Something about Ubuntu theory


Ubuntu theory talks about justice and equality among people this is why we should look into this theory and learn about it because we have to learn how to treat people and how to behave.

This theory was perfectly explained by Nelson Mandela and in southafrica is a perfect example nowadays because all the people can live together and it is not as it was almost 20 years ago when the apartheid that black people could not be sharing anything with white people. After mandela became president he started teaching people how not to be resentfull because of the way they were treated before and because racism is always going to exist.
Ubuntu theory can help organisations and employees because everybody is going to be treated the same way and this is why if there is less power distance communication between each other should be easier and more informal.

Ubuntu, as explained by Bishop Desmond Tutu:
Ubuntu is a concept that we have in our Bantu languages at home. Ubuntu is the essence of being a person. It means that we are people through other people. We cannot be fully human alone. We are made for interdependence, we are made for family. When you have ubuntu, you embrace others. You are generous, compassionate. If the world had more ubuntu, we would not have war. We would not have this huge gap between the rich and the poor. You are rich so that you can make up what is lacking for others. You are powerful so that you can help the weak, just as a mother or father helps their children. This is God's dream.”
