Repositioning Business Education And Practice In Nigeria
Keywords:
improve ethics and attitude to work, functional, Growth, Significance of business administrationAbstract
Business eduxation, like any other field of study has its own guiding principles/
concept and procedures. This conceptual framework however, was not indigenous
to Africa or Nigeria but rather was imported mostly from Britain and the United
States of America. Therefore, there is need to constantly evaluate how these
principles/concepts suit our local situation. However, the various institutions of
business administration and management studies lagged behind in responding
appropriately to the quality and types of management needed by the nation. The
identified indicators of the tag are what this paper critically examined.
