Q: One of the employees that I manage over has been making more and more mistakes lately. I know that I need to discuss this with him, but I am worried about the effects this might have on team morale. In the past, he has been a big asset to my team, and I want to make sure he is able to perform well again in the future. Do you have any advice on how I can approach him?
A: Taking corrective action with employees is a necessary and often difficult process for managers. Constructive feedback, along with the right process and a human relations approach, moves people from resistance to relating to their mistakes. Here are some tips on the correct way to approach an employee who may be making mistakes.

The Catholic Church has taken a leadership role in promoting human rights and democracy in Brazil, initiating a new approach to church-state relations. The bishops have recently announced a four-year plan under the title 'Rumo a Novo Milenio' or Way to the New Millennium that indicates a renewed focus on the church's participatory function as a force for liberation in this world. The model of church-state relations proposed by the bishops involves fostering civil society and democracy by focusing on service to society through the protection of human rights.

As Vietnam emerges into world markets, Vietnamese organizations are facing the predicament of how to avoid the low-cost labor trap and move up the production value-chain by improving quality and productivity. Continuous improvement (CI) practices have proved fundamental to building and sustaining competitive advantage in other Asian countries such as Japan, Singapore, and Malaysia. If Vietnamese organizations are to pursue higher value-added activities, CI will be critical for them, too. Despite the tremendous interest in Vietnam from the international business community, little research on Vietnamese management practices has been done, particularly on the use of CI techniques. The language barrier, lack of reliable business data, and the culture of government and corporate secrecy in V...

This article explores the ways in which the requirements of religious freedom in the the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (ECHR) permit certain types of relationships between Church and State but also restricts the scope of permissible relations. It provides a discussion of the permissible boundaries of church-state relations within the ECHR. It considers the key provisions in the ECHR that potentially impact church-state relations. It discusses the case law of the European Court of Human Rights in relation to the type of benefits that the state can grant to an established church and the degree of control that the state can exercise over it. It concludes by comparing the strengths and weaknesses of a purely religious-freedom focused approac...

In this paper we discuss the meaning of newness in research in the times when new paradigms of science are emerging and the sciences have become more and more fragmentary. In the positivistic and monolithic era of social science, before Kuhn and year 1966, methodologies and methods interpreting newness were simpler. In this paper it is argued the newness is more and more in the text itself, and that the dynamics of texts comes from interrelations between the subject of the text (the researcher self) and the object of it (the research audience). Scientific knowledge becomes new when it is substantiated and connected to the prior one Writing the research reports is political by nature but so is also its reading. While citation index makes researchers powerful, in gaining decisions whom to...
