Title: Managing Multi Ethnic Mauritius Multi Ethnic Mauritius management has since long been subject to criticisms. Members of different ethnic groups always blame Government for failure to satisfy their ethnic group requirements. There is often shifting of blames at all levels when things do not work. Forty years have passed since independence and there is the perception that we have failed to build a nation. Most people still put their ethnic identities before their national identities. The few who claim to be Mauritians complain that their demands are rarely met by authorities. In one way or the other the majority of our population is of opinion that leaders are not managing the country effectively. The main aim of this paper is to examine the causes of ethnic tension and ethnic conflict and the extent to which we have been able to manage them. The paper also looks into the management responsibility – more precisely-whether the state really plays its role effectively. The principal observation is that some state stakeholders are not playing their roles effectively. Finally, we come up with a new model of leadership- Global Benchmarker Leader - which is required to manage multi ethnic Mauritius thereby leading towards nation building and its consolidation.
