About the Conference

In Recent days, Artificial Intelligence & Knowledge Processing is playing a vital role in changing most of the sectors’ processes and landscapes. AI has an enormous impact on various automation industries and their functioning converting traditional industries to AI-based factories. New AI algorithms are changing the way business processes and results are analysed for enhancing their business. Knowledge processing is the act of comprehending and then representing human knowledge in data structures; semantic models, which are conceptual diagrams of data as they relate to the real world; and heuristics, which are principles that lead to answers to every AI challenge. Hence, a brainstorming and knowledge
sharing platform to further discuss future developments is essential. The AIKP’22 conference includes all areas of AI research, especially business analytics.  This conference is an initiation by the School of Business, Woxsen University, Hyderabad, India to gather and share knowledge among Undergraduates, Postgraduates, eminent scholars and practitioners.

Call for Experts: Women Empowerment for Diversity and Equality in Business Education in Africa

The Association of African Business Schools (AABS) is currently implementing the project “Promoting Diversity and Equality” and is looking for volunteer experts with relevant experience, especially across African business schools. The project, with the support of the AABS Board-appointed Ad-hoc Committee Members, aims to build greater diversity and gender balance while supporting the
leadership of AABS member schools across the continent.

The objective will be to reduce the gender gap across leadership levels within African business schools, enhance Africa’s ranking in global competitiveness reports on gender equality, and achieve gender balance in decision-making positions. Through a dynamic of cooperation and exchange of ideas and innovative solutions, the core group of experts will help AABS promote a more inclusive environment within its network by providing practical and interactive tools and tips that are tailored for its members’ needs.

About the Conference

What is Responsible Leadership?

Responsible leadership is a leadership approach that addresses responsibilities and accountabilities of business leaders. It is driven by purpose and positive social impact. To reach a complete understanding of responsible leadership, its importance and how it can be implemented to benefit society, we need to establish a number of things. These include:

  • How do we make sense of the concept of responsible leadership globally as well as in the African context?
  • What are the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic for the responsible leadership discourse?
  • What is the relationship between responsible leadership and social innovation?
  • How can organisations develop and nurture responsible leaders internally?
  • How can we establish a dialogue between sectors, co-create best practices and shape pathways and actions towards responsible leadership?

Why We Need This Conference

The Responsible Leadership Reimagined Conference is an event that seeks to address important questions about responsible leadership, and encourage further research and to advance the discussion on responsible leadership in Africa. This will enable us to move towards a common understanding of what responsible leadership is and what it can achieve on the continent.

How You Can Help Us

The submission date for papers closed on 30 November 2021.

The Responsible Leadership Reimagined Conference will be hosted by the Centre for Responsible Leadership Studies (University of Stellenbosch Business School), in collaboration with the Allan Gray Centre for Values-based Leadership (University of Cape Town), the Albert Luthuli Leadership Institute (University of Pretoria) and the Globally Responsible Leadership Initiative.
