One approach to this question is to compare different models in terms of their overlaps or similarities. This study researches the topic with a reverse approach: can one derive a preference for a particular leadership style or even a leadership direction or leadership ‘school' from the popular leadership literature? The guiding question is which leadership books sell the most and which leadership style or elements of leadership they represent. For this purpose, Amazon's bestseller lists in leadership and management in a specific period and local market are examined in a quantitative-qualitative study both to elicit the distribution of a model and to find common styles and elements of leadership among different authors. The result shows that current popular leadership literature primarily reflects transformational leadership models with elements of transactional management. A particular leadership mindset and special leadership activities such as goal orientation or inspirational motivation can be found in almost all of the most widespread models.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45516348","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}

This is important for ascertaining the infrastructure with more influence on health systems. Findings in this regard are vital in Africa where health systems perform poorly, with fiscal challenges for public provision of health care needs. This paper examined the effect of infrastructure types on health system performance in Africa using data for 54 countries in the region and over the period 2003–2018. Health system performance is captured by population health outcome. Findings are shown using the System GMM estimation technique. The results showed a significant effect of transport and ICT in improving the length of life and reducing under-five mortality. Improvement in ICT reduced maternal deaths. An increase in all infrastructure types (transport, electricity and ICT) significantly reduced infant mortality. From the results, only ICT is associated with improvement in all population health outcome variables used in the study. Findings suggest the key role of infrastructure on health system performance, with ICT shown to have more influence on health systems than other infrastructure types. The provision and use of ICT should therefore be given top priority in the pursuit of better health system performance in Africa.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43071397","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}

The local municipalities within the KwaZulu-Natal province in South Africa are used as a case study. Spatial econometric techniques are employed that incorporate dependence between regions in close geographical proximity. Disaggregated data and knowledge about the dynamics at a sub-regional level are usually unavailable for designing employment policies, especially for regional economies in under-developed countries. The results suggest an absence of spatial unemployment clustering and autocorrelation between neighbouring economies. The absence of externalities implies that little mutual dependence exists between adjacent economies, and therefore municipal unemployment patterns can be viewed as spatially random. The economy of a region is therefore fundamentally heterogeneous in that its unemployment rates are determined and influenced by its unique and diverse factors rather than neighbouring unemployment trends or patterns.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41371881","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}

It begins by defining the sustainability and sustainable development concepts. Thereafter, the paper highlights the dimensions of sustainable development and sustainability based on the literature. The paper also shows the relationship between sustainability and sustainable development. The paper used the literature review methodology. The paper finds that each region of the world has made some progress towards achieving high levels of sustainable development; however, each region also faces unique challenges that affect the attainment of the sustainable development goals in the region. These challenges have social, political,structural, institutional and economic dimensions. Also, while sustainable development is a widely acknowledged concept in academia its practicality in policy circles has been contested. Existing empirical studies show that incorporating sustainability or sustainable development concerns into business or environmental management yields some positive benefits. Finally, some areas for future research are suggested.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46320978","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}

The study reveals a significant and positive relationship between ICT and the export of agricultural raw materials and services. ICT shows a negative relationship with import in the agricultural sector, and a positive and significant relationship within the manufacturing sector. Additionally, there is no evidence of statistically significant relationships between ICT and service import. In relating ICT to growth, at the sectoral level, significant positive effects on growth were found with a varying magnitude in all sectors. The national ICT recommendation is that governments in African countries should increase investment in the ICT sector of the economy, which will have a remarkable effect on international trade and the economy.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47258937","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 key argument in the study is that building policy for crisis requires the understanding of both governance capacity as well as legitimacy. Through the theoretical lens of crisis management and resilience building, the study explores the key literature on the topic to arrive at a conceptual framework which is further explored through mixed-method research. The study explores the phenomenon in the context of Sri Lanka and its mechanism to deal with the pandemic. Fifteen interviews were conducted, followed by a survey covering key sectors of tourism, information technology and education to understand the extent to which crisis management strategies were achieved in the policy procedures. The article identifies some key themes: political capacity, stakeholder involvement, input capacity and throughput capacity in the overall governance system that requires further improvements, including the gender differences in accepting the policy decisions, which can be explored in future work for greater insight.","PeriodicalId":30026,"journal":{"name":"Managing Global Transitions","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48471869","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}

In addition, asymmetry only existsbetween food prices and exchange rate in the short run while it only subsistsfor all macro prices, except interest rate as a dependent variable, inthe long run. Also, the relative effects of climate change on macro pricesgrade food prices with the highest effect. In fact, the continual need for climatepolicies in both financial and real sectors to douse the effect of climatechange on macro prices cannot be overemphasised.
