    Competence development is integral to human resource development. However, the lack of attention to competence standards in some countries combined with the need for skilled workers presents significant challenges for industry. The electronics industry in Thailand represents a case in point. A study of competence development in this country was conducted in order to: identify current practices related to competence development; and determine how companies provide competence development for their employees. The study included a survey of electronics industry managers at 60 companies in Bangkok and suburban areas as well as semi structured interviews and observations in five companies. Results revealed that the most commonly stated reason for respondents not working with competence development was that their organisation was not familiar with the concept (86 per cent). Only half the companies surveyed used competence instruments. Most respondents did not recognise the importance of integrating cultural differences. In terms of implications for human resource management in the companies surveyed, competency development will need to become more of a priority as will integration of intercultural competence.

    This study investigates the factors affecting sustainable innovation within Thailand's Provincial Electricity Authority, a nonprofit organization committed to sustainable energy solutions. With a focus on the Sufficiency Economy Philosophy as a developmental framework, the study examines how SEP principles of moderation, prudence, and resilience contribute to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The research adopts a quantitative approach to analyze how SEP influences SI in PEA's operations alongside internal and external factors like disruptive leadership, digital transformation, and national sustainability initiatives. Through a series of correlation and regression analyses, the study identifies SEP as a critical component in fostering SI, with values of virtue, risk management, and informed decision-making emerging as influential elements. The findings indicate that integrating SEP's balanced approach to production and consumption facilitates organizational resilience, enabling the PEA to navigate internal and external shocks effectively. Furthermore, the results underscore the necessity of a holistic framework where internal initiatives align with broader cultural and ecological goals. The study highlights SEP's applicability beyond the energy sector, as seen in sustainable efforts in regions like Krabi and Koh Samui, which exemplify SEP-driven approaches toward low-carbon transitions. By leveraging SEP’s sufficiency principles, organizations can strengthen sustainable practices contributing to Thailand's environmental and social well-being. The research calls for further exploration into SEP’s role across sectors, positing that SEP could be a foundational pillar alongside economic, social, and environmental dimensions to drive sustainable innovation across diverse contexts.

    The study aimed to investigate the impacts of internal and external factors on developing global digital innovation by means of a case study of the Provincial Electricity Authority (PEA) in Thailand. The research framework was based on the concepts of disruptive leadership, Thailand 4.0, Industry 4.0, PEA Digital Utility or Electric Utility of the Future, ICT/Digital Innovation, and Sufficiency Economy Principles (SEP). The research sample group comprised 419 PEA employees randomly selected from throughout the country. The research tools consisted of structured questionnaires on content and technical quality validated by five qualified experts. Assumptions of multiple regression analysis- normality, linearity, no multicollinearity, independence, and homoscedasticity were examined. The data verifying the assumptions were analyzed by multiple regression and PEA Digital Utility, Industry 4.0, ICT/Digital Innovation, Disruptive Leadership, and Thailand 4.0 were estimated for the development of global digital innovation. It was also found that most PEA employees, or 51.55 percent, refer to the innovation they know of as PEA Smart Plus. This is because PEA will focus on the use of communication technology to improve efficiency in the distribution system which is the foundation for further development of other parts of the system. Furthermore, most PEA employees identified innovation as being environmentally friendly.
