Stakeholder Management and Entrepreneurship in Africa

Building on past research in the broad field of stakeholder management and entrepreneurship, this book pushes a new agenda for more effective stakeholder engagement and management in entrepreneurial firms in Africa.

The book confronts the central challenge of entrepreneurship by providing a comprehensive understanding of how entrepreneurs could identify, select, enroll, and coordinate stakeholders. In addition, it assesses issues such as stakeholder influence on corporate social responsibility strategy, sustainability, and environmental management of entrepreneurial firms. An essential read for postgraduate students, researchers, and public and private analysts.

Financial Numeracy in Mathematics Education

This book presents the important role of mathematics in the teaching of financial education. Through a conceptualization of financial numeracy as a social practice, it focuses on the teaching practices, resources, and needs of secondary mathematics teachers (grades 7-12) to incorporate financial concepts in their classes. The editors and authors bring forth a novel perspective regarding mathematics education in the digital era. By focusing on financial numeracy, a key component of skills required in the digital era, they discuss important issues related to the teaching and learning of mathematics and finance. In contrary to most research in the field of financial education coming from scholars in areas such as business, accounting, management and economics, this book introduces the contribution of researchers from the field of education to the debate. The book appeals to an international audience composed of researchers, stakeholders, policymakers, teachers, and teacher educators.
