Banking industry is considered the most crucial financial intermediary in service sector in any state. The concept of knowledge management has been around for past many decades but its true potential has been realised in recent times. Despite of so much attention to this concept, its perfect description and explanation is still far from complete. As Knowledge Management (KM) practices have benefitted many business organizations from various industries, its adaptation to the banking institutions is still unrealised. Ever growing global competition has introduced a new world order, 'Innovate or Die'. Constant innovation is an enormous challenge for modern organizations. Many of the organizations look for concepts and practices to enable themselves to develop and maintain sustainable competitive advantages over others. Knowledge management (KM) philosophy has gained importance in the business world as one of the critical enablers for innovation activities. This study was conducted with the objective to investigate the impact of various dimensions of KM; knowledge acquisition, knowledge dissemination and responsiveness to knowledge on innovation in the banks of Faisalabad. The author used Structure equation modelling (SEM) technique to develop a model among three endogenous KM factors and one exogenous factor innovation and attempted to study this relationship with authentic empirical evidence and a firm belief that KM philosophy, if implemented in its true spirit, may improve the organization's ability to innovate and perform effectively. One of the major findings of the study was the significant effect of all three dimension of KM on innovation. The empirical evidence acquired through test results of the Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and structural model showed that all factors support innovation activities but on a different proportion. The results of the study indicated that responsiveness to knowledge has the most favorable effect on innovation, in comparison to other dimensions of KM. Knowledge gives best results when it is shared and used purposefully. Knowledge must be put in use through processes, routines and systems to promote innovation. Innovation is a result of active use of knowledge and idle knowledge is of no help for innovation.

شرح مجمل بسیط لأبیاتھما الشعریۃ، ودراسۃ مقارنۃ شعریۃ من حیث الأفکار والأسلوب والتعبیر والمعنیٰ.

3۔ ثالثاً:

أحیاناً تتشابه الشاعرتان في الأفکار والأسلوب والتعبیر، وأحیاناً أخری تختلفان عن بعضھما إختلافاً کلیاً.

4۔ رابعاً:

الشاعرتان نازك الملائکۃ وبروین شاکر کلاھما بارعتان في صناعۃ الألفاظ وإیصال الفکرۃ إلی القاريء أو السامع بشکل واضح ودقیق، وبتعبیر صادق يھز الکیان.

5۔ خامساً:

الحزن سائد في معظم قصائدھما، ولکن کان لدیھما القابلیۃ في التأقلم مع البيئۃ والظروف السیاسیۃ والإجتماعیۃ والعائلیۃ.

6۔ سادساً:

أعمال نازك الملائکۃ الأدبیۃ والشعریۃ والعلمیۃ أکثر من بروین شاکر، کما أن نازك الملائکۃ أکبر سناً، وأکثر تجربۃ، وأوسع خیالاً، وأدق تعبیراً، وأشمل وأوضح معان، وأطول قصائد من بروین شاکر.

دافعت الشاعرتان عن حقوق المرأۃ دفاعاً عظیماً، ولھما نفس الشعور في حمایۃ المرأۃ علی أساس أنھا أضعف قوۃً وأقل مرتبۃً من الرجال، وأنھا المظلومۃ والمعصومۃ في عالم الظلم والظلام وھو عالم الرجال.

What Makes Public Schools Successful: Exploring the Contributory Factors Behind Successful Public Primary Schools in District Sukkur, Sindh

In Sindh, public education sector is the largest system that provides education for the majority of enrolled children. Although, there is a common perception that public sector schools are declining, there are still some examples of successful public schools in the province of Sindh. The purpose of this study is to find out some examples of successful public primary schools from Sindh and to explore the contributory factors behind those successful public primary schools. Within the qualitative paradigm multiple case study methodology was used to gain an in-depth understanding of the phenomena. The study was exploratory in nature and carried out in three public primary schools of district Sukkur, Sindh. It includes headteachers, SMC members and senior teachers from selected schools and district education officers. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions and field notes. Findings of the study reveal that the team work of competent and committed teachers and school leader is the major contributory factor behind the success of public primary schools. Furthermore, project-based interventions, official support and community involvement are supportive factors for school success. In brief, this research shows that there are examples of successful public schools in Sindh, which counters the assumption that all public schools are essentially failing. The research also suggests that there are various contributory factors which work in complex formulations to achieve the overall school success, however motivated teachers and school leader were found to be the biggest game-changer. It needs to be acknowledged that these schools are working in harsh circumstances and deserve appreciation. The findings of the study would certainly be beneficial for public schools having similar contextual realities, to improve and achieve success. It is also hoped that the findings of this research help create disjuncture within existing discourse of public versus private education.
