Purpose This paper aims to clarify the relationship between perpetual succession and individual perpetual succession is the continuation of a company’s or other association’s presence in spite of the demise, liquidation, insanity, change in enrollment or a way out from the matter of any proprietor or part, or any exchange of stock. Design/methodology/approach The paper opted for a study using the related case studies. Moreover, this paper has all the necessary examples that are required for perpetual succession. Findings The paper provides that any adjustment in participation of a company does not affect the status of the company, death, insolvency, insanity and so forth of any member from a company does not influence the progression of the company. Thus, the life of the company does not rely on the life of its member directors. It may proceed forever, independent of continuity of its members or directors except in case of winding up or liquidation of a company. Originality/value This paper is to study how perpetual succession limits the scope of an individual.

Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings A study of two innovative workplace programs for workers with intellectual disabilities (WWIDs) in Australia revealed their positive influence. The study has a number of practical implications. The first is that HR departments can play a significant role in developing innovative projects that help WWIDs to settle down in a company. Ideally, the programs help them to move from feeling like “outsiders” to being “insiders,” who understand the working environment and feel closer to their colleagues. The best moment for such innovative programs is right at the start of employment. Practical implications The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations.

Purpose – This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach – This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings – Say what you like about IKEA, it attracts far more than its fair share of publicity – some of it self-generated, some of it triggered by customers, some of it part of comedians' stand-up routines, and most of it welcomed by a company which has, despite being the world's largest furniture retailer, even bigger ambitions Practical implications – The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world's leading organizations. Originality/value – The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to digest format.

The Relationship

Purpose – This paper aims to explore the library’s on-going relationship with the academic resource center (ARC), and how over the past two years, there have been new services and programs thriving as a result of this collaboration. The paper presents three case studies that demonstrate the library’s collaboration with the ARC and assesses the opportunities and challenges in working with this department in a new university. Design/methodology/approach – The approach of this paper is to explore three case studies on how the library collaborated with the ARC in supporting students. The case studies explore the opportunities for partnerships in developing innovative services, programs and resources. Librarians are integral members of the ARC and are embedded in this community by providing support to the department as well. Findings – The paper finds that collaborations between the library and the ARC are mutually beneficial: academic libraries may consider partnering with tutoring centers to create synergies in enhancing the students’ research experience. However, not all collaborative projects or programs are successful or repeatable in success. They are still opportunities to build and strengthen the relationship between the library and the ARC. Originality/value – This paper presents three case studies on how the library works closely with the “Global Academic Fellows” (GAF) from the ARC. The GAFs work closely with faculty and librarians as they teach, tutor and collaborate with different university departments to create programs or initiatives that enrich the student experience and the university. Their roles have been instrumental in collaborating with the library to create innovative programs, events and support services throughout the two years since the university opened in 2013.

Moreover, work values fit was investigated.

Purpose Reviews the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoints practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings What is cynicism? To the manager, it is a cancerous, evil flow of negativity that stops employees from getting on with the job they are paid to do; it is the holding back of a company on the rise; it is the contamination of enthusiastic, young employees with so-called wise words from more experienced members of staff. In short, it is nothing less than the almost willful sabotage of all the good things a company tries to do. Practical Implications Provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations.

Not the art of conversation, which changed sometime in the mid-1970s if our parents are to be believed, but the status of conversation itself. Discussion, argument, discourse and verbal jousting are no longer deemed real enough to matter very much. Unless, of course, they occur online and are witnessed by thousands of people. Practical implications – The paper provides strategic insights and practical thinking that have influenced some of the world’s leading organizations. Originality/value – The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.

The Relationship

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to provide language and meaning to open up silence around traumatic boarding school memories through the symbolic aura (Nora 1989) surrounding key memory objects. The secondary aim is to illustrate to historians the importance of paying attention to interviewees’ discussion of material objects as clues to uncovering deeper, unexplored memories. Design/methodology/approach The approach draws on Vamik Volkan’s (2006) understanding of “linking objects” – significant objects preserved or created by traumatised people. Traumatic emotions become linked with loss and grief associated with the object, turning it into a tightly packed symbol whose significance is “bound up in the conscious and unconscious nuances of the relationship that preceded the loss” (Volkan, 2006, p. 255). The experiences of the two authors are examined as exemplars in this process. Findings The exemplars illustrate how complicated and long term the process of remembering and understanding is for those who experience boarding school trauma and the power of “linking objects” to open up memory surrounding it. The case studies also alert educational historians to how emotionally fraught revealing what happened can be and how long it may take to confront the events. Originality/value Linking objects have not previously been used in relationship to surfacing boarding school trauma. The paper is also unique in offering deep analysis of boarding school trauma undertaken by skilled educational researchers who incorporate reflections from their own experience informed by broad theory and pertinent psychological research.
