    The profession of 'personal selling' is replete with problems of high turnover due to lack of 'job satisfaction'. The lack of job satisfaction leads to build up of 'turnover intention' among employees and translates in to 'turnover' at an opportune and suitable moment. The relation between job satisfaction and turnover intention has been proven to be conclusively negative. This study aims to explore the existence of a contradictory 'positive' relationship between job satisfaction and turnover intention, which can be categorised as 'dysfunctional turnover intention'. The study also explores whether practising managers are able to identify this dysfunctional turnover intention and if so what strategies are used to manage the dysfunctional turnover. Findings confirm the existence of 'dysfunctional turnover intention' among the research subjects; where there is uncommon positive relation between 'job satisfaction' and 'turnover intention'. It also appears that the line managers have developed their own strategies to manage such dysfunctional cases.

These organisations are now facing challenges not only from other organisations in the host countries but also from those located anywhere in the world. Dynamic economic environment, changing customer needs, technological advancements and highly informed customers have aided in compounding their woes. Now `Survival of the fittest' is being understood in its true sense. For survival and growth organisations must utilise their full potential at all times in all the spheres of their activities. This is only possible by paying greater attention to managing productivity. But management of productivity can only be discussed if it is measured in right time, on right scale and in right perspective. This paper is an attempt to analyse the available models of productivity measurement for their perspective and application to arrive ...

    Globalization has redefined the constituents and drivers of economic progress over last two decades. The traditional contributors of economic development and economic power such as material resources and production capabilities have been replaced by knowledge and information. Globalization has resulted in significant changes in the knowledge economy and ushered new conditions for the provision of higher education to cater the skill requirement all across the globe. Higher educational services have emerged over the last few years as a major economic sector for trade worth several billion dollars. The key elements of globalization include the knowledge society, information and communication technologies, the market economy, trade liberalization and changes in governance structures. These elements of globalization have impacted significantly the education sector in general and higher education in particular. The present study critically analyzes the growth of higher education sector in...
