01 Jan 2016TL;DR: In this article, the authors pointed out that an economic shift from the West to the East is underway, having both major economic and socio-political implications China and India are often featured as drivers of this Asian economic renaissance.
Abstract: Many scholars and practitioners have anointed the 21st century as the “Asian Century”. It is now obvious that an economic shift from the West to the East is underway, having both major economic and socio-political implications China and India are often featured as drivers of this Asian economic renaissance. China and India are the two remaining BRIC countries that still grow at a considerable speed. China is projected to have a growth rate of about 6.5 % over the next several years (lower than the double digit growth it experienced at the turn of the century) and India may pick up some steam and hit 7 % for the next years. However, less well-known and less analyzed is the equally remarkable story of the rise of the ASEAN market, which may generate interesting prospects for many multinational companies (MNC) and global investors in the coming years.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the adoption of HCWP in large Australian organizations from the perspective of Human Resource Management (HRM) practitioners and found a significant relationship between adoption of most HCWP and positive outcomes.
Abstract: Purpose – This study examines the adoption of HCWP in large Australian organizations from the perspective of Human Resource Management (HRM) practitioners. In doing so it considers the factors that may influence adoption and the relationship between HCWP and employer and employee outcomes. Design/methodology/approach – This study uses survey data collected from the senior members of the HRM function in 189 large Australian organizations. Findings – The research found a significant relationship between the adoption of most HCWP and positive outcomes. HCWP were universally applicable in all organizations regardless of their type or context. Theory Y management attitude, organizational policy, the quality of HRM and good employee relations facilitate the adoption of HCWP. Research limitations/implications – This study used cross sectional survey data from the single source of the HRM practitioner in large organizations which places limits on its ability to determine causation between variables and generalize to all Australian organizations. Further research could use multiple respondents and time series data and investigate HPWP in small and medium sized Australian organizations. Practical implications – Large Australian organizations, regardless of industry, workforce composition and strategy focus could benefit from the adoption of HCWP. To facilitate adoption organizations should ensure that their management has the right attitude; their HRM function is strategic and effectively resourced; and develop an effective relationship between management and employees. Originality/value – This research has investigated whether extant theory and research on HCWP is applicable to large Australian organizations and extends research on the factors that impact on HCWP adoption.

01 Jan 2008TL;DR: In this article, the relevance of queuing theory principles to the healthcare sector is illustrated through a case study of a day surgery unit in a hospital in Melbourne, Australia.
Abstract: In this article, we illustrate the relevance of queuing theory principles to the healthcare sector through a case study of a day surgery unit in a hospital in Melbourne, Australia. The hospital has an acknowledged problem: patients are spending longer-than-anticipated periods of time in the day surgery unit, and they are facing excessive waiting times at all stages of their healthcare delivery process. The hospital is operated on a not-forprofit basis, and the executive board members are keen to understand the root causes of the problem, so they can direct their investment in the system to improve its responsiveness.
