Business and management education worldwide continues to be a very popular field of study. Unfortunately, much of African management education is simply repackaged material designed by professionals and scholars in advanced economies. This special issue highlights both the theoretical and the empirical complexities and obstacles that must be overcome in order to advance and develop relevant African management education. We include a proposed model for developing and implementing management education in African focusing on relevance − identifying the unique cultural aspects involved in business and social relations in Africa.
