ENGAGEMENT, RELEVANCE, AND BEAUTIFUL ARTIFACTS (29 June 2022)

Description

Andrew van de Ven passed away but there are other scholars out there that push the idea of engaged scholarship further. One of these is Michael Rosemann from Australia. He joins us to share his thoughts about whether papers or researchers should be relevant, why impact can be an intrinsic motivation, and why our research artifacts should not only be valid and reliable but also beautiful.
