The necessity of identification of key talents in company is known in all sectors of economy. Therefore the aim of the paper is based on competency analysis to define key factors leading to talent identification and internalization through competency modelling. Paper characterizes areas of necessary competencies on specific job positions in companies. Their targeting on employee and teams in talent management is revealed. The objective is based on analysis of primary survey conducted on 101 agriculture companies. The data were obtained through manager surveys for which a single manager represented the given company. One-dimensional and multi-dimensional statistics were used to evaluate the data. Based on statistical analyses of required competencies five factors characterizing area of key employee and team development were identified. Those factors are inclusive approach, management support, strategic development, leadership development and integrity. The resultant factors create competency models usable in specified job positions. Limits of the paper is narrow focus on primary sector companies. The results may help surveyed companies in primary sector to set required and necessary competencies for specific areas to identify and develop employees, talents and teams.

The specifics of the current state of innovation and investment activity in the territories of the Russian Federation require a comprehensive analytical study, monitoring the effectiveness of innovation and investment development of the territories. The analysis of the study suggests that the task of leveling the levels of socio-economic development of territories can be solved on the basis of the formation of a modern investment and innovation management system that is adequate to the current socio-economic realities. The sustainable innovation and investment development of territories is strongly influenced by various components of the internal and external environment, including alternative factors, the analysis of which makes it possible to study problematic situations, crisis situations, determine ways to eliminate them and assess such opportunities. Violations and problems in the field of effective investment management and innovation implementation at the territorial level should be identified and eliminated in a timely manner. The main task of managing innovation processes is investment planning of the territory, development of actions that can apply and provide the necessary environment that has a favorable effect on the strategic development of the territory. During the scientific research, the classification of key factors influencing the program-target management of innovation and investment activities of economic regions was formed, and the effectiveness of their influence on the final result was determined.

Abstract: Quality management of systemic treatment of breast cancer is a high priority, but few quality indicators have been identified so far. As structure indicators, education, day clinic facilities, and a dedicated pharmacy are proposed. As process indicators, access to appropriate experts, equity, and report of the given treatment in accordance to the guidelines are suggested. Overuse can burden the patients with unnecessary toxicity and society with unnecessary costs. Overall survival is the reference standard of outcome, but this is difficult to compare. Just as important are quality of life, patient-reported outcome, and safety. The essential antineoplastic agents for breast cancer are regularly updated by the World Health Organization. Tailored therapy, optimal patient selection, and clinical benefit are becoming key factors for all patients. In the future, a new funding model, precision medicine, and the molecular revolution will require sufficient human resources and networks to organize the best strategies.

Cases presented in this volume highlight the need for innovative leadership development if young worker/activists are to prepare for leadership roles in established institutions that are facing radical economic and workforce changes. Focusing on one successful program in New York, the authors discuss the theoretical underpinnings, development, and outcomes of a multiunion, multisector program, noting its impact on the regional labor movement and analyzing key factors accounting for the program’s successful development of innovative-minded young leaders. The authors examine its usefulness in building inclusion and solidarity across dimensions of difference, including age, race, gender, ethnicity, sector, ableness, education level, industry, and more.

Learning Team

Do teams with motivation to learn actually engage in the behaviors that produce learning? Though team learning orientation has been found to be positively related to team learning, we know little about how and when it actually fosters team learning. It is obviously not the only factor that may impact learning in teams. Team psychological safety, or the way team members feel about taking interpersonal risks, is another important factor associated with team learning. Team open-mindedness, or the degree of curiosity that teams have for new ideas, is also likely to impact team learning. So far, these factors have been investigated independently of each other. In this article, we draw from theory on team development and goal achievement to develop a model of team learning that includes them. We report the results from a time-lagged, survey-based study designed to test our model. We found that the relationship between team learning orientation and team learning is mediated by team psychological safety. Yet, this is only true when team open-mindedness is low, not when it is high. We thus reveal initial patterns of interaction and discrimination among key factors that are related to team learning in ways that contribute to both theory and practice.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to develop an integrated theoretical framework of the interrelation of the key success factors in the process of standards implementation. Design/methodology/approach – Extensive case study work was carried out in ten American plants that had adopted ISO 9001 and or ISO 14001. First, within-case analysis captures the uniqueness of the implementation processes at each plant and leads to construction of the causal maps. Next, cross-case comparison identifies the key factors and the relationship between them, resulting in the theoretical framework. Findings – The key factors affecting implementation effectiveness include focus on internal improvement, top management support, design of the system around existing processes, use of information technology, positive employees’ attitude, and employees’ usage of the system. The resulting framework suggests three alternative pathways to effective implementation of standards: (i) incentives pathway, i.e., by providing the right incentives; (ii) integration pathway, i.e., by designing the system around existing processes; and (iii) information technology pathway, i.e., by using information technology. Research limitations/implications – The key contribution of this research is the integrated theoretical framework. Practical implications – Practically, this framework provides managers a clear depiction of the key actions required at each stage of standard implementation. Originality/value – To the best of our knowledge, this is the first integrated framework of the factors affecting standard adoption. We believe this framework is applicable to other meta-standards.
