Elaheh Rahimi | Learning & Development | Research Excellence Award

Mrs. Elaheh Rahimi | Learning & Development | Research Excellence Award

PhD Student | The University of Canterbury | New Zealand

Mrs. Elaheh Rahimi contributes to early childhood education, philosophy of education, and cultural linguistics by advancing theoretical and methodological understandings of meaning-making in educational contexts. Across 9 peer reviewed documents with 246 citations and an h-index of 5, the work integrates dialogic theory, cultural semiotics, and philosophical inquiry to examine how objects, language, and culture mediate learning and identity. A key contribution is the development of dialogic and Cassirer informed frameworks that reconceptualise infants’ engagement with objects as culturally situated, dynamic, and symbolically rich practices. The research extends beyond early childhood education to address intercultural competence, discourse analysis, and emerging issues such as artificial intelligence and childhood. Published in international journals and disseminated through scholarly conferences, this body of work bridges theory and practice, offering conceptual tools that inform culturally responsive pedagogy, curriculum design, and education policy in diverse and global contexts.

Xu Xinsheng | Strategic HR Management | Research Excellence Award

Prof. Xu Xinsheng | Strategic HR Management | Research Excellence Award

Professor | The University of Shandong University of Aeronautics | China

Prof. Xinsheng Xu is an accomplished scholar whose research sits at the intersection of supply chain management, inventory theory, risk analytics, and quantitative optimization. With 34 academic documents, over 300 citations, and an h-index of 10, his scholarly impact is reflected in both the depth and breadth of his contributions to operations research and management science. His work advances understanding of decision-making under uncertainty, particularly focusing on how risk attitudes such as loss aversion and risk aversion shape procurement and ordering behavior. A significant portion of his research extends classical models such as the newsvendor framework, exploring new dimensions that incorporate backlogging, shortage penalties, fill rate considerations, opportunity loss, and advanced risk measures including Conditional Value-at-Risk. These models offer improved decision-support tools for retailers, suppliers, and logistics managers facing increasingly volatile market environments. Beyond behavioral decision models, his research also encompasses multi sourcing procurement, dual sourcing under emergency conditions, supply option contracts, supplier default risks, and portfolio purchasing strategies. He has developed analytical methods for optimizing procurement in hybrid sourcing systems, considering mismatch costs, spot market dynamics, emergent replenishment strategies, and utility maximizing approaches for risk-sensitive buyers. In parallel, Xinsheng Xu has made influential contributions to optimization theory, including bilevel programming, tri level supply chain models, smoothing techniques for penalty functions, and algorithmic strategies for constrained optimization. These theoretical developments are applied in multi-stage supply chain design, cooperative risk-sharing, and interaction programming problems. His work appears in respected journals such as International Journal of Production Economics, International Journal of Production Research, Annals of Operations Research, Industrial Management & Data Systems, Computers & Industrial Engineering, Mathematics, Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, and Numerical Functional Analysis and Optimization.
