The Role of Africa Journal of Management in Decolonizing Management and Organization Studies
In this paper, we discuss the role of journals in decolonizing management and organization knowledge. We illustrate that role by using the Africa Journal of Management (AJOM), a publication of the Africa Academy of Management (AFAM). AJOM was deemed critical to decolonizing knowledge about and in Africa, the context where the colonial enterprise wreaked havoc on all sectors of African societies, from political structures, commerce, and culture to…
Ethnic Obligation and Deviant Behavior: A Dynamic Moral Economy Perspective
Benevolence and Negative Deviant Behavior in Africa: The Moderating Role of Centralization
HRM in Northern Africa
This chapter reviews historical, institutional, governance, business environment, competitiveness, human development, and demographic factors influencing human resource management (HRM) in Algeria, Egypt, Libya, and Tunisia. Based on case studies, examples are provided of how reactions to similar contexts can produce very different strategic HRM outcomes. The authors conclude with a discussion of the implications and challenges of HRM research in…
Strategic Followership
The concept of followership is not new, to the extent that it has been around since the beginning of time. In the organizational literature, followership (a complementary role to leadership) was ignor
Theoretical Perspectives of Strategic Behavior
T he diversity and frequency of major organizational problems lead some scholars to consider organizations as “ailing” institutions that need some cure. The problems tend to drive organizations toward failure. When the problems are resolved, the organization is “healed.” Followers have been implicated in both “ailing” and “healing” conditions of organizations. As I discuss in this chapter, followers can contribute to restoring or advancing the st…
Advancing Research Methodology in the African Context: Techniques, Methods, and Designs
Bibliographic Analysis and Strategic Management Research in Africa
Purpose To expose strategic management scholars in Africa, particularly graduate students and new faculty members, to bibliometrics, a fast-growing approach for examining the impact of individual and collective scholarly. Design/methodology/approach We review the bibliographic analysis approach by discussing its origin, development, and process. We then advance to a dynamic multilevel model that can be used to examine strategic management contrib…
Dynamic Analysis and Strategy in Africa Management
Purpose My purpose is to describe for strategic management scholars in Africa, particularly graduate students and new faculty members, dynamic analysis and its significance in the African context so as to assist in the study of dynamic phenomena. Design/methodology/approach I discuss various types and methods of dynamic analysis. Dynamic analysis has been used extensively in such fields as cognitive psychology, social psychology, and management i…
Experimenting with Resource Strategy: Experimental Analysis and Strategic Human Resources Management Research in Africa
Purpose We discuss how experimental analysis can be integrated into strategic human resources management (SHRM) research in Africa so as to develop theory and value principles to guide executives. Design/methodology/approach The model we propose – experiment-based SHRM – is predicated on the use of experimental approaches to demonstrate the value of SHRM and to derive principles that guide research and practice in Africa. Findings We illustrate h…
Management Research in Africa: Past, Present and Future
Management knowledge has not only infl uenced wealth, innovation and performance of individuals and groups (Romer 1993; Wenger and Snyder 2000), it also accounts for differences in national development and corporate growth (Romer 1998). One could further assert that the quality of management knowledge is critical for the transformation of the developmental state of most countries in Africa (Nkomo 2011). Sustainable production of management knowle…
Managing Organizational Behavior in the African Context
Managing Organizational Behavior in an African Context discusses management and organization science theories as they apply within the social, cultural and economic contexts in which organizations operate in Africa. The first organizational behavior book to cover the entire continent, it uses the findings of OB studies to establish a conceptual foundation, then explores how those topics apply in Africa's unique business environment. This integrat…
Cross-cultural experience, strategic motivation and employer hiring preference: An exploratory study in an emerging economy
The relationship between self-complexity, strategic motivation, and organizational processes such as staffing seems lacking in the human resources management and organizational behavior (OB) literatures. In two studies we examined the self-complexity of potential employees with and without cross-cultural experience as determinant of preferences of employers mediated by strategic motivations of organizations. We found in a sample of 40 organizatio…
