subject: Agile HR Practice; Healthcare Services; Hospitals; HR Management; Service Delivery
description: The effective management of the human resources of a hospital is essential for the delivery of high-quality healthcare services, a task that has become incredibly challenging in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic in India. The efficient management of employees is a top priority in healthcare organisations, which is why human resources (HR) plays a pivotal role in their functioning. It includes strategies for improving employee engagement, productivity, motivation, adaptability to change, welfare, and overall health in addition to traditional HR concerns. As part of this process, conducive working conditions must be created, talent management practices must be implemented, and flexibility must be provided to meet the evolving needs of healthcare professionals. The adoption of Agile HR practices is gaining momentum among hospitals in response to the dynamic challenges they face. In the Agile approach, the development cycle of 'Plan, Do, Check, and Act (PDCA)' enables real-time responsiveness. Through a qualitative research design with in-depth interviews conducted through purposive sampling, this study explores the implementation of Agile HR practices in hospitals located in Kerala and Karnataka. The research presents a novel human resources operating model, termed the 'Agile HR Model,' which advocates the integration of Agile principles into the management of healthcare employees. A key objective of this model is to enhance hospital service delivery by embracing agility and adaptability. The study provides HR managers and healthcare professionals with insights into enhancing the delivery of healthcare services. 2024, Iquz Galaxy Publisher. All rights reserved.

TOWARDS A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE: Need for Posthuman Ethics in the Anthropocene Era
subject: Philosophical Post-humanism; Post- Anthropocentrism; Post-Dualism; Post-human Ethics; Post-humanism
description: Ethics, which constitutes principles that guide human conduct, deserves particular attention in this era of the Anthropocene, when human actions greatly influence ecology. Renaissance humans have hegemonised humanistic ethics of living and interacting with the world since the Enlightenment. While exalting human exceptionalism, humanism has relegated all other forms of existence to a subservient taxonomy, categorising them as raw material for human empowerment. The self-exalted autonomous subject, homo sapiens, faces the threat of extinction in the wake of unprecedented and violent ecological reactions. The exponential growth of the agency of intelligent machines also calls to question the autonomous human agency propagated by humanism. A paradigm shift is the moments need; this paper suggests posthuman ethics as an alternative. The new worldview, post-humanism, places the homo sapiens in relation to the rest of the universe. Philosophical post-humanism, proposed by Francesca Ferrando, foregrounds posthuman ethics that are post-humanistic, post-anthropocentric, and post-dualistic. They form a roadmap towards a sustainable future. 2023 Journal of Dharma: Dharmaram Journal of Religions and Philosophies.

PHILOSOPHICAL POSTHUMANISM: A RENEWED WORLDVIEW AND A METHODOLOGICAL FRAMEWORK FOR CRITICAL ANALYSIS
subject: philosophical posthumanism; post-anthropocentrism; post-dualism; post-humanism; posthuman analysis
description: Exponential technological advances capture the zeitgeist of contemporary society. Machines are increasingly gaining agency, which helps in the deconstruction of the humanist notion of humans. Society takes a posthuman turn with large-scale humanmachine imbrication and nonhuman agency. The posthuman turn is also reflected in the academic world, which is seriously contemplating the integration of posthumanities. The philosophical posthumanism of Francisca Ferrando is a posthuman theory with three constituent elements: post-humanism, post-anthropocentrism, and post-dualism. Post-humanism revisits the definition of human that has given rise to marginalization within the human species. Post-anthropocentrism critiques the human superiority and exceptionalism that have led to the marginalization of other species. Post-dualism revisits the dualistic mindset that allows hierarchical sociopolitical constructions. Ferrando presents a vision of a posthuman utopian society that recognizes pluralistic voices within the human species on egalitarian terms, accepts and values the agency of nonhuman actors, and sheds the dualistic view of life that keeps humans and nonhumans on either side of the binary system. Philosophical posthumanism can be suitable as a methodological framework to analyze the posthuman discourses in literary works, specifically in science fiction. 2024 The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA.

Interactions between emotional and spiritual intelligence and their effects on employee performance
description: The association among worker behavior, spiritual intelligence, emotional intelligence, and system effectiveness is explained by this study. Understanding how others communicate and being aware of how one's own emotions affect others around you are all characteristics of emotional intelligence. Spiritual intelligence, which is a higher level of intelligence, reveals one's actual attributes and abilities. As company's most asset, the effectiveness of employee behavior has a significant impact on the company's ability to survive and thrive. In contrast to other facets of human conduct, employee conduct is distinguished by more formal behavior. This study aims to determine whether those with emotional and spiritual intelligence perform well at work. This research also aims to comprehend the behavior of emotionally intelligent and spiritually inclined people at work. Attempts are made in this study to ascertain whether higher levels of spiritual and emotional intelligence might boost the efficacy of these abilities. In this study, productivity at work is the dependent variable, whereas emotional intelligence and spiritual intelligence are independent variables. The parameters that can assess the variables were established using a literature review and a few common surveys. An organized survey that considers the variables is developed to gather information from the working class. To determine the link between the variables chosen for this study, the gathered data was analyzed using statistical approaches such as partial correlation and correlation. 2024 Author(s).

Behavioral Time Management Analysis: Clustering Productivity Patterns using K-Means
subject: Behavioral Analysis; Digital Tools; K-Means Clustering; Machine Learning; Productivity Patterns; Time Management
description: This paper focuses on investigating the efficiency profile through the three-time management behaviors using the K-Means clustering method. In the case of the study, the data gathered from digital time management tools for 100 participants for one month was preprocessed to distil features surrounding productivity, including daily working hours, focus time, break duration and frequency, and task completion ratios. The four groups that were agreed upon through K-Means clustering differed in terms of time management behaviours and productivity. Insert table 6 IT cluster 1 worked long hours with high productivity owing to the fact that they are IT professionals but had a tendency of multitasking. Employment Cluster 2 (marketing and sales professionals) achieved both personal and work-related self-care but identified the need for more concentrated time per task. As for the differences in the breaks, it can be noted that cluster 3 (management and administration personnel) had significantly higher task completion times and focus times, but their break intervals needed to be optimized. Hypothesis 2 stated that there will be many hours of leisure for Cluster 4 (students and interns) imply that their work hours should be adjusted to several small tasks a day, and their rates of task completion should be increased. From the study, it is possible to stress that time management should be considered as an individual activity that requires specific approaches to the given subject area and to the learner in particular. Specifically, demographic profiling identified the roles that age and occupational status may play in averting or exacerbating productivity deficiencies: insights that could be actionable in specific scenarios. The implications of this research offer practical insights into individual and organizational time management, as the usability aspects of machine learning techniques were considered and their applicability established, which further extends the scope of time …

Optimal allocation algorithm of marketing resources based on improved random forest
subject: allocation algorithm; Improved random forest; marketing; resource optimization
description: Random Forest algorithm is an ensemble learning algorithm that classifies data by combining multiple decision trees. It has a wide range of applications and is not easy to overfit. It has a wide range of applications in medicine, bioinformatics, management and other fields. By studying the Cobb-Douglas sales function, it is found that it can only analyze the static allocation of marketing resources, but cannot describe the dynamic changes. Enterprise marketing resource management runs through the enterprise management from beginning to end. The research on marketing resource management is helpful for enterprises to grasp and control the whole process of marketing resource management from the overall and overall level, and has important theoretical value and reality for enterprise marketing management activities. significance. In the vast majority of enterprises in our country, the size of advertising promotion expenses and the number of salesmen is often determined based on the experience and subjective assumptions of decision makers, so it is difficult to say that they are optimized. This paper starts with determining the optimal advertising budget and the number of salespeople, and conducts applied research on the optimal allocation of marketing resources. 2023 IEEE.

Machine Learning Integration for Enhanced Solar Power Generation Forecasting
description: This paper reviews the advancements in machine learning techniques for enhanced solar power generation forecasting. Solar energy, a potent alternative to traditional energy sources, is inherently intermittent due to its weather-dependent nature. Accurate forecasting of photovoltaic power generation (PVPG) is paramount for the stability and reliability of power systems. The review delves into a deep learning framework that leverages the long short-term memory (LSTM) network for precise PVPG forecasting. A novel approach, the physics-constrained LSTM (PCLSTM), is introduced, addressing the limitations of conventional machine learning algorithms that rely heavily on vast data. The PC-LSTM model showcases superior forecasting capabilities, especially with sparse data, outperforming standard LSTM and other traditional methods. Furthermore, the paper examines a comprehensive study from Morocco, comparing six machine learning algorithms for solar energy production forecasting. The study underscores the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) as the most effective predictive model, offering optimal parameters for real-world applications. Such advancements not only bolster the accuracy of solar energy forecasting but also pave the way for sustainable energy solutions, emphasizing the integration of these findings in practical applications like predictive maintenance of PV power plants.

Ethical Integrity and Performance in Isolation: An Intrinsic Motivation Mediated Focus
description: This research investigates the mediating influence of intrinsic motivation on employee isolation and job performance of work-from-anywhere Information Technology professionals in India. Intrinsic motivation and ethical integrity are fundamentally intertwined, each enhancing and reinforcing the other. The lenses of the self-determination theory underpin the study. The research questions covered in the study are: (a) Does employee isolation affect job performance? (b) Does intrinsic motivation during employee isolation affect job performance? (c) Does intrinsic motivation mediate the connection between employee isolation and job performance? The SEM based approach survey was conducted to collect data from 410 IT employees who work from anywhere for a minimum of one or more days per week. The findings indicate that (a) employee isolation has a negative influence on job performance, (b) intrinsic motivation significantly influences job performance during employee isolation, and (c) intrinsic motivation mediates indirect-only (full mediation) the link between employee isolation and job performance. The employers need to build upon intrinsic motivation tools for work-from-anywhere Information Technology professionals, which ensures employees relatedness by giving rewards, a sense of purpose towards assignments, autonomy through intrinsic motivation and ethical integrity, and developing IT expertise, which significantly increases performance among employees in work isolation situations. Through the lens of self-determination theory, the research contributes to the work-from-anywhere literature by exploring the relations between employee isolation, job performance, and the mediating influence of intrinsic motivation on IT professionals in India in the current scenario.

Sustainable human resource management and job satisfactionUnlocking the power of organizational identification: A cross-cultural perspective from 54 countries
subject: individualismcollectivism; job satisfaction; organizational identification; sustainable HRM practices
description: Sustainable human resource management is gaining importance in organizations due to its role in developing a sustainable work environment and well-being. This paper discusses the relationship between employee perceptions of sustainable human resource management and job satisfaction in 54 countries. We propose that sustainable HRM is positively associated with job satisfaction but that this relationship is moderated by employees' identification with the organization and country-level individualismcollectivism. Thus, we suggest national culture functions as a second-level moderator of the relationship of sustainable HRM with organizational identification on job satisfaction. Findings from the multi-level analyses using data from 14,502 employees nested within 54 countries provided support for our hypotheses, namely that employee perceptions of sustainable HRM were positively associated with job satisfaction and that this relationship was more pronounced for employees with lower levels compared to higher levels of organizational identification in individualistic rather than collectivistic countries. These findings bear important implications for both theory and practice. 2024 ERP Environment and John Wiley & Sons Ltd.

Putting sustainable human resource management and workplace eudaimonic well-being into cross-cultural context
subject: Eudaimonic well-being; Individualism-collectivism; Model of culture fit; Self determination theory; Sustainable HRM; Work engagement
description: This study examines how sustainable human resource management (HRM) impacts employee work engagement and eudaimonic well-being across cultural contexts that differ on individualism-collectivism dimension. Theoretically, the study draws from Self-Determination Theory (SDT; Ryan & Deci, 2017) and the model of culture fit (Aycan et al., 1999). Using data from 14,502 employees nested in 54 countries working in a variety of positions across different sectors, we found support for our hypothesized modelthat is, sustainable HRM was positively related to employee eudaimonic well-being via enhanced work engagement. The study found that one moderating effectthe relationship between work engagement and eudaimonic well-beingwas stronger in countries that are more individualistic rather than collectivistic. The findings provide support for the universality of the SDT-based approach to understanding employee experiences based on sustainable HRM and cultural variations that inform work-related eudaimonic well-being. Our study advances existing cross-cultural research on sustainable HRM and employee well-being. 2026 Elsevier Ltd.

Coping with Public and Private Face-to-Face and Cyber Victimization among Adolescents in Six Countries: Roles of Severity and Country
subject: bullying; coping; country; culture; cyberbullying; severity; victimization
description: This study investigated the role of medium (face-to-face, cyber) and publicity (public, private) in adolescents perceptions of severity and coping strategies (i.e., avoidant, ignoring, helplessness, social support seeking, retaliation) for victimization, while accounting for gender and cultural values. There were 3432 adolescents (ages 1115, 49% girls) in this study; they were from China, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, India, Japan, and the United States. Adolescents completed questionnaires on individualism and collectivism, and ratings of coping strategies and severity for public face-to-face victimization, private face-to-face victimization, public cyber victimization, and private cyber victimization. Findings revealed similarities in adolescents coping strategies based on perceptions of severity, publicity, and medium for some coping strategies (i.e., social support seeking, retaliation) but differential associations for other coping strategies (i.e., avoidance, helplessness, ignoring). The results of this study are important for prevention and intervention efforts because they underscore the importance of teaching effective coping strategies to adolescents, and to consider how perceptions of severity, publicity, and medium might influence the implementation of these coping strategies. 2022 by the authors.

Bioactive Phytochemicals from DatePalm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) Seed Oil Processing By-products
subject: Biofuel; Fatty acids; Phoenix dactylifera; Phytochemicals; Seed oil; Valorization
description: Humans cultivate plants for their daily commodities, like food and medicines. Innumerable varieties of crops and plant-derived products like cotton, fruits, vegetables, grains, pulses, and oils have been developed. A variety of seed oils have been used by humankind in dietary supplements and regarded as feedstock for the production of biofuels. Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) is one such plant used in the production of oil. Date palm is a commercial fruit that is primarily cultivated in South Mediterranean countries. Date palm fruit and its processed products such as jams, jellies, and syrup are globally consumed. However, tons of seed waste is generated after processing and raises environmental problems due to poor seed waste disposal practices. Scientific reports suggest that date palm seed oil is a rich in minerals, fatty acids, and various phytochemicals like phenols, flavonoids, sterols, and tocopherols. These bioactive molecules possess significant pharmacological activities like antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and hepatoprotectivity. This chapter summarizes the phytochemicals present in the date palm seed oil, discusses the fatty acid composition in various date palm cultivars worldwide, and highlights the pharmacological activities exhibited by the date seed oil. The chapter also discusses the effective utilization of date seed oil in the food and pharmaceutical industry and the seed oil by-products in biofuel production. Pharmaceuticals and biofuel production presents an excellent opportunity for the valorization of date palm cultivation and economic returns. 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
