Its membership is comprised of academics\, students\, and practitioners in all regions of Africa and the diaspora. In 2016\, AFAM became an affiliate of the Academy of Management (AOM)\, and in 2020 AFAM became a member of the International Federation of Scholarly Associations of Management (IFSAM). AFAM believes management knowledge can make a significant contribution to productivity and prosperity of Africa. Several studies have identified the inadequate state of management research and scholarship about Africa relative to other regions of the world. Our mission is to help close this gap by promoting research and education about management and organizations in Africa. This includes the mentoring of doctoral students\, guiding and developing junior faculty\, building collaborative networks among scholars\, and advocating interest and focus on Africa internationally. Since its founding\, AFAM has held seven (7) successful international conferences in San Antonio\, TX\, USA in 2011\, at the University of Botswana in 2014\, Strathmore Business School in Nairobi\, Kenya in 2016\, Addis Ababa University in Ethiopia in 2018\, Lagos Business School in Nigeria in 2020\, the German University in Cairo in 2023\, and Stellenbosch University in 2024. AFAM has an indexed journal\, Africa Journal of Management (AJOM)\, published since 2015 by Taylor & Francis.
