Book excerpt: This paper attempted to investigate how to solve the challenges confronting Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SMEs) in Nigeria. The SMEs, the world over, has been recognized as the engine and catalyst for growth and development for any economy. And despite this unique and important role they play they have continued to experience persistent challenges to their survival in Nigeria. The objectives of the paper are to examine why Small and Medium Scale Enterprises cannot access the needed funds for their operations from the Nigerian financial system, Investigate the factors responsible for lack of adequate human capacity development required for their sound operational and developmental needs and evaluate the various policy initiatives put in place by government to improve the performance of Small and Medium Enterprises. In line with the design of the study, primary data were collected through the use of questionnaires, and regression analysis was used to analyze the data. The findings of this study revealed that there is positive relationship between the growth and development of SMEs and adequate provision of required funding from financial institutions through subsidized funding and credit schemes provided at favourable interests. The paper recommends among other things, that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) should encourage the Nigerian banks to play active part in the funding of Small and Medium Enterprises at reasonable rates, and government should develop a lasting solution to the state of infrastructural deterioration especially, the provision of regular electricity supply amongst others, to enable SMEs bring down their operational cost and contribute their quota to the economy.

Book excerpt: The book presents a new approach towards the promotion of Small and Medium Scale Enterprises (SMEs). Over three decades there have been controversies in development policy circles on whether SMEs in Sub-Saharan Africa have the potential to create and sustain employment, generate income, alleviate poverty, and contribute to economic growth. The concerns were due to the worsening employment crisis in the region, increasing poverty, structural weakness and increasing globalisation pressure. Several theoretical approaches with respect to promoting Small and Medium Scale Enterprises in the region are discussed in the book, notably the view that certain internal and external constraints are limiting the growth of SMEs, and the view that specific obstacles, such as access to finance, local and global markets, entrepreneurship and management, human resources and training, information, innovation, and access to networks and technological capability have been extensively investigated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can management be developed to create the greatest wealth for society as a whole? This is the question Peter Drucker sets out to answer in Innovation and Entrepreneurship. A brilliant, mould-breaking attack on management orthodoxy it is one of Drucker’s most important books, offering an excellent overview of some of his main ideas. He argues that what defines an entrepreneur is their attitude to change: ‘the entrepreneur always searches for change, responds to it and exploits it as an opportunity’. To exploit change, according to Drucker, is to innovate. Stressing the importance of low-tech entrepreneurship, the challenge of balancing technological possibilities with limited resources, and the organisation as a learning organism, he concludes with a vision of an entrepreneurial society where individuals increasingly take responsibility for their own learning and careers.
