Globalization, governance and leadership development in the Middle East
Abstract
The question of whether management culture is universal of society specific has long been debated in the Middle East, with htose who accept the latter suggesting that there may be some characteristics of Arab and Islamic culture that are inimical to business development. Business leaders in the Middle East appear to accept cultural relativist arguments, believing that their values are rooted in their culture and religion.
