Identification of the traits required for a particular job may be such a matter over which there might be a difference of opinion among the people at the helm of affairs, be they academicians, researchers or working executives specially when it comes to fix up the relative importance i.e., which human trait/attribute/attitude, in what degree is more and which is less required to perform a particular job. The identification of the requisite traits and qualities in a particular employee may also be a cumbersome and delicate job as this may require the selection of the right method of performance appraisal or for that matter a mechanism with the help of which the needed traits are to be identified. A possibility of a difference in opinion cannot also be ruled out in this case and therefore unless an appropriate mechanism is identified for the purpose there may remain a possibility of wrong or incomplete evaluation of the qualities of an employee.
It is in view of the above stated that it was decided to probe into this matter i.e., the relative worth of various human traits and characteristics. Since every industry requires a different set of human traits and characteristics in its manpower, of course differing cadre-wise, the problem was decided to be probed with reference to just one industry i.e., Tea Industry of India keeping in mind the poor availability of the previous research done on this aspect of manpower management of this industry. As the dependence for the data collection had to be made on certain firm/unit/firms spread over some area, the tea producing units of south Assam were selected.

Sports goods, we all know, do not fall under the category of necessary items for a large population, especially in a society which is a part of developing economy. Sellers of the commodities like sports goods, in the countries like India, are to manage on many fronts when it comes to increase the sale profitably. On the one hand they have to understand the changing needs and requirements of the existing customers of sports goods while partly they need to undertake all such measures which, if possible, can help in turning the non-customers into customers. In other words they have not only to concentrate to offer the brands of choice to the customers of sports goods on the conditions they want but also, through show casing, for example, lure the ones who till the other day were not interested in engaging themselves in sports activities. Promoting a brand, we know, is not that much a difficult task as promoting a product and that too for such items which are not considered necessary by a large section of the people in the society, specially the one which is in the stage of only a developing economy. Thus being able to sell such items which are not much in demand, as pointed out above, will certainly require a seller to be extra skillful. This paper dwells on the isses as mentioned above and covers factors and their relative importance in the area of sports marketing in emerging sports centres of India.Keywords

The linkage between human intelligence and its determinants is a subject of keen interest among the researchers around the world. It is evident from the existing literature that human intelligence is a matter of pre-natal development and its enhancement is a postnatal development. Considering the agencies which form part of the post-natal environment, educational institutions are one. The study considered determinants of human intelligence acknowledging the previous works on the theme of intelligence. It tried to gauge the relative worth of the determinants on improving the human intelligence which is influenced by syllabus in the higher education. Teachers presently serving in Assam University with experience of decades of teaching in one and/or more universities, teaching different subjects were considered for the survey. It was found that enhancing subject knowledge, learning abilities and retaining information were such determinants which were well taken care of by the syllabus whereas determinants like developing motivation, balancing optimism & pessimism, developing a futuristic approach and developing capacity for complex cognitive process need enhancement through syllabus.Keywords
