    LMSSSA2008 will provide an opportunity to hear and present academic work that can build and inform good management practice in Sub-Sahara Africa. Emphasis will be upon indigenous African approaches, dissemination of best practice information, and discussions of the values and pitfalls of emulating Western practice.

    The conference will provide opportunities for developing less experienced researchers in groups and networks.

    Selected papers from the proceedings will be published as an edited book. Proceedings will be published via a CD with an ISSN.

    We encourage contributors to submit conceptual approaches and empirical findings around topics concerning African organizations. This includes leadership, management, and allied areas such as marketing, operations, organizational behavior, and human resources.  In addition to competitive papers, some presentations will be by invited speakers.  You are invited to immediately submit a two page proposal for a round-table discussion, workshop, or symposium. All topics must broadly relate to management and/or leadership in Sub-Sahara Africa.

    Please submit your competitive paper/session full submission electronically to lmsssa2008@yahoo.com . If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us via this email address.
