Performance management systems (PMSs) in private secondary education are vital, and although several tried and tested public sector performance measurement models exist, limited private secondary school performance measurement models exist in South Africa. This study aims to empirically validate...

Expected goals (xG) are widely used to evaluate football performance. However, it is unclear whether players who consistently outperform their xG do so because of skill or because of luck. To our knowledge, this paper provides the first meta-analytic estimate of between-player heterogeneity in...

The prior literature has predominantly emphasized the role of large firms exerting coercive power within supply chains to enhance sustainability outcomes. However, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) often experience a reverse dynamic in which external pressures from supply chain agents...

This study aims to explore the relationship between a company manager's activities and their impact on business performance. Networking is considered a worthy factor in professional and organizational success, providing access to important research, industry insights and future partnerships....

A large body of research across management, psychology, accounting, and economics shows that subjective performance evaluations are systematically biased: ratings cluster near the midpoint of scales and are often excessively lenient. As organizations increasingly adopt large language models...

This study investigates the role of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance in reshaping the relationship between financial constraints and green innovation among Chinese listed firms from 2010 to 2023. We examine the double-edged sword hypothesis that financial constraints...

This study, focused on sustainable finance and management accounting, explores the analytical triad of vsCHA (Value and Supply Chain Analysis), COA (Cost Analysis), and CIA (Continuous Improvement Analysis), examining their interactions and their impact on firm sustainability. Data were...

The growing demand for transparency in sustainability reporting has compelled enterprises to look far beyond the boundaries of classical financial ratios when assessing their own performance. Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) indicators have dominated recent academic debate-primarily...

Background: The transition toward Industry 4.0 and Supply Chain 5.0 requires performance measurement frameworks that integrate efficiency, digitalization, and sustainability indicators. Although the SCOR® 4.0 model provides standardized metrics, it lacks predictive capabilities under complex...

Background: This study presents a bibliometric analysis of key performance indicators (KPIs) for sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) in small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Despite growing academic attention, particularly after 2020, important gaps remain in how sustainability...

This study utilizes the gravity model of international trade to analyze the effects of logistics performance (LPI) and green logistics performance (GLPI) on intra-regional export value among the 10 ASEAN member states during the 2010-2018 period. The findings reveal that: (i) The LPI of both...

A large body of research across management, psychology, accounting, and economics shows that subjective performance evaluations are systematically biased: ratings cluster near the midpoint of scales and are often excessively lenient. As organizations increasingly adopt large language models...

This study explores the mediating role of innovation output in the relationship between green management and the performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).This research is based on a dataset collected by the Ibero-American SME Observatory, comprising 3,966 manufacturing SMEs in...

The pharmaceutical supply chain is vital to hospital operations but faces persistent challenges, including drug shortages, regulatory constraints, and inventory inefficiencies. This study explores the application of the Triple-A Supply Chain (TASC) framework agility, adaptability, and alignment...

This study investigates the financial and strategic implications of ESG implementation in the hotel sector, focusing on cost structures, stakeholder engagement, and risk-related outcomes. Empirical evidence remains limited in tourism-intensive economies, particularly regarding operational...

1. Purpose: In this study, we aim to establish whether sustainable enterprises can increase their crowdfunding success by communicating non-financial performance (NFP) metrics that enhance (different types of) organizational legitimacy with investors in a crowdfunding market. 2. Study design: We...

Background: Amid rising trade, urbanization, and carbon emissions in MENA countries, sustainable logistics faces major constraints. This study develops an enhanced Green Logistics Performance Index (GLPI) using min-max normalization and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to integrate the World...

This paper reviews the empirical literature on performance persistence in private equity (PE). It argues that observed persistence reflects three interacting forces: managerial skill, structural advantages, and measurement artefacts. It compares findings across return metrics, units of analysis,...

Background: Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices have evolved from regulatory requirements to strategic drivers of competitiveness and long-term value creation, particularly in road freight logistics, where environmental impacts, greenhouse gas emissions, labor relations, and...

Evaluation metrics are essential in selecting the most appropriate predictive model. Conventional metrics such as R-squared, root mean squared error (RMSE), and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) rely on arithmetic averages, making them sensitive to outliers, undefined values, and scale...

Most scholarly impact measures focus exclusively on an essential but single group of stakeholders: other researchers. However, business research aims to benefit not only other researchers (i.e., internal) but also additional (i.e., external) stakeholders. Accordingly, we offer an expanded...

In a context characterized by increasing competitive pressure, supply chain collaboration has gained greater relevance and lean principles have been integrated into supply chain management to address the challenge of achieving better organizational performance. The purpose of this study is to...
