Doing business in African countries or emerging economies requires a different set of management skills than doing business with developed nations, or nations in other parts of the developing world. This new title meets the growing requirements of business schools and senior students to apply and adapt generic management principles to real African circumstances, to assess the risks and returns confidently, so that as practitioners, they can do business effectively. The purpose of the book is to cover management principles which are addressed in any MBA or Executive Education or Management course, with reference to Africa.
This book investigates how generic management principles must be adapted to the unique economic, social, and political landscapes of African markets. Author J. Luiz provides a framework for students and practitioners to navigate the complexities of emerging economies by bridging the gap between traditional MBA curricula and the specific operational realities found within African nations. The text aims to equip readers with the analytical tools necessary to assess risks and returns while fostering effective business practices in diverse regional contexts.
