The Roles of Service Leadership in South Sudan transitional Governance and Institutional Performances

“…Forming a transitional government is a substitute for a social contract to leverage governance and servant leadership to perform and deliver the service outlined in the peace agreement (Linner & Wibek, 2019). The social contract is an ideal concept of isomorphism, which is a concept where a transitional government is formed to adjust its political organization or fragility into a peacefully political settlement by having social fabrics such as: the capacity to establish laws & orders, and policies; normative fabric to introduce social life values and norms; cognitive fabric to provide an interactive environment for legislative actors (Yuga & Anas, 2020). Therefore, South Sudan's transitional governance and institutional performance have been characterized by weak institutions and governance due to the polarization of political elites determining the service leadership capacity, legitimacy and autonomy to provide service (Atiku et al, 2023).…”

Influence of social innovation on organizational effectiveness of non-profit organizations: A case of gotabgaa international in the United States of America

“…Institutional theory is widely recognized as one of the most important approaches to organizational research today and it focuses on the roles of social, political and economic systems in which organizations operate and gain their legitimacy. It further argues that there are forces outside of non-rational organizations, such as the state, social norms, traditions and conventions that make up the organization (Yuga & Anas, 2020). Studies on institutional theory have established that organizations can create an ecosystem that supports organizational legitimacy with norms, rules and beliefs in the organization in order to mobilize social, economic and political resources to adapt to an environment in improving organizational effectiveness (Yuga & Anas, 2020;Stephan et al, 2016).…”

Other studies (Alvesson & Spicer, 2018;Hallett, 2019) recognized this theory to be among the top approaches to organizational study and that considerate disparities exist among intellectuals on what both the key concepts stand for and the principal assumptions concerning how social norms and prospects influence organizations.…”

“…Organizational Theory Jones and Jones (2013) define organizational theory as the study of how organizations function and how they affect and are affected by the environment in which they operate. Scholars in organizational sciences have acknowledged that the pivotal theme of organizational theory is related to organizational effectiveness (Cameron & Whetten, 2013) and that the fundamental goal of most research undertaken on organizations is that of enhancing their effectiveness (Yuga & Anas, 2020). Further studies on various models of organizational effectiveness under this theory (Cameron, 2015;Mitchel, 2013;Rainey Chung, 2015) denote that it is profound to envisage organizations as encompassing goals, or multiple goals and that measurement of goal achievement is viable, although conceivably challenging.…”
