This paper analyses the dilemma of developing countries in the non-Western world in their struggle to achieve economic and social development. The dilemma results from two opposing pulls that accompany the urge for modernization: the application of new knowledge and technologyfromtheWest and thepreservation of cultural identity, enduring traditional values, and wisdom that have held the society together over the centuries. The analysis is focused on India where the dilemma and the tensions inherent in the transition arequite pronounced. Thedebateover tradition and Westernization isexamined against the background of India'sexposure toWestern ideasthrough its system of higher education. To realizethepotential of management, a shift is proposed fromthepredominantly centralized, bureaucratic model of educational administration to a managerial-professional model that would synthesize Western and indigenous perspectives. Attempts to discover the 'Indianness' of Indian management are reviewed. The concept of leadership is examined in terms of Western theories and compared with the traditional view projected in Indian scriptures. The recent shift in Western management thought is reviewed in terms of its promise for a synthesis with the Eastern perspective. |
