Abstract

Objective: Digital micro-entrepreneurship in the tourism and hospitality industry is a novel phenomenon driven by accommodation sharing platforms like Airbnb. The purpose of the study is to explore the attributes, motivations, perceptions, benefits, and challenges faced by entrepreneurs in the peer-to-peer accommodation sector driven by the Airbnb Platform. Research Design & Methods: This study used a qualitative research design that followed inductive content analysis assisted by thematic analysis of semi-structured interviews with twelve micro-entrepreneurs who provide peer-to-peer accommodations in Sri Lanka. Findings: Peer-to-Peer accommodation entrepreneurs were motivated mainly by the curiosity to try Airbnb, followed by monetary and social gains. Amidst several challenges, such as the uncleanliness of some guests and violation of house rules, peer-to-peer micro-entrepreneurs enjoy their role as hosts and are satisfied with the overall hosting experience. Implications & Recommendations: The study provided peer-to-peer accommodation hosts a sense of empowerment and an opportunity to make their voice heard, which is crucial in developing an impartial public debate to develop the right policies for the peer-to-peer accommodation sector in Sri Lanka. Contribution & Value Added: The study contributes to the existing body of knowledge on entrepreneurship in the informal sector by viewing Airbnb hosts as informal microentrepreneurs with distinct attributes, motives, perceptions, benefits and challenges while providing valuable insights for various stakeholders in the industry.

Abstract

Objective: This study examined how large businesses negatively impact small business survival and growth in South Africa. It aims to expose harmful practices by large firms that cause small businesses to fail. Thus it seeks to challenge a commonly held assertion that larger firms are predisposed to support smaller firms to achieve growth and survival objectives. Research Design & Methods: A theoretical literature review methodology was used to conduct this study. Findings: The findings indicate that many of the threats from South African large firms targeted at small, micro and medium enterprises (SMMEs) emanate from the advantage of their size, market dominance, and close links the corporate business sector enjoys with the government. Implications & Recommendations: The study argues that larger firms in South Africa are as much of a catalyst for the demise of SMMEs as they can also be beneficial. Therefore it recommends an effective administration of the Competitions Act laws to protect SMMEs and develop new policies that seek to build SMMEs in their capacity and not as a complementary sector to big companies. Contribution & Value Added: The study contributes to the overall discourse about the role of the large business community in supporting the SMME sector in the country. It thus adds value towards broadening an understanding of the threats to small business survival in South Africa and finding solutions of how they can be supported to become viable.

Abstract

Objective: This study used the Behavioural theory of entrepreneurship as the theoretical foundation, and correlation research design to examine the impact of the entrepreneurial management practices (strategic orientation, resource orientation, management structure, reward philosophy, growth orientation, and entrepreneurial culture) on business performance in Ghana. Research Design & Methods: 500 businesses in the Greater Accra Region were selected for the data analysis. Descriptive statistics and hierarchical multiple regression were used to analyse the data. Findings: After controlling the business profile, the result showed that four out of the six entrepreneurial management practices – resource orientation, strategic orientation, reward philosophy, and entrepreneurial culture significantly predicted business performance. However, growth orientation and management structure did not. Implications & Recommendations: The study concludes that entrepreneurial management practices improve business performance in Ghana. The researcher recommends that approaching the study with a mixed-method will help provide a holistic understanding of the management decision-making of the entrepreneurs and its impact on their business performance. Contribution & Value Added: This study contributes to the entrepreneurial management literature in Ghana.

Abstract

Objective: Job switching intentions and high turnover rates among academics in Nigerian Universities including Southern Nigeria are appalling. The study examined the role of job satisfaction on job commitment and value creation. Research Design & Methods: Five research questions guided the study and two hypotheses were formulated. The study adopted the descriptive survey research design. 150 respondents were selected using a convenient sampling technique. A 46-item structured questionnaire was used as an instrument for data gathering which was rated on four point scale with nominal values. The instrument was scrutinized and found valid. The data gathered was analyzed using mean and standard deviation to address the research questions and determined the respondents’ homogeneity respectively while the null hypotheses were tested with t-test inferential statistics. Findings: The findings revealed that job satisfaction has a great influence on job commitment and value creation. Emphasis was laid on job characteristics such as autonomy, social and environmental factors such as recognition, and appropriate rewards of academics with exceptional skills for value creation as well as motivation by management. Implications & Recommendations: Ingenious academics that are highly talented and gifted should complement affective commitment with continuance commitment and demonstrate their creative prowess and ingenuity to create values for the organization. Also, management should ensure that academics with exceptional work skills are properly rewarded, recognized, and motivated to guarantee their retention, absolute commitment, and effective work performance. Contribution & Value Added: These results provide an overview of the challenges of job satisfaction and poor motivation that could affect their value creation.

Abstract

Objective: This study aims to analyze the adoption of mobile business applications by culinary SMEs in Indonesia using the extended TAM (technology acceptance model). The extended TAM used in this study uses additional variables such as subjective norms, self-efficacy, and facilitating conditions, which the previous study used these variables in the context of technology adoption. Research Design & Methods: The sample used was 424 respondents of culinary SMEs in Indonesia. Data collection was found using an online questionnaire, meanwhile, for data processing using the PLS-SEM method. Findings: The results show that culinary SMEs will use a mobile business application if the application is useful and easy to use. In addition, they also need to be encouraged by social environmental factors (subjective norms), self-confidence to use the application (self-efficacy), and supporting facilities conditions. Implications & Recommendations: Theoretically, this research uses extended TAM which has been used previously but in a different context, namely the adoption of mobile business applications. Practically, this research will provide insight for application development companies to create mobile business applications that can be well adopted by culinary SMEs. Contribution & Value Added: This study is the first to empirically employ the TAM, subjective norms, self-confidence, self-efficacy, and facilitating conditions in analyzing the adoption of mobile business applications by culinary SMEs.
