A Profile of Management — Morocco in the Broader Pan-Arab Context

Gillian Forster

Chapter 4 in The Influence of Islamic Values on Management Practice, 2014, pp 50-80 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter reviews the extant research on the nature of management in Morocco and is the third of the three chapters which identify and explore the theoretical concepts pertinent to the question of how Islamic values influence management practice in Morocco. The purpose of this overview is twofold. First, a review of the extant management research enabled the researcher to better establish the clear potential of her research to contribute to and augment existing knowledge. And second, this view built on the heuristic framework which started to emerge from previous chapters on the cultural context of Morocco, and on the nature, content and application of Islamic values. Because of the paucity of research on management in Morocco, together with the pan-Arab stance of Morocco itself, the literature beyond Morocco dealing with the fourth paradigm (Weir 2003) of Arab management was also explored.
