    This study is concerned with the analysis of factors that affect the AEC garment industry and Thailand's ability to compete within it. Given the 2035 projected 850 million AEC consumer market along with the tripling of economic output by 2025, the ramifications of policy are enormous for both Thailand and the garment industry's competitiveness. Therefore, this study was undertaken to conduct analysis and structural equation modeling of the variables from membership input from the Thai Garment Manufacturers Association (TGMA). The importance of this study can't be underestimated, as Thai garment exports in 2012 declined to US$2.8 billion while textile exports dropped to US$3.5 billion, 10 and 15% drops, respectively. Study results however found that to maintain competitiveness, larger industry members are expanding their operations by relocating their production to lower wage members of the AEC such as the CLMV countries of Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Vietnam while smaller Thai garment industry SMEs have already ceased trading. Although, the trend is negative for Thailand's garment enterprises, factors studied which can influence change and growth include leadership, investment, teamwork and R and D. Given greater understanding of these variables, Thailand can challenge global players and create brands that overcome what otherwise appears to be a continued contraction and loss of competitive advantage. Using decades of industry knowledge, researchers obtained quantitative data from 178 entrepreneurial TGMA members while qualitative data was gathered from in-depth interviews of 10 senior industry executives.

    This study is concerned with the modeling and analysis of variables for the organizational performance in the Thai auto parts industry. Auto parts manufacturing and supply has a direct relationship with many other sectors; including leather, plastic, rubber, steel and petrochemicals. It also influences electrical output and consumption as well as electronics production. Body related finishing materials such as glass and paint/surface treatment processes and materials are also considerations. With so many components involved in domestic vehicle production, one can easily see why auto production and its related industries are so crucial to Thai economic might. Research methodologies used within this study include both quantitative and qualitative research. Quantitative is further qualified in this research essay from the survey given to 320 executives in the Thai automotive industry. The Bartial Least Square (BLS) technique, a form of structural equation modeling, is additionally used due to it being component-based rather than covariance based. Additionally, qualitative research is supported by input from questionnaires from 10 key Thai auto industry executives utilizing the purposive sampling approach. Thai auto parts organizational performance has been influenced by leadership factors, management skills and management innovation. These three variables and their quantitative and qualitative research resulted in the hypothesis of a significance level of p<0.01, respectively. The qualitative research results agreed with the corresponding quantitative research results. Research findings from this study suggest that the Thai auto parts industry must develop innovative leadership management to sustain competitive capability. © 2014 Academic Journals Inc.

    This study is concerned with the modeling and analysis of variables for the organizational performance in the Thai auto parts industry. Using purposive sampling research methodologies, this study includes both quantitative and qualitative research. Quantitative is further qualified in this research essay from the survey given to 320 executives in the Thai automotive industry. The responses to the question constructs were captured by the use of a 5 point Likert scale. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). It was found that Thai auto parts organizational performance has been influenced by leadership factors, managerial skills and management innovation. These 3 variables and their quantitative and qualitative research resulted in the hypothesis of a significance level of p≤0.01 respectively. Research findings from this study suggest that the Thai auto parts industry must develop innovative leadership management techniques which are crucial in sustaining competitive capability.

    This research study is concerned with the analysis of the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration's (BMA) district offices using the Linear Structural Model (LEM) to determine the variables that affect public sector organizational performance. Three hundred and forty quantitative samples were drawn from all 50 of Bangkok's BMA districts using simple random sampling (purposive sampling) while using Partial Least Square (PLS-Graph) software to apply Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis.The research found that there are three factors determining BMA's strategy. They are public sector marketing factors, transformational leadership and organizational strategy. The first element, public sector marketing factors has a direct and positive influence on BMA's performance. The second, transformational leadership has been shown to have a positive although, indirect effect through variables in their organizational strategy. It was also discovered that organizational strategy able to keep pace with the flow of change and how to run a modern government efficiently and flexibly were crucial factors as well. These were important in achieving the goals of satisfying the constituency and optimizing public sector resources. © 2014 Academic Journals Inc.
