<p dir="RTL">هدفت هذه الدراسة إلى تشخيص الثقافة التنظيمية في مؤسسات القطاعين العام والخاص من خلال استطلاع آراء الموظفين الإماراتيين حول عمل المرأة الإماراتية وتوليها مناصب إدارية وقيادية عليا. وتم استخدام أسلوب المسح الميداني بتوزيع 1500 استبياناً خاصا بالدراسة على عينة عشوائية متيسرة من الموظفين الإماراتيين العاملين في مختلف الإمارات السبع في الدولة وتم استرجاع 1026 استبيانا مكتملا منها. وقد أظهرت نتائج تحليل التباين الأحادي وتحليل الانحدار المتعدد أنّ الموظفين يؤيدون عمل المرأة المواطنة خارج بيتها لكن مع وجود تخوف من أن يكون هذا العمل على حساب بيتها وأسرتها. كما أنّ الموظفين يؤيدون تولي المرأة الإماراتية مناصب إدارية وقيادية عليا في مؤسساتهم ويثقون بقدرتها على القيام بمهام هذه الوظائف. كما أظهر التحليل أن النساء الإماراتيات يفضلن العمل في وظائف تختلف عن تلك التي يفضلها لهن الرجال مع تشابه الطرفين في تفضيل عمل المرأة المواطنة في الوظائف الحكومية عموما. وقد تأثرت آراء الموظفين بعوامل رئيسية هي الجنس ومستوى التعليم ودرجة التمدن والتمسك بالقيم والعادات والتقاليد الإماراتية ودرجة المحافظه أو التحرر. وقد تمت مناقشة هذه النتائج وارتباطها بالثقافة التنظيمية وثقافة المجتمع في الإمارات العربية المتحدة.</p><p dir="RTL"> <strong><em>كلمات محورية</em></strong>: ثقافة تنظيمية، عمل المرأة، الإمارات، وظائف قيادية</p><p dir="RTL" align="right"><strong>Examining the Organizational Culture of Public and Private Sector Organizations about the Work of Emirati Women and their Appointment in Administrative and Top Leadership Positions</strong></p><p>The purpose of the present study was to examine organizational culture in the public and private sectors by exploring Emirati employees’ opinion about local women’s work and leadership capabilities. Survey was used to collect responses from a convenience sample of 1500 employees of which 1026 were completed and analyzed using SPSS. Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that employees supported women’s work outside home but with concern that such work might come on the expense of their families. Employees also supported women’s appointment in administrative and leadership top positions with confidence in their leadership capabilities. Although expressed similar opinions, men were less supportive of women and have preferred different jobs for local women with governmental jobs being marked as the most suitable for Emirati women by both genders. Those opinions were influenced by employee’s gender, education, urbanization, commitment to national values, and liberalism. These findings have been discussed in relationship with organizational culture and culture of the society. <strong><em></em></strong></p><p><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong>: Women Work, Emirates, Leadership, Public Sector, Private Sector, Organizational Culture</p><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:OfficeDocumentSettings> <o:AllowPNG/> </o:OfficeDocumentSettings> </xml><![endif]-->

Employees' play a key role in the existence and growth of any organisation, therefore their welfare is essential. During the past few years, both public sector and private sector organisations have been contributing towards the employee's benefits and also increase their efficiency. Employees' welfare facilities include housing facilities, free medical facilities, retirement benefits, children and adult educational benefits, welfare measures for the employee's families, loan facilities, etc. If the organisations do not bother about the employees benefit, but expect efficient and high performance from them, it is a mere waste. So there is utmost need for the employee's welfare in any type of organisation. Organizations have to provide welfare facilities to their employees to keep their motivation levels high. A comparative study was undertaken to know the satisfaction level of the employees on the enforceability of various welfare measures in both the public and private sector organizations. The study also throws light on impact of welfare measures on the employees' performance.

One hundred thirty on responses from public employees and 154 responses from private employees were analyzed to compare employee attitudes towards individualism-collectivism across public and private sector organizations. The present study provides knowledge to public management by showing that some organizational characteristics of public sector organizations (i.e., goal ambiguity, red tape, and public-service motivation) make the public-private distinction, whereas others do not. Additionally, we found that the distinction has been blurred as New Public Management (NPM) has been adopted recently in the public sector. Finally, we support the two-factor model of organizational collectivism and individualism, as well as report that organizational individualism differentiates public and private sector organizations. The theroretical and practical implications of the findings are discussed.

The long-term preservation and accessibility of business records is often not accorded the attention that it deserves. Yet, records are a major organizational resource needed to support the current business of the organization as well as retaining the verifiable evidence of an organization's past programmes and activities. Records also serve as tools of accountability, transparency and good governance and provide reliable evidence in organizations' transactions and activities. The long-term preservation of records ensures that the organization is protected against costly litigation and that its interests and those of its employees are protected. This chapter lays emphasis on the need to preserve organizational records, the challenges facing preservation activities in the public and private sector organizations, the challenges of managing and preserving electronic records and proposes strategies for addressing these challenges.

Public And Private Sector

Conventional theory, which holds that there is a significant difference between leadership in the public and private sectors as leaders manage organizational culture to achieve strategic performance, has begun to be disputed by recent scholars in organizational behavior. The purpose of this study was to validate the views of organizational practitioners that private sector leaders are best suited to facilitate organizational efficiency by examining the link between leaders, culture, and employee performance. The Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) was distributed to middle managers (N=200) who worked in public and private sector organizations across the United States Virgin Islands to examine how the leaders used organizational culture to improve their organizations’ performances. The study found that leadership practices in both sectors have significant effects on performance. While the hierarchy culture was dominant in government agencies dictating effectiveness is the adherence to strict rules and regulations, the criteria of effectiveness most prominent in the private sector was market culture evident in the achieving of goals, outpacing the competition, increasing market share, and acquiring premium levels of financial returns. These findings suggest that, contrary to conventional theory, those leaders with the greatest organizational success are not restricted only to the private sector; but they are also evident in the public sector. This study concluded that leadership in both the public and the private sectors can induce a significant level of performance when strategies are aligned with organization’s culture and objectives as these organizations developed, grow, and mature.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore how the institutional context influences human resource management (HRM) policies in the public and private sector in Nigeria. Design/methodology/approach The convergent parallel mixed methods approach was adopted for this study. Survey data were collected from 122 HR managers across public and private sector organizations in Nigeria as well as 13 qualitative interviews. ANCOVA was used to analyse quantitative data while thematic analysis was used to analyse qualitative data in order to understand the influence of institutions on HRM in the public and private sector in Nigeria. Findings Findings indicate that while coercive, mimetic and normative institutional mechanisms influenced HRM in both the public and private sector, the influence of coercive mechanisms was significantly higher in the public sector, largely due to the poor enforcement of labour legislation and attempts by private sector organizations to adopt neo-liberal approaches to HRM. Originality/value The study provides an understanding of the institutional context of HRM in Nigeria by highlighting how varying degrees of pressures from the environment create internal diversity in HRM approaches in the public and private sector.

The objective of this research was to address two main questions regarding self-service and the changing value equation: Has the self-service value equation changed in the current downturn? How can organizations leverage information systems and customer facing technology to create new value for customers and even attract more customers? Qualitative data collection and analysis of in depth interviews of public and private sector organizations in the US and Australia were conducted from 2007-2010. To ensure accuracy and to promote triangulation, notes from interviews were transcribed, reviewed and verified by key actors in order to increase the reliability of the study (Yin, 1994). The data was coded following the methods described by Yin (1994) and Miles and Huberman (1984). Nvivo software was used for this analysis. Some organizations within the public and private sectors are surviving the economic downturn by leveraging technology to do “more with less” in order to deliver better services to customers. This has been achieved by identifying what costumers value most in order to ensure loyalty: choice, control and convenience. These organizations are particularly focusing on “customer loyalty” and “customer delight” as metrics for success. Many organizations both public and private are struggling with the challenge of identifying value, coupling that with technology strategy and delivering value. This case research provides policy makers and business practitioners with practical insight into value creation for customers or citizens using customer-facing technology.
