Today, knowledge gradually becomes an important resource for the competitiveness of enterprises (business-es). For small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Vietnam, knowledge sharing (KS) is a necessary condition to increase labor productivity and ensure the sustainable development of businesses. However, encouraging KS among employees requires management to understand the motivational factors of KS and set out appropriate policies. This study is based on the research model of Burgess (2005) [Burgess, D. (2005). What motivates employees to transfer knowledge outside their work unit?. The Journal of Business Communication (1973), 42(4), 324-348.] and related theories to identify psychological motivational factors that affect KS. The study conduct surveys in 400 SMEs to assess the impact of the factors on KS in Vietnamese SMEs. The results show that the factors like rewarding; Fear of losing power, Concepts for self-interest, promoting the role of the group, the concept for social benefits affect KS, significantly. From this re-sult, the study also proposes a number of recommendations to improve KS motivation of Vietnamese SMEs' employees. At the same time, through quantitative research, the author identifies the factors affecting the knowledge sharing behavior of SMEs in Vietnam. Research results indicate different factors; including team-work, cohesion, trusts, reward system, information technology system, communication with peers, the concern of senior management are correlated positively with employees' knowledge sharing behavior.

This research was conducted on SMEs in Indonesia, by prioritizing the local wisdom of the Indonesian nation as a tropical, agrarian country, with SMEs owners who process fruits and vegetables into snacks as respondents. The study involved 243 respondents, to determine the partial and simultaneous influence of human resource competences and supply chain management on financial performance. The reason for doing this research is because some of the research that has been done by previous researchers still discusses this on corporate and not on SMEs. However, market conditions have changed. SMEs need to be managed professionally, by minimizing expenses to maximize revenue, taking into account risk, resource capabilities, in flexible ways as well as low-cost. The results showed that there was a significant influence on the financial performance of SMEs with the presence of human resource competences and supply chain management either partially or simultaneously.

Recently, environmental protection is emerging as global warming is becoming an increasing issue of concern worldwide. In addition, the world society has shifted its preference from the conventional product to the environmental-friendly product. But, on the contrary, the manufacturing industry management is still in doubt whether the green practices benefit the company, given that it requires a lot of capital investment and culture change. This study examines the impact of top management commitment on competitive advantage with the mediating role of supplier integration, customer integration, and green innovation. The data collection used a questionnaire designed with a five-point Likert scale to measure the objective opinion of the respondents against the item statement by choosing the predetermined measurement scale starting with 1: strongly disagree up to 5: strongly agree. Questionnaires were created in Google Form link and distributed to 600 respondents via email, WhatsApp groups, and Facebook. This survey received 285 responses (response rate 47.50%) considered valid for further analysis. Furthermore, the data were analyzed using the partial least square (PLS) technique using SmartPLS software version 3.0. The result revealed that top management commitment directly influences supplier integration, green innovation, customer integration. Top management commitment did not directly affect competitive advantage. Instead, competitive advantages were affected by supplier integration, green innovation, and customer integration. Similarly, green innovation was supported by supplier integration and customer integration. In addition, top management commitment indirectly affects competitive advantage through supplier integration, green innovation, and customer integration. This result implies that top management commitment plays a vital role and has multiple effects in enhancing competitive advantage through establishing strategy and policies. This result provides a practical contribution on how the manufacturing companies could improve competitive advantage and at the same time concerns the environmental protection through green innovation. This study could also enrich and extend the acceptance of the recent research in the context of the manufacturing industry. Finally, this work has some limitations, particularly regarding the population and the variables involved. Further studies on the current topic are suggested to apply the variables such as digital and technology capability as these issues are currently in the growing stage. Future research is also suggested to cover a broader population such as the service and health industry.

Despite the importance of risk management in the banking sector, little research has been devoted to the Ara-bian settings. This paper investigates the effect of risk management practices (i.e., understanding risk and risk management, risk analysis and assessment, risk identification, risk monitoring, and credit risk analysis) on Jordanian commercial banks’ performance. The study utilizes a quantitative approach by obtaining survey data from risk managers and employees in risk management departments (n=23) of commercial banks. A partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was applied on the data and the results showed that the components of risk management practices had positive and significant impacts on the performance of banks. In sum, the findings corroborate existing work in the Western settings and underscore the importance of risk management in the Arabian banking context.
