Reviews

Responsible Management in Africa offers such an insightful and fascinating 'glocal' perspective. It reveals the topic's local roots on the African continent, from which we can learn much for responsible management globally. -- Oliver Laasch, Ph.D., Senior Lecturer in Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Associate Editor, Academy of Management Learning and Education (ABS4*), Alliance Manchester Business School, UK

Responsible Management in Africa offers such an insightful and fascinating 'glocal' perspective. It reveals the topic's local roots on the African continent, from which we can learn much for responsible management globally. -- Oliver Laasch, Ph.D., Senior Lecturer in Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Associate Editor, Academy of Management Learning and Education (ABS4*), Alliance Manchester Business School, UK A few years ago, we witnessed the consolidation of many African Business schools and the creation of some new ones. On that occasion, there was a raging discussion: Should African business schools follow the paths set by further advanced Western business Schools? Should they rather strive to creatively develop some new, original, peculiarly African concepts and points of view? Could “ubuntu” and other traditional concepts be considered important elements contributing to the growth of African and non-African businesses? Maybe! The contribution of Dr. Kemi Ogunyemi and her co-editors in their new book is a powerful claim and statement that the second and third options are not only viable but very much alive and productive. The contributions give a deep insight to the treasures of indigenous wisdom and how they contribute to growth and development. -- Lluis Renart, PhD, Emeritus professor of Marketing, Founder and first director of IESE Africa, Initiative IESE Business School, University of Navarra, Spain.
