TRUST AND COMPETENCY: AN ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE PERSPECTIVE

Author(s): Andrei-Robert Nica / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2022

An organization can increase its performance by the optimal use of its resources (human, capital, material, technological) in relation to organizational goals. Even if the goals are set for the organization itself, ultimately these are achieved through the human resources available, in other words the organization depends on the knowledge, skills, abilities and other characteristics of its human resources for achieving its goals. Properly motivated human resources equipped with the right competencies, which are aligned with organizational goals have a decisive effect on the organization’s performance. Furthermore, one of the main factors that lead to the achievement of an organizational goal is social cooperation, a characteristic that attests to the capacity to work together. The main driver for this ability is trust, an essential element of social cohesion. Studies (Zand, 1972; Salamon & Robinson, 2008; Searle et al., 2011; Whitney, 1994; Kramer & Tyler, 1996, Davis & Landa, 1999) show trust has both direct and indirect relationship on organizational performance. From this premise, this paper is providing a bird’s eye view on the concepts of trust and competency and their impact on organizational performance as the central theme.

Author(s): Marian Cadar / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2022

This paper focuses on the importance of the human resources management in the organization, and certain ways that can improve the access to people as a resource. The premise is that there are certain fields and approaches in the human resource management that are constantly changing and, provided that they adequately adapt, can also improve the management of human resources in the military organization. Nowadays, for this particularly complex resource of any organization, there is a constant competition to have, to attract, to train and retain the most valuable personnel, meaning that even the military organization must find ways to compete with the civilian organizations to have the best people. Adequate human resources management in the military organization should provide well-trained personnel, with high core values and a well-established path in career in order to have balanced attrition rates, leading to mutual benefits.

Author(s): Ana Maria Chisega Negrila / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2022

Undoubtedly, teaching and learning have taken different forms throughout history. First, they were limited to the hand-in of information from one generation to the next, but in time, schools began to develop and thrive. Nowadays, due to the inordinate number of information that people need at their working place, both teaching and learning are on the verge of a revolution which will probably change education as we know it. However, as this process in underway, it is difficult to predict whether the steps taken now to modernize the educational system are all made in the right direction. Will microcontent and microlearning be the answer to some of the problem in education? If people learn only what is needed and necessary, will this solve the information overload? The aim of this paper is to answer some of these questions by providing a balanced approach regarding the scope, uses and design of microlearning for professional development.

Author(s): Ivan Okromtchedlishvili / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2022

Defense organizations absorb large amounts of public resources. The way to improve the effectiveness of the management of defense funds implies the introduction of a performance-based budgeting approach, which links the funding of public sector organizations to the results they deliver. One of the more advanced government-wide performance budgeting systems that uses performance information systematically in the preparation of the government budget is program budgeting, in which expenditures are classified into groups of similar activities or projects (i.e., programs) with common outputs and outcomes. A central issue in good program budgeting is the appropriate definition of programs and other elements of the so-called program hierarchy. This paper overviews the principles and approaches for formulating an effective defense program structure, analyzes the existing program structure of the Ministry of Defense of Georgia, identifies its shortcomings, and suggests ways to improve it.
