There is a significant transformation in the banking sector in India both in the Public and the Private Sector Banks. The everyday scandals makes it imperative to understand the Organisational Culture of the Public and the Private Sector banks. The various terms that are used in association with organisational culture are: values, ethics, beliefs, ethos, climate, and culture. Ethos are the values that give a unique identity to a group. The study has been conducted using the 4 point Instrument of Udai Pareek on OCATAPACE, the Organisational ethos. OCTAPACE is the acronym for eight steps to create functional ethos. OCTAPACE stands for Openness, Confrontation, Trust, authenticity, Pro-action, Autonomy, Collaboration, and Experimenting. The research is undertaken through a primary survey in 32 branches of the Public Sector and Private Sector banks in East Delhi. The findings of the study indicate that there is an interrelationship between various factors of the OCTAPACE profile in case of the two types of banks. There seems to be no significant differences between the OCTAPACE profiles of the two types of banks.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to measure and evaluate the performance efficiency of 44 Indian commercial banks, out of which 26 banks belong to the public sector, and 18 banks are from the private sector for the period of 2008-2013. Design/methodology/approach The two-stage network data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach (i.e. variable return to scale and constant return to scale) is used for the measurement of performance in the Indian banking sector. To verify the robustness of the proposed study, sensitivity analysis is also performed. Findings A comparative study between public sector banks (PSBs) and private sector banks (PVBs) showed that latter being more productive compared to the former. The investigation highlighted that two banks are most efficient among the PSBs, and eight banks from PVBs are found to be most effective. On the other side, the performance of State Bank of Bikaner & Jaipur and Lakshmi Vilas Bank is discovered to be less significant from PSB and PVB category, respectively. Research limitations/implications This study will guide the Indian banks to improve upon the factors in which they are lagging, for the improvement of their overall performance. The quality category parameters, i.e. quality of service, quality of equipment, are not considered due to unavailability of information in the output measures, and the methodology used for the study does not identify the causes or remedies for the inefficiency of the banks. Originality/value The developed DEA model would help the decision maker to take decisions on the issues related to the performance of the banks. This paper discusses very practical issues in an analytic manner.

<p>Quiet Life Hypothesis is a concept which ensures the players in an industry achieving and attaining the highest market share. But Quiet life is also possible with the very strong strategic and efficient leadership at CEO level of any organisation. Their tenure makes the organisation to emerge as industry’s behemoth like SBI. The QLH is tested in the Banking sector especially State Bank of India. Nevertheless, to say Ms. Arundhati Bhattacharya took over as CEO of SBI in Oct, 2013 and with her extended tenure till Oct 2017, she made SBI as the most efficient bank among all public sector banks in handling demonetisation, GST and implementing the road map of merger of all associate banks of SBI and Bharatiya Mahila Bank. The legacy of Ms. Arundhati left SBI in an extremely strategically stronger position than before she became CEO. This paper reveals that the exit of hers made SBI reap the benefits of Quiet Life in comparisons with other public and private sector banks in India.</p>

When Lord Denning made his Report on Legal Education in Africa in 1961,2 there were very few African lawyers in Kenya, Tanganyika and Uganda.3 During the 1960's the number of African lawyers in these countries rapidly increased. The public sector has been largely Africanized, but the private sector of the profession remains predominantly non-African.4 The 1970's will see an even more rapid increase in the number of African lawyers.5 This increase and the departure of numerous non-African lawyers,6 will bring about almost complete Africanization of the profession by 1980.7

Clearing is the process of realization of proceeds of cheques drawn on other banks through intermediary RBI/SBI or any other bank that acts as a Clearing House. A clearing house established in any location helps in faster and efficient collection of the cheques. A few private banks have been authorized to run the clearing houses at few locations. HDFC Bank Ltd. is one such privileged private sector bank. The chapter analyzes the process set for clearing services in the HDFC and SBI. The study employs primary data collected through observation by spending time and watching people in the organization, though it has been supplemented by the secondary data as well. The results indicate the various types of clearing process present in HDFC Bank and SBI for providing better and fast services to their customers and set higher standards for performance. The bank is committed to increased use of technology to provide quick collection services to its customers. The banking sector, whether it is private or public sector banks, has immensely benefited from the implementation of superior technology during the recent past, which has given new shape to the nature of the services provided to customers. This chapter also compares the clearing-related banking services provided by HDFC and SBI on the basis of primary data collected through the questionnaire to provide the different aspects and drawbacks of services of the public sector bank (SBI) and private sector bank (HDFC).

So the satisfaction of customers has very vital role among the bankers. Here the factors influencing on satisfaction of customers is analysed and private banking sector gives high satisfaction than public sector banks.

Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is the concept through which travelers plan, book, and pay for public or private transport on a single platform using either a service or subscription-based model. Observations of current projects identified two distinct approaches to enabling MaaS: the private-sector approach defined as a “business model,” and the public sector approach that manifests as an “operating model.” The distinction between these models is significant. MaaS provides a unique opportunity for the public sector to set and achieve public policy goals by leveraging emerging technologies in favor of the public good. Common policy goals that relate to transportation include equity and access considerations, environmental impact, congestion mitigation, and so forth. Strategies to address these policy goals include behavioral incentivization and infrastructure reallocation. This study substantiates two models for implementing MaaS and expanding on the public sector approach, to enable policy in favor of the public good.

PurposeThe paper aims to understand the different motivations / reasons for engaging in CSR initiatives by the organizations. In addition, the study also examines the relationship between CSR motivations and corporate social performance (CSP).Design/methodology/approachThe data were collected from two power sector organizations: one was a private sector firm and the other was a public sector firm. A comparative analysis of the variables with respect to private and public sector organizations was conducted. A questionnaire survey was administered among 370 employees working in the power sector, with 199 executives from public sector and 171 from private sector.Findings“Philanthropic” motivation emerged as the most dominant CSR motivation among both the public and private sector firms. The private sector firm was found to be significantly higher with respect to “philanthropic”, “enlightened self-interest” and “normative” CSR motivations when compared with the public sector firms. Findings suggest that public and private sector firms differed significantly on four CSR motivations, namely, “philanthropic”, “enlightened self-interest”, “normative” and “coercive”. The CSP score was significantly different among the two power sector firms of public and private sectors. The private sector firm had a higher CSP level than the public sector undertaking.Research limitations/implicationsFurther studies in the domain need to address differences in CSR motivations and CSP across other sectors to understand the role of industry characteristics in influencing social development targets of organizations. Research also needs to focus on demonstrating the relationship between CSP and financial performance of the firms. Further, the HR outcomes of CSR initiatives and measurement of CSP indicators, such as attracting and retaining talent, employee commitment and organizational climate factors, need to be assessed.Originality/valueThe social issues are now directly linked with the business model to ensure consistency and community development. The results reveal a need for “enlightened self-interest” which is the second dominant CSR motivation among the organizations. The study makes a novel contribution by determining that competitive and coercive motivations are not functional as part of organizational CSR strategy. CSR can never be forced as the very idea is to do social good. Eventually, the CSR approach demands a commitment from within. The organizations need to emphasize more voluntary engagement of employees and go beyond statutory requirements for realizing the true CSR benefits.

PPP model is an important model which provides public products or services based on the coordination between the public sector and private sector. The implementation of PPP model is helpful for relieving the stress of insufficient funding for public sector and improving the efficiency of resource allocation. Comparing with traditional infrastructure project, PPP project involves many stakeholders, and the cooperation efficiency during the different stakeholders impacts the results of the project directly. Thus, it is important to explore the cooperation efficiency of PPP project. Based on grey clustering model, this paper evaluates the cooperation efficiency of PPP project. An evaluation index system including 36 indexes is established based on the aims and objectives of three stakeholders (public sector, private sector, and passengers). A case study of Beijing Metro Line 4 PPP project is implemented to verify the validity and applicability of the evaluation model. And the results showed that the cooperation efficiency of Beijing Metro Line 4 PPP project is relatively high. The model also provided insights into the shortage of the cooperation efficiency of Beijing Metro Line 4 PPP project. As such, the results can assist all stakeholders in adjusting the cooperation efficiency.

A model is proposed that tests the antecedents and the mediating effect of corporate entrepreneurship on the external environment-performance relationship within private and public sector organizations. Hypotheses were tested using data from a sample of chief executive officers in 51 private sector organizations in the United States, 141 private sector organizations in Slovenia and 134 public sector state and semi-state enterprises in Ireland. Data was analyzed using hierarchical regression analysis. The results show that dynamism and munificence effects on performance are mediated by an organization's corporate entrepreneurship in the private sector and munificence effects on performance are mediated by an organization's renewal in the public sector and that renewal must be in place to maximize the effect of munificence on performance. The results support a model that incorporates an extensive and diverse literature into a single model and helps illuminate similarities and differences of corporate entrepreneurship between the private sector and the public sector. The study shows that an integrative model and the interplay among the constructs yields new insights unavailable to single and focused approaches. It offers new insights about corporate entrepreneurship, not only as a discrete pursuit, but also as a construct that shapes and extends organizational performance.

A number of commentators have suggested that the shift from a Fordist to a post-Fordist regime of political economy has had positive consequences for sociology, including the reinforcement of critical sociologies ( Burawoy, 2005 ; Steinmetz, 2005 ). This article argues that, although disciplinary hierarchies have been destabilized, what is emerging is a new form of instrumental knowledge, that of applied interdisciplinary social studies. This development has had a particular impact upon sociology. Savage and Burrows (2007) , for example, argue that sociological knowledge no longer has a privileged claim to authority and is increasingly in competition with social knowledge produced by the private sector and agencies of the public sector. The response of many sociologists to such claims has been to reassert the importance of the discipline as the purveyor of critically relevant knowledge about society. The article traces how the idea of internal critique within sociology has developed to embrace ‘knowing capitalism’ ( Thrift, 2005 ), at the same time as declaring the impossibility of sociological knowledge. The critique of sociology also becomes the critique of critique and what remains is the instrumentalization of knowledge. Where many sociologists continue to claim a special interest in critical knowledge, the article suggests that, in contrast, we potentially confront the problem that such knowledge may itself be facing a crisis of reproduction.
