Abstract

This is a conceptual article located in the discourses of indigeneity, post-colonialism and critical management studies in which we seek to renew interest in MÄ ori management as a distinctive form of management within Aotearoa New Zealand. We discuss defining MÄ ori management and MÄ ori organisations and their relevance for today's organsiations in New Zealand and internationally. We examine differences and similarities between Western and MÄ ori management in terms of the four functions of management adapted from principles first proposed by Fayol in 1949. We propose a theoretical model of MÄ ori management and discuss the implications of MÄ ori management for management research, policy and practice.
