Using data triangulation from multiple stakeholder perspectives, two MNMCs ranked among the ten best corporate social responsibility firms in the world are studied to explore how and why these expectations impact corporate-community relationships. Theoretically, the paper argues that the Ubuntu philosophy (culture) of the rich sharing their wealth with the underprivileged in society influences community expectations. These expectations, in turn, affect social legitimacy of companies. It therefore emphasizes the need to consider the informal context when using institutional and stakeholder theory to examine corporate social responsibility (CSR) in African countries. By this, the paper contributes to the reorientation of stakeholder theory from a firm-centric to community-centric focus. Managerially, the paper suggests that multinational companies coming to Africa’s mining communities need to understand this cultural norm and set aside enough resources to provide infrastructure projects in host communities to enhance corporate-community relations.","PeriodicalId":37290,"journal":{"name":"Africa Journal of Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46609566","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}

For four and a half millennia, Egypt has been the home of the most dramatic and enduring monuments to the power of our collective imagination, ingenuity, and effort as humans – the Pyramids of Giza. Now, as we gather here in Cairo, Egypt is again building something amazing in the middle of the desert – the New Administrative Capital. We have spent a few days together on this land of momentous building, a land that is clearly about enduring history, yet is also forging a path towards change and the future. Collectively we should begin asking ourselves a series of questions. What is the Africa Academy of Management building? What are we building and changing at our home institutions? What are we – as scholars and practitioners of management, each with roles, roots, or interests in Africa – building and transforming? The answer to these questions can be found in the welcome letter in our conference programs. I quote our colleagues Samuel Aryee and Lilian Otaye-Ebede who write, “The primary purpose of AFAM is the development and improvement of members’ capabilities for research and teaching of management in organizations in Africa.” That is a valuable and worthwhile purpose. Our collective pursuit of that purpose has, in a relatively short time, created a powerful, Africa-focused community of scholars, academics and practitioners that is truly global – just take a look at the representation here in Cairo. This community is inspiring, enabling and providing a platform for discourse, dialogue, research, and advocacy. We are advancing the very field of management itself and we are nurturing future generations of colleagues and leaders in our field. And we are doing it all with a focus on this continent, Africa. This continent where there is so much potential and where we – as AFAM and as individuals – can have so much impact. Below my name in the conference program, it says “McMaster University, Canada.” Canada has been my home for decades. It is where I built my career. It is where I completed most of my university-level education. But I was born in Africa, in Egypt, right here in Cairo. The issues, ambitions, and goals we are discussing at this conference are","PeriodicalId":37290,"journal":{"name":"Africa Journal of Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41310226","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}

Accordingly, the contributions from Africa to MOS across the pre-modern, modern, and post-modern eras are examined using generative theory. Evidence from historical, philosophical, anthropological, and sociological sources demonstrates that significant contributions to MOS have originated from Africa. Even so, those contributions have not been acknowledged, especially in the post-modern era, due to the “writing out” of Africa. Several implications for research and pedagogy concerning MOS and Africa are considered given the current trend of decolonization.","PeriodicalId":37290,"journal":{"name":"Africa Journal of Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46966908","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}

Although we have made incredible and exponential advancements in all economic sectors, such as transportation, energy, industry, and agriculture; yet, in our hurriedness to adopt such technologies that have undoubtedly made our lives better, we failed to foresee the long-term consequences of such advancements. Now we are paying the price as high-carbon and resource-intensive economic models are warming the planet, which is why we all need to address what we intend to do to change and transform to more sustainable business models that can operate in harmony with nature. In addition, since we are hosted today by one of Egypt’s finest academic establishments, I would like to discuss how the innovation ecosystem can contribute to “Sustainability and Green Management” by enhancing and strengthening the collaboration between industry and academia. First, let us address the challenges in university-industry collaborations, and though I will be approaching this from Egypt’s perspective, I trust you will find many commonalities in the challenges that we all share as African nations. In 2018, Egypt ratified law no. 23 of 2018 on the “Provision of Incentives to Science, Technology and Innovation.” The law aims to support research, innovation and development carried out at small and micro-technology enterprises to raise their competitiveness and encourage young innovators. However, there are still several challenges that hinder Egypt’s innovation ecosystem such as:","PeriodicalId":37290,"journal":{"name":"Africa Journal of Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47789085","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 survey data collected among employees who operate in the oil distribution sector in Angola, this study shows that employees’ frustrations about broken organizational promises fuel their desire to quit their jobs, but less so when these employees believe that organizational leaders communicate efficiently and fairly, exhibit humility in their interactions with leaders, and perceive the leaders as forgiving. For organizations, these results provide novel insights into various conditions in which irritations about unmet expectations are less likely to escalate into a detrimental situation in which employees plan to leave.","PeriodicalId":37290,"journal":{"name":"Africa Journal of Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49370594","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}

As a research centre that aims to improve the quality of public governance approaches in Africa, C4SP invited international scholars and practitioners to talk about their perspectives on “Public Value Governance”, “Unpacking the African Context”, and “Smart Government” during four webinars, taking place between April 2021 and March 2022. The discussions revealed that: i) Smart Public Value Governance (SPVG) is a promising approach to tackle grand challenges; ii) local particularities might hamper the implementation of SPVG approaches in African countries; iii) it exists as a necessity to “listen” deeply to Africa. On this basis, we provide an outlook for future research on SPVG by suggesting studies that can be conducted along three guiding questions that can be addressed by a people-oriented or a concept-oriented research approach.","PeriodicalId":37290,"journal":{"name":"Africa Journal of Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49457711","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 some cases, such as in Taiwan, China, and Israel, voluntary returnees have made a significant impact on their home country’s economic development. However, some expatriates are forced to return due to rapid changes in the political and economic situations of their host countries. We compare and examine these two different cohorts in Ethiopia to understand what attributes are transportable and facilitate entrepreneurship, as well as barriers for the two different groups. Scholarly understanding of what drives returnee entrepreneurial entry decisions remains limited, even more so regarding sub-Sahara Africa. Using the mixed embeddedness perspective, this paper aims to unveil the multi-level drivers of returnee entrepreneurial entry decisions by comparing forced and voluntary returnees to Ethiopia. Based on in-depth interviews with 25 returnees, abductively, the findings indicate the interactive influence of personal and interpersonal factors, simultaneous engagement, and opportunity promise on returnee entrepreneurial entry decisions. Specifically, for the voluntary returnees, childhood aspirations, altruistic desire, simultaneous engagement, and nostalgia, coupled with migration capital and opportunity promise influence their business entry decisions. For the forced returnees, lack of options, regrets about migration, preconceptions, tacit capital, and government support drive their entry decisions. We discuss how these factors are contingent on migrants’ pre-, post-, and during-migration conditions in facilitating returnee entrepreneurship. We also illuminate the distinctive differences between forced and voluntary returnees. Implications for theory and practice are indicated.","PeriodicalId":37290,"journal":{"name":"Africa Journal of Management","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43908397","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}
