Prof. Reima Al-Jarf

ABSTRACT:There has been numerous news headlines and reports in the western media highlighting the role of women leaders of New Zealand, Taiwan, Iceland, Finland, Norway, Denmark, and Germany in managing the COVID-19 crisis as opposed to countries ruled by male leaders of the USA, Brazil, Russia, Spain, Italy, and France. The literature showed limited studies investigating leaders' efficiency in managing the COVID-19 crisis. This study aims to explore male and female leaders' success factors in the COVID-19 crisis management as perceived by educated Arabs. Survey results showed that 68% of the participants said that female leaders were more efficient whereas 32% believe that it is a coincident and that there is no relationship between gender and effective crisis management. The first group stated that women leader success is due to their empathy and the way they communicated with their people. Their language of discourse was full of reassurance and confidence. Women have better administrative skills. They closed borders early and implemented strict safety precautions. They excelled in acting with resilience and displaying high integrity and honesty. On the other hand, the second group indicated that there are men leaders who succeeded in managing the Pandemic. It is not solely the leader's decision. Both male and female leaders work with a team of advisors who have a role in decision making. The population size, citizens' commitment to health rules, the economic status, the healthcare budget and infrastructure, readiness of the health system to receive and treat patients, climate, whether it is a young or old society, and the rapid response from the state to the emergency played a role in managing the COVID-19 crisis. Recommendations for future research are given.

Gilbert A. Ang'ana

ABSTRACT:"What makes credible leaders?" While there is extant literature on credible leadership, there is insufficient literature that addresses the holistic exploration on the making of credible leaders to understand how everyday perceived effective credible leaders engage, interact and act to sustain their credibility. This study aimed to explore the experiences of perceived credible leaders to holistically understand their perceptions and experiences. The study employed a qualitative group interview method (n = 3; 1 woman). Data were analyzed using the constructivist grounded theory. Findings indicated that credible leadership development is an extension of the moral self of the leader. Other critical elements highlighted that form the dimensions of the making of credible leaders entail having resilience, competence, and building others. This study gives a new perspective of moral self as an antecedent to credible leadership. Further confirmatory empirical research should be conducted to deepen the understanding of the perspective of the moral self as an antecedent to credible leadership.

Mansi Singh 1 & Prof. A.K. Sinha 2

ABSTRACT:Introduction: Menri Monastery (medicine mountain) was the name of a Bon monastery in Tibet that has been refounded at Dolanji in the Sirmaur Himachal Pradesh, in 1967. The name has been derived from the medicinal plants and curative natural springs on the mountain. Focus: Two organized religious traditions have been existent in Tibet. The first is Buddhism and the second is a faith that has been referred to by its Tibetan name, Bon, ever since its introduction to the population of Tibet in the 8th century. It has been characterized by the rituals and symbols of shamanism with a vast oral tradition of "Shamanism" or "animism", and has been taken to be as a continuation of what supposedly must have been the religious practices prevalent in Tibet before the advent of Buddhism. Methodology: The fieldwork for the present study was conducted using empirical research tools of enquiry prepared for qualitative approach to data collection in and around Menri Monastery, located at Dolanji village in the Sirmaur district of Solan, Himachal Pradesh, India. Scope: Thus, here is scope for further research to clear the miasma ambiguities and misconceptions surrounding the Bon to help it attain its pristine and unique identity.

Ozoh, Joan N, Nwogwugwu, Uche C., Nwokoye, Ebele S. and Metu, Amaka G.

ABSTRACT: Despite the fact that improving household welfare is critical to achieving many of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), developing countries such as Nigeria have made little progress in improving household welfare and boosting prosperity, with the majority of the country's population still struggling to meet a basic standard of living. Adopting a quantitative research method, the study utilized Findex (2017) to investigate the impact of access to credit on household welfare. The estimation technique employed in addressing the research objectives was conditional mixed process (CMP). The study found that access to credit has a significant effect on household welfare and a higher marginal effect on women and youths. The study recommended among others that through education, policy makers should give priority to programs such as mass literacy program that will encourage poor households to be educated in order to improve the individual welfare and household access to credit. The CBN should also promote linkages between microfinance banks (MFBs) and deposit money banks (DMBs) to obtain wholesale funds for on lending. This linkage can also enable the Microfinance banks to provide Deposit financial services to its clients on behalf of the Deposit money banks.

24. Sustainability thought 160: System stability issues under the sustainability eye: Stating the market structure-population dynamics-system stability framework and its systematic implications.

Lucio Munoz*

ABSTRACT: It can be said that system stability issues like those associated with climate change are usually looked at through partial frameworks as relevant components or links are assumed to have a neutral role or are assumed not to exist in the analysis. For example, frameworks that link market structure and system stability are thought as delinked from population dynamics. On the other hand, frameworks that linked population dynamics and system stability are taken as being delinked from market structure dynamics. And therefore, the nature of the root cause; and the nature of the consequences affecting the system stability issue will depend on the specific framework being used so each partial framework has a different root cause. It can be said that system stability issues like climate change can also be looked at systematically by linking partial frameworks to generate a full general framework. For example, combining the market structure and system stability framework with the population dynamics and system stability framework we can put together a general market structure-population dynamicssystem stability framework to trace root cause and consequences affecting system stability, where market structure drives the population dynamics that affect system stability, positively or negatively. In this framework, there is only one root cause and the others factors are consequences affecting system stability. To my knowledge, no much is written about system stability issues from the sustainability point of view, where all components are linked, and the nature of the first component starts the chain of events that affect system stability. And this raises the question: How can the general market structure-population dynamics-system stability framework be stated? What are the main systematic implications of this? Among the goals of this paper is to provide answers to those questions.

25. "I" DEVELOPED ACCOUNTING THROUGH SELF-PURIFICATION TOWARDS SATTWAMBASED SELF-AWARENESS

Komang Adi Kurniawan Saputra 1*, Putu Dian Pradnyanitasari 2, PutuYudha Asteria Putri 3

ABSTRACT: Accounting has been seen as more of a technology. In general, the benefit of technology is to provide assistance to humans in an applicative way in life. As a technology, accounting provides assistance to humans in providing financial information that is useful for decision making with an economic dimension. This economic dimension makes accounting reduced. When it has been simplified as a technology that helps humans on the economic side, various assumptions of rationality inherent in humans as economic creatures emerge. With this rationality, the development of accounting is then considered to only be carried out through various mechanisms that make sense in a ratio. This can be exemplified for example when someone develops an accounting system.
