The effect of entrepreneurial leadership traits on corporate sustainable development and firm performance: a resource-based view Anjum Razzaque, In Lee, George Mangalaraj European Business Review, 2024 Purpose This study aims to empirically assess entrepreneurial leadership skills’ role in Corporate Sustainable Development (CSD) and firm performance (FP). This study considers five specific entrepreneurial traits: innovativeness, creativity, analytical thinking, emotional intelligence and passion and motivation. The motivation for this investigation stems from concerns over micro-firms vulnerabilities and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) lacking proper leadership skills. This study is guided by the resource-based view theory and conducted during the pandemic, offering insights into firms operating under constrained conditions. Design/methodology/approach Confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling (SEM), were used on survey responses from 321 Bahraini firms. This study’s data collection occurred under environmental uncertainties due to the pandemic and provides a unique context for understanding CSD and entrepreneurial leadership skills under high business/environmental uncertainty. Findings The findings reveal that entrepreneurial leadership skills positively impact CSD and firm performance through creativity, passion and motivation. However, innovativeness negatively affects CSD and FP. Furthermore, CSD positively influences firm performance. Research limitations/implications Theoretical and practical implications, plus limitations, are also discussed in this study. Practical implications Understanding entrepreneurial leadership skills effect on CSD and firm performance in SMEs is important as SEMs are prone to fail in the early years. This study’s findings and its implications help guide SME leaders in furthering their entrepreneurial leadership skills to foster CSD and firm performance. Originality/value This study contributes to comprehending the crucial role of entrepreneurial skills, during uncertain times of the pandemic, for SMEs’ survival. It provides valuable insights for firms operating in competitive environments, offering a unique perspective on the required entrepreneurial skills and their effect on CSD and firm performance.
Preface Azra Razzack, M. Atyab Siddiqui Lecture Notes in Networks and Systems, 2023 Extract We were associated with the Anglo Arabic School, Ajmeri Gate, as members of both the Managing Committee of the school and of the Delhi Education Society under the aegis of which the school functions. As we worked on the campus in our respective capacities, there was a painful realization about a gap that existed. This historic educational institution, having its origins in late 17th century and located in the heart of Delhi at Ajmeri Gate, was almost nonexistent for many in the field of education. Many questions came to mind - Why was such a historic school not part of the narrative, much less the imagination of well-known educationists? Even its affiliation with CBSE had not given this school a worthy mention. Was its ghettoized existence responsible for its anonymity in the wider world outside? That was the moment we decided that documentation of the story of the school was imperative. In ‘othering’ the Muslim community somewhere the school seems to have been ‘othered’ as well. It was important that this book be written. Not doing so would be doing grave injustice to history and to the cause of education.
Understanding mobile learning, imagination capacity, and team creativity through people-learn-framework and creativity theory perspective Anjum Razzaque International Journal of Mobile Learning and Organisation, 2022 Though empirically unevidenced assertions posit that m-learning enhances online participation and achieves learning outcomes, instructors continue observing a low rate of students' virtual participation. Such an observation gets instructors sceptical if m-learning achieves learning outcomes. In parallel, employers complain of graduates lacking team creativity skills. This study investigated the m-learning and learning outcomes relationship through the How People Learn framework and comprehended how imagination capacity and team creativity allow digital learning to enhance online participation and facilitate m-learning for achieving learning outcomes, using the creativity theory. Hence, this study proposed a model bearing five hypotheses. This model was tested via an adopted questionnaire and received 307 higher-education students. Multiple regression analysis reveals a partial mediation of m-learning between imagination capacity and team creativity. Such mediation helps achieve the desired learning outcomes, improves online participation, and enhances team creativity. This study also proposes theoretical and practical implications.
The role of artificial intelligence in sustainable finance Abdalmuttaleb M. A. Musleh Al-Sartawi, Khaled Hussainey, Anjum Razzaque Journal of Sustainable Finance and Investment, 2022 This Special Issue includes several articles on a variety of issues related to sustainable development, ESG investing and the role of Artificial Intelligence in helping creditors, investors and business managers in making optimal decisions to ensure long-term financial sustainability. In this context, it can be argued that it is necessary to consider the challenges and opportunities presented by AI in providing solutions to sustainability issues. In addition to outlining the articles in this Issue, this Editorial provides new insights from the literature on the importance of AI applications and models, for sustainable investments and understanding the value of AI beyond a problem-solving tool.
Artificial intelligence based multinational corporate model for EHR interoperability on an e-health platform Anjum Razzaque, Allam Hamdan Studies in Computational Intelligence, 2021 This study explores the improvement of efficiency in e-Health by standardizing access to electronic health records (EHRs). Without overlaid organizations, EHR will remain an uneven and fragmented network of lagging systems unable to achieve accuracy and consistency, thus efficiencies. A multinational corporation (MNC) model is proposed to reduce healthcare costs, and implement a coherent system where data, technology and training are uniformly upgraded to alleviate interoperability issues. The conclusion revealed from our review of literature suggests that EHR interoperability issues may be mitigated by creating common architectures that enable fragmented systems to interoperate under supra organizations. As a result, an Artificial Intelligence based model is proposed to facilitate the improvement of the efficacy of e-Health to standardize HER.
