University of Nairobi AIBUMA 2019 Call For Papers
AIBUMA@10 will address the new realities. It does not matter if you are a practitioner, student, a hustler, a sonko, or high flyer. It does not matter if you live in leafy suburb or concrete jungle. It does matter if you are in HR, economics, operations , accounting , finance , marketing, supply chain or even interdisciplinary; we want you to share the new realities of the 21st century. How has it changed your work place, the processes, relationships, hiring, CEO’s power? What are the opportunities presented by the new reality? What are your fears? You can extrapolate that to the past or the future.
Our theme is “Managing 21st Century Realities“
Our Sub-themes are:
- Interconnectedness and Artificial Intelligence – how far can we go?
- Empowered workers- What does it all mean to managers and boards
- Rise of individualism- do we need a countervailing force?

- Interdisciplinary thinking- is that the new normal?
