Purpose: This study focuses on the causal mechanisms by which a series of organizational factors like commitment, communication, experience, dependence and trust collectively affect on the success of science-industry R&D cooperation. The purpose of this paper is to identify multiple paths of complex causal recipes that can lead to success of science-industry R&D cooperation. Design/methodology/approach: The study uses fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA), a technique that provides a holistic view of the examined interrelationships, compared to traditional net effect approaches that assume symmetric and linear relationships among variables. Findings: Results indicate that different causal paths, exactly five configurations, explain success R&D contracts. Particularly, the findings reveal that the availability of commitment and communication are important, sufficient conditions because they appear in at least three of the five configurations that result from the analysis. In this way, a series of conclusions and implications have been obtained that can be very useful, both in the academic world and when trying to lead and manage cooperation agreements. Research implications: A comprehensive theoretical model was developed and tested that identifies the organizational factors of the success of science-industry R&D cooperation. The presented model and comprehensive research using fs/QCA allows to overcome the fragmentation of this specialized literature. Practical implications: The results contain a number of practical recommendations that can be useful in the conduct and management of cooperation agreements. During the establishing and developing contract stages, it is recommended to design managerial and organizational mechanisms that ensure a high degree of commitment and communication in combination with experience (configuration number 1) and/or with dependences (configuration number 4). Originality/value: Vital value of this paper is the use of fs/QCA, a technique that is an important novelty, at least in the field of R&D cooperation relationships between companies and research organizations. This method allows testing the configuration of conditions in relation to a specific outcome (e.g. success of science-industry R&D cooperation) in a way that is not possible using a linear additive approach.

It is widely known that airports due to their character of everyday operations constitute a suitable environment for performing various safety related events. A large number of objects conducting series of operations within limited space and time increases potential for a particular accident or incident realization. According to their structure, accidents or incidents typical for airports in most cases combine mutually related negative influences that create preconditions and precursors (factors) for particular safety events. The aim of this paper is to provide a clear view on the organizational factors which represent integral elements of airport safety management and also to offer the solution for their better utilization for more effective identification and prevention of risk at the airport. The study takes into account different aspects of airport operations, management, decision-making processes, process monitoring, etc.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between organizational and personal (individual) factors with the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) in office workers of the Iranian Gas Transmission Company. The participants rated two questionnaires – the standardized Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire to measure the prevalence of MSDs, and the Veterans Healthcare Administration All Employee Survey questionnaire (2004 version) – to measure psychosocial, organizational and individual aspects of job satisfaction and workplace climate. The highest prevalence of MSDs was found in the lower back (49.7%) and neck (49.0%) regions. Results of the logistic regression models showed that some psychosocial and organizational factors and also some individual factors were associated with prevalence of MSDs (p < 0.05).These ﬁndings illustrate the need to consider all elements of the work system as a whole in future studies and in organizational planning.

Relacje między stylami kierowania a czynnikami organizacyjnymi stały się ostatnio szczególnie ważnym obszarem badań. W organizacjach, które obecnie podlegają nieustannym zmianom, oprócz indywidualnych determinant stylów kierowania znaczenia nabierają czynniki organizacyjne kierowania. Niniejszy artykuł przedstawia wyniki badań nad identyfikacją stylów kierowania polskich menedżerów za pomocą standaryzowanego kwestionariusza Style Kierowania Menedżerów (SKM) oraz w analizie skupień identyfikacji czterech charakterystycznych profili kierowania, jak pseudokierownicy, pseudodemokraci, naturalni liderzy i makiaweliści. Ponadto zdiagnozowano organizacyjne źródła zmienności stylów kierowania. Wielozmiennowa analiza wariancji wykazała, że typ firmy, szczebel zarządzania, staż pracy i liczba podwładnych mają istotne znaczenie w odniesieniu do indywidualnego stylu kierowania ludźmi.

Relationships between leadership styles and organizational factors have recently become an area of focus for scientific research. Organizational factors, along with individual determinants of leadership, are becoming increasingly more important in organizations, which are nowadays in constant flux. This article presents research results pertaining to identifying leadership styles using standardized questionnaire Managerial Styles of Leading Questionnaire and via cluster analysis categorizing four specific leadership profiles, i.e. Pseudo managers, Pseudo democrats, Natural leaders and Machiavellians. In addition, organizational basis of variance in leadership styles was examined. Multifactor variance analysis showed that type of organization, position in management hierarchy, seniority and number of people managed play significant role in utilizing individual leadership styles.

That supply chain management and logistics are a determining factor for the long term success of a company was well documented by Forrester over a half century ago [1], with the importance of the statement only growing through the intervening years. Whether consciously factored into the operating mode or not, logistics and distribution channel management plays a critical role in the life, and death, of a firm. From the rudimentary beginnings of the start-up company to the hectic world of the growth company and onto the relatively secure existence in mature markets, the value chain consisting of logistics and distribution channel linkages follows the firm, until it solidifies into immutable form of the mature value chain and begins to exert an inexorable pressure on the survival of the entire chain, and conversely the chain imposes its will on the members. The emergence of mature industry value chains is often driven by the need to monopolistically control logistics and distribution channels which provides a competitive advantage but also introduces a serious exposure to pending shock loadings of the chain.

Many factors affect success of organization. Factors as knowledge, capability, personalities, internal motivation, organizational environment are factors of organization. Implementation of the quality management system (QMS) into organization brings great number of changes seeking to the excellence. These changes are very significant also for other factors: policy, planning, organizing, organizational structure, culture of the quality and similar. Certainly, for observable effects of these changes time is needed. This paper presents results of researches of selected organizational factors in organizations in the area of Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H). Results of these researches were obtained by triangulation method. Information were received from 204 certified organizations, 31 consultants and 11 certification houses from B&H. Data were collected using questionnaires. Authors considered data due to the activity of organization (manufacturing and/or service activity), from the point of view company size and due to the time elapsed since the implementation of QMS. Authors especially dealt with the influence of time of possession the certified quality system on selected organizational factors (with keynote statement that quality system should be built "yesterday, but not tomorrow"). Authors studied if organizations which introduced QMS earlier have achieved greater positive effects on organizational factors that other companies.
