Indigenous knowledge systems are a profound contribution to our understanding of management and organizations but have long been overlooked and repressed. Through a wide array of chapters, which span five continents and five core concepts of: stories, place, politics, communities, and business, this book showcases Indigenous approaches to, and frameworks for, good management, organization and entrepreneurship.
A diverse collection of contributions includes chapters on Indigenous self-determination, organization studies, allyship, organizing and resistance, cultural appropriation and community-based enterprises from a global community of scholars spanning New Zealand, Australia, Peru, Brazil, India, Bali, the Philippines, Ghana, Greenland, Canada, the US and beyond.
Written and edited by experts in the field, this book is essential reading for students, academics, and private, public and third sector leaders in management, organization and entrepreneurship.
