Leadership training for improved quality in a post‐colonial, multicultural society

Abstract

States that the implementation of dynamic leadership in an environment of social transition is a complex exercise. Defines those aspects of colonial heritage which have had an impact on initiatives to encourage more proactive and outward‐looking leadership styles. Continues by showing how the multi‐cultural composition of the population influences the acceptance of modern leadership practices. Discusses the difficulties encountered in leadership training programmes and the strategies needed to overcome these. Is based on findings in Mauritius.
