Course description and structure
Course content
There is a growing demand for impact-driven management and organization theory (Reinecke et al., 2022; Wickert et al., 2021) and engaged scholarship (Ergene et al., 2021; Sharma & Bansal, 2020; Van de Ven, 2007) to address societal grand challenges (Ferraro et al., 2015; George et al., 2016; Gümüsay et al., 2022). In this seminar, we read articles on grand challenges and desirable futures to explore and engage with this growing body of scholarship. The course is open to interdisciplinary perspectives and doctoral scholars should be comfortable engaging in critical and appreciative discussions of journal articles including issues such as theoretical positioning, research design, methods, and overall contributions. For grading, doctoral scholars are encouraged to submit a working paper or proposal related to the course content.
