How do leaders foster innovation? Articles in this category examine leadership styles (transformational, transactional, laissez-faire) and their impact on employee creativity and organizational performance.
Many African journals do not charge submission fees, but there is usually a publication fee upon acceptance to cover editing and typesetting. Always verify the current fee structure on the official website before submitting, as fees are subject to change.
Many international journals charge exorbitant Article Processing Charges (APCs). FJMIE operates on a model that prioritizes academic discourse over profit, making it affordable for researchers who self-fund their studies.

In an era defined by rapid technological disruption and shifting economic tides, the traditional rules of business are being rewritten at breakneck speed. Gone are the days when management was merely about maintaining the status quo. Today, it is about audacity—it is about looking at a complex problem and seeing a lucrative opportunity.
This is the intellectual playground where the FUOYE Journal of Management, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship resides.
Where Theory Meets the Grind
There are academic journals that speak in echoes, trapped in the ivory tower of abstraction. Then there is the FUOYE Journal—a publication firmly rooted in the soil of practical reality. It serves as a bridge between the rigorous research halls of the Federal University Oye-Ekiti and the bustling, unpredictable marketplaces of the real world.
But why does this journal matter now more than ever?
The Innovation Imperative
Consider the concept of Innovation. It is a buzzword often thrown around in boardrooms, yet within the pages of this journal, it is dissected and demystified. The journal explores the alchemy of turning raw ideas into tangible value. It asks the tough questions: How do Nigerian SMEs leverage fintech to bypass traditional banking hurdles? How does organizational culture stifle or spark creativity? The answers found here are not just academic exercises; they are survival guides for the modern economy.
The Entrepreneurial Spirit
Entrepreneurship is the heartbeat of any developing economy, and the FUOYE Journal captures that rhythm perfectly. It chronicles the journey of the risk-takers—the "crazy ones" who build empires out of nothing. From analyzing the psychology of the startup founder to mapping out sustainable business models for Sub-Saharan Africa, the journal positions entrepreneurship not just as a career path, but as a tool for national development and poverty alleviation.
Management Reimagined
And what of Management? In the context of this publication, management is no longer about rigid hierarchies. It is about agility, emotional intelligence, and strategic foresight. The journal delves into how leaders can navigate the turbulent waters of the 21st century, managing diverse teams and remote workforces while maintaining ethical standards in a complex corporate landscape.
A Call to the Visionaries
Whether you are a seasoned academic, a policy maker drafting the next economic blueprint, or a budding entrepreneur looking for your "eureka" moment, the FUOYE Journal of Management, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship offers a compass.
It is more than a collection of papers; it is a manifesto for the future. It reminds us that while the challenges of our time are great, the power of human ingenuity—when properly managed and innovatively applied—is greater.
