Agile project management is an ongoing method to project completion that actually took place all across length of the project's life cycle. Because loop allows you to adapt as you go rather than maintaining a linear route, iterative methods are mainly applied in software development to ensure velocity and agility. Many pitfalls abound in agile software development adaptations that organizations fail to sidestep. New competitive challenges, fluctuating market dynamics, technological disruption, and the ever-changing demands of empowered customers confront organizations around the world. Organizations are all under tremendous pressure to adapt to change and deliver good products and services to customers more swiftly. Research measured at the challenges that could be encountered and offered advice for how agile development might flourish as it becomes a component of a company's family. Our paper gives a comprehensive review of the most significant obstacles that companies encounter while adopting agile techniques. Adaptability. The agile approach encompasses a variety of techniques, which each have different usage in various sectors. Because certain other standards existing today clash with agile methodology, the adaptation of any of the agile techniques in work environments posed a problem. In this paper, we will cover some of the challenges that firms face in adopting the agile software development life cycle.

Ginseng Is renowned for both its medicinal and herbal uses and successful cultivation of Panax ginseng in Asia and Panax quinquefolium in North America has until recently taken place in the native geographical ranges of the plants. As a consequence of the potential high capital return and anticipated increases in consumer consumption, commercial cultivation of American ginseng now occurs well outside the native range of the plant in North America. In fact, the region of greatest expansion of cultivation is in the semi-arid interior region of British Columbia, Canada. Linked with this expansion is the potential domination of the ginseng industry by agricultural corporations. In the interior of British Columbia, the native deciduous forest environment of eastern North America is simulated with elevated polypropylene shade and a surface covering of straw mulch. The architecture of these environments is designed to permit maximum machinery usage and to minimize labor requirements. Further, with only a four- years growth cycle, plant densities in the gardens are high. In this hot, semi-arid environment, producers believe they have a competitive advantage over other regions in North America because of the low precipitation rates. This helps to minimize atmospheric humidity such that the conditions for fungal disease development are reduced. If soil moisture level become limited, supplemental water can be provided by irrigation. The nature of the radiation and energy balance regimes of the shade and many environments promotes high soil moisture levels. Also, the modified environment redlines soil heating. This can result in an aerial environment for the plant that is stressful and a rooting zone environment that is suloptimal. The challenge of further refining the man modified environment for enhanced plant growth and health still remains. Keywords Panax ginseng, Panax quinquefolium, cultivation, ginseng production.

Shipping companies involved in sea transportation service are exposed to uncertainty due to its volatile business environment. It is crucial that shipping companies take effective strategies to cope with uncertain business environments and to achieve high business performance. Using Porter's generic strategy, this study investigates the relationships between environmental uncertainty and competitive strategies, and the impact of competitive strategies on firm's business performance. To test hypotheses, OLS regressions and Tobit analysis were conducted on Korea shipping companies who provide global sea transportation service. The findings of this study can be summarized as follows. First, variation of environmental uncertainty affects cost-leadership strategy and differentiation strategy. Diversity of environmental uncertainty affects differentiation strategy, but not cost-leadership strategy. Second, firms attain business performance by using the cost-leadership strategy. That is, shipping companies can achieve high business performance by reducing their operating costs in the entire process of transportation service.

The study aims to identify the complex effects of information security (IS) environments and individuals' IS-related perceptions and value dissimilarity that negatively affect insiders' IS compliance activities. In detail, the study aimed to confirm the roles of prospective and inhibitory anxiety, and value dissimilarity in the process in which a competitive psychological climate negatively affects IS compliance intentions. The study obtained 387 samples from the firm's workers with IS-related regulations and verified the research hypotheses established using the AMOS 22.0 and Process 3.1 tools. As a result, the competitive psychological climate negatively affected IS compliance intention by increasing individual's IS-related prospective and inhibitory anxiety. In addition, IS-related value dissimilarity had an interactive effect with prospective and inhibitory anxiety and had a negative effect on IS compliance intention. This study has practical implications in terms of presenting information and values to be provided to employees to achieve internal IS goals and has academic implications in terms of applying the complex effects of IS-related anxiety and value dissimilarity.

We have recently witnessed many of global companies did not successfully adapt themselves to local markets, and finally exited the markets experiencing failures. The purpose of this study is to suggest practical glocalization strategies for global e-service companies to run their respective businesses in local markets with success. Glocalization is a terminology blending globalization and localization, meaning that global companies adapt themselves to local cultures, environment, languages, laws and regulations so as to survive and prosper in those markets while maintaining high quality of standards and processes they originally have for global competitive edge. Examining success stories as well as failure ones of global e-service companies having entered Asian markets, we provide marketing mix strategy for successful glocalization, and suggest some guidelines for prospective e-service companies wishing to enter local markets with different cultures and languages to fit themselves to new environments.

With the change of various business environments, needs for the third party logistics(3PL) service are strategically considered for securing core competitiveness of manufacturers in China. Thus, manufacturers not only have worked with 3PL service providers for cutting costs of logistics, but also they are willing to have Win-Win relationship with the 3PL service provider. In this paper, comparing situation and characteristics of both China and developed-countries, especially in the particularity of manufacturing companies in China. The most important thing is that 3PL service providers must be able to manage supply chain of manufacturers with logistic planning abilities and to operate logistics services with logistic infrastructures and IT systems. In the view of long-term development, incubating logistics specialists is also the influencing fact that makes 3PL service providers more competitive with high quality logistics service and infrastructures.
