Effective to current practice in the growth of talent by versatility, the companies require expertise to work in different divisions; subsidiaries; or departments; after three to five years’ operating in a specific position, upon request for relocation or promotional activities. Nevertheless, the transfer to work requires specific talent to learn new activities and procedures through adaptation through reading over administrative tasks, as well as to gain technical expertise such as Industry 4.0, which is typically learned by being on the job and takes longer before the talent becomes fully competent to conduct its tasks linked to Industry 4.0 areas. Use eight-dimensional adaptive efficiency as the foundation, this study intends to analysis and to clarify the critical factors in Industry 4.0 job adaptation as well as to create an effective structure that accelerates the cycle of talent adaptation. This framework is expected to contribute to Malaysia Industry4WRD strategy on ‘People’ shift factor and supplement its two aspects of Personal Competence Growth and Top Management Technology Savviness. The study would examine a case study on Malaysian industries and use a semi-structured interview with selected respondents to establish the accelerated proposed adaptation mechanism for Malaysian industry talent.

This paper aims to identify the competency components of Islamic legacy planners in the event of post COVID-19 pandemic crisis in Malaysia. A qualitative approach using a multiple-case study through semi-structured interview was used. Data was gathered from a representative of full-fledged Islamic trust companies in Malaysia on what constitute as required competency components for Islamic legacy planners. In total, 4 interviews have been performed involving the decision-makers as well as c-level executives of the participating companies. It is found that there are non-standardised guidelines on recruitment of Islamic legacy planners. The majority of the respondents within the group have also chosen fiqh mawarith as the main knowledge to be acquired besides knowledge in product and solution, law and regulations. The results of this study have practical contributions to the regulatory bodies, academicians and professionals. The competency framework is recommended to the industry players in pooling competent talents in the Islamic legacy planning industry. In spite of its limitation to confine only to the full-fledged Islamic trust companies, it sheds light on competency issues within the Islamic organisations. The study would contribute to the practitioners as a guideline in recruiting their Islamic legacy planners and also for succession planning purposes. A competency model for Islamic legacy planners was proposed focusing on several components that can be used as guidance in determining the criteria needed for a competent Islamic legacy planner, which is a new dimension for Islamic legacy planning literature. The sub-objective of determining the elements of competency, as well as understanding the current practice of recruiting the Islamic legacy planners became the input in the moulding of the competency framework.

Sensing Technology

Arm recovery varies greatly among stroke survivors. Wearable surface electromyography (sEMG) sensors have been used to track recovery in research; however, sEMG is rarely used within acute and subacute clinical settings. The purpose of this case study was to describe the use of wireless sEMG sensors to examine changes in muscle activity during acute and subacute phases of stroke recovery, and understand the participant’s perceptions of sEMG monitoring. Beginning three days post-stroke, one stroke survivor wore five wireless sEMG sensors on his involved arm for three to four hours, every one to three days. Muscle activity was tracked during routine care in the acute setting through discharge from inpatient rehabilitation. Three- and eight-month follow-up sessions were completed in the community. Activity logs were completed each session, and a semi-structured interview occurred at the final session. The longitudinal monitoring of muscle and movement recovery in the clinic and community was feasible using sEMG sensors. The participant and medical team felt monitoring was unobtrusive, interesting, and motivating for recovery, but desired greater in-session feedback to inform rehabilitation. While barriers in equipment and signal quality still exist, capitalizing on wearable sensing technology in the clinic holds promise for enabling personalized stroke recovery.
