The challenge of management development in the Baltic States in the twenty‐first century

Abstract

One of the most important transitions going on in the newly independent nations of the former Soviet Union involves training managers and their associates who are working to establish a free market‐based economy within a pluralistic democratic setting. This article highlights the problems and prospects of this transformation, using the Baltic states as an example. Its purpose is twofold. It presents insight for those who want to understand the changes better. It supports the efforts of those who plan and implement managerial development programs in these settings.
