The prime objective of the current study is to examine the impact of knowledge sharing and employee ambidexterity on the sustainable performance of manufacturing firms operating in the KPK province of Pakistan. In addition to this, the study has examined the mediating role of employees’ ambidexterity in the relationship between knowledge sharing and sustainable performance. The final sample included 240 respondents, which represented a response rate of 68%. The study employed SEM-PLS for data analysis. The results indicate that the employee’s ambidexterity fully mediates between knowledge sharing and sustainable performance. Knowledge sharing appears as a significant determinant of employees’ ambidexterity and sustainable performance. Meanwhile, the employee’s ambidexterity also has a positive and significant relationship with sustainable performance. In the field of Management Sciences and other disciplines, knowledge sharing is considered a significant field of study. Globally, very little research has targeted these variables. This research offers conceptual highlights for developing the influence of knowledge sharing on the sustainable performance of employees particularly in the manufacturing sector.

The prime objective of the current study is to investigate the impact of the atmospheric stimuli on revisit intention. In addition to that, the study has examined the mediating role of perceived image in the relationship between atmospheric stimuli and revisit intention. Finally, the moderating role word of mouth in the relationship between perceived image and revisit intention has been examined. The study has broached the issues related to sensory marketing. Sensory marketing is a new concept which is evolved more in the last two decades. It is part of experientialmarketing. Sensory marketing is considered as revolutionary area in the field of marketing in which emotions and perceptions are evoked by the marketers by targeting five senses of human. The expectations can be exceeded by the organization for the customers by targeting more than one sense. When external factors are used to stimulate the human senses, a memorable experience is created, which help in building a positive image in the mind of customers, which later on has an impact on the retention of customers as well. However, the current study has filled this gap. However, this study is among the pioneering studies on this issue Employing the survey-based methodology; the SEM-PLS technique is used to test the hypothesized relationships. So,the current study has used SEM-PLS as a statistical tool to answer the research questions raised in this study and research objectives envisaged in the current stud, and the data is collected from the tourist in Indonesia. The findings of the study have provided support to the theoretical foundation and proposed hypothesis of the current study. The current study will be helpful for policymakers and practitioners in understanding the issues atmospheric stimuli on revisit intention.

Innovation performance is the fundamental factor for firms to survive and achieve competitive advantage in the context of increasing competitive pressure. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impacts of two key components of transformational leadership (TL) namely idealized influence and individualized consideration on knowledge sharing (KS), as well as their influences on firm’s innovation performance. The paper used Structural Equations Modeling (SEM) to elaborate the relationship among these latent factors through using survey data gathered from 235 participants of 60 medium and small-sized firms in Vietnam. The findings reveal that KS activities of employees play a crucial role in improving firm’s innovation performance, and serve as a mediating role in the effects of TL on innovation performance. Moreover, the findings highlight the impact of individualized consideration on innovation performance in comparison with the impact of idealized influence on innovation performance. In general, the findings of this study have advanced the understanding and brought new initiatives for Vietnamese firms to follow and improve its innovation performance.

AbstractIndividuals experiencing socioeconomic disadvantage in childhood have a higher rate of inflammation-related diseases decades later. Little is known about the mechanisms linking early life experiences to the functioning of the immune system in adulthood. To address this, we explore the relationship across social-to-biological layers of early life social exposures on levels of adulthood inflammation and the mediating role of gene regulatory mechanisms, epigenetic and transcriptomic profiling from blood, in 2,329 individuals from two European cohort studies. Consistently across both studies, we find transcriptional activity explains a substantive proportion (78% and 26%) of the estimated effect of early life disadvantaged social exposures on levels of adulthood inflammation. Furthermore, we show that mechanisms other than cis DNA methylation may regulate those transcriptional fingerprints. These results further our understanding of social-to-biological transitions by pinpointing the role of gene regulation that cannot fully be explained by differential cis DNA methylation.
