Theory development in business and management is the ongoing process of producing, confirming, applying and adapting theory for addressing contemporary practical problems. It is a critical, yet often daunting task for new researchers because it requires making the logic of intellectually rigorous theory-building process explicit and accessible.

By the end of the workshop, attendees will:
- Learn about characteristics of a ‘good’ theory and different theory types
- Explore different approaches to and tools for theory building process
- Learn to select and apply theory building approaches in hands-on exercises
