Design/Methodology/Approach: The research model and associated hypotheses were tested using partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM), based on a dataset from the Microsoft Power BI community of business intelligence (BI) and analytics tools. Findings: The results show that both organisational and technical mechanisms of the community positively influence the community structure. The community structure has a positive impact on knowledge acquisition, knowledge transformation and the size and diversity of crowd participation. The mechanisms of innovation crowdsourcing and knowledge transformation in turn have a strong influence on innovation performance. Originality: This study is among the first to provide analytical insights into the mechanisms of innovation crowdsourcing and their underlying impact on innovation performance in the context of BI and analytics tools that exhibit a multiplicity and complexity of functions and capabilities. It therefore provides strategic guidance on how to effectively stimulate crowd intelligence and maximise the collaborative and synergistic effectiveness of innovation crowdsourcing communities, focusing on knowledge management practices and user innovation behaviour and performance.","PeriodicalId":45381,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Entrepreneurship Management and Sustainable Development","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85270164","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}

Our work assesses the connection between entrepreneurship and the economic development of nine MENA economies for 2006-2018. We aim to shed additional light on the role of entrepreneurship in affecting the economy of the Middle East and African countries, hence, relates some policy and managerial implications with the results. Design/methodology/approach: Two different indicators of entrepreneurship are used; self-employment rates and the number of new business formations. The study employed four control variables: human capital, the money supply, governance quality, and foreign direct investment. We use an econometric analysis based on panel data with fixed and random effects methodology (for every year) to test the feed-back effects between entrepreneurship, economic development, and other control variables in the MENA region. Findings: Our empirical analysis suggests that the effectiveness of entrepreneurship in generating economic development in the MENA region is not related to the number of self-employed but to the creative and imitative entry of existing businesses into new markets. On the other hand, the growth of new businesses is insufficient to spur the economy unless good governance quality manages entrepreneurship in the region. Originality/value: This research adds to the literature in two ways: first, we provide new insights into the effect of two types of entrepreneurship (self-employment rate/new business formation) on economic development in the MENA region. Secondly, our research innovates in the selection of control variables to investigate factors that relate entrepreneurship to economic development. Additionally, the novelty of this paper is to analyze the relationship between entrepreneurship and economic development in the MENA region for a new period and new combinations of intermediates variables.","PeriodicalId":45381,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Entrepreneurship Management and Sustainable Development","volume":"49 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84464590","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 paper will use Bayesian Networks to model entrepreneurial intentions as it provides an advantage over classical methods. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted among a random sample of 324 Emirati University students by implementing the Unsupervised Structural Learning algorithm to build the Model. Findings: Entrepreneurial intentions are highly affected by attitude, self-efficacy, subjective norms, and opportunity feasibility. Whereas obstacles and university opportunity feasibility are the variables whose influence on entrepreneurial intention is less. Originality: This study looked at entrepreneurship intention and attitudes among students who are not yet entrepreneurs using Bayesian networks as a new technique and see how this can affect their intention in stating a business. Conclusions are stemming from the existing Emirati social construct (people-centric society of the Arab world, rather than system-centric society of the Western world). This has created value-added contribution of the paper to the research questions.","PeriodicalId":45381,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Entrepreneurship Management and Sustainable Development","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87827457","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}

DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: Our analysis is based on a review of secondary data, including Jordanian government documents, the Central Bank of Jordan circulars, and data from the World Bank and World Health Organization (WHO). Also, the descriptive study design is based on 20 semi-structured interviews with managers and business owners of SMEs in Jordan who have so far succeeded in surviving the pandemic, thereby allowing us to collect qualitative data. FINDINGS: The results have shown that Jordanian SMEs were severely impacted by issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic. This research highlights the surviving Jordanian SMEs’ use of innovative strategies such as cash management and the stimulation of the digitalisation of their activities, among others. Also, the findings might help formulate strategic decisions that focus on SMEs’ recovery and regrowth by developing and implementing contingency strategies to meet any undesirable situations arising from the COVID-19 pandemic. RESEARCH LIMITATIONS: This research is focused on the techniques being used by Jordanian SMEs in getting through the COVID-19 crisis, including policies regarding social distancing. ORIGINALITY/VALUE: Our findings show how Jordanian SMEs are continuing to persevere during this pandemic by modifying their business models to fluctuating environmental situations in minimal time. As a result, the recognised innovative strategies will potentially help aspiring Jordanian SMEs to persist within the COVID-19 pandemic. © 2022 World Association for Sustainable Development (WASD).","PeriodicalId":45381,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Entrepreneurship Management and Sustainable Development","volume":"46 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86865494","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 recent years, more and more companies are focusing on integrating sustainability into their core business, understanding that this can become a source of innovation and lasting value. This paper aims to capture what sustainability is and what are the advantages it can bring, at the company level, looking at how to create lasting value through social and environmental performance. The new challenge for companies is to find a new way to measure and manage business performance, not only by maximization of shareholders value, but by maximizing stakeholders’ value. Creating sustainable value is a new paradigm in the development of companies, based on the inclusion of intangible assets and human capital in the value of the company. Therefore, the factors that generate economic value have changed, and the theory of the shareholder company has become the theory of the partnership company, which emphasizes the well-being of all partners: employees, customers, community, shareholders, etc. Sustainable value is created from the shared interests of stakeholders and shareholders and to achieve it, modern companies must have a new approach based on identifying the key value drivers and design long-term strategies, which automatically requires a new way of seeing and treating the world.","PeriodicalId":45381,"journal":{"name":"World Journal of Entrepreneurship Management and Sustainable Development","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87964309","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}
