Social Politics and Business in Africa

Today’s business environment is turbulent, fast, and constantly changing.  It’s a complex environment with many variables woven together that creates business.  Africa is no different.  It has its own set of complexities that dynamically impact the business environment.  My firm, Conceptualee, has started research to help navigate those dynamics more fluidly.  One of the areas of research is the dynamics of social politics.  Our topic, “Social Politics in Business in Africa,” was chosen as a poster session at the Duke Political Networks 2010 conference.

The poster provides a stratospheric view of the evolving dynamic themes on economic development of the South African Development Community based on a historical and political streams.  This is just a starting point for an ongoing dialogue about how to increase economic opportunity even within the constraints of current systems.
