La Apoteosis de Hércules: un discurso humanista en la Sevilla del Renacimiento
Authors: Castillo Herrera Juan José
Published: June 2020

El presente trabajo versa sobre la plasmación de las ideas humanistas del Renacimiento italiano de la 2ª mitad del s. XV en la pintura sevillana de los ss. XVI y XVII.  El discurso se articula en base a una serie de reflexiones sobre cómo el pensamiento neoplatónico de los humanistas italianos quedó plasmado en las formas artísticas italianas, europeas y españolas y, en particular, en la obra de Francisco Pacheco, en concreto, sus pinturas en la “Casa de Pilatos” de Sevilla: La Apoteosis de Hércules.  A través del estudio iconográfico y la interpretación de su discurso iconológico se establecen concordancias entre el pensamiento humanista y los principios del cristianismo con el fin de transmitir un mensaje moralizante.
Estética de la fotografía publicitaria
Authors: Sánchez Torreblanca Cristina María
Published: June 2020

La cultura contemporánea es eminentemente visual, y en ella, la publicidad juega un importante papel. Buscando comunicar y persuadir al espectador, estas imágenes se adaptan a una serie de estereotipos sociales y culturales en los que resulta imprescindible el carácter estético. En este trabajo se analizarán los anuncios realizados en el siglo XXI a través del medio fotográfico, con el fin de establecer su identificación en relación a las categorías estéticas de lo bello, lo sublime, lo trágico, lo feo, lo cómico y lo kitsch.
Intertextualidad y traducción: el caso de la traducción del manga Sailor V en la década de los noventa
Authors: Doncel-Moriano Urbano Salomón
Published: June 2020

La intertextualidad en sus diferentes tipos constituye una propiedad de los textos que resulta útil a la hora de decodificar, enriquecer o modificar su significado intencional por parte del receptor. El manga Sailor V muestra ejemplos claros de intertextualidad, así como distintos grados de mediación por parte del traductor en su versión al castellano, en la que se han empleado estrategias más o menos conservadoras con el objeto de mediar entre la autora y el lector, a fin de facilitar la comprensión de la miríada de mensajes que encierra la obra.
Nexos y paralelismos entre barroco y cultura mediática: el caso de Miguel Mañara
Authors: Millán Rebollo José María
Published: June 2020

Culturas tan aparentemente lejanas como el Barroco y el mundo mediático contemporá- neo presentan multitud de nexos, circunstancias y manifestaciones en común. A través del arquetípico personaje barroco Miguel Mañara pretendemos justificar estos paralelismos, atendiendo a su produc- ción cultural y artística en pleno siglo XVII, y a sus valores transversales que lo llevan a estar presente en las medios de masas actuales.
La complejidad de lo complejo
Authors: Rivas Herencia Eugenio
Published: June 2020

La presente investigación analiza el pensamiento complejo de Edgar Morin para refutar la hipótesis que defiende la imposibilidad de aprehender lo real desde una visión racionalista especializada. En su lugar se defiende el poder de un conocimiento múltiple que acepte la indecibilidad de nuestro mundo, la imposibilidad de ceñirlo bajo los parámetros de la razón para convertirlo en ideas. El objetivo del estudio es aceptar la verdad como convención.

Entre lo impactante y lo siniestro. Comentario a la obra de Maurizio Cattelan: Bidibidobidiboo, 1996
Authors: Castillo Herrera Juan José
Published: June 2020

A veces lo familiar puede convertirse en siniestro. Aquellas situaciones vividas antaño que pudieron ser, bien hogareñas, bien confortables, de repente pueden tornarse en pesadillas que, una y otra vez, vienen a golpear nuestras mentes, e incluso, martirizarlas. Maurizio Cattelan, en su obra Bidibidobidiboo (1996) [1] parece pretender acercarnos a recónditas zonas de sus más íntimos recuerdos, de sus más profundas experiencias, de sus más intensas vivencias. Muerte, angustia, desazón... son, entre otras muchas, algunas ideas que nos vienen a la mente cuando contemplamos su obra. Sea como fuere, no cabe duda de que su autor, con esta obra, consigue a la perfección que nos interroguemos sobre la misma, y que no consigamos marcar aquella delgada línea que separa lo impactante de lo siniestro.

Authors: Virgens Thiago Alexsandro Novaes das , Andrade José Célio Silveira , Hidalgo Sebastián Labella
Published: June 2020

O GHG Protocol se tornou o método mais utilizado no mundo para calcular as emissões de Gases de Efeito Estufa (GEE) nas organizações. No entanto, há um baixo reconhecimento das emissões de Escopo 3, seja por ser de caráter voluntário seja por apresentar dificuldades técnicas para calcular essas emissões. Devido ao fato de os órgãos públicos executarem maiormente serviços e consumir bens e serviços, o Escopo 3 é relevante e demanda adoção de método/ ferramenta de cálculo que facilitem estimá-lo. Neste sentido, este trabalho objetiva, de forma pioneira e inovadora, descrever os principais passos executados para calcular a Pegada de Carbono do Ministério Público da Bahia (MPBA)/ Brasil, no ano-base 2017, apresentar e validar, para o contexto brasileiro, a ferramenta de cálculo “BookFeel”, baseada no Método Composto pelas Contas Contábeis (MC3), evidenciando suas potencialidades e limitações e propor um guia para calcular a PC em órgãos públicos. Os resultados constataram que o BookFeel é uma ferramenta válida, flexível, fácil de usar e capaz de calcular a PC com amplo Escopo 3, respeitando as diretrizes do Ipcc, GHG Protocol e ISO 14064, tendo importantes diferenciais, entre eles: geração de gráficos na própria ferramenta; rastreabilidade de informações; cálculo de forma colaborativa e, principalmente, inserção de unidades monetárias, que viabilizam calcular a PC em organizações que não dispõem de informações sobre o consumo de bens e serviços expressos em unidades físicas. Preenchendo parte da lacuna existente, esta pesquisa lança luz para a necessidade e para uma forma viável de calcular a PC em órgãos públicos.

Peran Advokat dalam Upaya Membangun Penegakan Hukum yang Bermartabat
Authors: Sugiharto Imawan
Published: June 2020

Ketentuan pasal 1 ayat (3) UUD NRI Tahun 1945 menempatkan bangsa kita sebagai bangsa yang dianggap menganut paham ”rule oflaw” yang merupakan suatu legalisme hukum yang mengandunggagasan bahwa keadilan dapat dilayani melalui pembuatan sistem peraturan dan prosedur yang obyektif, tidak memihak, tidak personal dan otonom. Rule of law adalah konsep dimana seluruh aspek negara menjunjung tinggi supremasi hukum yang dibangun di atas prinsip keadilan dan egalitarian. Rule of law adalah rule by thelaw bukan rule by the man dimana penegakan hukum adalah suatu proses untuk mewujudkan keinginan-keinginan hukum menjadi kenyataan. Presentasi dari penegakan hukum dapat dilihat dari pasal 27 ayat (1) UUD NRI Tahun 1945 yang menyatakan bahwa segala warga negara bersamaan kedudukanya di dalam hukum dan pemerintahan dan wajib menjunjung hukum dan pemerintahan itu dengan tidak ada kecualinya. Paradigma bahwa di mata hukum kedudukan warga negara adalah sama dan tidak ada diskriminasi, baru merupakan wacana dan belum sepenuhnya terwujud dengan baik. Tujuan penulisan untuk melihat sejauh mana peran advokat dalam membangun peradilan yang bermartabat. Penulisan menggunakan pendekatan normatif konseptual. Pengumpulan data menggunakan kepustakaan dari berbagai literatur hukum. Pengelolaan data menggunakan reduksi data. Peran advokat sebagai profesi terhormat (officium nobile) dapat terwujud manakala advokat memberikan pencerahan kepada kliennya tentang perkara yang akan dihadapinya dengan mengedepankan nilai kode etik profesi advokat. Implikasi hukum untuk membawa profesi advokat dalam perananya membentuk peradilan yang bermartabat harus mematuhi dan menghormati marwah lembaga peradilan salah satunya yang sederhana dengan menjalankan larangan bagi para pihak berperkara untuk memasuki ruang hakim demikian dilakukan untuk menjaga marwah dalam proses peradilan.

Authors: Jiriko R. K. , Mbah E. N. , Amah N. E.
Published: June 2020

The study was carried out to determine devastating impacts of flood disaster among rural households in Benue State, Nigeria. Questionnaire was used to collect data from a sample of 145 respondents used for the study. Data collected for the study were analyzed using mean score. Findings indicated that the major causes of flood disaster were poor level of public awareness campaign on flood hazard (x –=2.00), increased impermeability due to urbanization (x –=2.00), overflowing dams (x –=2.00), building on water ways and drainage channels (x –=2.00), flood plain being occupied by human settlement and economic activities (x –=1.41), blockage of flood path with sediment deposit (x –=1.31) and increase in rainfall (x –=1.30). Rendering of rural dwellers homeless (x –=2.47), fills homes with dirty water and refuse (x –=2.43), blockage of road networks (x –=2.42), disruption of economic activities (x –=2.40), destruction of farmlands (x –=2.40), increase in household food insecurity (x –=2.35), destruction of crops and livestock (x –=2.30), damages stored farm produce (x –=2.24) and loss of lives and property (x –=2.12) were effects of flood disaster on rural households. Based on the findings of the study, there arises the need for government at all levels and non-governmental organizations to intensify efforts in creation of awareness for people living in flood prone areas to relocate to a safer place in order to avoid loss of life and disruption of economic activities.
History of anterior cruciate ligament surgery
Authors: Sciarretta Fabio Valerio
Published: June 2020

The history of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery is a very fascinating tale subject to constant evolution, as a path marked by multiple progresses and various long-lasting intuitions and ideas. Along the centuries improved anatomical, physiological and biomechanical knowledge has led to progressively better understand ACL ruptures and evolves from the initial conservative cast immobilization treatment of the past centuries to surgical repair and reconstruction. These reparative and reconstructive techniques have undergone constant evolutions and developments. From the eighties, the advent of arthroscopy enabled minimizing surgical invasiveness, adopting new, stronger and safer fixation devices and promoting quicker, safer, and more aggressive rehabilitation. Several reasons have led to an increase in the success rate, including rapid diagnosis and early treatment, factors that prevented the occurrence of associated meniscal and cartilaginous injuries which, often can cause complications, worsening of results and development of early osteoarthritis. Actually, conventional reconstructions using autologous hamstring tendons or bone-patellar tendon-bone grafts are the procedures most popular today, along with the use of quadriceps tendon grafts and allografts. Orthopedic surgeons have in the last years shown greater interest on understanding and reproducing more precisely ACL’s femoral and tibial insertions and this has opened up new horizons leading to increased studies toward biological reconstructions with preservation of ACL remnants through partial reconstructions procedures and all biological reparative procedures, including cell culture techniques, tissue engineering, and gene therapy.
Modified PC/ASA/PMMMA blends with improved compatibility, mechanical properties and biocompatible synergistic effects with natural rubber
Authors: Dong Wenfa , Chen Dingfang , Tang Ruogu
Published: June 2020

In this work, ABS-g-MAH was used as the compatibilizer in poly carbonate/acrylonitrile styrene acrylate/poly(methyl methacrylate) blends. The polymer blends were prepared via a two-step method: first, raw PC, ASA, PMMA resins and ABS-g-MAH additives were completely mixed and granulated by extrusion molding, and then the standard PC/ASA/PMMA blends samples were obtained by injection molding. A comprehensive characterizations were performed on the PC/ASA/PMMA blends of their morphologies, mechanical properties and thermal properties. The results showed that the addition of ABS-g-MAH could promote the compatibilities among PC, ASA and PMMA, and ABS-g-MAH would significantly alter the mechanical and thermal properties of blends. In addition, the modified PC/ASA/PMMA was well compatible with natural rubber and cause less cytotoxicity when interacting with cells.
Evolution of Metastable Structures at Bimetallic Surfaces from Microscopy and Machine-Learning Molecular Dynamics

Published: June 2020

Restructuring of interfaces plays a crucial role in materials science and heterogeneous catalysis. Bimetallic systems, in particular, often adopt very different composition and morphology at surfaces compared to the bulk. For the first time, we reveal a detailed atomistic picture of long-timescale restructuring of Pd deposited on Ag, using microscopy, spectroscopy, and novel simulation methods. By developing and performing accelerated machine-learning molecular dynamics followed by an automated analysis method, we discover and characterize previously unidentified surface restructuring mechanisms in an unbiased fashion, including Pd-Ag place exchange and Ag pop-out, as well as step ascent and descent. Remarkably, layer-by-layer dissolution of Pd into Ag is always preceded by an encapsulation of Pd islands by Ag, resulting in a significant migration of Ag out of the surface and a formation of extensive vacancy pits within a period of microseconds. These metastable structures are of vital catalytic importance, as Ag-encapsulated Pd remains much more accessible to reactants than bulk-dissolved Pd. Our approach is broadly applicable to complex multimetallic systems and enables the previously intractable mechanistic investigation of restructuring dynamics at atomic resolution.
Enlighten2: Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Protein-Ligand Systems Made Accessible
Authors: Zinovjev Kirill , Kamp Marc W. van der
Published: June 2020

Motivation: Experimental structural data can allow detailed insight into protein structure and protein-ligand interactions, which is crucial for many areas of bioscience, including drug design and enzyme engineering. Typically, however, little more than a static picture of protein-ligand interactions is obtained, whereas dynamical information is often required for deeper understanding and to assess the effect of mutations. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations can provide such information, but setting up and running these simulations is not straightforward and requires expert knowledge. There is thus a need for a tool that makes protein-ligand simulation easily accessible to non-expert users.Results: We present Enlighten2: efficient simulation protocols for protein-ligand systems alongside a user-friendly plugin to the popular visualization program PyMOL. With Enlighten2, non-expert users can straightforwardly run and visualize MD simulations on protein-ligand models of interest. There is no need to learn new programs and all underlying tools are free and open source.Availability: The Enlighten2 Python package and PyMOL plugin are free to use under the GPL3.0 licence and can be found at https://enlighten2.github.io. We also provide a lightweight Docker image via DockerHub that includes Enlighten2 with all the required utilities.
On the Importance of Catalysis in Photocatalysis: Triggering of Photocatalysis at Well-Defined Anatase TiO2 Crystals Through Facet-Specific Deposition of Oxygen Reduction Cocatalyst
Authors: Adler Christiane , Mitoraj Dariusz , Krivtsov Igor , Beranek Radim
Published: June 2020

Well-defined anatase TiO2 crystals with co-exposed {101} and {001} facets represent a promising platform for fundamental studies in photocatalysis and for the development of novel photocatalytic systems exhibiting higher than usual quantum efficiencies. Herein, we present protocols enabling the photoreductive deposition of Pt nanoparticles onto anatase TiO2 micro-sized (1-3 mm) crystals prepared by hydrothermal growth in fluoride-containing solutions to be carried out either facet-selectively (on {101} facets only) or facet non-selectively (on both {101} and {001} facets). The photocatalytic behavior of resulting photocatalysts is studied using investigations of oxidative photodegradation of a test pollutant (4-chlorophenol, 4-CP), photocurrent measurements, and kinetic analysis of the open-circuit photopotential decay. We demonstrate that the deposition of Pt nanoparticles effectively triggers the photocatalytic degradation of 4-CP at anatase crystals which are otherwise completely inactive. The role of Pt in triggering the photocatalysis is demonstrated to consist chiefly in the catalytic enhancement of the reaction rate of oxygen reduction by photogenerated electrons. Only platinized {101} facets contribute to photocatalysis, whereas the {001} facets, in the literature often referred to as “highly reactive”, are even after platinization completely inactive, most likely due to (1 × 4) surface reconstruction upon the heat treatment necessary to decrease the amount of surface fluorides. Based on our results, we highlight the eminent role of efficient surface catalysis for effective charge separation, and provide specific design rules for further development of photocatalysts with high quantum efficiencies.
A Sticky Bacterium Versus Antiadhesive Surfaces

Published: June 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic caused by a virus has been posing a global threat to humanity and human society. It reminded us of the horror of infectious diseases. Pathogenic bacteria also cause infectious disease, but bacteria are not as much of a threat as viruses because antibiotics are effective against them. This is changing, however, with the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The global expansion of multidrug-resistant bacteria has become a clinical problem, and the threat of bacterial infection would come back in the near future. The overuse of antibiotics amplifies the opportunity for resistant bacteria to emerge and spread. The increased antibiotic use during this COVID-19 pandemic could also increase the threat of resistant bacteria. As an alternative to antibiotics, antibiofouling surfaces have drawn intensive research interest and have been developed. Acinetobacter sp. Tol 5 exhibits high adhesiveness to various surfaces through AtaA, a member of the trimeric autotransporter adhesin (TAA) family. We examined the adhesion of Tol 5 and other bacteria expressing different TAAs to antiadhesive surfaces. The results highlighted Tol 5’s stickiness through AtaA, which enables cells to adhere even to antiadhesive materials including polytetrafluoroethylene with a low surface free energy, a hydrophilic polymer brush exerting steric hindrance, and mica with an ultrasmooth surface. Tol 5 cells also adhered to a zwitterionic 2-methacryloyloxyethyl-phosphorylcholine-polymer-coated surface but were exfoliated by a weak shear stress, suggesting that exchangeable bound water molecules contribute to AtaA’s interaction with materials.
Chiral Amino Alcohols via Catalytic Enantioselective Petasis Borono-Mannich Reactions
Authors: Kavouris John , Kavouris Kathryn , Wambua Victor M. , Demerzhan Roman , Moquist Philip , Vetticatt Mathew , Schaus Scott
Published: June 2020

Chiral amino alcohols are valuable building blocks in the synthesis of drugs, natural products, and chiral ligands used in enantioselective catalysis. The Petasis borono-Mannich reaction is a multicomponent condensation reaction of aldehydes, amines, and boronic acids to afford chiral amines. This report describes a practical, easily scaled, enantioselective Petasis borono-Mannich reaction of glycolaldehyde, with primary or secondary amines, and boronates catalyzed by BINOLderived catalysts to afford chiral 1,2-amino alcohols in high yields and enantioselectivities. The reactions are executed at room temperature in ethanol or trifluorotoluene using commercially available reagents and leverage an inherently attractive feature of the multicomponent reaction; the ability to use amines and boronates that possess a wide range of structural and electronic properties. Computational modeling of the diastereomeric transition states using DFT calculations identified a non-conventional CH…O interaction as a key feature that selectively stabilizes the transition state leading to the major enantiomer. The enantioselective catalytic reaction exemplifies a truly practical multicomponent condensation to afford 1,2-amino alcohols in highly enantioenriched form.

Pterygium can cause deterioration of vision by distortion the corneal smooth surface, and so induce astigmatism usually with the rule type, which is reversible by Pterygium excision surgery. So the aim of this study to evaluate prospectively,  the change in keratometeric readings and corneal refractive status after pterygium excision surgery, a case series study was carried out on117eyes of 117 patients with primary Pterygium. It was carried out over a period of 9 months from 1st, January 2018 to 30th. September 2018, for patients, were admitted to the departments of ophthalmology at Najaf city. All patients underwent preoperative assessment for visual acuity (using Snellen’s chart), anterior segment examination, and posterior segment examination using Slitlamp biomicroscopy with condensing lens, refraction and Keratometry using auto-refractometers. All data collected preoperatively then one month postoperatively. Data analysis and comparison then performed. The findings of this study was that Pterygium is more prevalent in males than females, as it found in (81%) of males and only (19%) in females, and more prevalent in young to middle-aged people between (30-45 years 59%), grade II (45%) are presented. This study also found that keratometric (K1, K2) readings in all grade are significantly reduced postoperatively, where preoperative mean K1 was (43.43D±0.67), that decreased to a postoperative mean of (42.95D±0.6). Astigmatism associated pterygium at all grades also showed significant improvement, where the total mean preoperative astigmatism was (1.04D ± 0.80), that became (0.36 D± 0.20) one month later. This improvement also applied on visual acuity, as most of the patient were had visual acuity between (6/12) to ( 6/18) that represent (50%), (37%) of our sample, which improves to (64%) with visual acuity of (6/6) one-month postoperatively. We conclude that  Pterygium excision, associated with significant improvement in refraction and keratometeric readings. And we suggested for eye protection should be considered, when spend long time work outdoor, like proper polarized and UV filter sunglasses, also if possible, avoid work outdoor during sunny and hot days. Surgical excision of Pterygium in early stages will result in better visual rehabilitation.

Published: June 2020

Honey is a natural food derived from flowers nectar that has many health benefits. This
reason made honey become one of category food product that has a risk to be adulterated
because of economically motivation. This study was conducted for characterization and
authentication of Indonesia wild honey (IWH) collected from seven geographical regions
(Sumatra, Bangka Belitung, Java, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, West Nusa Tenggara, and East
Nusa Tenggara) and harvested during 2016–2018 based on physicochemical parameters,
sugar content, minerals, and antioxidant components. The study showed that the result
differs widely among the type of honey. IWH has a moisture content between 16.52-
33.41%, a pH value between 3.00 to 4.65 and color characteristic ranged from pale yellow
to dark brown. All samples contain the highest amount in potassium, but several minerals
found in the specific region. Evaluation of authenticity from sugar content data set by
principal component analysis (PCA) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) revealed
that the authentic and adulterated honey samples could be differentiated with a 95.5%
accuracy. The honey samples were classified on their botanical and geographical origin
using the antioxidant properties, and results of PCA and LDA demonstrated that the
antioxidant parameters can provide adequate information to allow classification of the
various types of IWH samples collected from different geographical regions with accuracy
80-100% for Bangka Belitung, Sulawesi, Kalimantan, West Nusa Tenggara, East Nusa

Тому навіть на сучасному етапі у працях дослідників побутує така думка, що у міжвоєнний період відносини між двома країнами майже не розвивалися. З огляду на це, автори поставили собі за мету на основі іспанських та радянських періодичних видань того періоду, які були одним з важливих джерел інформації, проаналізувати іспано-британські відносини після Першої світової війни. У ході дослідження було встановлено, що протягом 20-30-х рр. відносини між Іспанією та Великою Британією були більше розвиненими у економічній сфері, але складними та суперечливими у політичному напрямку.

Кібербезпека: сучасні виклики перед Україною
Authors: Khudoliy Anatoliy
Published: June 2020

У статті розглянуто питання інформаційної безпеки України за останні кілька років, заходи здійснені урядом України і спрямовані на поліпшення її стану. Мета статті – висвітлити питання кіберзахисту України в світлі російської агресії проти України. Відсутність ґрунтовного законодавчого забезпечення кібербезпеки в Україні в умовах гібридної війни значно підвищує ризики руйнування національної системи. Проблема погіршується ще й тим фактом, що, сьогодні, в Україні відсутній єдиний центр координації роботи щодо законодавчого та нормативно-правового забезпечення ефективної системи кібербезпеки, яка б базувалась на комплексному реальному аналізі стану в зазначеній сфері, існуючих викликів, наявних і потенційних загроз, інтегрувалась в європейську та глобальну систему кібернетичної безпеки, мала б достатнє фінансове, організаційне, технічне та кадрове забезпечення. Автор розглядає основні документи, пов’язані з кібербезпекою в Україні, їхні сильні та слабкі сторони. Орієнтиром для створення законодавчої концептуальної основи у боротьбі з кіберзагрозами слугують документи прийняті СЄ та НАТО, які мають значно більше досвіду у кібернетичному протистоянні. Долучення України, її цивільних і військових органів до європейських і євроатлантичних ініціатив створює підґрунтя для цілеспрямованого процесу розвитку кібернетичної стратегії на державному та приватному рівнях.

Authors: Muhammad Zia-ur-Rehman  , Maria Zia
Published: June 2020

The study focuses on the issues of organizational performance, particularly related to developing corporate leadership to the level of effectiveness and the extended result as an outcome on organizational performance. We propose a model by plausibly linking the competencies related to emotional intelligence with effectiveness of corporate leadership, eventually fashioning out a high performance organization. In order to develop a framework, it includes conceptions grounded on EI as exogenous variable (ξ), Effective corporate leadership (ECL) as endogenous (η) variable and high performance organisation as outcome variable. The feedback composed was collected from 1171 corporate leaders serving in large business organizations across Pakistan. For analysis purpose, after data cleansing, SEM is employed to obtain results related to model fit and testing of hypotheses. Measurement and Structural Models approve the propositions of the study. After analysis, it is pertinent to mention that findings show great role of the competencies of EI with corporate leadership, and as a trickled down effect on overall organizational performance. The results also show how leadership can be developed to the level of effectiveness and thus can lead to achieve corporate reputation, employee commitment, market performance and financial performance of an organization. It is seen that the influence of EI competencies has not only the impact on the effectiveness of corporate leadership but also on overall organisational performance.
