Ecologists have documented the process of plant succession for centuries, yet the successional patterns exhibited by microbial communities have received relatively little attention. We examine recent work on microbial succession and show how, despite some key differences, studies of plant succession can serve as a template for understanding microbial succession. We divide the broad range of pat...

Purpose: This study examines how succession planning (SP) for Chief Executive Officers (CEO) of high-performing organizations in emerging markets ensures the steady success business continuity through competitive advantage and organizational growth. It also takes a keen interest role board directors perpetuating practices key qualities expected future CEOs which include value-added competencies...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate several antecedents succession planning in family firms: founder status, the chief executive officer (CEO)’s inability let go and CEO’s gender. Design/methodology/approach This study conducts moderated mediation analysis on a sample 259 firms. Findings results show that firms led by founders lower levels than descendant CEOs. effect mediated g...

Succession rules having a rational generating function are usually called rational succession rules. In this note we discuss some problems concerning rational succession rules, and determine a simple method to pass from a rational generating function to a rational succession rule, both defining the same number sequence. 2

In the last few decades, we have developed a substantial body of knowledge about CEO succession. However, except for some studies of family businesses that lack direct applicability to nonfamily CEO succession, the past studies of succession have not examined the very first succession event in a firm, when the Founder-CEO is replaced, on a largescale basis. The critical differences between late...

1. Succession and restoration are intrinsically linked because succession comprises species and substrate change over time and restoration is the purposeful manipulation of that change. 2. During succession both orderly and unpredictable patterns emerge but some general rules offer theoretical and practical insights for restoration activities. These insights are not often utilized due to inadeq...

Estate planning is a financial tool for an individual to manage wealth upon his incapacitation or death. Although there are numerous studies on estate planning, still needs be effort systematically review the measurements. The paper aims literature published between 1990 2021 and evaluate measures of its methodological qualities. systematic process was guided by PRISMA protocol, where articles ...

In the past decades, the world’s food production was mostly practiced by a monoculture system, i.e., growing only a crop over an area. The monoculture causes damages (or changes) to the biological diversity, especially the soil fertility. The sustainable agriculture is an approach of managing crop ecology in order to maintain the biological diversity, productions and long-term human existence. ...

Neural representation of auditory regularities can be probed using the MMN, a component of ERPs generated in the auditory cortex by any violation of that regularity. Although several studies have shown that visual information can influence or even trigger an MMN by altering an acoustic regularity, it is not known whether audiovisual regularities are encoded in the auditory representation suppor...

Presentation of two targets in close temporal succession often results in an impairment of conscious perception for the second stimulus. Previous studies have identified several electrophysiological correlates for this so-called 'attentional blink'. Components of the event-related potential (ERP) such as the N2 and the P3, but also oscillatory brain signals have been shown to distinguish betwee...
