Abstract

Objective: HRBPs working in the State-owned entity (SOE) industry face a few challenges that inhibit them from being true partners to senior management teams. This research concentrated on whether coaching skills could be included in the Human Resource Business Partner (HRBP) competency model and assist HRBPS in their engagement with senior managers. Research Design & Methods: A qualitative research design was selected to gain insights from the perspectives of HRBPs employed in SOEs in Gauteng, South Africa. All participants had over two years of relevant HRBP experience and participated in a semi-structured interview to solicit their perspectives. The data was consequently analysed using thematic analysis. Findings: The key findings are that the SOE industry is complex to navigate due to the high levels of red tape and capacity constraints. The benefits of coaching, which include enhanced levels of organisational performance and leadership self-awareness, will be achieved in the engagement between HRBPs and senior managers. Furthermore, additional training of all HRBPs on the proposed coaching skills was supported as it was found to be a probable solution to re-position HRBPs as strategic business partners. Contribution & Value Added: This paper positions coaching as a central skill for HRBPs, specifically in the SOE environment in South Africa, by combining two leading competency frameworks, the Ulrich and GSAEC competency frameworks. Although HR is an established field, coaching is relatively emerging with limited frameworks for the profession. This paper addresses the need for guiding frameworks where the two professions intersect.

Data collection was done using self-administered questionnaires to collect data from 231 HR Managers (or their equivalent) in Tanzania SACCOS with a specific focus on the Dar es Salaam region. Simple random sampling technique was used to sample the respondents. Questionnaires were distributed to the respondents who were asked to fill correct and relevant information. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis. Findings: The study found a significant positive relationship between recruitment methods and SACCOS performance, selection criteria and SACCOS performance, and selection process and SACCOS performance. Further, workforce diversity had a significant moderating effect on the relationship between recruitment and selection and SACCOS performance. Implications & Recommendations: The use of effective recruitment and selection practices is capable of enhancing performance of SACCOS in Tanzania. Diversified workforce in SACCOS is capable of moderating the relationship between recruitment and selection and SACCOS performance. The study recommends the use of best practices in recruiting employees in SACCOS and ensures workforce diversity is embraced in these organizations for an improved organizational performance. Contribution & Value Added: The study extends the literature on the influence of recruitment and selection practices on organisational performance with specific reference to Tanzania SACCOS something that the existed body of knowledge missed. As per the reviewed literature, this is the first study to examine the influence of recruitment and selection on performance of SACCOS in Tanzania.

Abstract

Objective: To understand the entrepreneurial identity, through the lived experience of female entrepreneurs who are familiar with the phenomenon. This objective was premised on understanding that entrepreneurial identity is a product of context which shapes the social-cultural norms and environment within which individuals, operate and construct their identity. This is captured in entrepreneurship scholarship where the discipline is still struggling to build a reliable definition of female entrepreneurship applicable to both developed and developing countries and its effect on their respective economies. Research Design & Methods: This study used a qualitative research design that followed a phenomenological approach with thirty five female entrepreneurs, utilising semi structured in depth individual meetings. Findings: Female entrepreneurs build, balance, and manage a wide range of entrepreneurial ventures of varying sizes across sectors while maintain both role and social identities. Female entrepreneurs also express strong views on earning returns and income to not only grow their business but support their employees, communities, themselves, and their families. Implications & Recommendations: This study generated five themes that should be researched quantitatively to determine further understanding of entrepreneurship and developing other entrepreneurs in developing countries. Contribution & Value Added: The study contributes to the existing body of knowledge on entrepreneurship in entrepreneurial identity, by exploring the female entrepreneur as both a role and identity. It examines this through the perspective of role identity and learn how female entrepreneurs consider their role as an entrepreneur.

Findings: The results of this study indicate the technology-based sustainable business strategy must be the primary role model to increasing the MSMEs competitiveness. A successful sustainable business strategy has four core dimensions: innovation, collaboration, communication, and commitment. Digital businesses can be used as a medium to achieve their vision of sustainable practices in competitive advantage, brand loyalty, risk mitigation, and cost reduction. Researchers prove that the sustainability can lead to an increase in the market value of MSMEs. Implications & Recommendations: MSMEs who proactively make the core of business strategy sustainability will encourage innovation and generate enthusiasm and loyalty from employees, customers, suppliers, communities, and investors. Implementation of integrated digital business strategy should include guidelines for understanding consumer behavior, accessing market data more easily, and using social media as a form of continuous communication that shows the proximity of MSMEs to customers. Contribution & Value Added: Empirical research to measure the relationship between proposed sustainable business practices and consumer expectations holds excellent opportunities for future research.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to identify the dynamic capabilities (DC) that have been owned by the company and find new measurements of DC instruments for financing companies. Dynamic capability is needed to react quickly to the dynamics of the industrial environment, survive in competition and be sustainable. Research Design & Methods: This study utilized a quantitative approach. The search for factor values of each DC was conducted through 32 questionnaire questions given to 55 branch business managers. KMO and Bartlett's test and rotated component matrix test were conducted to prove that the factors are interrelated, with the limitation of average value as the main factor determinant. Findings: Sustainability, innovation, and dynamic factors are important capabilities for multi-finance companies that need to be strengthened and developed. Implications & Recommendations: The concept of DC sensing, seizing, and reconfiguring is closely related to the capabilities of strategic human resource development (SHRD) which is the most important asset. In the future, research can be conducted again on how strong the relationship between SHRD dynamic capabilities and existing DC factors is in achieving company sustainability. Contribution & Value Added: Organizations can survive in fierce competition if they know their DC as their competitive advantage. However, not many companies know how to measure their DC against their dynamic industry, this study will provide examples of the instruments needed.
