The book critically reviews, analyses and discusses the:-  

  • Addressing the increased extremism, fundamentalism, and still the ever increasing now lack of tolerance and forbearance in the Arab workforce, Author Majid Al Suleimany presents The Arab Manager! The Call! Context and Perspectives – Arabian Management Series.
  •  In three parts, the book concentrates on the management styles and aspects of the companies located in the Arabian Gulf Cooperation Council that encompasses Oman, UAE – United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.
  •  In deep self-analysis and in consciousness, it critically looks into and assesses any changes in particular – if any – in Arab Management – post The Arab Spring Uprisings that shook the countries in the region post January 2011 – after the First Arab Spring Uprisings in Tunisia with the self-immolation of Mohamed Buazizi in Tunisia.
  •  A frank, honest, open and call-a-spade-a-spade no punch-spared, no barrels held stuff and no frills play book exposing the ever increasing lack of ethics, principles, professionalism and tolerance in the workplaces.
  • With now ever more increased radicalisation, extremism and fundamentalising of the Offices environment and in similar to the overall similar fast changing facts of the ground in the region.
  • A Tell All As It Is! In outlooks, approaches and focuses still prevalent and dominant.
  • It looks into the future in Prophecy and Prediction of what is expected and what is to come – immediately now, in the short term and in the future.
  • Changes in the Arab Management aspects (if any!) – post the Arab Spring Uprisings from January 2011 onwards.
  • The far more and ever increased and widening divide between The Old Guards and The New Younger Graduates Intakes and Generation
  • Lessons that have still not been learnt despite all the changes in the MENA Region in Arab Spring Uprisings.
  • Still the ever ‘Ostrich Head in the ground’ – ‘Hard of Hearing’ and Push the dirt under the carpet’ Management approaches – especially from the local environments, focuses and outlooks!
  • The ever faster growing radicalization of the local staff – especially The Youth and in particular.
  • Still some misbehaving expatriates – and the old guards locals!
  • Unhappy, dissatisfied local staff
  • Still more poor treatment of staff, especially by some Expatriate Management
  • Still the ever more increasing extremism and fundamentalism in the offices

Still More: –

  • Rapid changes in The Arab Office Environment showing radicalization, extremism and fundamentalism of The Society!
  • Predicted and was an Omen of The Arab Spring uprisings!
  • An earnest prayer and call to The Leadership to have read this book! Anyway, I am not the person that likes to say – again and again – I told you so!
  • My Third Arab Management Book.
  • Suffice also to say that despite 6 years later things at the work front – its surroundings and atmosphere has just gone more bad and stale – on the verge of the precipice, decadence, malaise and associated – just like that cinder fire burning intensely underground before it erupts.

About The Book!

THUMBNAIL_IMAGE[1]

For a long time now, I have been putting off the idea of writing this book – though it had been on my mind for a long time now. The mere idea of writing this book scared me to bits and pieces – for many valid and pertinent reasons. As Arabs, work is worshipped (Islamic Religion calls on us to respect work like as if it is in praying).

We are also brought up to be polite, courteous and decent (at least a majority of us). Abrupt, ugly, rudeness and distort are discouraged. Also it is not easy to say NO – as part of the culture, customs, traditions and heritage. So what went wrong here – especially in Management circles?

Why are we behind the rest of the world, despite all our riches and resources? I hope you will enjoy the book. I have tried to be as frank, open, forthright, honest, sincere and genuine as I can – as Readers who know me can give credence and credibility to me and will vouch and authenticate my works.

It is a no punch-spared, no barrels held stiff, no frills – play but to be as frank, open and honest as possible – so it can be a learning process for this generation and others to come in the future. I have not spared even myself, so there is just for it to be honest, sincere, frank, forthright, genuine and hard hitting – sparing no one!

Just No One!
