“…Nevertheless, this conclusion also has an important implication for further research on the role of leadership and management practices in organisations of various sizes regarding the development of employees' commitment towards the organisations' mission. Besides, since the study was conducted on a sample of Slovenian organisations the results can therefore reflect also national level cultural characteristics, strongly determined by the history of national economy (Trunk and Stubelj, 2013).…”

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of mission statement contents and its function in guiding employee's behaviour from the organisational culture (OC) perspective. Design/methodology/approach – The research is based on a mixed method approach. The quantitative content analysis of mission statements was performed on a sample of 222 Slovenian companies. Mission statement's keywords were analysed with exploratory factor analysis. Advanced network analytic approaches such as PathFinder algorithm were utilised to obtain better understanding of interrelatedness of underlying mission components. Three interviews with the top managers were performed as well. Findings – The mission statement content analysis identified five associated organisations’ orientations: concern for stakeholders, orientation towards stability, orientation towards cooperation and innovation, and development and growth. The interviews confirm missions’ role in communicating the espoused or declared OC, although different approaches to achieve employees’ commitment to the organisation's mission can be identified in regard to the size of the organisation. Originality/value – The cultural approach to the analysis of mission statements confirms that the mission statements incorporate basic contents of OC. The methodology applied gives new possibilities in the research of OC perspective of strategic statements.

“…Besides, the growth of life expectancy at birth is higher in countries with higher GDP per capita than in countries with lower GDP per capita. Moreover, economic globalisation increases life expectancy at birth more than political and social globalisation (Bergh and Nilsson, 2010; see also Trunk and Stubelj, 2013). However, Kabir (2008) believes that economic determinants are not really significant for life expectancy at birth.…”

Increasing life expectancy at birth is a huge achievement for a society; however it also brings many challenges and requires a society to constantly adapt to demographic consequences. In our research, we investigate life expectancy determinants and the role of a country's education level among them. Using multiple regression analysis on cross-section data of 187 countries around the world we confirm our main research thesis that a country's education level is an important determinant of life expectancy at birth and three separate hypotheses regarding life expectancy determinants. The main contribution of this research is the empirically tested regression model of life expectancy determinants. The results of the research confirm a strong importance of a country's education level and imply that societies should encourage education among young people as well as education of adults through lifelong learning programmes.
