An African Dutch Management Affair from Sudan

Theo Snijders • Boek • paperback

  • Samenvatting
    An African Dutch Management Affair describes thoughtfully and humorously the Sudanese way of doing business. This book reviews management incidents & accidents, and provides valuable insight on leadership training & consultancy. It reflects on intercultural communication & (mis)perceptions, and also on the electoral circus & secession threat in Sudan. It will inspire local businesspeople, managers, governmental officials and NGO-officers to reflect critically on capacity building, bureaucratic DNA and society. This book may serve too as a mirror for foreigners who idealize that in Sudan (as large as Europe), one can afford thinking big or saving the world. For those planning to live and work there: you better try to see with different eyes from the very start, and be prepared for survival by the drip. Enshallah.

Fragment

‘Somewhere in Holland a Senseo (Philips Electronics’ coffee machine) exploded! Even Philips is off its stroke. In Sudan the economic crisis is striking hard as well. Assignments are cancelled, payments postponed’

‘… 345 mobile phones. A mobile for every manager, the newest handset, plus credit for the duration of the project! Party time for children’s education in 15 Sudanese States…’

‘…In principle it is possible to accept everything that is said about us Double Dutchmen and those Sudanese. So what is the problem?..’

‘Self-evaluation gives the management good indications to improve quality. It will avoid supposedly 500.000 complaints in the governmental sector’

‘… a leadership training for former liberation-army commanders designed to transform them into managers and their army into a civil service organization’
