Title A name given to the resource Stakeholder Legitimacy Perceptions and Firm Innovation: A developing country perspective Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emelia Amoako-Asiedu, Priscilla Ntriwaa Otuo, Theresa Obuobisa-Darko, Alex Antwi-Agyei Description An account of the resource The stakeholder engagement and innovation literature has received considerable academic attention. However, the subject of stakeholder legitimacy perceptions which impact the willingness and ability of stakeholders to engage with entrepreneurial ventures have not been fully explored in the entrepreneurship literature. This research fills the knowledge gap by reviewing literature on venture legitimacy, firm innovation, and stakeholders. Accordingly, the study discusses the perception of five stakeholder groups on firm legitimacy and suggests how they impact innovation in developing economies. At the end of the chapter, we highlight the critical issues of legitimacy perceptions, innovation, and stakeholders and point out potential avenues for further research.

Title A name given to the resource Conceptual Framework–Sustainability Actions, Global Crises and Justice in the Future of Tourism and Hospitality Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource George Kofi Amoako, Genevive Sedalo, Emelia Amoako Asiedu, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong Description An account of the resource The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic posed a big obstacle for nations as it affected the anticipated cash flows from the tourism and hospitality industry. Many tourist destinations have suffered as a result of the coronavirus disease 2019 crisis. Tourism and hospitality have been major source of revenue, and nations depend on them to augment their budgetary issues and support the provision of basic public services. Ethical tourism, responsible tourism, social justice, and sustainable tourism promise to be effective tools to execute this reputation agenda, which scholars have ignored. This paper proposes a conceptual framework that shows the effect of sustainability actions and justice on stakeholders in the tourism and hospitality industries, presently and for future generations. An in-depth literature review was employed using papers on sustainability actions.

Title A name given to the resource Effect of cowpea fortification on the quality characteristics of plantain-based Ghanaian traditional foods Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource EO SAKYI-DAWSON, O Aduamah, SK Sefa-Dedeh, EO Afoakwa Description An account of the resource Cowpea fortification has been used to effectively improve the protein content of some traditional foods. It is however important to find out the extent to which addition of cowpea affects the desirable quality characteristics of the nutritionally improved products. This study investigated the effect of cowpea fortification on the physico-chemical, functional and sensory qualities of two popular plantain-based traditional Ghanaian foods (unripe plantain fufu and fried ripe plantain-pancake-tatale). The plantain fufu flour was fortified with cowpea at concentrations of 0, 10 and 20%. For the tatale mix, cowpea was substituted for wheat flour at levels of 0, 10, 20% and 100%. Product proximate composition, physico-chemical and functional properties were determined using standard analytical procedures. The acceptability of key sensory quality characteristics (color, taste, flavor, and softness) was assessed using a consumer panel. The softness of tatale was measured with the TA. XT2 Texture analyzer. Cowpea fortification enhanced the nutritional quality of the plantain products. In the tatale mix, protein increased from 6.1% at 0% fortification to 13.8%(dry weight basis) at 100% fortification. Protein increased from 3.3% to 6.3% in fufu flour. At 20% fortification, ash, fat and fiber also increased to significant (p< 0.05) levels for both products. Cowpea fortification reduced the water absorption capacity of both products. Swelling capacity at both 28 C and 70 C decreased with increasing cowpea concentration. Viscoamylograph indices indicated that cowpea fortification of fufu flour enhanced its viscosity characteristics. The cooked paste viscosity indices of the tatale mix … Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2002 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=EZuX1N8AAAAJ&cstart=200&pagesize=100&citation_for_view=EZuX1N8AAAAJ:738O_yMBCRsC Language A language of the resource English Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Leadership and Employee Performance in the Ghanaian Public Sector: A Humanistic Perspective Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emelia Amoako Asiedu, Kenneth Parku, Frank LK Ohemeng, Theresa Obuobisa-Darko Description An account of the resource Leadership is seen as an imperative stimulus for the effective functioning of employees, be they in the public or private sectors. Humanistic leadership has to do with leadership that the acceptance of humanistic ideals by leaders will result in a shared common spirit, uniting the leaders and their employees which in turn will drive employee performance. Using the Ghana public service as a case, where the performance is considered unacceptable, the study attempts to answer the question: in what ways can leaders utilise the humanistic leadership style to facilitate employees’ performance in the public services in developing countries? We contend that leadership that focuses on respecting people, striving to pursue the common good, and going beyond the “boss-subordinate” model of power and influence, will lead to employees reciprocating which in turn will stimulate employee performance.

Title A name given to the resource The Current State of Performance-Based Budgeting and Its Impact on Public Budgeting in Ghana: Views from Budget Officers Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Frank Ohemeng, Emelia Amoako Asiedu, Accra Legon, Theresa Obuobisa-Darko, Juliana Abane, Kenneth Parku Description An account of the resource The original aim of PB, in the United States, as well as in other countries that adopted this innovation, was to purge budgeting of its line-item focus on the cost of inputs and to base spending decisions on the work to be performed. It bears remembering that most OECD countries once had highly itemized budgets, with expenditures structured into detailed classifications of personnel, supplies, travel, equipment and other goods and services purchased by governments. In some countries, national budgets were long shopping lists, bereft of explanations of what the items would be used for; in others, the budget had narrative descriptions of government activities, but little explanation of what they were expected to accomplish (5).

Title A name given to the resource Effects of fermentation and cowpea fortification on the quality characteristics of maize-based nixtamalized foods Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource SK SEFA-DEDEH, S Asare, EO Sakyi-Dawson, EO Afoakwa Description An account of the resource A 3 x 2 x 2 factorial experiment with fermentation time (0, 24, 48 hours), cowpea (0 and 15%) and alkaline treatment (nixtamalized and non-nixtamalized corn) was used. The blends were dried using a cabinet drier, milled into flour and spices added and processed into a snack food. Samples were analysed for moisture, fat acidity, water absorption and swelling capacity. The cylinder probe test cell was used in a TA-XT2 Texture Analyzer to measure the hardness of processed snack foods. Sensory analysis was conducted to determine the overall acceptability of the snack products. Fermentation and cowpea levels showed no significant effect (p< 0.05) on the moisture contents of the products. Cowpea addition caused decreases in the water absorption capacities from 192.23 to 117.15% in the unfermented nixtamalized sample whereas general increases were observed in the non-nixtamalized products. Similar observations were made for the swelling capacities of the products. No significant variations were observed in the fat acidity levels of the nixtamalized products with fermentation time and cowpea fortification. The texture (hardness) of the formulated products was acceptable. Sensory evaluation indicated that the presence of cowpea and fermentation in the products did not influence their acceptability by the panel.

Title A name given to the resource The Woman’s Role In Agricultural Policy Formulation and Implementation Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa Description An account of the resource Gender issues in agricultural technology development are focused on. In spite of a general perception of the vital role of women in agricultural production, some models and concepts still undermining this reality are identified and discussed. The prevalent model of modal rural households assumes a male head who acts as the single farm decision maker and many economic models of farm enterprises assume a commonality of interest among household members. Similarly, the conceptual and modelling biases of studies of production, commodities and annual field monocrops, and the focus on single utilities are also discussed, drawing examples from several developing countries. It is suggested that irrationality and waste of research and extension inevitably result in a non-adoption of technological innovation.

Title A name given to the resource Influence of the Addition of Cereal Malt on the Viscoelastic and Functional Properties of Cereal-Based Weaning Foods Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, Samuel Sefa-Dedeh, Yvonne Kluvitse, Esther Sakyi-Dawson Description An account of the resource Traditional weaning foods are made from cereals resulting in gruels of high density with viscosities not suitable for infant feeding. Reducing the bulk density in fermented weaning foods will facilitate the production of infant weaning porridges of improved caloric density and lower viscosity. Our objective was aimed at investigating the influence of the addition of cereal malts on the viscoelastic and functional properties of cereal-based weaning foods. A 3x3x2 factorial experiment with sprouting time (2, 3, 4 days), malt concentration (5 and 10%) and cereal malt (maize, millet and sorghum) was used. The cereals were sprouted for 2, 3, and 4 days and then incorporated into fermented maize dough at concentrations of 5% and 10%(dry matter basis). Samples were analysed for their viscoelastic properties using 8% slurries in a Brabender Viscoamylograph, and functional properties (pH, titratable acidity, water holding capacity and swelling capacity). Sorghum malt in comparison to millet and maize malts was not effective in terms of lowering the hot and cold viscosities of the fermented maize dough. Maize and millet malts liquefied the dough considerably during both the hot and cold paste viscosities. However, the effect of 4-day sprouted cereal malts was most pronounced whilst the optimum activity of maize malt was observed after three days of sprouting. The pH of the products decreased (5.38-3.84) with increasing malt concentration with concomitant increase in acid production (0.238–0.624 gLactic acid/100g dry sample) and no significant effect (p< 0.05) was noted for the type of cereal malt. Water holding and swelling capacities however decreased … Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2003 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=EZuX1N8AAAAJ&cstart=200&pagesize=100&citation_for_view=EZuX1N8AAAAJ:dTyEYWd-f8wC Language A language of the resource English http://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/31128cb02c4edafaafa70a590f1edb82.pdf c934a224a6930d961c6cf8f4af5856f1 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
