This volume of Advanced Series in Management traces the origins,
development, and key themes of the business practices of Nigeria's
south-eastern Igbos including apprenticeships, entrepreneurial
clusters, sales practices, conflict management, talent recruitment,
indigenous financial practices, locally-generated venture capital,
family businesses, and succession planning. The Igbo Traditional
Business School (I-TBS) is not a conventional academic institution
as it operates outside the classroom. Though without a library, or
even an address, its tradition of lifelong entrepreneurial learning
is an important area to explore. At a time when there is increased
interest in Africa-centric business models, it is valuable to
consider sustainable business prototypes built on established
cultural practices, norms, and values. Academics will find the
examination of innovative I-TBS business practices, a valuable
contribution to sustainable development discourse in Africa and
frontier markets. Practitioners and policymakers will gain insights
into the unique practices of an indigenous entrepreneurship system
in an African context, with implications for socioeconomic
advancements.
