This book considers the new business environment of modern-day
Africa, addressing how management styles must adapt to societal
changes across the continent. As investment in the continent grows
and African businesses begin to look beyond their own borders,
there comes a real need to understand leadership from an
Afro-centric perspective. This book explores the similarities and
differences across African countries, compares them with other
regions, and identifies particular cultural realities that managers
must consider in order to be successful in the new business
environment of modern Africa. Building on their Leadership
Effectiveness in Africa and the African Diaspora (LEAD) research
project, the authors provide an empirical understanding of African
leadership styles and how businesses can harness these more
effectively. Drawing on the African Diaspora's values, beliefs, and
preferences, as well as anecdotal material from African academics
and managers, this book grants a realistic view of leadership in
various African countries including Egypt, Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya,
Tanzania, Uganda, Ethiopia, and South Africa. It will be invaluable
to academics, students, and anyone interested in African and global
business leadership from a non-Western perspective.
