First published in 1998, this volume is designed to explore the requisite knowledge, skills and drive which both prospective and practising managers need to possess in order to discharge the duties of the managerial job in an effective manner, as well as contribute meaningfully to the long-term success and survival of their organisations. In other words, the book is an exposition of the "dos and don’ts" and the "nuts and bolts" of the managerial world. To make the book more useful to the reader, management theory and practice are simultaneously discussed, and a glossary of important management terms and concepts used in the text is provided toward the end of the book.

The debates over what African economic integration and development actually entails continue across international economic organizations, national governments and NGOs. Despite the glare of media attention and the position this issue has on international political agendas, few comprehensive accounts exist that fully examine why this process will be inevitable in the 21st century and how integration of national economies can be attuned to attaining the socio-economic goals and aspirations of member-countries. This book addresses this problem. It combines theory with application, enumerating the imperatives and initiatives governments will be forced to confront; providing insights for educators and students in African development, for policy makers in African governments, and for inter-governmental organizations.
