“…The rapid changes in the business environment along with the pressures associated with the global competition make many companies heading toward having interest in the modern management concepts in order to achieve the sustainable competitive advantage, which had a positive repercussions on human resources management, where the human element is considered the basis of the companies in achieving its strategic success and implementing its various goals; from here, many calls emerged for the need for the adoption of the open management, the delegation of authority to the employees, and a sense of responsibility reaching to what is known as an administrative trust, which gives the employees greater power in supervising, decision-making and what tasks can be reached freely without the direct intervention of managers, which is the new approach that is called the administrative empowerment (Aljawarneh & Atan, 2018;Alshare et al, 2020;Bousalem, 2013).…”

This study aimed to examine the impact of the administrative empowerment on the employees' performance management process at Jadara University. To achieve the objectives of the study, the researcher developed a questionnaire that was distributed to all employees in three managerial levels (high, middle, and low) totaling (56) male and female employees; there were (53) recovered questionnaires which were valid for statistical analysis, a descriptive statistical methods, correlation coefficient, and simple regression were used to answer the questions of the study, and test its hypotheses. The study concluded that the level of practicing the administrative empowerment, and the process of performance management of employees at Jadara University was moderate and it also found that there were a significant impact for the administrative empowerment on the employees' performance management process in its dimensions represented in: (setting expectations of the employees' performance, supervising progress in the employees' performance, assessing of employees' performance, providing of feedback for employees, and setting of plans to develop the performance of the employees); the study set a number of recommendations, most notably are: increasing care in the level of empowerment granted to the employees by managers at Jadara University and pay more attention to the process of performance management of employees. Contribution/ Originality: This study contributes to existing literature by examining the impact of the administrative empowerment on the employees' performance management process at Jadara University.

“…Customer's retention is important as well. It measures the detainment of customers through controlling the number of times the customers repeat buying a certain company product or service (Alshare et al, 2020). Executive managers seek to perform processes in the market to give their organizations a competitive advantage.…”

This research study aims at developing a knowledge management system to enhance Jordanian Banks Performance. The authors developed the system by examining three variables: knowledge processes, knowledge perspectives, and a balanced scorecard. The research sample included all 327 bank employees (directors, general directors, deputies, assistant managers & chairpersons) working in six commercial and Islamic-commercial Jordanian banks, from which 193 completed the study questionnaire. AMOS software was used to treat and organize the collected data. Path analysis proved that the optimal study model excludes the process of knowledge diagnose from knowledge processes, and considers organizational culture perspective as the best moderating variable through which the system can be applied in Jordanian banks. There is a difference in the effect level of the knowledge management system to enhance performance in the Jordanian commercial and Islamic banks. The obtained results indicate that there is a strong relationship between information technology, knowledge management, and high business values. Banks managements were not keen to share knowledge with universities and research centers. They depended on existing knowledge, developed knowledge by experiments, or borrowed it from other financial institutions. This study confirmed that knowledge management practice contributes to increasing efficacy and experience, contributing in turn to enhancing human capital in knowledge-intensive business services in Spain. Knowledge management use in Jordan banks increased employee’s satisfaction toward using operating business and the quality of knowledge obtained. As a result, banking services and trust in banks increased. Based on the research results, it is recommended that banks managements develop, equip, and update bank systems, recruit professional employees, and seek experts and researcher’s assistance in this regard. Banks managements should adopt models that replace a diagnosis from the knowledge processes with organizational culture. Besides, management should develop banking knowledge and pay attention to other knowledge management processes. Keywords: knowledge processes, knowledge perspectives, balanced scorecard.

“…This results in a quality that is not in accordance with the standard, in this case the level of strength of the perforated concrete roster product produced still does not meet the standard (SNI) [11]. According to SNI, the roster requirements (perforated concrete brick) must have a compressive strength of around 30 MPa or the equivalent of 350 kg/cm2 [12]. The unequal hardness of these products causes some products to crack easily.…”

The compressive strength of lightweight bricks produced by CV. Sinar Jaya Maros has a very high variation because there is no standard raw material composition that meets SNI standards, according to SNI 03-0349-1989 that the requirements for hollow concrete bricks for K-350 concrete quality must have a compressive strength of 350 kg/cm2. This research was conducted to design an improvement or quality improvement of hollow concrete brick products in CV. Sinar Jaya Maros. The quality improvement is in increasing the compressive strength of the concrete brick with an optimal composition. Quality improvement was carried out by using the Taguchi method experimental design to obtain the optimal combination of compositions. The orthogonal array notation used is L9(34) with material control factors in the form of cement (A), water (B), and (C), and Casting plaster (D). Data processing is carried out by calculating ANOVA on the average value and S/N Ratio with the best nominal classification. The classification was chosen because the closer to the compressive strength based on the SNI of hollow concrete bricks, the higher the quality of the concrete bricks. This ANOVA calculation is carried out to know which factors have a significant effect on the compressive strength of concrete bricks. The test conducted to determine the quality of lightweight bricks is the compressive strength test of concrete which is carried out using a compression machine. Based on the results of data processing, the ratio of the optimal composition of cement:water: sand was obtained by 2:1:3,5. Confirmation experiments prove that the compressive strength of the composition is robust.
