It uses both the social exchange theory and the task-technology fit theory to capture the different relationships and effects between the use of these two social media tools and the growth of MSMEs in Egypt. Growth is divided into financial growth (measured through the increase in sales) and non-financial growth (measured through customer engagement and brand performance). Linear regression and t-tests are conducted to identify and compare the effects of the use of social media platforms. Findings indicate that the use of social media has a positive effect on both financial and non-financial growth. Specifically, the use of Facebook has a greater impact on financial growth and brand performance, while the use of Facebook and Instagram combined has a higher effect on customer engagement.","PeriodicalId":35504,"journal":{"name":"Global Business and Economics Review","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135733898","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 questionnaire was designed and distributed to a total of 350 internal auditors who are the member of the Institute of Internal Auditors of Thailand (IIAT). Using multiple regression analysis, the findings indicate that factors relating to know-how including IT-based knowledge, cognition, and competency positively influence the internal auditors' readiness for digital transformation. A positive attitude and a willingness to accept change on the part of internal auditors are also essential factors affecting their readiness. Moreover, support from organisations, including professional organisations, are key factors creating a positive working environment to drive the competency of the internal auditors to adapt themselves to cope with the advancement of technology.","PeriodicalId":35504,"journal":{"name":"Global Business and Economics Review","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134954762","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}
