The Academy of Management Africa Conference will bring Africa�s unique capabilities and needs to the attention of the world�s organization and management scholars and at the same time, provide an opportunity for interested colleagues to collaborate and work on the many interesting theoretical and practical problems presented in Africa.

Much of the time together will be spent exploring and experiencing many of the region�s challenges first hand. Conference participants will spend one and half days of the four day conference "in the field" directly experiencing South Africa and the phenomena that interest them. Four conference themes will orient that exploration.

Paper, panel symposia, and workshop submissions will be accepted through May 15, 2012. Don�t miss your chance to be a part of this exciting program, submit your proposal today!
