How Group Leaders Build Stable Community Buying Groups:A Perspective Based on the Differential Mode of Association

Since 2016,community group buying has grown significantly in China,largely driven by its efficient logistics,supply chains,low prices,and convenience.This model has been further popularized during the COVID-19 pandemic due to its effectiveness in meeting daily needs while minimizing human-to-human contact.A key component of this business model is the“group leaders”-influential individuals within a community responsible for managing group buying activities,which include order collection,supplier liaison,and goods distribution.Their primary task is to form and sustain a reliable community group buying consortium,a task that demands excellent organizational and interpersonal skills.This paper examines this phenomenon using the lens of the differential mode of association,a theoretical model explaining interpersonal relationships in traditional Chinese society.The research indicates that group leaders,through regular interaction with consumers,are able to alter their social network position,increase their influence,understand consumer needs,provide satisfying services,and enhance trust,thereby transforming consumers into loyal group buying participants.This transformation not only brings stability to group buying activities but also reinforces the community influence of group leaders,thus fostering the growth of community group buying.

The Critical Role of Middle Leaders in Schools:Cultivating a Culture of Trust and Supporting Educational Reform

This research delves into the often-underappreciated role of middle leaders in educational organizations,highlighting their significance as the linchpins between senior leadership and classroom teachers.Utilizing qualitative research methods,the study investigates the multifaceted responsibilities,challenges,and contributions of middle leaders in schools.Findings indicate that middle leaders foster a culture of trust within the institution by providing mentorship and guidance to new teachers.They undertake substantial tasks,such as team coordination,grade direction,and student supervision,in addition to their teaching duties.Despite their pivotal role,middle leaders often face mounting pressures and heavy workloads.This research underscores the need to recognize and support middle leaders in educational settings,acknowledging their vital role in fostering cohesion and facilitating the implementation of educational reforms.

The Era of Heydar Aliyev,the Great Leader of the Azerbaijani People

For the understanding of geniuses,historical figures,artists,and every individual as a whole,it is necessary to study his era,because various global and even the smallest(subconscious)events that take place in all eras have their influence on the human consciousness from the womb to the grave.In this existence(consciousness),the events of the era,which are infinite in scale,are transformed into a treasure of thought(archive).This treasure,which is in the essence of“infinity”(∞-),is enriched step by step from simple knowledge to fundamental scientific knowledge,thus shaping his worldview through countless events.From this point of view,era and worldview are phenomena that are in unity and one determines the other.In other words,the highest determination of philosophy-when explaining the concept of time with questions,the idea covered by it,man,nature,etc.,answers related to the worldview factor are given in the contents and essences.Or,on the contrary,the understanding of the worldview of any person acquires an objective-logical value with the characteristics of his era.Because of its position,it is worth noting that every era leaves its mark on history with“extraordinary”important memory phenomena that change the world and hold the whole world and mankind under its charm,which is also considered as globalization in the world with the current terminology(globalization in the old dictionary).Also,each period has its own historical content and the fact that the most global event,including the genius,is named in honor of the person of the time,contains the importance of this or that period,as well as the historical stage,Stone Age,Antiquity,Renaissance,Enlightenment-Modernism,“Golden Age”,Critical Socialism,etc.A feature of the periods is related to the human factor.There had never been a period in history that did not produce its own geniuses and historical personalities.It is not even an exception to the eras related to the names of geniuses and historical figures.For example,the 11th-19th centuries are called the“Dark Ages”or the Homeric era,as well as Homeric Greece.In addition to Shakespeare era,Golden era,Voltaire(Voltaire era),etc.,there are periods of people who left a mark on history with negative thoughts,Stalin era,Adolf Hitler era,etc.There are still geniuses;they are considered as the Man of the century,the hero of the century.As an example of such historical figures,we can show“people”of different centuries,for example,Socrates,Aristotle,Galileo Galilei,Confucius,and countless geniuses,including K.Marx,V.I.Lenin,A.Einstein,M.K.Atatürk,M.Gandhi,etc.;when their names are mentioned,this or that period comes to mind.In this regard,the 20th century is no exception.He entered the history of world politics as an outstanding statesman in the 20th century,who left his mark with the deep content of the events unfolding in history,his successes,and achievements,as well as his complex and even tragic days.In this article,we will talk about the“era”of Heydar Aliyev,the great leader of the Azerbaijani people,one of the geniuses of the 20th century,a powerful state builder,outstanding national leader-the life of his birth,80 years of life service to his people with honor.In our opinion,our analyses,facts,and evaluations will add an important page to the world scientific to world scientific thought and political-philosophical history.

Observation and analysis of positive leader re-illumination in a 10 m ultra-high voltage transmission line gap under switching impulse voltages

The leader propagation is one of the most important stages in long air gap discharge.The mechanism behind leader re-illumination remains unclear.In high humidity conditions(20.0–30.1 g/m^(3)),we have conducted experiments of long sparks in a 10 m ultra-high voltage(UHV)transmission line gap under switching impulse voltages.The positive leaders predominantly propagate discontinuously,with almost no significantly continuous propagation occurring.The leader channels are intensely luminous and each elongation segment is straight,with streamers resembling the“branch type”which differs from the“diffuse type”streamers at the front of continuous propagation leaders.The distribution of the propagation velocities is highly random(3.7–18.4 cm/μs),and the average velocity(9.2 cm/μs)significantly exceeds that of continuous propagation(1.5–2.0 cm/μs).Analysis suggests that the current-velocity models suitable for continuous leader propagation do not align well with the experimental data in re-illumination mode.Based on the discharge current waveforms and optical images,it is speculated that the newly elongated leader in re-illumination mode does not evolve gradually from the stem(about 1 cm)but rather evolves overall from a thermal channel much longer than stem.

Image Recognition Model of Fraudulent Websites Based on Image Leader Decision and Inception-V3 Transfer Learning

The fraudulent website image is a vital information carrier for telecom fraud.The efficient and precise recognition of fraudulent website images is critical to combating and dealing with fraudulent websites.Current research on image recognition of fraudulent websites is mainly carried out at the level of image feature extraction and similarity study,which have such disadvantages as difficulty in obtaining image data,insufficient image analysis,and single identification types.This study develops a model based on the entropy method for image leader decision and Inception-v3 transfer learning to address these disadvantages.The data processing part of the model uses a breadth search crawler to capture the image data.Then,the information in the images is evaluated with the entropy method,image weights are assigned,and the image leader is selected.In model training and prediction,the transfer learning of the Inception-v3 model is introduced into image recognition of fraudulent websites.Using selected image leaders to train the model,multiple types of fraudulent websites are identified with high accuracy.The experiment proves that this model has a superior accuracy in recognizing images on fraudulent websites compared to other current models.

One decentralized state control rule is constructed for each agent to track the active leader and it is proved that the proposed control scheme enables the consensus to be obtained when the adjacency topology is fixed/switched. Simulation results show effectiveness of the proposed theoretical analysis.

Evaluation of the effects of a leader-training program on public health nurse leadership for staff in Japan

This paper is a report of a study of the effects of a leader-training program, focusing on how public health nurse (PHN) leaders manage staff. In Japan, a system of training after graduation or training after acquisition of the PHN license has not been established. At present, PHN leaders are unable to devote as much time as they previously could to in-service education, and this has made it difficult to establish a suitable full-fledged in-service education system. Therefore, it is paramount for PHN leaders to acquire the necessary competence to train staff efficiently and, ultimately, play a more prominent role in the in-service education of novice PHNs. The effecttiveness of this program was evaluated before and after conducting the program over a 1-year period. A total of 145 leaders working for local government agencies in Japan participated in the program, and data from 87 participants were analyzed. Before the training program, Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle activities were less frequent than after the program. Intervention using a leader-training program that combines group and on-the-job training is effective for PHN leaders.

Economics Analysis for Information Flow of the Leader Dynamic Management in Virtual Enterprise

The virtual enterprise will play a more and more im po rtant role in economy development. The virtual enterprise leader raises market a daptability and group cooperation ability through its dynamic management. Thus t he validity and efficiency of leader’s dynamic management determines the efficie ncy of the virtual enterprise operation, and the validity of the information flo w is one of the main factors. In this paper, the validity of the information flo w in the course of the leader’s dynamic management in the virtual enterprise is analyzed by using the economic searching theory and the information theory, and the possible ways to improve the validity and efficiency of leader’s dynamic man agement are indicated. Firstly, the basic concepts such as leader’s dynamic management, virtual enterpr ise, and its leader are defined. The dynamic management procedure for the virtua l enterprise leader is analyzed with the dynamic theory raised by Mowshowitz. Secondly, the model for the dynamic management of the virtual enterprise leader is constructed using multi-goal selection. The information flow validity for th e leader during the stages of the identification and the establishment is analyz ed with the economic searching theory and the information theory. Meanwhile, the value of the dynamic management policy is discussed with the information va lue theory. Finally, two ways to improve the validity of the information flow are obtained. The first way is to process the various kinds of information of the existing mem bers in the virtual enterprise for the future cooperative usage and to extend th e selective objects for the leader, and to make the detailed and clear mechanism of the object evaluation and selection (the market chance and the cooperative partner). The other way is to build the system of the effective transfer and process of the feedback information flow during the operation of the virtual ent erprise based on the information technology.

The Importance of Cultural Intelligence for Leader to Communicate Effectively: Case Study in Micro Small Medium Enterprises

Micro Small Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Indonesia play huge part of national economic development because MSMEs can reduce unemployment rate. But, it is not easy to manage MSMEs well so it can be sustainable. There are some reasons why MSMEs are difficult to sustain, i.e., good management people by communicate effectively. Authors believe that one of important ability that owners, as a leader, must have in order to communicate effectively is cultural intelligence. Even in MSMEs, cultural intelligence plays important part because employees in MSMEs are diverse. They come from different region (mean having different tradition) and have different level of education. Methodology that is used in this article is qualitative method, and techniques of data collection are interview and observation. Technique of choosing informant is purposive and convenience while data analysis is using content analysis. The result of this study shows that leaders in MSMEs already have cultural intelligence to communicate with their employee. Leaders who have cultural intelligence can choose right method to communicate effectively with their employee.

Culture-Based Leadership for School Principal in the Era of Millennial Generation in ASEAN

The era of the AEC(ASEAN Economic Community)is an era of regional globalization,and this needs to be examined carefully in the world of education in Indonesia so that Indonesia’s HRs(Human Resources)are ready to face increasingly fierce competition with other countries.In this regard,it is necessary to lead a culture-based education leader at the school level to produce quality education that is able to produce students who have personality integrity,disciplined attitude,and are creative,innovative,and competitive.Education in ASEAN countries has now entered the era of globalization,where one of them is marked by the ease in which people get information from various parts of the world as a result of rapid technological developments.This has both positive and negative influences on those who receive it.The positive influence of globalization on changes in values and attitudes causes a shift in values and attitudes of all irrational people to be rational while the negative influence of globalization on society is that people feel facilitated with advanced technology that makes them feel they no longer need others in their activities,where sometimes they forget that they are social beings who need to interact with one another.
