“…In this regard, our study is similar to Fernando et al (2020), who posit and find empirical evidence, that the impact of gender diversity on firm performance is mediated by managerial ability. In addition, Ting et al (2021), Mithas et al (2011) and Tanriverdi (2005) use mediation analyses to evaluate how certain variables mediate the relationship between other variables and firm performance.…”

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of the age diversity of the top management team (TMT) on firm performance and on the managerial ability of the TMT. Furthermore, this study investigates how the relationship between age diversity and firm performance is mediated by managerial ability and the contextual nature of the relationship. Design/methodology/approach This is an empirical study which uses regression analyses and mediation analyses to evaluate the hypotheses. Findings The authors observe a negative relationship between age diversity and firm performance and also between age diversity and managerial ability of the TMT. Further, the authors find that that the negative relationship between age diversity and firm performance is mediated by managerial ability. The authors also find that the relation between performance and age diversity is context specific – the negative relationship between age diversity and firm performance is ameliorated during times of financial crisis. Social implications In an environment where diversity is beginning to be valued, insights into the impact of different types of diversity on performance become important. Age diversity is a critical component of diversity. Therefore, insights into the impact of age diversity on performance will be of interest to managers, academics and even regulators. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is the first to evaluate the impact of age diversity on the market perception of firm performance of US firms using a large, comprehensive, multi-year data set. Furthermore, this is the only study to evaluate the impact of age diversity on managerial ability and show the mediating effect of managerial ability on the relationship between age diversity and firm performance.

This paper addresses the evaluation of nursing quality and safety beyond nursing tasks in specific healthcare settings and sets it in a context that conveys the sense of complexity and multifaceted nature of the contribution that nursing makes to the whole system. The paper describes research conducted in Tuscany during 2019 involving regional managers and heads of nursing departments. This research has led to the development of an integrated evaluation framework through focus groups and consensus process with the latter, which includes Performance Organizational climate data, Patient-Reported Experience Measures (PREMs), and Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs). This integrated framework aims at both making sense of extant measures as key performance indicators shared among different professionals while recognizing the important role of nursing care by adding specific measures and can be seen as a tool that boosts the sense of “teamness” in healthcare.

“…At the first stage of analytical work to study the optimality of the portfolio of attracted resources of a banking organization, it is advisable to draw up a visualization model of the properties of the funds raised (Ting et al, 2021;Hafezalkotob et al, 2019). For this purpose, the entire volume of attracted resources should be grouped into: • PS1 -deposits of individuals; • PS2 -deposits of legal entities; • PS3 -other attracted resources.…”

Optimal allocation of deposits (resources) and facilities (expenditures) are among the most important strategies of banks. Optimal allocation of resources in various economic sectors leads to targeting of funds collected by banks. Optimal allocation of expenses, in addition to obtaining returns in excess of the cost of attracting resources, leads to rapid and timely response to bank customers. The purpose of this study is to provide linear programming models to determine the optimal combination of resources and expenditures of banks with the approach of reducing the cost of money. The tools used in this research are linear programming models and the data used is quantitative. The results of this study showed that all five factors (electronic banking, physical factors and conditions, service factors, communication and human factors and financial factors, respectively) were effective factors in attracting resources. They are influential in the bank, respectively.
