All organizations inevitably must deal with various critical situations. This requires providing the necessary resilience-building infrastructure and facilities. A review of the research literature reveals that scholars have examined factors affecting Organizational Resilience (OR) from different perspectives. This paper aims to compile and synthesize qualitative findings of previous research to gain an in-depth understanding and provide a list of effacing factors to organizations on their improvement practices related to OR. In conducting a systematic literature review, 98 articles were selected for final analysis. The data were analyzed, summarized, and synthesized in a step-by-step coding process, where 14 themes were identified as factors influencing OR. The identified factors included flexibility, control, redundancy and resources, planning and preparedness, decision-making, social capital, resilience policymaking, organizational culture, staff, financial and economic viability, collaboration, customers and markets, modernization discourse, and learning. Through a meta-synthesis of qualitative findings, this study is one of the first to form a novel perspective for offering a holistic understanding of affecting factors that provide evidence to support improvement practices in OR.

Entrepreneurial teams significantly influence the growth, profitability, and innovation of new businesses, specifically in Information Technology (IT) start-ups. However, there is limited knowledge about the impact of personal characteristics of entrepreneurial team members and their social interactions on the success of their business. This paper explores the effect of entrepreneurial team characteristics and their social interactions on the success of IT start-ups. The study employed a quantitative research design and data from 213 entrepreneurial teams in IT start-ups. The findings showed that heterogeneity, experience, self-efficacy, commitment, trust, and social interactions of entrepreneurial team members have a significant positive influence on the success of IT start-ups. Implications of the findings for policy, practice, and research development are discussed.

As well as social and cultural life, commercial life has also been affected by the industrial revolutions. Because the structures of enterprises have changed how their performance is evaluated, have indispensably changed. In today's brutally competitive environment, it is of great importance that enterprises constantly assess their performance so that they can maintain their existence firstly and achieve sustainable competitive advantage. Due to the current importance of the topic in this study, it was examined how the field of organizational performance has developed in the Industry 4.0 period. The purpose of this study is to reveal whether Industry 4.0 and the field of organizational performance show parallelism in terms of evolution. This parallelism was examined in terms of use of the artificial intelligence techniques in organizational performance evaluation methods. Therefore, available literature related the topic was reviewed by way of the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) protocol developed by Boell and Cecez-Kecmanovic [6] and the traditional literature review method. As a result of the research, it was seen that the field of organizational performancehas not developed in parallel with Industry 4.0 until now.

The study examines the relationship between passengers’ satisfaction and service quality in MMIA. The sample size for the study is a total of three hundred and eighty-four (384), meanwhile, 58.3 percent of response rate was valid for data analysis. 49.1 percent valid questionnaire responses were obtained from the international terminal while 50.9 percent valid questionnaire responses were obtained from the domestic terminal. From the survey, the majority of the respondent was male representing 62.5 percent. From correlation analysis, about 71.1 percent of all service dimensions give a positive and very strong correlation, while about 18.4 percent of all service dimensions give a positive and strong correlation, also about 7.9 percent of all service dimensions give a positive and weak correlation, and about 2.6 percent of all service dimensions give a positive and very weak correlation. Efficiency of available public transport options is the only service with a very weak correlation. The study also revealed that there is a relationship between passengers’ satisfaction and service quality at P.value less than 0.05. This signifies that service quality leads to passengers’ satisfaction. It is therefore suggested that airport services should be quality so as to have a corresponding effect on high passengers’ satisfaction.
