10- SMEs Managerial competencies
● Total number of respondents: 248
In this section, we wanted to explore the managerial competencies, and how African SMEs managers stand in comparison with the norms of managerial competencies. We used the following table to gather most of the information from the Program participants. It is worth noting however, that Program Participants are themselves the managers of the companies on behalf of which they are answering, so human bias is to be included in the answers. It is comparable to self-assessment testing.
Managerial Level
It is obvious from data presented in our following table that African SMEs enjoy a good level of management “In my business I would qualify the level of management as being Very Good” when some 60,5% agree on this and 19,4% strongly agree. This is further enforced by respondents believing that African SMEs’ managers have good managerial expertise. We see 51,2% who disagree and 14,5% strongly disagree with “Our managers lack managerial expertise” thus totaling 65,7% thinking that the managerial expertise of African SMEs is adequate for their businesses.
