It argues that modern nations can be seen as macro-tribes, while tribes represent micro-nations. Consequently, if there is a national obligation, there can also be a tribal obligation. This thought-provoking book, authored by Dr. Zoogah, explores the psychological dimensions of these obligations and their impact on individuals, organizations, and societies. By adopting a psychological lens, Ethnos Oblige offers a novel theoretical framework to understand why individuals behave the way they do, both in professional and non-professional contexts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book's central theme revolves around management practices informed by extensive empirical evidence from diverse sources across Africa. It examines the cultural context through the lenses of various ethnic groups, shedding light on the enduring legacies of colonialism as manifested in post-colonial behaviors across different industrial and cultural sectors. Dr. Zoogah presents groundbreaking findings on the drivers of ethnic identity and their associated contingencies, along with practical suggestions for organizational implications in employee relations, organization behavior, institutional entrepreneurship, and overall business strategy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEthnos Oblige: Theory and Evidence is a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and practitioners interested in understanding the complex dynamics of ethnicity, national identity, and organizational behavior. It provides a comprehensive examination of the factors that shape individual and collective behaviors, offering insights into the potential for positive outcomes as well as the challenges associated with managing ethnic diversity in today's globalized world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 426g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 160 x 238 x 18 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781838675165\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baniyelme D.Zoogah","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":43161938690298,"sku":"9781838675165","price":68.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646329498056_book.jpg?v=1646979775","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/ethnos-oblige-theory-and-evidence-9781838675165","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
