TACKLING CHALLENGING MANAGEMENT (EDUCATION) PROBLEMS THROUGH RESEARCH: AN AMLE “IMPACT”

This event showcased pathways through which researcher engagement with wider stakeholders can improve practice at work or in management education. At the same time, the event provided a forum in which academics can learn from practitioners about current challenges at work (and where perhaps academics can offer solutions).

The event included keynote speeches by Andrew Hill (senior business writer at the Financial Times and consulting editor, FT Live) and Elizabeth Heichler (editorial director at MIT Sloan Management Review). Four AMLE authors shared their experiences concerning engagement efforts with practice before and/or following the publication of their articles. Also Professor André Spicer contributed a “Dean’s” perspective on impact to the event.
