This Professional Development Workshop (PDW) seeks to introduce Egyptological methods for management and organization scholars. As management history becomes centered in the management and organization field, historical methods such as Egyptology can be useful to understand markets, organizations, innovation, and other management-related activities, processes, and systems in Africa. As a result, the Egyptologists in this session will share insight on not only the historical role of Egyptology in understand management and organization in Africa but also the strategies, tactics, and processes of conducting research that is based on Ancient Egypt (i.e., Egyptology). The goal of the PDW is to introduce hitherto unfamiliar methods that can be used in management and organization research to generate knowledge that transforms not only Africa but the world.
