audit activity at the RDA. To strengthen the supervision and oversight role of the board, members should be appointed in line with the statutes and taking into account, skills, and competencies.
