When the price of food increases uncontrollably, and some variables like transport fare, fuel prices, insecurity rises, this will affect almost everything else such as house rent, school fees, consumption, mentioning just but a few. The study adopts a survey research design approach to examine the effect of rise in food prices on the Nigerian economy. The population of the study is made up of Civil Servants (CS), food vendors (FV), other consumers (OC), and private sectors’ workers (PS) concerned with concerned with food consumptions. A sample size of 248 persons was selected at random, and was divided into 36 civil servants, 118 food vendors, 59 other consumers, and 35 private sector workers. The paper adopted questionnaire design with 5-likert scale response, structured in line with the questions and hypotheses. The paper further uses the Pearson correlation coefficient to test the hypotheses. The showed that the recent rise in food prices has a negative significant impact on the economic growth in Nigeria, and that there is no improvement on Nigerian economy because the rise in food prices has a significant effect on the purchasing power, and finally the finding showed that there is a significant relationship between rise in food prices in Nigeria and food security. The study recommends that government should expand social protection programs for the poor household in both rural and urban, and also increase their medium-term and long-term investments in agricultural research and extension, rural infrastructure, and market access for small farmers.

Challenges in measuring digital competence among the higher education students from different disciplines and universities in Ho Chi Minh city is confronted in this study. The results confirm that the scales proposed and applied in foreign studies can also be able to apply in the context of Vietnam. The first effort was paid to measure digital competence using a quantitative method among Vietnamese students in 2021 with the emerging of E-learning alternative which is clearly triggered by the Covid 19 pandemic. The significant components that construct the digital competence levels of observed students include the skills in understanding and using information, the skills in using technology and computers, the skills in communicating via E-learning channel, and the skills in effectively using images. All the above skills are presented in the activities within the higher education context. The results provide some insights into the differences in digital literacy between the groups of students whose English levels are different as well as the students who attained different study performance. The better literacy the higher GPA that students obtain. By providing empirical evidence to policy implications, contribute to the sake of technology development benefiting study performance and working competencies of the graduates in the digital era.

This paper serves as a wake-up call for business leaders in China’s newly established Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area to review their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) for them to survive and succeed in a volatile environment. The survey used in the study was intended to examine the impact of such factors as leadership traits and personal dispositions including the cultural heritage of Confucianism in business settings. In addition, it was devised to find out whether foreign language skills matter in this regard. Subsequently, companies and institutions are called upon to establish a mechanism to cultivate a talent pool and identify potential leaders in this area.

Entrepreneurial leadership has been tipped as one of the millennium solutions to challenges associated with the current competitive and dynamic global business environment. Majority of businesses operating in the localities of Akwa Ibom State in Nigeria including Ikot Ekpene and Uyo, the state capital are on small and medium scale. For decades now, Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SMEs) are considered as an important aspect of Nigeria’s economy and this makes it quite necessary to investigate the extent to which entrepreneurial leadership behaviour may lead to managerial sustainability. Considering this fact, this study seeks to examine the effect of entrepreneurial leadership behaviour on managerial sustainability in Akwa Ibom state, Nigeria. The study employed a quantitative survey research design. This study targeted a population of 135 owners/ managers who assume leadership positions in SMEs across Akwa Ibom state. This number cuts across sectors like food processing, livestock rearing, trading, art/craft, bakery, table water, fashion and designing/hair dressing and ICT. Out of this figure 101 owners/managers were selected to represent the sample through purposive sampling technique. The cleansed data was further quantitatively analyzed by product moment correlation and multiple regressions. Results of correlation analysis reveal that there is significant relationship between all the constructs of Entrepreneurial leadership (miner behavior, explorer behavior, accelerator behavior and integrator behavior) and managerial sustainability. The result of regression analysis showed that miner behavior, explorer behavior, accelerator behavior and integrator behavior jointly contribute to managerial sustainability. This study concludes that entrepreneurial leadership behaviors of managers/owners of SMEs significantly affect managerial sustainability of such SMEs. Arising from the findings and conclusion, it is recommended amongst others that mangers/owners of SMEs should enhance their innovation capacity and expand innovative entrepreneurship.

The most crucial problem that organizations confront when the level of competition in the market rises is how to cultivate customer loyalty and increase customer lifetime value. However, because of the complexities of the competitive market, it is becoming increasingly challenging to establish and maintain consumer loyalty. Customer loyalty is anticipated to rise because of hotel characteristics. Therefore, it is necessary to assess the degree to which hotel characteristics have a positive and substantial impact on customer loyalty. As a result, this study used a cross-sectional survey of fourteen (14) star-rated hotels in Kenya's North Rift Region to assess the association between hotel characteristics and customer loyalty. A cross-sectional research survey design was utilized to randomly choose 384 visitors among the hotel guests who stayed there between January and June 2019 using the Multi-Stage Sampling Method. The respondents were given a questionnaire, which was used to gather the data. The Cronbach's alpha value, which has a coefficient of 0.7, was used to assess the reliability of the survey items. Expert evaluations were used to assess the validity of the questionnaire's items. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to present the findings. The hypothesis regarding the association between hotel characteristics and customer loyalty was tested using simple and multiple linear regression analysis. According to the study, there is a substantial correlation between hotel attributes and client loyalty, with β coefficient values of 1.079, respectively, at p < 0.05. The model's overall significance was R = 0.830, R2 = 0.689, and P = 0.005. As a result, the study concludes that there is a strong positive correlation between hotel attributes and client loyalty. The research advises hotel owners to make their establishments accessible, get favourable star ratings, and keep expanding their business to be able to match client expectations in order to attract their patronage.

As a result, this study used a cross-sectional survey of fourteen (14) star-rated hotels in Kenya's North Rift Region to assess the association between hotel characteristics and customer loyalty. A cross-sectional research survey design was utilized to randomly choose 384 visitors among the hotel guests who stayed there between January and June 2019 using the Multi-Stage Sampling Method. The respondents were given a questionnaire, which was used to gather the data. The Cronbach's alpha value, which has a coefficient of 0.7, was used to assess the reliability of the survey items. Expert evaluations were used to assess the validity of the questionnaire's items. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to present the findings. The hypothesis regarding the association between hotel characteristics and customer loyalty was tested using simple and multiple linear regression analysis. According to the study, there is a substantial correlation between hotel attributes and client loyalty, with β coefficient values of 1.079, respectively, at p < 0.05. The model's overall significance was R = 0.830, R2 = 0.689, and P = 0.005. As a result, the study concludes that there is a strong positive correlation between hotel attributes and client loyalty. The research advises hotel owners to make their establishments accessible, get favourable star ratings, and keep expanding their business to be able to match client expectations in order to attract their patronage.","PeriodicalId":221097,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Business and Management Review","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114389405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
