“…Several studies have examined this relationship, providing evidence of the important role that self-organizational capabilities play in promoting resilience in microfinance institutions. For example, in a study by Ngwenya and Khumalo (2018), they found that self-organizational capabilities, such as the ability to adapt to changing circumstances and innovate, were important factors in promoting resilience in microfinance institutions in Zimbabwe. The authors argue that self-organization enables institutions to respond to challenges such as economic downturns and changes in regulations, leading to greater resilience.…”

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to explore the interplay among self-organization, networks and sustainable innovations within microfinance institutions (MFIs) and to examine the extent to which organizational resilience plays a significant role in shaping these dynamics as a mediator.Design/methodology/approachThis paper adopted a cross-sectional research design combined with analytical and descriptive approach to collect the data. Smart partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was used to construct the measurement model and structural equation model to test the mediating effect under this study.FindingsThe results revealed that organizational resilience is a significant mediator in the relationship between self-organization, networks and sustainable innovations among microfinance institutions in Uganda.Research limitations/implicationsThe data for this study were collected only from microfinance institutions in Uganda. Future studies may collect data from other formal financial institutions like commercial banks and credit institutions to test the mediating effect of organizational resilience. More still, the study adopted only a single approach of using a questionnaire. However, future research through interviews may be desirable. Likewise this study was cross-sectional in nature. Therefore, a longitudinal study may be useful in future while investigating the mediating role of organizational resilience traversing over a long time frame.Practical implicationsA possible implication is that microfinance institutions which desire to have sustainable innovative solutions for their business operations in disruptive circumstances may need to scrutinize their capacity to be resilient and self-organize.Social implicationsMicrofinance institutions play a great role to the underserved clients. Thus, for each to re-organize to be able to provide services that meet users’ needs, without physical products so as to ensure long-term financial and social welfare combined with the ability to bounce back and adapt in times of economic downturn to avoid mission adrift.Originality/valueWhile most studies have been carried out on organizational resilience, this paper takes center stage and is the first to test the mediating role of organizational resilience in the relationship between self-organization, networks and sustainable innovations, especially in microfinance institutions in Uganda. This paper generates strong evidence and contributes to the powerful influence of organizational resilience in enhancing the level of sustainable innovations based on self-organization and networks.

This study sought to evaluate the link between public value creation and e-HRM. The study draws upon public value theory to explore the role of e-HRM in value creation of public organizations. The study was conducted in Kenya in the County Government of Nyeri. A mixed methods approach was adopted, which combines quantitative surveys with qualitative interviews. The quantitative research approach involved a cross-sectional survey design. The survey respondents were 209 employees of Nyeri County Government. Data was analyzed by means of structural equation modelling (SEM). Qualitative approach involved conducting interviews. Thematization was used to analyze qualitative data. The study results show a significant relationship between quality public services, achievable desirable outcomes and development of trust and public value creation. In line with study findings, the study recommends that public sector organizations should optimize the use of e-HRM in their operations to create public value. This study is noteworthy for being one of the pioneering works to explore public value creation through e-HRM using a mixed-methodology approach.

“…The E-HRM system was evaluated by a 6-item scale adapted from Nyathi and Kekwaletswe [63]. For instance, we incorporated statements such as "I have the necessary knowledge to use the e-HRM system" and "The e-HRM system helps me improve my job performance".…”

This study attempts to examine the impact of electronic human resource management (E-HRM) systems on achieving a sustainable competitive advantage (SCA) in the tourism and hospitality industry by incorporating sustainable innovation (SI) and organizational agility (OA) as mediators. To survive, tourist and hospitality organizations must embrace digital transformation by using E-HRM practices such as digital recruiting, online training, and performance management tools. Organizations may improve their HR departments’ efficiency, effectiveness, and decision making, enhancing the overall organizational performance and preserving a sustainable competitive edge. Middle and first-line management of the five-star hotels and travel agencies in category A operating in Egypt were investigated. A PLS-SEM analysis was performed on 313 valid responses, gathered using WarpPLS 7.0. The findings revealed that E-HRM is positively associated with SCA, SI, and OA. Furthermore, there were positive associations between SI and OA and SCA. SI and OA were also shown to be mediators in the relationship between E-HRM and SCA. The study adds to the existing literature on how E-HRM impacts SI, OA, and SCA. The relationship between these components in hotels and travel agencies has not been the subject of any empirical research. The current study has addressed gaps by empirically analyzing these relationships in the context of Egyptian hotels and travel agencies. It integrates E-HRM, innovation, organizational agility, and competitive advantage within the context of sustainability in tourism and hospitality.
