It Services Offshoring To Africa: Assessing The Attractiveness And Readiness Of Nigeria, Joshua O. Omoju
It Services Offshoring To Africa: Assessing The Attractiveness And Readiness Of Nigeria, Joshua O. Omoju
The African Journal of Information Systems
This paper presents one of the first comprehensive analyses of Nigeria’s future readiness and attractiveness as a potential destination for IT-enabled services offshoring. The paper examines existing literature on IT services offshoring to Africa, and presents results from in-depth evaluation of seven important location selection criteria. The study indicates that while Nigeria appears to be making progress in many areas, the country is neither yet ready nor attractive as an offshoring destination. Nevertheless, the analysis suggests that Nigeria might already be on the path to attaining readiness in the future. However, significant hurdles will need to be surmounted if Nigeria …

Towards A Model Of Senior Citizens’ Motivation To Pursue Cybersecurity Awareness Training: Lecture-Based Vs. Video-Cases Training, Carlene G. Blackwood-Brown
Towards A Model Of Senior Citizens’ Motivation To Pursue Cybersecurity Awareness Training: Lecture-Based Vs. Video-Cases Training, Carlene G. Blackwood-Brown
KSU Proceedings on Cybersecurity Education, Research and Practice
Cyber-attacks on Internet users, and in particular senior citizens, who have limited awareness of cybersecurity, have caused billions of dollars in losses annually. To mitigate the effects of cyber-attacks, several researchers have recommended that the cybersecurity awareness levels of Internet users be increased. Cybersecurity awareness training programs are most effective when they involve training that focus on making users more aware so that they can identify cyber-attacks as well as mitigate the effects of the cyber-attacks when they use the Internet. However, it is unclear about what motivates Internet users to pursue cybersecurity awareness training so that they can identify …
Financial Literacy After Sarbanes-Oxley: Building It; Sustaining It, Edwin I. Malet
Financial Literacy After Sarbanes-Oxley: Building It; Sustaining It, Edwin I. Malet
Journal of Executive Education
The core theme of the article is that financial literacy is a challenging goal, but an achievable one. Contrary to popular belief, finance is a diverse subject and the meaning of “financial literacy” varies on a business-by-business, job-by-job basis. Practically speaking, “financial literacy” is interwoven with “business literacy”, i.e., understanding the transactions, processes, markets, stakeholders, etc., that together comprise a business. This makes it hard to deploy generic educational solutions. Some managers need more than others. Some need different than others. My recommendation is not to look for a universal definition of literacy, but rather to treat your company as …
A Comparative Analysis Of Effective School Board Leadership: The Case Of Gwinnett County And Atlanta City Public Schools, Joshua Allen Garner
A Comparative Analysis Of Effective School Board Leadership: The Case Of Gwinnett County And Atlanta City Public Schools, Joshua Allen Garner
Dissertations, Theses and Capstone Projects (Full IR Collection)
A quality education is essential in determining the success of future generations. All too often K-12 school systems fail to meet the expectations of success held by students, parents, and the community. On the other hand, there are school systems that surpass expectations of success held by stake holders of the school system. Exemplifying this phenomenon is the case of Atlanta Public Schools, who were placed on probation by the accreditation agency, the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, and the case of Gwinnett County Public Schools, who were awarded the 2010 Broad Award for minority student achievement (Torres 2011) …

The article describes the factors that contribute to audit committee effectiveness. An effective audit committee has qualified members with the authority and resources to protect stakeholder interests by ensuring reliable financial reporting, internal controls, and risk management through its diligent oversight efforts. The determinants of audit committee effectiveness includes the audit committee composition, authority, resources and diligence. The major U.S. stock exchanges require that audit committees be composed of at least three independent, financially literate directors. Team issues also are relevant when considering audit committee composition. The audit committee derives its authority from the full board of directors, federal law …
