Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This assessment draws upon historical evidence to rewardingly establish that entrepreneurship can only thrive where its culture prevails and that the phenomenon is more about value addition and less about risk-taking. Within this realm, historical records show that the most rewarding entrepreneurial actions were undertaken without risks or investment capital. For example, by 'simply' advancing that productivity would increase if jobs were simplified via a 'one best way' by which each and every specific task could be performed, Frederick Taylor (1856-1915) not only attracted a fortune to himself, he attracted and still does to present day institutions that follow his prescriptions all over the world.William Shakespeare (1582-1616) is considered to have drawn much of the plots of his Roman tragedies from Plutarch's (AD 46 -120) 'Parallel lives of illustrious Greeks and Romans' (Spencer, 1964); but Shakespeare who also wrote as many as 38 plays and 154 sonnets is considered the greatest writer in the English language and the world's greatest playwright of all time because he acted entrepreneurially by adding artistic value to existing tales and stories of ancient Greek and Roman folklore among other contributions.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research focus to investigate the impact of policy measures in entrepreneurship development in Nigeria. The research method adopted was mainly secondary sources derived from archival data such as Thesis publications, scientific journals publications, African statistical yearbook, and World Fact-book, among others. Nigeria's entrepreneurs have experienced difficulties in doing business due to: Managerial challenges, technological problems, lack of credit facilities, lack of basic amenities or infrastructural facilities, lack of power supply; inconsistencies in government policies, political instability (Boko Haram Insurgence), lack of patronizing made in Nigeria products among others. To address entrepreneurship development problems, the government has introduced programs such as; World Bank SMEs 1 and 2 Loan Scheme, National Economic Reconstruction Fund (NERFUND), Peoples and Community Bank, Nigerian Bank of Commerce and Industry(NBCI), Export Processing Zone (EPZ), National Poverty Eradication, Advisory Agencies, few to mention. Findings reveal that these policy measures have played an insignificant role in entrepreneurship development instead they work only on white papers and used by some corrupt government officials to embezzle national treasury. Nigeria being gifted with large reserves of natural resources is expected to build a thriving and vibrant economy, to reduce poverty level, and provide health, education and infrastructure services to meet with the demands of the teeming population and other African countries and the entire world at large. Based on findings, the study recommends that government should borrow a leaf from Giant Asian countries to implement death sentence on corruption practices to serve as a deterrent for individuals to learn their lessons. Again, the government should introduce monitoring unit to oversee activities of entrepreneurship projects development funds and disbursement processes; government should partner with other world agencies to encourage regular, seminars; research and development to boost entrepreneurial capacity and productivity.

In specific, some of the objectives include to determine the relationship between loans/credit facilities and start-up motives in Nigeria, to examine the relationship between loans/credit facilities and innovativeness in Nigeria and to investigate on the relationship between loans/credit facilities and risk taking in Nigeria. In Nigeria, different administrations at various times have geared their efforts towards developing its entrepreneurship. Several developmental and financial assistance instruments were employed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entrepreneurship in Developing Countries surveys the literature on entrepreneurship in developing countries, which covers a wide range of issues from culture and values, institutional barriers such as financial sector development, governance, and property rights, to the adequacy of education and technical skills. A broad literature has also developed on foreign direct investment and its positive and negative effects on technology transfer and entrepreneurship. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, a number of studies examined the development of small- and medium-sized enterprises in transition economies. As these economies moved from centralized economies to market economies, enterprise and entrepreneurship became important. Other studies examine the effects of infrastructural development and the macroeconomy on entrepreneurship. With such a wide scope of issues, Entrepreneurship in Developing Countries offers a framework for synthesizing this growing literature. This study offers that the identification of the externalities which affect entrepreneurship provides a useful framework to examine the literature on entrepreneurship in developing countries. Entrepreneurship in Developing Countries: - Examines the evolution of development policy - beginning with the colonial period and the immediate post-colonial era. In both of these periods there were strong government intervention and a heavy emphasis on government planning for development. An important cornerstone of the post-colonial period was the use of import substitution programs. - Second, with the failure of import substitution, many developing countries then switched to export promotion. - Third, we set out a framework to explore the literature on entrepreneurship in developing countries based on the existence of network, knowledge and demonstration, and failure externalities. - Fourth, the authors identify the core policy issues to address these externalities and argue that internalizing these externalities by finding mechanisms to reward and encourage the firms and people which produce them, should increase the level of productive entrepreneurship in developing countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The increasing numbers of college and university graduates from Africa’s tertiary institutions and the declining prospects for jobs in the public and private sector have reinforced the importance of creating avenues for self-employment. But job creation exposes a serious gap in education policies, for basic skills in entrepreneurship are not taught in most tertiary curricula across the continent. This nineteen-chapter volume provides essential course text material for developing the field of entrepreneurship in tertiary institutions, thus addressing the issue of appropriate pedagogy critical for the emerging field of entrepreneurship development in higher education institutions in Africa. Drawing from Nigeria, West Africa and other parts of the developing world, the volume furnishes much needed empirical information to fashion out appropriate policies and projects within macroeconomic framework to nurture small and medium enterprises as a development tool.

Book excerpt: This paper underscores the importance of policy formulation in entrepreneurship development in Nigeria as well as the importance of entrepreneurship in reducing the ever-growing rate of unemployment in Nigeria. The methodology adopted for this paper is the narrative-textual case study (NTCS); it is a social science research method that relies on information and data from several sources for problem identification and problem solving. The paper opines that entrepreneurship is lacking in Nigeria due to certain challenges such as epileptic power supply, lack of genuine support for those intending to start up a business, lack of strong willed-power to take risk; all these and more inhibit entrepreneurship development and creates unemployment. The paper concludes that government policy on entrepreneurship should be more robust and that government should create conducive business environments to enhance entrepreneurship development and reduction in youth unemployment.

Book excerpt: Nigeria has experienced significant economic progress since publication in 1999 of the first edition of Perspectives on Nigerian Economic Development. Two main drivers of this progress have been the beneficial return to democratic rule and the implementation of key economic reforms, particularly in pursuing external debt relief, implementing excess crude account to stabilize revenue volatility, introducing contributory pension schemes and taking steps to privatize key sectors such as telecommunications. This volume is focused on issues relating to good political and corporate governance and national development; budget and fiscal policy; the Nigerian financial and capital markets and banking. Part one deals with the issues of globalisation and how Nigeria can play in the emergent environment. Part two (Managing the Nigerian Economy), Part three (Strengthening the Nigerian Banking Sector and Part Four (Entrepreneurship and Corporate Governance) proffers ways and means of handling these intertwined aspects of national challenges. The final part - Key Sector Issues deals with three vital areas - Education, Transportation, and Oil and Gas.

This book was released on 2012-06-20 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nigerians love to debate. Even under colonial rule, the authorities realised that Nigerians could not be repressed and that they always expressed their views on topical issues of development. The topical issues that have driven Nigeria's political economy include Constitution and Constitutionalism, Democracy, the National Question, Civil-Military Relations, Federalism, State and Nation-Building, Local Governance, Leadership, the Role of Traditional Rulers, the Economy and Religion.This volume is a selection of some of Professor Elaigwu's contributions to these debates. In it, Elaigwu, a leading Nigerian political scientist, argues that the challenges facing the country are not unsurmountable and that Nigerians must take the destiny of their country in their hands and look inwards to deal with the country's weaknesses while strengthening her capacity and resolve to become an industrialised and powerful country within a limited space of time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conceptual and empirical literature on entrepreneurship development in Nigeria has increased tremendously in the last decade (2007-2016) due to refocusing of government policies towards entrepreneurship skills acquisition (especially in the Nigerian tertiary institutions) and application to revamp the economy through innovations: new idea, new product, and new start-up. However, literature search on entrepreneurial leadership in Nigeria revealed that the area has been neglected, despite the importance of entrepreneurs' leadership skills to the development, growth and sustenance of future entrepreneurs and indeed, enterprises in the country. It is against this backdrop that this study review extant literature with a view to determining challenges and prospects of entrepreneurial leadership in Nigeria. Through the adoption of library-and-desk research methods, the study was able to make logical deductions regarding the prospects of entrepreneurial leadership in Nigeria, which include raising future entrepreneurs through transfer of entrepreneurial skills and attitudes, increasing level of innovation through new entrepreneurs and enterprises, increasing government revenue from newly established enterprises, increasing level of political participation when successful entrepreneurs vie for political positions, and attaining true transformation of the country.

Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2016 in the subject Communications - Mass Media, grade: B 68.3, , language: English, abstract: The prevailing economic scenario in Nigeria, of a truth, has led the present government in Nigeria to look at means of diversifying the economy. With this, it has become imperative to think of incorporating various entrepreneurial options in actuality as well as introducing new entrepreneurial options into the already existing economic system as a mechanism of sustenance and a survival kit to keep afloat amidst this economic depreciation. Furthermore, Olayinka and Olaoluwa bring this problem to a practical pinpoint by illustrating that "the present government has been advocating for the incorporation of entrepreneurship studies into the syllabus of all our higher institutions of learning"; with the aims to sensitise the entire citizens of Nigeria about the importance and advantages of being self-reliant instead of searching for white-collar jobs (also referred to as salary jobs), which are not always readily available.

This book was released on 2020-09-30 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young people engaging in agricultural entrepreneurship in developing countries face several challenges. Above all, they lack adequate access to important resources and opportunities. These include land, credit, farm inputs, agronomic and vocational training, insurance, and lucrative markets. Addressing these challenges requires answers to some key questions: Which factors drive the success of youth entrepreneurs in developing countries? What type of business ‘ecosystem’ is best suited for their development? What roles should the various stakeholders play in making youth entrepreneurship flourish nationally? How can young people expand their start-ups to become small, medium, or largescale businesses? To answer these questions, the International Food Policy and Research Institute (IFPRI) and the Syngenta Foundation for Sustainable Agriculture (SFSA) developed a conceptual framework. This framework classifies contextual and driving factors that contribute to the success of youth entrepreneurship. There are four broad categories for intervention: policy, institutional, technological, and individual capabilities.
