A Comparative Study of Self-Perceived Employability Among Employees and Organizational Performance in Selected Private and Public Sector Organizations Pakistan
This study analyzes Self-Perceived Employability attributes among employees and its impact on
Organizational Performance of private and public sectors in respect of key supporting variables i.e. personal
attributes, occupational attributes, subjective career success, professional commitment, and internal and
external labour markets. The twenty first century recognizes tremendous benefits of Self-Perceived
Employability Attributes as a key of success for employees’ better performance as well as for organizational
development. After presenting a theoretical frame work; a conceptual model is proposed and tested with
AMOS (Analysis of Moment Structure) statistic technique to examine the impact of self-perceived
employability attributes on organizational performance. Disproportionate stratified random sampling
method was used to collect data from employees of private and public sectors’ organizations of twin cities,
Rawalpindi and Islamabad, Pakistan through a structured questionnaire. The sample size (n= 464) is selected
from total population of this study. This empirical investigation uses regression analysis, Tukey Test for mean
difference, and mean and standard deviation for data analysis with SPSS 15.0 version.
The findings validate the proposed model with significant correlation between self-perceived employability
attributes and organizational performance either in internal or external markets. This study, therefore
strongly advocates the implementation of self-perceived employability attributes among employees for better
organizational performance by means of improving employee’s performance either in private or public
sectors. The self-Perceived Employability attributes have a remarkable and immense importance in
developing countries and especially in Pakistan so that growing human inventory can be trained and
effectively used for sustained growth and human development.
Findings of the study support educational qualifications that play vital role to enhance self-perceived
employability attributes. Furthermore, as qualification increases, the self-perceived attributes also boost up
and then business education contributes more as compared to other categories of education. Eventually,
organizational performance will also be enhanced significantly.
In the light of regression analysis, the findings of the study significantly maintain training, especially during
service, which plays a dynamic role not only to enhance Self-Perceived Employability Attributes but also
organizational performance. It is generally observed that feminine gender shows better attributes than
masculine gender. Table 4.70 favours that private sector considers Self-Perceived Employability more
important for better organizational output than the public sector. Thereupon, the findings of the study support
self-perceived employability attributes which significantly enhance organizational performance for achieving
sustainable development and competitive advantage.
نعت عربی زبان کا لفظ ہے جس کے معنی تعریف یا وصف بیان کرنا کے ہیں اگرچہ عربی زبان میں اس مقصد کیلئے مدح کا لفظ استعمال کیا جاتا ہے۔مگر ادبی اصطلاح میں لفظ نعت نبی کریمﷺ کی مدح و تعریف کیلئے استعمال کیا جاتا ہے۔فارسی لغات میں نعت سے مراد نبی کریمﷺ کے اوصاف اور ثناء بیان کرنا کے ہیں۔اردو زبان کی ’’نور اللغات‘‘ میں لکھا ہے۔کہ یہ لفظ معنی مطلق وصف ہے۔اور اس کا استعمال نبی پاکﷺکی تعریف و ثناء کے بیان کے لیے وقف ہے۔اس لیے نعت کا لفظ عربی،فارسی،اردو،پنجابی اور دیگر زبانوں میں ایسے ہی معنوں میں استعمال ہوتا ہے اور وہ سارے اشعار اور نظمیں نعت کے گھیرے میں آ جاتی ہیں جن میں آپﷺ کے محاسن بیان ہوئے ہوں۔اس طرح نعت کا گھیرا وسیع سے وسیع تر ہوتا جاتا ہے۔چونکہ نعت کا محور آپﷺ کی ذات پاک ہے۔اس لیے آپﷺ کی ذات سے صفات تک،افکار سے اعمال تک غرض ذات مقدس کا کوئی ایسا پہلو نہیں جو لغت کا موضوع نہ بنا ہو۔اخلاق ،سیرت،معجزات، غزوات، خطبات، عبادات، معاملات، عادات ،تعلیمات سب کچھ نعت کے گھیرے میں آ گئے ہیں۔
نعت کا وجود عربی ادب میں آپﷺ کی مبارک زندگی سے ہی نظر آتا ہے۔بہت سارے صحابہ کرام نے آپﷺکی پاک زندگی کے ایک ایک پل کو شعر وادب میں محفوظ کیا ہے۔یہی صحابہ کرام کا ورثہ تھا اور یہی ہمارا قیمتی اثاثہ ہے۔یوں تو اردو ادب میں لا تعداد شعراء کرام نے نبی پاکﷺ سے عقیدت و محبت کے اظہار کیلئے نعت گوئی کی،مگر بہت کم شعراء کرام ایسے ہیں جن کی ادب میں پہچان نعت گوئی بنی ہو۔دور حاضر کے ممتاز نعت گو شعراء کرام میں ایک نام جناب طالب حسین کوثریؔ کا بھی ہے۔جنہوں نے اپنی نعت...
This article aims to present a concise overview regarding global economic ideas and its historical development with brief evaluation of capitalism and communism as well as question of laissez-faire and concept of ownership in relation to Islamic economic thought.

Women Shamans in Louise Erdrich's Novel Texts This qualitative study is about the women shamans in the novel texts of Louise Erdrich. The women shamans, included in the study, belong to Native American culture that had been stereotyped, labeled and defined by the theoretical frameworks of the colonial masters, and therefore, this resistance has been highlighted in the analysis of the novel texts, by utilizing a theoretical framework that gives proper representation to the native women. This study is about the understanding of the roles of these women shamans in their native contexts in a quest to find the hidden history behind the stories, which has been silenced by the authoritative colonial masters. The study is grounded in the colored feminist perspective of bell hooks and Paula Gunn Allen as the white theoretical underpinnings are unable to give proper representation to the perspectives of the indigenous people. The women shamans are analyzed in the interplay of myth, metaphor, narratives and emotions. The metaphors and emotions in the novel texts, challenge the authoritative and colonial gaze, which has marginalized the indigenous people and restricted them from their spiritual and peaceful traditions. The Colonial patterns and discursive strategies still persist in the lives of the indigenous women. The study is about the role of these women shamans in their tribes, and the manner in which they challenge the patriarchal, dominant and sexist thinking. The mythic world of shamans and the interplay of myth, metaphors and emotions give rise to these narratives and the analysis of these narratives give a critical insight into the lives of the Native Americans driven away from their lands and harmonic, matrilineal culture of their ancestors to the margins. The study focuses on the conceptual metaphors analyzed in the cultural context of the native women while searching for the identity, family system, spirituality and religious traditions of the indigenous women.
