The study links employee performance appraisal with remuneration and other used features for capacity building of employees. Methods. The research consists of primary and secondary data, according to the quantitative method with deductive approach by using the comparison of correlation in analysis. Apart from literature review, the research involves surveys with different entities that would bring an insight into the present situation pertaining to reward practices. Results. The study confirms the significance of the problem between performance evaluation and reward, since there is a weak connection between reward systems and employee' needs. The majority of respondents approve that reward is bound to the systematic performance appraisal. Results indicate that work experience, acquired knowledge and skills are more often being used, based on high correlation coefficient .435-.784. The ANOVA model shows the accuracy of the regression model with the significance p < .001, whereas the value of independent variables, 66.766 may be used for further research. Conclusions. There is a slight difference between public and private companies concerning the research phenomenon, which makes it a good topic for further research in this field. Based on the study outcomes, we recommend that managers can use promotion as a tool to motivate employees to perform at a higher level and attain their work objectives, especially those that operate in private sector.

Even though studies often show that employees tend to report enjoying their jobs, however organisations continuously face with staff turnover due to various reasons, and therefore fail to fulfill its objectives. This paper reflects upon classical and modern views of motivation aspects. And the research includes different entities all around Kosovo that bring an insight into the present situation pertaining to motivation of employees and possibly identify potential mistakes and suggestion for the process improvements within organisations. According to results, the turnover average rate in investigated enterprises is within a natural range. Meanwhile the, management is advised to make the employees aware that rewards are recognition of a job well done and not simply the goal of doing the work. Whilst, bonuses in cash prevails dominantly the motivation system in investigated enterprises, many of them seem to use evaluation of performance as a tool for remuneration policy. Whereas in most cases remuneration depends on the annual profit of the enterprise, reasons for leaving are not being recorded in a system. Yet, financial incentives are an important motivator for most people, money is not the only motivator and, in some cases, is not the primary motivator for everyone. A qualitative approach and theory based application were considered for this study.

Nga analiza e gjendjes ambientale në Kosovë vlerësohet se të gjithë elementet dhe komponentët e mjedisit jetësor (ajri, uji, dheu) janë të rrezikuara. Rrezikimi i ambientit në Kosovë është rezultat i ndotjes së ambientit, i ndërtimeve të pakontrolluara, prerjes së pakontrolluar të pyjeve, erozionit të dheut, nga menaxhimi i dobët i mbeturinave, si dhe aktiviteteve të tjera humane. Raporti i mjedisit natyror me rritjen ekonomike është reciprok sa edhe i ndërlikuar. Një zhvillim i qëndrueshëm i sektorëve të ndryshëm ekonomik nuk mund të imagjinohet pa një mjedis të shëndoshë natyror. Lidhur me këtë tematikë në punim janë trajtuar konceptet kyçe të mjedisit dhe janë identifikuar sektorët e ndryshëm ekonomik që kanë ndikim në mjedisin natyror. Në përmbyllje, është propozuar një model i detajuar me masat adekuate për mbrojtjen e mjedisit dhe rrjedhimisht inicimin e një zhvillimi të qëndrueshëm ekonomik.

Zhvillimi rapid tekniko-teknologjik dhe rritja e konkurrencës në tregjet globale po i shtyjnë ndërmarrjet që vazhdimisht të ndryshojnë, të ristrukturohen, investojnë në teknologji të reja dhe të minimizojnë koston e prodhimit me të vetmin objektiv – që të mbesin konkurrentë në treg. Kështu që, mësimi organizativ po bëhet me rëndësi të jashtëzakonshme nëse organizatat dëshirojnë të kenë sukses. Aplikimi praktik i këtij procesi premtues është i kushtueshëm pasi që kërkon investime në teknologjitë moderne të informacionit. Rrjedhimisht, duke marrë parasysh kapacitetin e vogël veprues dhe burimet e kufizuara me të cilat disponojnë ndërmarrjet e vogla dhe të mesme, lind pyetja se a kanë mundësi që këto ndërmarrje të aplikojnë këtë proces modern? NVM-të që të jenë konkurrentë dhe të sigurojnë qëndrueshmëri duhet të përqendrohen më tepër në diturinë e fshehur dhe në shfrytëzimin e trendeve të teknologjisë së informacionit sepse ndikimi i tij është i konsiderueshëm në zhvillimin e mësimit organizativ.

Qeveria përdor instrumente të ndryshme për të stimuluar rritjen e ekonomisë, për të ulur papunësinë dhe për të arritur objektivat makroekonomike. Në kontekst të rritjes së ngadalshme ekonomike të viteve të fundit dhe të presioneve fiskale, Kosova ballafaqohet me sfidën komplekse të zhvillimit ekonomik. Papunësia vazhdon të jetë në një shkallë të lartë. Kërkesa për fuqi punëtore është ende shumë e ulët dhe krijimi i një ambienti që do të favorizojë formimin e vendeve të qëndrueshme të punës është një detyrë sfiduese që kërkon reforma shumëdimensionale në ekonomi. Ky punim adreson çështjen e impaktit të politikës fiskale në zbutjen e papunësisë, rritjen e investimeve dhe të konsumit për të gjeneruar rritje ekonomike të qëndrueshme.

The Privatisation Agency of Kosovo (PAK) is responsible for the privatisation and
liquidation of Socially Owned Enterprises in Kosovo. One of the challenges that PAK is
facing since its establishment is the unresolved status of “Gjakova companies”. These
enterprises are pretending to be JSCs, arguing to have been transformed / privatised
during the nineties with then applicable and non-discriminatory laws. This way, these
companies are continuously rejecting the jurisdiction of the Agency. As of 2012, the
Agency failed to privatise most of them due to tremendous resistance of companies.
Thus, the aim of the paper is to assess whether the goal of teh Agency to sell them has to
do with privatisation vs re-privatisation of certain companies.

Në Kosovë ekziston një numër i madh i bizneseve të reja të regjistruara, por shumica prej tyre nuk kanë arritur t'iu bëjnë ballë ndryshimeve ekonomike të tregut, konkurrencës, ambientit e shumë barrierave tjera. Shpesh herë shkak i falimentimit janë edhe mungesa e eksperiencës, menaxhimi i dobët, marketingu i varfër, si edhe vendimet e gabuara të cilat qojnë në rrugën e dështimit. Për të konstatuar shkaqet e dështimit janë konsultuar të dhënat statistikore të vitit 2012, 2013, 2014, dhe 2015 lidhur me regjistrimin dhe dështimin e bizneseve të reja. Këto të dhëna analizohen, si dhe krahasohen me rezultatet e hulumtimit. Në përmbyllje jepen disa rekomandime të përgjithshme, e sidomos për bizneset të cilave ju kërcënohet mbijetesa, që t'ju kushtojnë vëmendje dhe të merren parasysh gjatë zhvillimit dhe rritjes së tyre. Mesazhi i këtij punimi është që bizneset e brishta të sensibilizohen për vështirësitë të cilat i kanosen atyre, në mënyrë qe më pastaj të gjejnë një zgjidhje adekuate dhe me kohë për problemet eventuale me të cilat mund të ballafaqohet.

Skandia is the best sample of IC concept and will provide a lot of useful information to conduct the respective project. As a multinational company, Skandia group, develops activities around the globe, and is the pioneer in implementing the concept of IC. Hence, it was chosen to be the subject of this case study research. The research includes interviews, with several people in different positions, in each management level into which every interview is interpreted through hermeneutic approach in order to achieve a better understanding of the phenomenon of the study. The research were made within different offices of company in various cities in Sweden. The study applies the descriptive case study approach, whilst investigated the possibility of gaps of IC between Knowing-Doing. The research shows that the concepts of IC and knowing-doing gap, could be found in headquarters of Skandia to a large extent, and this way basic assumption about a possible gap was verified. The implementation of IC within Skandia and its employees is for sure not completed yet. Also the shareholders are not convinced by the concept if one looks at Skandia´s performance on the stock markets. Nevertheless it offers a rhetorically positive way to tackle future challenges. In that respect this study got a deeper understanding concerning Skandia and IC. The research made many things visible that were not seen in the literature so far.

Qëllimi i punimit është të nxjerr në pah rezultatet nga procesi i privatizimit, që është ndërmarrë nga Agjencia Kosovare e Mirëbesimit (AKM), si dhe të analizojë performancën e saj. Një qasje e tillë ka bërë të mundur identifikimin e të metave, gabimeve dhe lëshimeve të bëra. Në këtë mënyrë, është krijuar mundësia për të sugjeruar që agjencia e re e privatizimit të intervenojë në pika të caktuara me qëllim që të përmirësojë performancën e saj në vazhdën e përmbushjes së objektivave të veta. Të dhënat empirike janë marrë nga hulumtimet e bëra me ndërmarrjet e privatizuara, si dhe nga baza e të dhënave të AKM-së. Në pjesën hyrëse theksohet domosdoshmëria e transformimit të pronës shoqërore në atë private drejt krijimit të parakushteve për zhvillimin e një ekonomie të shëndoshë të tregut. Në vazhdim, në pjesën e dytë prezantohet korniza ligjore dhe administrative e AKM-së, si dhe struktura organizative e saj. Në pjesën e tretë të titulluar " efektet ekonomike të privatizimit " paraqitet ndërlidhja e të dhëna makroekonomike me privatizimin në përgjithësi. Në këtë pjesë prezantohen edhe dhjetë raste të suksesshme të privatizimit. Në vijim pasqyrohen rezultatet e gjithmbarshme të privatizimit të gjertanishëm, sfidat dhe vështirësitë e procesit. Identifikimi i të metave dhe përparësive kryesore të procesit të privatizimit i hapin rrugën analizës dhe krahasimit të këtyre të dhënave. Duke marrë parasysh vështirësitë dhe specifikat e procesit, kompleksitetin e pronës shoqërore, si dhe në anën tjetër kushtet dhe rrethanat në të cilat gjendet vendi ynë, është konkluduar se procesi i privatizimit ka qenë i suksesshëm. Transformimi i pronës shoqërore është cilësuar jo vetëm si i domosdoshëm por edhe me rëndësi vitale për zhvillimin ekonomik. Privatizimi ka gëzuar dhe vazhdon të gëzojë përkrahjen e plotë nga të gjithë. Vlen të theksohet se autori ishte i përfshirë në privatizim për katër vite me rradhë (2004 – 2008). Ky fakt konsiderohet si një privilegj për qasje të shumëfishta në të dhëna. Krahas përvojës së fituar dhe observimit nga afër të procesit të privatizimit autorit i është mundësuar që këtë punim ta përfundojë me sukses.

macroeconomic data and privatization in general is displayed. In addition, some success stories of privatization are
also included in this part. The next part includes updated privatization results, challenges and difficulties of the
process. The identification of main advantages and weaknesses of the privatization process open the path toward
analyses of data. Taking into consideration the modalities and difficulties of the privatization process, complexity

Kosovo's economy in 2012 has been increased, but the growth rate was lower compared to previous years. The slowdown in economic progress has been caused due to global economic developments. This is because foreign direct investments and exports declined more pronounced in 2012, while imports also were characterized by slower growth. It should also be noted that increased public investments and remittances have had a tremendous contribution to economic activity. In the context of slow economic growth in recent years and fiscal pressures, Kosovo is faced with the complex challenge of unemployment, which still remains at a high level. The demand for labor is still very low and establishment of a favorable environment that would create sustainable jobs will be a challenging task that requires reforms in the economic policy. Hence, this paper addresses one of the deepest challenges of Kosovo that is domestic economic capacity to generate economic growth. By analyzing the economic factors affecting economic development, this paper identifies barriers and though discusses real opportunities for a better economic growth pattern to finally highlight the recommendations.

Taken collectively, they demonstrate the continuing power of Dewey's philosophy to inspire, clarify, and critique contemporary educational ideas and practices. I will have a few words to say about these papers below, but first I want to put them in context. The John Dewey Society, in its current form, has three operational missions: (1) to encourage, and contribute to, critical inquiry into pressing contemporary issues in culture, society, and education in the spirit of John Dewey; (2) to foster and provide venues for new educational knowledge; and (3) to encourage studies of the philosophy of John Dewey and American pragmatism. In recent years, the society has served mission (1) by the publication of its blog Social Issues, its new journal, School and Society, its Commission on Social Issues, and occasionally, by organizing its John Dewey Lectures and Symposia on social and cultural issues at its annual meetings. It has served mission (2) through the publication of this journal, Education and Culture, and the journal Educational Theory, which it cosponsors with the University of Illinois Department of Educational Theory and Policy. Some Dewey Lectures and Symposia also fall into this second category. Our sister organization, the John Dewey Studies Special Interest Group (SIG) at the American Educational Research Association (AERA), is also devoted to this educational studies mission and it frames its annual meeting around studies in the Dewey tradition. Roughly five years ago, the executive committee of the Dewey Society decided to create an annual panel of papers, selected from submissions responding to a specified call, on major works of Dewey himself, in order to serve mission (3). We have been gratified by the response to this new effort, as each call has generated many submissions. The panel has been labeled the Past President's Panel (or PPP) because the members of the executive committee wanted to create a significant role for the past presidents of the society in order to keep them active and visible. In the initial conception, the president-elect would organize the call and the selection process, and a past president would be selected to respond to the presentations. The name of the panel led to a number of problems. Some past presidents assumed that this would be an invited panel of past presidents, and were frustrated when the expected invitations did
