Africa is one of the world’s oldest economies, yet little is known about the wisdom that traditionally guided responsible management, with most work in the field employing Western perspectives. Responsible Management in Africa brings African voices to complement existing knowledge and practice by presenting indigenous values and practices that promote responsible business.From the Zunde Rambo philosophy in managing organisations in Zimbabwe and judicious business applications of Ubuntu and Batho Pele principles in South Africa, to lessons from an intergenerational business in Yorubaland, Nigeria; from Akan management styles and gold trade in ancient Ghana to the impact of acculturation on management in Morocco and Tunisia and the system that fortified responsible business in Uganda, and more, this volume brings African worldviews to the fore of humanism and ethics in management. The chapters present academic perspectives and hands-on applications of approaches to managing responsibly, especially regarding integrating ethical practices into business and assuring sustainability through ethical profitability.Responsible Management in Africa delivers a rich reservoir of indigenous value-narratives based on a well-balanced philosophical anthropology, with the aims of enriching global knowledge, in the philosophy of management and in business ethics, and of contributing much-needed insights for leaders around the world to manage enterprise responsibly, be it public or private sector.

This volume offers a cross-disciplinary exploration of Alasdair MacIntyre's provocative approach to governance, drawing on insights from philosophy, economics, sociology, business ethics, and organizational studies. The chapters explore how MacIntyre’s theory is applied to diverse institutional contexts, including education, medicine, and technology, addressing contemporary challenges in governance and ethical decision-making.Bringing together well-known scholars from the 16th Annual Conference of the International Society for MacIntyrean Enquiry (ISME) at the University of Navarra, this book critically examines the role of governing institutions in shaping practices and traditions. It highlights MacIntyre’s distinction between practices and institutions, addressing how these concepts influence ethical governance, leadership, and community-building in today's complex societal landscapes.Contributors explore key themes such as the development of virtues within institutions, the ethical challenges of artificial intelligence, the moral foundations of education, and the governance of professions like medicine and land management. This volume also engages with contemporary issues, offering practical insights for fostering ethical decision-making and community participation in an increasingly technocratic world.MacIntyre and the Practice of Governing Institutions is an essential resource for scholars of political philosophy, ethics, and governance, as well as for practitioners looking to navigate the ethical challenges posed by modern institutions. By examining how MacIntyre's thought applies to real-world issues, this book provides both theoretical depth and practical strategies for promoting human flourishing through virtuous governance.
