    Scholars have recently made a clarion call for microfoundations in the field of strategic management. While there have been significant conceptual and some empirical advances, there is also much debate and confusion about what microfoundations are and what a potential microfoundations program of research might entail and look like. Presenters will discuss microfoundations as a lens for strategic management from different perspectives, ranging from psychology and human capital to intra- and inter-firm knowledge networks. Presenters will also unearth implications for theoretical and empirical research, management education, and managerial practice.
