The principal objective of this research centers on scrutinizing the strategic orientation of UK Manufacturing SMEs. Conducting an extensive literature review, we critically evaluated Porter's framework and identified several gaps in its applicability. Notably, critiques assert that the model inadequately captures the intricate nature of strategic behavior within real organizations and fails to provide a fully accurate representation of strategy-performance relationships. Empirical research further highlights the model's limitations, indicating its inability to facilitate the desirable combination of competitive strategies by firms. To address the outlined objectives, we employed a semi-structured questionnaire in our investigation. The ensuing analysis involved the application of factor and cluster analysis to identify strategic variables currently employed by SMEs in the manufacturing domain. Our data analysis revealed a divergence from the adoption of Porter's single generic strategies. Instead, the findings supported the utilization of mixed strategies that integrate elements from both differentiation and low-cost strategies. Significantly, these hybrid approaches were found to be associated with enhanced firm performance. This study contributes valuable insights into the nuanced landscape of competitive strategies within the UK SMEs, shedding light on the dynamic interplay between strategic choices and firm performance.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"62 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140254796","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}

A total of three hundred individuals were purposively sampled and data was collected through the use of structured questionnaires guided by parameters as observed in the Technology Adoption Model (TAM). Hypotheses were tested using the CB-SEM technique with analytical packages including SPSS 24 and AMOS 23. The findings revealed limited utilization of online banking and peer-to-peer lending platforms, with cryptocurrency exchanges and crowd-funding platforms ranking as the least utilized instruments. Additionally, the study establishes a significant influence of both financial knowledge and financial behaviour on the adoption of FinTech services. Individuals who comprehend the financial benefits of FinTech and perceive these services as innovative solutions are more likely to adopt them. This positive attitude is driven by the perceived ease of use, transaction tracking, and the potential to generate income through FinTech solutions. However, this paper did not find any statistically significant effect of financial skills on the adoption of FinTech services. Therefore, financial knowledge and a positive attitude toward FinTech services emerged as pivotal factors positively influencing financial services adoption in the Buea Silicon Mountain community of Cameroon.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"9 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139523783","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}

Using literature review, this study sheds light on the impact of AI on the accounting profession. The results of this study mostly found that the impact of AI on accounting profession can be divided into three themes; (i) automation of routine tasks; (ii) enhanced data analysis and (iii) value-added of the professional roles. The automation of routine tasks includes data entry, validation and transaction processing, while for enhanced data analysis, it includes predictive analytics and decision support. AI also has impacted in terms of value-added of the professional roles which comprise of increasing scalability and cost savings and focus on higher value activities. The findings of this study suggest that the accounting profession is evolving in response to AI technology, and accountants should embrace these changes to harness the full potential of AI in their work.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":"90 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139530275","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}

Considering multiple facets of enhancement are inevitable, the various dimensions of transformational leadership enable scholars and industrial practitioners to pinpoint the pivotal aspects of transformational leadership responsible for employee engagement. Expanding on existing theories, it becomes vital to establish the traits of transformational leadership that significantly influence an employee engagement. Thus, this conceptual paper shall fortify the theoretical structure by investigating the relationship of transformational leadership (idealized influence, individualized consideration, inspirational motivation, intellectual stimulation, employee appreciation, performance expectation) and the correlations towards employee engagement, through comprehensive literature reviews, validating the significance of the relationship. From the findings of this study, the relationship between transformational leadership and employee engagement was justified to be significant. Future studies may leverage the expanded framework proposed in this conceptual paper to conduct quantitative studies in specific geographic areas or industries, further validating the effectiveness of these variables.","PeriodicalId":244811,"journal":{"name":"Business Management and Strategy","volume":" 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139142429","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}
