This article attempts to explore the intricate nuances of literary names and naming within Saudi literary contexts, with a focus on their implications in shaping narratives and cultural identity.Adopting an interdisciplinary approach that intersects cultural studies, literary analysis, and discourse analysis, it aims to unveil the multifaceted functions of literary onomastics, not only as linguistic signifiers but also as bearers of intense symbolic significance.This study focuses on the works of Badryah Al-Bishr, a controversial feminist figure in Saudi Arabia whose narratives reflect societal norms and challenge gender dynamics.Her novel Gharmiyt Shri Al-Ash [Romances of al-Ash Street] (2013) provides a fertile ground for the analysis of the impact of constructed names in shaping both character development and cultural discourses.By integrating a theoretical framework that accounts for the dynamic interplay between culture, and narrativization, this paper seeks to disentangle the layers of symbolism embedded within Al-Bishr's narrative onomastics.These names, far from being arbitrary markers, serve as vehicles to convey deeper socio-cultural insights about gender roles and cultural identity within Saudi society.

In recent years, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has worked to exploit women's skills and creative abilities to activate their participation in senior administrative positions, especially university positions, in line with the Kingdom's Vision 2030. Therefore, this study seeks to know the degree of application of organizational factors and administrative empowerment and the relationship among female leaders at Umm Al-Qura University in light of sustainable development. The researcher used the comprehensive social survey method for female administrative and academic leaders at Umm Al-Qura University, numbering 150. The study concluded that female leaders within the university enjoy a high degree through their application of the organizational factors included in the study, their commitment to the university's regulations and instructions, and their ability to communicate and work as a team. The study also found that administrative empowerment and delegation of authority to women at the university showed high results through women‘s good management, teamwork, strong relationships with their employees, and sound management. This study revealed the impact of women leaders and their role in sustainable development in their work environment. The researcher recommended exploring the procedures and laws that hinder organizational factors and administrative empowerment of women leaders in Saudi universities. It is also recommended to adopt institutional frameworks that directly address structural obstacles and to implement best practices for gender-inclusive leadership. Also, highlighting them will help present them to decision-makers and consider them.

Branches in Abakaliki, Nigeria was conducted on the United Bank for Africa Plc branches in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State.The objectives of the study were to ascertain the degree of relationship that exists between occupational stress (role boundary, distorted responsibility and physical environment) and job performance of female bankers in United Bank for AfricaPlc branches. To achieve these objectives, a descriptive survey was carried out, and data were collected using structured questionnaire in Likert scale format. Analyses of data were done using descriptive statistics, while hypotheses of the study were tested using Pearson correlation coefficient. Findings were that all three dimensions of occupational stress studied have high degree of relationship with female bankers" performance. Occupational stress indicators of role boundary, distorted responsibility and physical environment were further found to significantly affect the performance of female bankers in different ways depending on their marital status and their specific assigned duties. Recommendations are that peculiar working environment ought to be created for female bank workers especially the lactating mothers; adequate job redesign and improved physical environment of the bank branches would also improve the performance of female bank workers at branch level. The implication of the study is that some bank branch environmental settings may be unfavourable to female bank workers and could reduce their effectiveness.
