“…The literature presents various aspects of pro-saving financial behaviour, and much of the literature considers that this financial knowledge is important not only for professional managers, but for all individuals, especially for the management of both corporate life and personal level, which raises the issue of skills that individuals should have to cope better in both personal and professional life (Humberto Ribeiro et al, 2018). We find opinions in the literature, which state that managerial skills allow both managers and individuals to adopt and acquire management positions, in order to perform better and to increase their ability to achieve the organizational goals (Katz, 1974;Whetten and Cameron, 2002;Bigelow, 1991;Analoui, 1998 andPeterson &Peterson, 2004).…”

Along the last years, it has been increasingly observed that a reduced understanding of a pro-saving financial behaviour, the lack of financial literacy, have led to bad decisions regarding the living of an individual, of a family and finally, by extension, the well-being of a nation. The lack of financial literacy is also confirmed by surveys of various organizations, measuring the awareness of the population about interest, inflation, loans, etc., knowledge that seems to be very poor. People's negative habits have consequences, such as: accumulating debts, ,many times not even realizing how quickly this happens. This article aims to present a theoretical approach and some tips & tricks for saving up and offers some practical solutions.

Training effectiveness depends on conducting a thorough needs assessment. Traditional needs assessment methods are insufficient for today's business environment characterized by rapid pace, risk, and uncertainty. To overcome the deficiencies of traditional needs assessment methods, a narrative‐based unstructured interview approach with subject matter experts (SMEs) is proposed for dynamic jobs in uncertain environments. First, the rationale for a narrative approach to training needs assessment is presented. Second, the utility of a narrative approach is examined using SME interviews from National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to identify crew training needs for a future long duration mission. Third, the value of a narrative approach and importance of training are discussed with respect to the NASA interview results along with managerial and theoretical implications.
