African-Centred Management Education

Abdulai believes that, like Asian economies, Africa can sustain its current growth and development by combining its abundant natural resources with its human capital to attain economic development. In African-Centred Management Education he explains how this will require an African cadre of well-trained managers at the helm of both private and public sector institutions. Management education will play a significant role but it cannot be effective by mimicking the West in the programmes it delivers. It must come up with innovative and relevant pedagogy that will address the special challenges that the continent faces and deliver an African-centred management education.
