This study was conducted to evaluate job satisfaction and problems encountered by sales consultants at ADESE shopping stores in Konya Province. The sample size was determined to be 189 participants, utilizing a non-clustered simple random sampling method by the main population rates. The research analyzed several key factors, including the demographic characteristics of the sales consultants, internal communication, teamwork and satisfaction within the unit, social and physical work environments, management style, decision-making processes, employee participation, rewards and motivation, relationships with managers, general job satisfaction, and perceptions of job-related problems. To analyze the factors affecting job satisfaction among the sales consultants, logistic regression analysis was employed. The results indicated that improvements in internal communication, social work environment, relationships with managers, management style, decision-making, and perceptions of participation had a positive influence on job satisfaction, whereas an increase in job-related problems was found to negatively impact job satisfaction.
The current business environment characterized by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA) advances numerous challenges for organizations. To respond effectively to these changing demands, traditional approaches to solving problems often prove inadequate in this dynamic context. A new approach, the ProCESS methodology, was developed and tested in the last three years within an Erasmus+ consortium in four European countries. This approach stimulates unconventional thinking and the finding of creative solutions for real-world business challenges. The aim of this perspective paper is to present the research data collected in two Romanian companies by testing ProCESS methodology. In the discussion section, the paper highlights the potential of this methodology that uses various artistic tools like drawing, music, modeling, or meditation to encourage participants to tap into their sensory, emotional, and spiritual sides for finding new and unexpected solutions. The paper also discusses potential influences on organizational culture and employee well-being.
In order to effectively reduce the workload of primary and secondary school students and the burden of off-campus training, and promote the effective improvement of the teaching and education level of schools at all levels and types, the General Office of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Opinions on Students' Homework Burden and Off-campus Training Burden" (referred to as "double reduction"). Students' homework practice is a supplement and continuation of classroom teaching, which can consolidate and promote the quality of students' learning. This paper analyzes some problems in the design of primary school Chinese homework from three aspects, such as homework volume, homework type, and homework arrangement, and puts forward corresponding strategies for the optimization path of primary school Chinese homework design under the background of "double reduction".
This paper describes the significance, content, progress and corresponding basic theory and experimental research methods of micron/nanometer scale thermal science and engineering, which is one of the latest cutting-edge disciplines, and analyzes the effects of micron nanometer devices on the scale effect series of challenging hot issues, discussed the corresponding emergence of some new phenomena and new concepts, pointed out that the micron/nano thermal science aspects of the recent development of several types of theory and experimental technology success and shortcomings, and summed up a number for the exploration of the new ways and new directions, especially on some typical micron/nano-thermal devices and micro-scale biological heat transfer in some important scientific issues and their engineering applications were introduced.
Control of key technological and benchmark flows of polymer fluids poses a number of challenges. Some of them are nowadays under active investigation and rather far from complete understanding. This review considers such phenomena as both practically important and governed by fundamental laws of rheology and non-linear fluid mechanics. We observe, shear bands in polymeric and other complex structured fluids (like wormlike micellar solutions or soft glassy materials), birefrigerent strands, peculiarities of stress and pressure losses in fluids moving through complex shape domains. These and other processes involve inhomogeneity, instabilities and transient modes creeping in flow fields. In practical aspect this is of interest in such industrial process as polymer flooding for Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), where a flow inhomogeneity affects a polymer solution injectivity and residual oil saturation. The value of viscoelasticity in the polymer flooding is estimated. The observation is concluded by some new results on relation between polymer concentration in solutions and viscoelastic traits of benchmark flows.
