I strongly endorse this book to all.' -Chinwuba Okafor, Professor of Accounting and Strategic Management, University of Benin, Benin City, Nigeria Focusing on both pre-colonial and post-colonial eras, this book aims to cultivate a greater understanding of globalisation processes in the context of leadership behaviour in Africa. Analysing empirical evidence and theoretical frameworks, the author evaluates the role of leaders in the failure of African globalisation and seeks to propose an initiative for change. As emphasis shifts from world control to regional and sub-regional control, the new face of globalisation offers an opportunity for Africa to grow and develop with a new leadership perspective. Presenting servant leadership as a solution to Africa's global failures, this timely book explores the challenges of governance, resource management and regionalisation, and will be of value to anyone interested in the development of Africa as a continent. 410 0$aPalgrave pivot. 606 $aInternational economic integration 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aStrategic planning 606 $aLeadership 606 $aBusiness 606 $aAfrica 606 $aEntrepreneurship 606 $aNew business enterprises 606 $aExecutives$xTraining of 606 $aEmerging Markets and Globalization 606 $aBusiness Strategy and Leadership 606 $aAfrican Business 606 $aEntrepreneurship 606 $aManagement Education 615 0$aInternational economic integration. 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 0$aStrategic planning. 615 0$aLeadership. 615 0$aBusiness. 615 0$aAfrica. 615 0$aEntrepreneurship. 615 0$aNew business enterprises. 615 0$aExecutives$xTraining of. 615 14$aEmerging Markets and Globalization. 615 24$aBusiness Strategy and Leadership. 615 24$aAfrican Business. 615 24$aEntrepreneurship. 615 24$aManagement Education. 676 $a303.4826 700 $aAmah$b Okechukwu Ethelbert$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0849802 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337800003321 996 $aGlobalisation and Leadership in Africa$92048325 997 $aUNINA
