The big challenge for each company is the implementation of an appropriate risk management strategy. Through this work, we seek to draw up an inventory of Moroccan companies supply chain. The objective is to identify the main risks, their relationship with the performance of the supply chain and to establish an overview of the risk management systems. For this reason, a research model was developed and concretized by quantitative data collected from 29 Moroccan companies. The analysis of the data show that the performance of the supply chain is strongly influenced by the importance of supply chain risk in particular the supplier and demand risks, and leads to insist on the importance of integrating a device adapted to the management of these Risks, especially in the upstream part of the supply chain.

<p><em>The purpose of this research </em><em>is </em><em>to explain influence</em><em> of</em><em> </em><em>conflict</em><em> management</em><em> strategy </em><em>on teamwork</em><em> performance</em><em>. This kind of</em><em> conflict can happen to everyone and</em><em> in any places disregarding</em><em> status, income and position. Someone who ca</em><em>n not</em><em> manage conflict</em><em>s</em><em> will </em><em>have a</em><em> threat</em><em> for his</em><em> personal performance</em><em>,</em><em> and </em><em>unfortunately, </em><em>company’s performance will </em><em>also gain</em><em> the effect. </em><em>Accordingly</em><em>, we need a strategy to manage  conflict</em><em>s</em><em> as a</em><em>n</em><em> effort to create a good performance </em><em>for</em><em> individual employee performance a</em><em>s well as tha</em><em> team performance. </em><em>The p</em><em>opulation af this research is</em><em> the</em><em> entire educational employee</em><em>s</em><em> in UNNES by taking some samples using propotional sampling </em><em>to </em><em>around 88 samples</em><em>. </em><em>The result of this research  prove</em><em>s</em><em> that hypothesis stat</em><em>ing</em><em> “conflict</em><em> management</em><em> strategy” influenced positively and significantly </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>teamwork performance</em><em> is accepted. This</em><em> explain</em><em>s that </em><em>conflict</em><em> management</em><em> strategy can give contribution to</em><em> the</em><em> teamwork performance through employee’s </em><em>ability</em><em> to accomodate ideas from partner</em><em>s</em><em> of work, avoid </em><em>disputes</em><em> by respect</em><em>ing</em><em> each other, </em><em>maintaining</em><em> communicati</em><em>on</em><em> and </em><em>conduct</em><em> colaboration </em><em>on</em><em> work</em><em>ing</em><em> method</em><em>s</em><em>. </em><em>It is s</em><em>uggest</em><em>ed</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> this research should improve strateg</em><em>ies</em><em> in managing conflict</em><em>s</em><em> such as strat</em><em>egies</em><em> to compete </em><em>at</em><em> work by giving chance to other partner to use theirs skill in making decision and finding solution to solve the job.</em></p><em>Keywords: conflict management strategy, teamwork’s performance, educational employee</em>

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to carry out structural analysis of potential supply chain risks and performance measures in fresh food retail by applying interpretive structural modeling (ISM). Design/methodology/approach – Inputs were taken from industry experts in identifying and understanding interdependencies among food retail supply chain risks on different levels (sourcing and logistics outside the retail stores; storage and customer interface at the stores). Interdependencies among risks and their impact on performance measures are structured into a hierarchy in order to derive subsystems of interdependent elements to derive useful insights for theory and practice. Findings – Using the ISM approach the risks and performance measures were clustered according to their driving power and dependence power. Change in/inadequate government regulations’ are at the bottom level of the hierarchy implying highest driving power and require higher attention and focussed mitigation strategies. Risks like lack of traceability, transport delays/breakdowns and temperature abuse, cross-contamination in transport and storage have medium driver and dependence powers. Research limitations/implications – The approach is focussed on food retail supply chains in the Indian context and thereby limits the ability to generalize the findings. The academics and experts were selected on convenience and availability. Practical implications – It gives managers a better understanding of the risks and performance measures that have most influence on others (driving performance measures) and those measures which are most influenced by others (dependent performance measures) in fresh food retail and also a tool to prioritize them. This kind of information is strategic for managers who can use it to identify which performance measures they should concentrate on managing the trade-offs between measures. The findings and the applicability for practical use have been validated by both experts and practicing managers in food retail supply chains. Originality/value – The work is perhaps the first to link supply chain risks with performance and explains the propagation of risks in food retail supply chains. It contributes to theory by addressing a few research gaps and provides relevant managerial insights for practitioners.

Leagile supply chain integrates lean supply chain and agile supply chain. In this paper, the theory of lean production and agile manufacturing are compared and analyzed, and then the leagile supply chain model and the performance evaluation system based on DEA are established. Based on the above, this paper provides an example of the evaluation system to verify the operability and effectiveness, which can provide the reference for enterprises to improve operating mode of the supply chain or develop a new leagile supply chain.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to identify the roles of trait affectivity and momentary moods in conflict frames and conflict management. This paper goes beyond affect induction and focuses on the affective – rather than rational – antecedents of the choice of conflict management strategy. Design/methodology/approach – This paper adopts a within- and between-person approach and uses hierarchical linear modeling to test the hypotheses with group-mean centering. Over the course of 12 days within a three-week period, the authors collected participants’ momentary moods and how they thought about and would respond to conflict scenarios. Data were gathered from 1,545 observations, involving 180 individuals. Findings – After controlling for anger raised from the conflict scenario, both positive trait affectivity and positive momentary moods were found to be positively related to a compromise frame. Surprisingly, neither negative trait affectivity nor momentary mood was related to the win frame. A compromise frame predicted a cooperative strategy, and a win frame predicted a competitive strategy. The relationships between trait and momentary affects and conflict management strategy were partially mediated by conflict frame, but only for positive affects. Practical implications – If seeking a constructive resolution, choose the right person (i.e. an individual with positive trait affectivity) and the right moment (i.e. the individual is in a positive mood state) to communicate disagreements. Originality/value – This paper sheds light on the prediction of conflict frame and conflict management behavior by testing trait affectivity and momentary mood simultaneously.
