Abstract

This study sought to examine the challenges facing the African economy and financial inclusion. The paper undertakes a comprehensive exploration of the African economic landscape, navigating through historical intricacies, structural challenges, and global influences. Grounded in a quantitative methodology, the study adopted the survey method to systematically unravel the multifaceted dimensions of the economic crisis and financial inclusion in Africa. The study was anchored on both Monetarist and Keynesian models. A sample size of 350 participants was studied, using a purposive sampling technique. The study discovered that cultural, technological, and regulatory limits all significantly contribute to the economic crisis, which is evidenced by the high rate of currency devaluation in Africa, high rates of inflation in the price of goods, and economic downturns. Thus, the paper recommends that fin-tech companies, appropriate technology applications, and advancements in online payments could potentially save this predicament. The paper further recommends that the government should enact regulatory changes that lower entrance barriers for financial institutions, support innovation, and safeguard consumers to advance financial inclusion.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the predictability of employee work attitude on the effectiveness of hospitality firms operating in Nigeria's work setting. Middle-line managers, supervisors, and low-level employees constitute the sample frame. To avoid bias in selection, simple random was used. Copies of the primary instrument were used to collect data. Frequency distribution was used to analyze respondents’ data while the research propositions were analyzed with linear regression with the aid of IBM SPSS statistical software version 25. The finding of the study showed that employee work attitude has a positive significant effect on organizational effectiveness. The study concluded that employee work attitude measured in terms of job satisfaction and job involvement enhances and improves the organizational effectiveness of hospitality firms in Nigeria through prompt service delivery and customer satisfaction. The implication of the study is that; supervisors, operations managers, and HR managers should pay positive attention to the attitude of their employees to discourage employee turnover that could lead to customer withdrawal.
