<p>A better understanding of entrepreneurship in different sectors and its motivations, roles, and challenges offer new opportunities for entrepreneurs to start their business and participate in the national and global economy. This research studied the different entrepreneurial factors that influence the growth stage of public relations companies in Vietnam. In particular, the research examined how the founder's role shifted during the growth stage, and the motivations behind the founder's decision to retain or release their control in this stage. Using the inductive, grounded theory approach to explore the decision of a founder in Vietnam’s public relations industry during a company’s growth stage, this study found that public relations founders in Vietnam are generally driven by the accomplishments and challenges picked up from their entrepreneurial journey. Their journey mainly revolves around managerial experience, as the managerial tasks would be more complicated and require better managerial skills to address the challenges. They are also open to delegating their role to a professional manager, who already possesses the required management skills, to support the business.</p><p><em><strong>Abstrak dalam Bahasa Indonesia.</strong> Pemahaman yang lebih baik tentang kewirausahaan di berbagai sektor dan motivasi, peran, dan tantangannya menawarkan peluang baru bagi pengusaha untuk memulai bisnis mereka dan berpartisipasi dalam pembangunan ekonomi nasional dan global.

AbstractActivism can involve an individual or a collection of a few people. The practice of activism is often perceived as negative and destructive actions. In the literature of public relations, we will discover how the activist group pressure group categorized into the “source of trouble” and must be addressed by public relations practitioners. This perspective led to a bias that leads to marginalization of “activist public” in public relations literature. Marginalization process lasts through two methods: (1) the provision of which tend negative stigma, (2) the dominance of the paradigm of “corporate centric” in the literature of public relations. This article presents an alternative paradigm of the postmodern paradigm in view of the role and functions of the public activists.AbstrakAktivisme bisa melibatkan seorang individu ataupun kumpulan beberapa orang. Praktek aktivisme seringkali dipersepsikan sebagai tindakan yang negatif dan destruktif. Dalam literatur public relation, kita akan menemukan bagaimana kelompok aktivis dikategorikan kedalam kelompok penekan yang menjadi “sumber masalah” dan harus diatasi oleh praktisi public relations. Perspektif ini memunculkan bias yang mengarah pada marjinaliasi “publik aktivis” dalam literature public relation. Proses marjinalisasi berlangsung melalui dua cara: (1) pemberian stigma yang bertendensi negative, (2) adanya dominasi paradigma “corporate centric” dalam literatur public relation. Artikel ini menyajikan alternatif paradigma yakni paradigma postmodern dalam melihat peran dan fungsi publik aktivis.Keywords: Public Activist, Corporate Centric, Marginalization.

Background In the South African context, the Nurse Manager (NM) is responsible for and manages the nursing side of the health care organisation. Public hospitals face the challenges of poor management, underfunding, deteriorating infrastructure and poor standards. The consequences are that NMs have to do more with less. This necessitates that the NMs should have the competencies and skills to enable them to use the existing resources more efficiently and equitably and be able to manage and contain costs within their departments. However, NMs do not necessarily have financial management skills and competencies to manage the current health care financial situation. This then highlights the need for financial preparation of all NMs. Aim The aim of the study was to explore the financial management roles of NMs in their current work environments, identify financial management development needs necessary for NM practice, and ultimately to develop a financial management framework to improve the skills of NMs. Methodology A qualitative, grounded theory approach was used to explore the financial management skills and competencies and developmental needs of NMs. Nursing Managers, Financial Managers, Operational Managers and Chief Executive Officers of public hospitals in KwaZulu-Natal participated in the study. The data was collected by means of interviews. The sample size for the interviews was guided by data saturation and comprised 18 participants. Findings The study findings revealed that NMs are involved in financial management activities within the hospitals. However, they do not necessarily have the requisite financial management skills and competencies to function in their financial roles. From the findings the researcher was able to propose and develop a framework to improve the financial management competencies of NMs in the public sector. It was concluded that NMs do indeed practice financial management and therefore require the relevant knowledge, skills and competencies. Recommendations include the development of a financial management training programme to be implemented based on the identified needs of NMs in the public sector. Another recommendation is that undergraduate and post graduate nursing programmes include financial management programmes that would be relevant and applicable to the specific financial management activities that nurses practice daily.
