Abstract: In a knowledge-based economy, the success of organizations depends mostly on the quality of their human resource. Organizations rely on their competent employees as a main resource. The performance of organizations depends not only on the workforce competency, but also on their evaluation and development on an ongoing basis to meet the global competition. For obvious economic and business reasons, organizations have always been concerned about the competence of its people.

Abstract: It is focused on internal trading and service activities that contribute little to the economic growth of the society that has been impressive. Rather it simply is supported by the growth that can be attributed primarily to oil revenues. Women have traditionally been a part of the Emirati entrepreneurial scene, but in the form of home based micro-enterprise. This small scale literature review determines the contribution that can be made by entrepreneurs and especially women entrepreneurs to the overall society.

Abstract: The study concludes that both personality traits and JDI are ingredients of job satisfaction. These have implication for human resource manager in performing his/her tradition Human resource functions. We believe that personality traits must be considered in recruitment and selection procedures. Getting right person for the right job can be ensured by taking in to account the person's personality. Further for retention we propose that JDI can give help to human resource manager in retaining work force. By making job challenging and exciting, ensuring justice in pay and promotion and by establishing mentoring programs, we believe that an employee will be retained in organization.
