As editors of the book series in Information Age Publishing, USA, Agata Stachowicz-Stanusch, Wolfgang Amann, and myself would like to start a new book project under the working title Advancing African Management Knowledge and Research.
Contributors may come from any social and human science disciplines and are welcome to focus on advancing management knowledge and research from any perspective-the management education challenges to overcome, the required quality improvement processes for continuous improvement in learning outcomes, emic and etic issues impacting knowledge generation and research, the institutional, national, regional policies addressing African Union Agenda 2063 for developing management education as a part of the drive for socio-economic development. We also welcome chapters which offer examples of methods, approaches, tools, and cases which may be used for advancing scholarship, knowledge, and research from an African perspective. Our book will be a great opportunity to look on advancing management knowledge and research in Africa from a multilevel and multicultural perspective.
We would like to invite you to this book project as the author(s) of one chapter and will really appreciate if you join us!
We would like to submit our book for publication by IAP by the end of July 2018.
