summary:
  In order to ensure long-term activity, increase competitiveness and attract investments it becomes topical for many companies in Latvia to create a system for evaluating non-financial performance indicators. Despite the great number of theoretical publication on the problems of evaluating company performance, basing on the system of financial and non-financial indicators (Hafeez, 2002; Philips, Louvieris 2005; Craig, Moores, 2005; Lau, Sholihin, 2005; Fernandes et.al., 2006; Prieto, Revila, 2006; Wier et.al., 2007; Chen et.al., 2009; Cardinaels, van Veen- Dirks, 2010) there are problems in practical application of this indicators’ system as there is no single approach to identification, classification, measurement and evaluation of non-financial performance indicators.

  LEADERSHIP VALUES IN TRANSFORMATION OF ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE TO IMPLEMENT COMPETITIVE INTELLIGENCE MANAGEMENT: THE TRUST BUILDING THROUGH ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE

summary:
  These steps are described by Cameron (2004), based on the work of several authors who have described successful change interventions aimed at organizational culture change (e.g., Hooijberg & Petrock, 1993; Denison, 1989; Trice &Beyer, 1993; Cameron & Quinn, 1999; Kotter, 1995). These steps initiate change in individual and organizational processes, conversations, language, symbols, and values, none of which by itself ensures that culture change will occur, but in combination they create a great deal of momentum toward fundamental culture change in organizations (Cameron, 2004).

  PROMOTION OF EMPLOYEES KNOWLEDGE BUILDING VIA FLEXIBLE WORKING TIME: THEORETICAL CONCEPTS AND EVIDENCE FROM LATVIA

summary:
  There are several possibilities for knowledge building via flexible working time, especially in case flexible working time is applied at current stage, until economic slowdown comes to an end: 1) employees who study in higher education institutions may use the reduced working times for devoting themselves more to studies, 2) promotion of knowledge building is supported by state institutions (State Employment Agency) allowing to participate in training courses for professional growth and life-long education of persons working part-time and being subject to unemployment threats for total value of 300 – 500 Ls (approximately 430 – 710 EUR), 3) in case person is interested in personal growth, adjustment of flexible (and especially reduced) working time may promote his own motivation for further knowledge building that may be used after economic development will start. Also flexible working time is an issue recommended to be applied in organisations within the Eu.

A significant decrease in the areas planted for grain crops in North America can be impacted by two major factors: grain overproduction which exceeds the purchasing • power of consumers and grain processors in the world market; radical progress in the science of grain production • in the USA, which promotes a sharp increase in grain yields, creates favourable preconditions for an increase in the output of grains, while at the same time using smaller areas for grain crops.

  One of the main reasons for high prison population rates is the practice of sentencing a significant number of convicts to serve long imprisonment terms for property-related offences; this kind of practice leads to high prison density, often resulting in various human rights violations due to overcrowded detention facilities. The possibility to achieve successful resocialization of former prisoners back into society is an ongoing public debate, making it challenging for policymakers to implement prisoner rehabilitation programs capable of maintaining the public safety while allocating public funds in the most efficient way.

  Critical Review of Sustainability Priorities in the Heritage Sector: Evidence from Latvia’s Most Visited Museums

summary:
  The paper aims to propose the first-ever critical review of sustainable development priorities in Latvia’s most popular museums with a view to finding out their strategic priorities and using these findings to identify to- day’s specific thematic development lines relevant to the museum sector within the sustainable development framework and to apply this bottom-up principle to propose potential ways to improve the general goal of Latvia’s museum accreditation system – that of promoting sustainable museum practices – with specific pointers and thematic building blocks for the broad umbrella concept of sustainable development. It would (1) specify and give additional value to the general goal of Latvia’s museum accreditation system to promote sustainable museum practic- es, (2) raise awareness of the importance of sustainable development in the museum sector in general, especially beyond the priorities of heritage preservation and financial sustainability and (3) promote positive competitiveness among museums committed to sustainable development, serving as a catalyst for broader appraisal of sustainable practices, a driving force for innovation and an incentive for constantly growing cooperation with players from other sectors, such as education, social services, healthcare, ICT, environmental protection and many more for mutual benefit and overall sustainable development.

  This shows that entrepreneurs in Latvia are at different stages of development in the use of e-commerce opportunities, thus training and informing entrepreneurs about the use of e-commerce oppor- tunities is topical, especially in the regions of Latvia (Kurzeme and Latgale). _ At the same time, when analysing the importance of different groups of e-commerce factors depending on how intensively entrepreneurs use e-commerce opportunities, there are signif- icant differences in the assessment of factor groups “Social factors” and “Regulatory factors” between entrepreneurs who make full use of e-commerce opportunities and those who do not use them at all. Kalinic et al. (2016), analysing the factors influencing e-commerce in Serbia, where historically technology and economy developed similarly to Latvia, also emphasizes the influence of the same four main factors on e-commerce development (technological, political, economic and educational factors), the situation was largely similar from both from the point of view of users and enterprises.

Despite the fact that not all research is directly aimed at investigating UA-specific flights, UA equipment, that has been deployed on a flying de- vice, can be valuable for security work.
