“…Suliman and Al Harethi (2013) stated that strong ties could be established between employers and employees by providing a productive and favourable work environment. In addition, organisational success and failure depend on the internal environment of an organisation (Goldman and Casey, 2010; Kazmi and Naaranoja, 2015).

Purpose This study aims to examine the relationships for the following: supportive work environment, person–organisation fit and employee retention among academic staff in one of the Malaysian public universities. Design/methodology/approach This study used a conceptual framework to assess the direct impacts of supportive work environment (i.e. perceived climate, supervisory relationship, peer group interaction, perceived organisational support), person–organisation fit and employee retention. A self-administered questionnaire was distributed to 225 respondents. Findings The findings present the mediating influence of person–organisation fit on the relationships between supportive work environment and employee retention. The results reveal a direct and positive relationship between supportive work environment and academic staff retention. These results imply that individuals’ perceived towards an organisation can influence their decision to stay at the university. Research limitations/implications This study had filled in the knowledge gap about the role of supportive work environment with person–organisation fit and the relationship for employee retention in Malaysia. Previous research emphasised on organisations’ role in employee retention and engagement in the manufacturing and service industry. Originality/value The findings of this study reveal how a supportive work environment can impact employee retention among academic staff. Specifically, the person–organisation fit describes the relationship between supportive work environment and employee retention.

“…Clear vision serves as a focal point to all employees that include the activities to be pursued and the capabilities to be developed. Sharing clear vision throughout all units of the organization would create enthusiasm, emotions and excitement among employees and inspire them to be engaged effectively in the strategic planning process (Kazmi 2015;Kerlinová 2014;Janaki 2012).…”

Several authors argued that strategic planning is limited and not producing the needed outcomes. In todayâ€™s increasingly challenging environment, it is argued that public sector organizations are expected to shift from traditional strategic planning to the strategic management approach in order to achieve their desired outcomes. Previous research has focused almost upon developed, and not on developing countries, for instance, the Kingdom of Bahrain. This study will be the first of its kind to focus on strategic management practices based on the new strategy of Bahrain for 2030. Using quantitative survey method, this paper aims to explore the progress of the transition from strategic planning to the strategic management approach in the public sector of Bahrain, and then the paper explores the elements that are related to successful strategic management approach in these organizations. The findings reveal that the progress in the transition from strategic planning to a strategic management approach in most of the organizations surveyed was limited. However, some of the organizations were found to be at the start of such a transition and this may be a good sign. Additionally, the findings reported many leading edge elements that are closely related to this transition.
