Africa needs more good managers at all levels. Good management is key to getting things done. A staggering amount of money is wasted for lack of such skills, yet the development community does not adequately address the need to nurture locally relevant management schools. GBSN (www.gbsn.org) and MSWC (www.mswconline.org) are pleased to collaborate with the INSEAD Africa Initiative for impact in this important aspect.
