This research conducted in Salman mosque, located on jalan STM no 12, Sitirejo II, Medan Amplas sub-district. The data sources obtained from the interview with the administrator, in this case, BKM (Mosque Welfare Agency) of Salman Mosque, secretary and treasurer of the mosque. Regarding the fund management system, the funds of the mosque are deposited in Bank Syariah Mandiri on behalf of the Salman Mosque, that under the responsibility of the chief and treasurer of BKM of Salman Mosque. The organization structure of the mosque is good enough, which already has AD/ART (basic budget/household budget) and complete organization structure that are appropriate with other mosques in general. For the SWOT analysis, the strengths are the location of the mosque which is located on STM busy main road so that many congregants who are travelers or who are from around Medan city come to pray at the mosque, there are young mosque activists who are adept on technology, and mosque facilities and infrastructures that are adequate. The weaknesses are the lack of mosque development, the absence of mosque publication on social media and the lack of active participation of the elected mosque administrators. The mosque has opportunities to obtain a great source of funding because of a large number of congregants visit the mosque. The thing that can be said as a threat is because many street vendors in front of the mosque gate make the outside area of mosque gate filled with garbage from street vendors who are trading in front of the gate. So far there have been no programs that lead to empowering the ummah or congregations around the mosque. From the result of FGD (Focus Grup Discussion), the mosque financial management model was programmed based on ummah empowerment by establishing a Mosque-Owned Enterprises such as opening a mart or shop that provides daily needs of the ummah with a congregational business model where interested congregants are encouraged to have shares in the mart like the concept of cooperation, with the result that the profit will come back to the mosque congregants. Thus, the business model becomes a fair and transparent business to all members by their contribution. For the long-term investment, the mosque can also build multipurpose buildings, which can be rented for various events, such as social gatherings or weddings; the mosque can also provide catering packages and chairs to complement the facilities.

Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organization is tasked with facilitating improved production technology and establishing adequate feedback systems from agricultural producers. However, the agricultural research services and outputs f rom the institution are not adequately availed and adopted by the target clients for sustainable development through agriculture. This led to the assessment of effect of stakeholder linkages on organizational performance of Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organization. The objectives of the study included; to find out the effect of normative linkages, diffused linkages, enabling linkages and functional linkages on organizational performance of Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organization. It was further guided by theories; stakeholder theory and marketing myopia theory. Descriptive survey design was applied to gather adequate and detailed information for the research study. The target population was the research scientists of institutes of Kenya Agricul tural and Livestock Research organizations. Questionnaires were used to collect data that was analysed by descriptive and inferential statistics with aid of Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS). Study findings were presented in tables. Both descriptive and inferential findings revealed that stakeholder linkages had an effect on organizational performance. Regression analysis showed that the correlation of each independent variable and dependent variable was strong and positive. It implied that there was a relationship between normative, diffused, functional and enabling linkages taken together and organizational performance of KALRO was strong, positive and statistically significant. Therefore, the interactions of KALRO with stakeholders affected their organizational performance. Based on the coefficient of determination findings, variation or changes in organizational performance was well explained by the changes in the changes from the stakeholder linkages. The overall significance of the model showed that it fitted the data and all independent variables affected the dependent variable. The ratio of departure of estimated values of the study parameters from the hypothesized values to the standard errors showed that the stakeholder linkages affected organizational performance since their association was significant. The study findings will benefit Kenya Agricultural and Livestock Research Organization, the government through ministry of agriculture, farmers and other researchers. Findings contain important information that can guide marketing of KALRO products thereby improving their uptake and help in revenue generation to fill the existing gap between budget and revenue which indicates the extent of organization performance.

Construction companies are often faced with various constraints like funding, technology, materials and more as they plan, organize, schedule and execute various projects. Most constraints of any kind tend to hinder project progress. Many projects in both public and private stall at different stages before completion, this has been attributed to project constraints. Thus, the study sought to establish the influence of management of project constraints on completion of building construction projects in Nakuru County, Kenya. The study specifically sought to determine the influence of management of scope and resource on completion of building construction projects in Nakuru County. The study used a descriptive survey research design. The target population was registered building constructions in Nakuru. The researcher used one respondent in each of the company therefore the total target population was 546 respondents. The study used Nassiuma‟s formulae to get a sample of 85 building construction companies. Questionnaires were used to collect the primary data desirable for the study.
