Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to determine the correlation between work-life balance and employee commitment in plastic manufacturing firms in Anambra State, Nigeria. Research Methodology: A descriptive survey design was employed, the questionnaire was used to elucidate information from respondents while regression analysis was used to test the stated hypotheses and determine the relationships between the variables in the study. Results:–life balance-continuance commitment had a positive but minor impact on employees' commitment, normative commitment had a substantial negative influence on employees' commitment, and affective commitment had a strong positive relationship with employees' dedication. Limitations: This study was limited to plastic manufacturing firms in Anambra State, Nigeria. It is expected that the financial and health sectors, which are known to have stiff working conditions, should be researched to support or contradict this current finding. Contribution: This study is expected to serve as a working tool for SME operators, manufacturing firms, policymakers, and the government, as offering a healthy work-life balance can be a significant factor in attracting top talent.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed at investigating the effect of managerial competencies on the growth of SMEs in Abuja Metropolis, Nigeria. Research methodology: The study adopted Raosoft to determine a sample size of 395. A structured questionnaire was used for data collection, while regression was used for data analysis. Results: It was found that both technical and personal competencies have a positive and strong effect on the growth of SMEs, while conceptual skills recorded a negative and insignificant effect on the growth of SMEs in the Abuja Metropolis. Limitations: This study is limited to SMEs operators in Abuja Metropolis (the political capital of Nigeria), Leaving Lagos (the economic capital of Nigeria untouched). It is only when Lagos is covered that one can give a clear direction if Nigerian SMEs operators are changing with the changing business world. Contribution: Operators, owners as well as policymakers in SMEs are expected to benefit from this study as it will serve as an eye-opener to the hidden and untapped potentials embedded in the proper application of managerial skills.

Abstract

Purpose: This study is aimed at determining the effect of strategic outsourcing and corporate performance of quoted insurance firms in Nigeria Research methodology: The study adopted a survey research design because it is suitable and ideal for assessing how effective outsourcing strategy affects the corporate performance of insurance firms in Nigeria. With a population of 720 staff from three quoted insurance firms in Nigeria, using Yamane's formula, a sample of 260 respondents was selected. Multiple regression was used to test the hypotheses that were developed at a significance level of 0.05 percent. Results: The study unveiled that outsourcing has evolved into a helpful strategy and weapon for corporate organizations, particularly for Nigerian insurance companies that are constantly looking to improve their corporate performance in the financial sector. Limitations: This study is limited to quoted insurance firms in Nigeria as of December 2021; hence, the result may not be universal to other excluded categories.  It is expected that further studies should cover all the insurance firms in Nigeria with variables like comprehensive and ICT outsourcing strategies on the operational efficiency and profitability of insurance firms in Nigeria. Contributions: To leverage the services of other organizations and professionals outside of their core competencies for operational effectiveness and efficiency, corporate organizations in Nigeria, especially those in the financial sector, should incorporate strategic outsourcing into their corporate culture.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examined the effect of microfinance services on the growth of Women's entrepreneurial businesses in North-central Nigeria. Research methodology: A survey research design with a population of 7061 women entrepreneurs in North-central, Nigeria and a sample size of 379 was used in the study. The effect between the variables was determined through correlation and multiple regression analysis. Results: The findings revealed that microfinance lending; saving and training services have positive and weighty effects on the growth of women entrepreneurial businesses in Nigeria’s North-central while microfinance management consultancy services recorded an inverse and insignificant impact on the women entrepreneurial businesses' growth in the zone. Limitations: This study is limited to only entrepreneurial women in Nigeria’s North-central with lending services, training services, saving services, and consultancy services as proxies for MFIs services; there are other services provided by MFIs like insurance that are not covered by this study. Contribution: This study incorporated management consultancy services as one of the variables which have hitherto been neglected or ignored in the models that are to explain the microfinance services in Nigeria.
