摘要

鉴于对非洲独特的领导力理论和模型的需求，我利用非洲历史、人类学和哲学账户的洞察力，提出了一种本土领导力:伙伴式领导力。它基于古代(尼罗河谷的凯美特文士)和现代(尼日尔河谷的吟游诗人或格罗戈)非洲传统的shemsw原则，其中包括ma和sebait。该模型提出同伴状态(体质、注意力和相互关系)和行为过程(沟通、参与和合作)，它们通过复杂的过程影响有组织的行动，从而产生群体和个人的结果。讨论了该模型对非洲组织尤其是世界各地的领导理论和实践的影响。

Companionate leadership: A shemswian perspective

ABSTRACT Given the calls for theories and models of leadership unique to Africa, I leverage insight from African historical, anthropological, and philosophical accounts to propose one type of indigenous leadership: companionate leadership. It is based on ancient (Kemetic scribes of the Nile Valley) and modern (bards or griots of the Niger Valley) African traditional principles of shemsw which entailed maât and sebait. The model proposes companionate states (constitution, attention, and co-relation) and behavioral processes (communication, engagement, and cooperation) that through complex processes affect organized action, shemsw, to yield group and individual outcomes. Implications of the model for theory and practice of leadership in African organizations especially but also around the world are discussed.

期刊介绍： The beginning of the Twenty First Century has witnessed Africa’s rise and progress as one of the fastest growing and most promising regions of the world. At the same time, serious challenges remain. To sustain and speed up momentum, avoid reversal, and deal effectively with emerging challenges and opportunities, Africa needs better management scholarship, education and practice. The purpose of the Africa Journal of Management (AJOM) is to advance management theory, research, education, practice and service in Africa by promoting the production and dissemination of high quality and relevant manuscripts. AJOM is committed to publishing original, rigorous, scholarly empirical and theoretical research papers, which demonstrate clear understanding of the management literature and draw on Africa’s local indigenous knowledge, wisdom and current realities. As the first scholarly journal of the Africa Academy of Management (AFAM), AJOM gives voice to all those who are committed to advancing management scholarship, education and practice in or about Africa, for the benefit of all of Africa. AJOM welcomes manuscripts that develop, test, replicate or validate management theories, tools and methods with Africa as the starting point. The journal is open to a wide range of quality, evidence-based methodological approaches and methods that “link” “Western” management theories with Africa’s indigenous knowledge systems, methods and practice. We are particularly interested in manuscripts which address Africa’s most important development needs, challenges and opportunities as well as the big management questions of the day. We are interested in research papers which address issues of ethical conduct in different African settings.
