Purpose: This study aims at describing the principals’ efforts to make changes, the factors supporting the changes, and inhibiting factors. Research methodology: This research uses a literature review method to describe the principals’ efforts to make changes, the factors supporting the changes, and inhibiting factors. Results: The results show that (1) the principals’ efforts to make changes include catalysts, creators, facilitators, and stabilizers, (2) the supporting factors are the principals’ efforts to make changes and support from teachers and parents to make these changes, and (3) there are several factors, including inhibiting factors. These factors are unfolding needs which include economy, social needs, self-esteem, and individuals that requirefinding new work methods, new work groups that cause inconvenience and obscurity to achieve, limiting the individuals’ share of information and school organizational resources, and orthodox thinking leading to underdevelopment of knowledge and skills as well as limiting authority, increasing workload, increasing number of rules, and intimidating individual career development. Limitations: This study only focuses on the principle of making changes, the factors supporting the changes, and inhibiting factors. Contribution: This research contributes to the principals’ efforts to make changes, the factors supporting the changes, and inhibiting factors to achieve school goals and a good leader to manage the school.

“…It would, therefore, be valuable from an industry point of view to impart the most desired skills during the study. The top outcome of Management Education is the quality-driven employability developed during the program (Kooli C, 2019;Wille, De Fruyt, & Feys, 2013). Consequently, employability has emerged as a topic of interest and research in professional programs (Akkermans & Kubasch, 2017).…”

“…Consequently, employability has emerged as a topic of interest and research in professional programs (Akkermans & Kubasch, 2017). According to Kooli C (2019), quality is the biggest constraint and many higher education institutions operate major academic activities without a clear strategic direction. This has resulted in increased attention and expectation from the industry towards employability competencies developed during the course.…”

Purpose: The study’s primary purpose is to identify the critical sustainable competencies and their importance in Indian management education perceived by the stakeholders. Research Methodology: The study adopted an explanatory research design and a standardised questionnaire to gather data from stakeholder groups. Results: The results suggest that the competency clusters considered necessary by the main stakeholder groups are behavioural, functional and strategic. Limitations: Broader perspective with more samples at various locations will add more value to the idea. Contribution: This paper aims to support both business and academia by recommending a positive collaborative process and building a workforce ready for work.

“…These differences, according to literature, are accounted for by different educational systems; culture; the standard of living; models and analysis method employed; period of study; population from which data was collected; and the area of study (Perrewé (2006) and Kabito et al (2020). According to researchers (Blaug et al, 2007;Muchinsky, 2007;Owusu-Ansah, 2008;Gachter et al, 2009;Griffin & Clarke, 2011;Akinyele et al, 2014;Mensah et al, 2017;Kooli, 2019), response to a stimulus in a work that results in a negative outcome for the worker exposed to the stimuli is what causes job stress.…”

Purpose: The current research aimed to investigate demographic differences in job stress prevalence and job stress causes among the staff of universities. Research methodology: The study is based on a descriptive, quantitative, and cross-sectional research design. A sample of 100 respondents, from Sunyani Technical University, were sampled using the convenience sample method. Data were collected in a survey using a questionnaire which was designed by the researchers and administered to the respondents at their workplaces. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, regression analysis, and One-Way Analysis of Variance. Results were presented in Tables. Results: The findings indicate that significant demographic differences exist in job stress prevalence and job stress causes. The management of universities should take into account the current findings of the research in dealing with job stress. Appropriate policies are recommended to be put in place to deal with stress related to the job to improve staff output, so as not to have a deleterious effect on staff professional work and personal welfare. Limitations: Some respondents felt reluctant to take part in the survey. The causal conclusions cannot be made based on the current findings since a causal investigation was not the focus of the study, and hence was not done. Some respondents also did not answer all the questions asked. Contributions: The paper contributes to the literature in the area of job stress sources and the role demographic factors in job stress causes in higher institutions. The work is the first of its kinds in the study institution on the role of culture and belief on job stress.
