Influence of COVID-19 on Taiwan’s manufacturing, procurement, and sales relationship

Against the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic, Taiwan’s economic sectors have experienced a decline in activity. Addressing this situation effectively necessitates Taiwan to strategically align its transnational supply ecosystem with global consumption patterns, positioning itself as a crucial industrial collaborator for co-creation and shared prosperity. This study utilizes a comprehensive framework that encompasses manufacturing, procurement, and sales. Data related to Taiwan’s industries are collected through a questionnaire, and the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) multivariate statistical method is utilized for factor and path analyses to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on these industries. Based on the responses from the questionnaire, the dominant sectors in Taiwan’s industries are electronics/electrical machinery, accounting for around 40.84% of the industry, followed by metals/machinery at approximately 20.90%. Notably, specific aspects concerning manufacturing manpower, procurement and delivery processes, sales revenue, and product costs were reported as “somewhat serious” on average during the COVID-19 period. The results of this research indicate that manufacturing does not significantly influence sales. Additionally, there is a significant positive correlation between manufacturing and procurement. Given the unpredictable changes that companies and entire industries are currently facing, it is crucial to implement strategic measures. Because of COVID-19 influence, organizations, companies, and sectors have undergone significant transformation, necessitating the implementation of the necessary protections. In this situation, the concept of organizational resilience becomes crucial.

The dairy industry is considered one of the most needed industries in almost every country; this is due to the continuous daily demand of its different products. Nevertheless, this industry consumes large amount of water, energy and material resources, and generates large quantities of liquid and solid wastes. In the sequel, under the pressure of fulfilling the 17 sustainable development goals (17 SDGs), it is important to address the sustainability of this sector in the world and particularly in developing countries. This study aims at assessing the impact of environmental, economic and social sustainability practices on the organizational performance of dairy industry in Palestine. To this end, a quantitative-research approach, based on a questionnaire for data collection, was adopted. Data has been collected from a convenient sample of 15 dairy factories working in West Bank in Palestine during a three-month period from March to May, 2023. Inferential statistical analyses were conducted as well. The results revealed that there is a difference between the median values of environmental and economic practices. In addition, the results showed that there is a medium relationship between sustainability practices and organizational performance. However, the economic practices proved to have the strongest impact then social practices; while, there is no impact of environmental practices on organizational performance.

How does organizational support for creativity affect research and development (R&D) employees’ innovative behavior?

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the relationships among organizational support for creativity, employees’ creative self-efficacy, job satisfaction, and employees’ innovative behavior in the Chinese pharmaceutical manufacturing industry.Design/methodology/approach: A quota sample (n = 385) and a quantitative research methodology were employed in this study.Data from R&D staff at Chinese pharmaceutical manufacturing companies was gathered using an online survey. The study examined the validity and reliability of the measuring tools as well as the variables’ correlation analysis. Using structural equation modeling (SEM), hypotheses were investigated. The specific indirect impacts were quantified through the use of bootstrapping.Findings:The investigation indicates that organizational support is positively related to employees’ innovative behavior. Employee inventive behavior and organizational support for creativity are positively impacted by the twin mediation roles that creative self-efficacy and work satisfaction levels play. Job satisfaction was found to have a greater impact on inventive behavior among employees compared to creative self-efficacy in terms of size. Research, practical, and social implications: In addition to fostering the interdisciplinary application of psychology and organizational behavior, this study creates a dual-mediation model that bridges the gap in the mechanisms of individual cognitive and attitudinal roles between organizational support for creativity and employee innovative behavior. Furthermore, this research advances management strategies and fosters innovation in the pharmaceutical manufacturing sector.Originality/value: From the perspective of individual perceptions and attitudes, this study examined the mechanism of action between employees’ innovative behaviors and the organizational support for creativity among employees. This investigation offers a fresh viewpoint on the factors influencing employees’ innovative behaviors. The research enhances our comprehension of the correlation between employee job contentment, their belief in their creative abilities, and their capacity for innovative performance. The outcomes of the study can offer valuable perspectives for executives in the business realm.
