Management and Post Colonial Era
Management and Post Colonial Era
Management in the post-colonial era refers to the practices and principles of organizing and
overseeing various aspects of society, such as government, businesses, and institutions, in
countries that have gained independence from colonial rule. The specific nature of
management in the post-colonial era can vary depending on the country and its historical
context, but there are some common themes and challenges that emerged during this period.
Cultural context: Post-colonial management needed to consider the cultural and social context
of the country. Management practices and approaches that were effective in the colonial
period might not necessarily be suitable or acceptable in the new independent nation. Local
cultural values, traditions, and practices had to be taken into account when designing
management systems to ensure they aligned with the aspirations and needs of the local
population.
