Failure Definitions and Financial Distress Prediction Models
The concept of business failure has been under discussion in the academic and business world due to the economic and social relevance of the topic. The mere threat of a business going bankrupt affects the entire chain of business relationships. Therefore, predicting the bankruptcy of a business in advance is extremely important for investors, credit banks, suppliers, the state, employees, and other stakeholders of the organization. In this context, academics and professionals have sought to develop models for predicting business failure. The literature on this topic has evolved since the seminal works of Beaver (1967) and Altman, mainly based on the use of mathematics and statistics. However, with the emergence of artificial intelligence, the topic of predicting business failure has resurfaced with additional enthusiasm. This presentation addresses the evolution of business failure prediction models.

In addition, the ability of the Ministry to emphasise the effect of emotional communication in a conducive learning environment will go a long way in improving and enhancing sustainable employee work fulfilment.

Total Quality Management/Service Excellence in Container Shipping Industry
Service quality (SQ) is an important factor in sustaining relationships with your clients in the container shipping industry. Clients who request containership services have transportation needs that prioritize punctuality, reliability, connectivity, and other criteria over low freight rates. To put it another way, clients that utilize container shipping are more concerned about SQ; thus, total quality management (TQM) practices must be implemented to ensure high SQ levels that meet customer expectations. To do so, shipping firms must coordinate six TQM practices: managerial leadership, employee involvement, customer focus, process management, training, and supplier quality management in order to improve five SQ dimensions: tangibility, reliability, empathy, assurance, and responsiveness. This will help them perform better financially.
