Title A name given to the resource A spotlight on fossil fuel lobby and energy transition possibilities in emerging oil-producing economies Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Isaac Ankrah, Michael Appiah-Kubi, Eric Ofosu Antwi, Ivy Drafor Amenyah, Mohammed Musah, Frank Gyimah Sackey, Richard Asravor, Isaiah Sikayena Description An account of the resource This study investigates the impact of fossil fuel industry on renewable energy deployment in emerging oil-producing economies, using Ghana as the subject of analysis. Drawing on the "theory of lobby," the study extends previous analyses to examine how fossil fuel production influences the possibility of transitioning to renewable energy. The results, based on a stepwise estimation technique, within a two-regime Markov-switching Model, show a consistent negative relationship between fossil fuel production and renewable energy deployment, supporting the lobby effect theory in Ghana's energy economy. Notably, while fossil fuel production initially increases the probability of transitioning to renewable energy (from 39.65 % to 58.42 %), this trend is reversed by foreign direct investment, reducing the likelihood to approximately 42 %. These findings underscore the need to expand the lobby-effect theory to include … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Elsevier Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2025 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived http://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=dzxWX-AAAAAJ&cstart=20&pagesize=80&citation_for_view=dzxWX-AAAAAJ:YFjsv_pBGBYC Language A language of the resource English Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Emotional intelligence and work engagement Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Theresa Obuobisa-Darko, Ophelia Delali Dogbe-Zungbey, Frederick Frimpong, Evans Sokro Description An account of the resource Although emotional intelligence has been linked to employee engagement in the private sector, there is very little research regarding public sector employees. This study explores how emotional intelligence influences work engagement with work-related psychological impact acting as a moderator. The study adopts the cognitive–motivational–relational theory of emotions, which has a minimal research focus in developing countries. Using stratified random sampling, a self designed questionnaire and interviews, data was gathered from public servants and analysed. The results showed that Emotional Intelligence (emotional management, emotional evaluation and emotional control) positively influences work engagement. Also, emotional management had the highest (positive) impact on work engagement among the three variables. Additionally, it was discovered that the psychological needs at the workplace … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Environment and Social Psychology Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2023 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=FrXAX-kAAAAJ&cstart=20&pagesize=80&citation_for_view=FrXAX-kAAAAJ:dshw04ExmUIC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/ac0287e2ee3b28d908dcd4b7fe153dd9.pdf 2ce7aa081e1aa1c5f0eb076840ae3d58 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Business Administration: An Introduction for Managers and Business Professionals Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Kwame Adom, Robert Ebo Hinson, Enoch Opare Mintah, Theresa Obuobisa-Darko Description An account of the resource The progress of several businesses was severely challenged through the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, with several businesses collapsing globally. Apart from the pandemic, the business posture and dynamics of yesteryear has significantly changed, as the way business is conducted today, especially in this era of Industry 4.0 and the proliferation of technology-assisted processes, have created a new environment for doing business. Comparatively, yesterday’s businesses seemed to have been in the" dark," keeping itself within limited geographical locations, contacts, and markets. However, business today, with the technological boom, has created a global village with the advent of the World Wide Web and social media which is redefining the way business is conducted especially in product and service development, marketing and publicity, customer attraction and retention, scouting and recruitment, and so on. This book responds to contemporary calls for new ways of managing businesses with practitioner-oriented discourses on topical issues like business environments and how modern businesses can thrive in the same. It discusses in some detail the general composition of business environments, specific factors that influence the operations and decisions of a business within its environment, the level of control businesses have over the factors that operate within the business environment, and the need for businesses to be proactive and to strategise in order to take advantage of the opportunities the business environment presents as while minimising the negative effects some factors also present.

Title A name given to the resource Establishing the relationship between work-family balance and work-family conflict: the role of organisational and individual factors Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Majoreen Osafroadu Amankwah, Theresa Obuobisa-Darko, Setsoafia Sena Ama Pearl Description An account of the resource The study examined the impact of organizational and individual factors on the relationship between work-family balance and work-family conflict through a survey. Data from 250 respondents were analysed using the pearson product moment correlation, ANOVA and hierarchical multiple regression. Results showed that the interaction between marital status (individual factor) and working hours (organizational factor) did not impact work-family balance. Further, a significant negative relationship exists between work-family balance and work-family conflict, gender and age. Also, marital status and working hours were positively related to work-family balance. Marital status and working hours significantly moderate the relationship between work-family conflict and work-family balance. Although working hours moderate the relationship between work-family conflict and work-family balance, it did not account for a significant variance in work-family balance. Furthermore, educational level did not significantly relate to work-family balance. These findings imply that for organizational growth to be improved, stakeholders need to consider advancing work-family balance practices to cater for both employees’ and organizational needs.

Title A name given to the resource The perception of employees on performance‐based budgeting reforms in developing countries: The perspective from Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Frank Ohemeng, Emelia A Asiedu, Theresa Obuobisa‐Darko, Juliana A Abane, Kenneth Parku Description An account of the resource In the last few decades, the use of performance management to correct state finances has led to the (re)emergence of performance‐based budgeting (PBB), with the belief that it will reveal where scarce resources should be concentrated. The efficacy of PBB, however, continues to be debated. This paper attempts to contribute to the discussion, by examining the case of Ghana from the perspective of budget officers. How do budget officers perceive the PBB? It is argued that while PBB is professed as a useful budgetary mechanism, there are challenges that need to be addressed if it is to achieve its objectives.

Title A name given to the resource Microfinance and credit rationing in Ghana: Does the microfinance type matter? Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Lluís Díaz Serrano, Frank G Sackey Description An account of the resource This study sets out to examine the extent to which access to credit and credit rationing are influenced by the microfinance type based on the major factors determining micro, small and medium enterprises’ access to credit from microfinance institutions in the era of financial liberalization. The data for the study were gleaned from the microfinance institutions’ credit and loan records consisting of the various pieces of information provided by the borrowers in the application process. Our results are puzzling and show that credit rationing is not influenced by the microfinance types but by the individual microfinance institutions. Keywords: Microfinance, Ghana, Credit Rationing.

Title A name given to the resource Do political regime transitions in Africa Matter for Citizens’ Health Status Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Lluís Díaz Serrano, Frank G Sackey Description An account of the resource Africa’s quest to achieving improved health status and meeting the Millennium Development Goals targets cannot be effectively achieved without examining the quality of leadership, transitions and regimes and how they impact on the decisions and the policy effectiveness that bring about improved health and living standards of the citizenry. In this paper, we study the importance of regime transitions on government’s expenditure in health and on infant mortality, as a development indicator. A unique panel dataset comprising 44 sub-Saharan African countries spanning from 1970 t0 2010 containing information on political regime and leaders was used for the study. To account for the relevance of leader characteristics in regime transitions in our study we control for leader fixed-effects. The overall results are suggestive of a democratic advantage in the process of achieving effective health policy outcomes for promoting health, and hence the wellbeing of the citizens in contemporary sub-Saharan Africa in the long run. Keywords: Africa, health policy, public health, private health, child mortality, democracy, autocracy, political leaders.

Title A name given to the resource Empowering the Vulnerable to Be Entrepreneurs: An Empirical Test on the Effectiveness of the Ghana Microfinance Policy 2006 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Luis Diaz-Serrano, Frank Gyimah Sackey Description An account of the resource The study aims at testing the Ghana Microfinance Policy set up to support the vulnerable through access to credit. We resort to the Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition to determine if there is positive discrimination in favor of women and young entrepreneurs in the rationing behavior of the microfinance companies. This is what we should expect if the policy is effective. Our results show that even after controlling for a large number of borrower characteristics, microfinance type and credit worthiness variables, there is positive discrimination that favors female and young entrepreneurs as this discrimination is largely determined by the differential treatment these groups receive in respect of men and older borrowers from microfinance institutions. Our results show that the Government microfinance is the most severe in the rationing behavior towards the discriminating groups.
