Management scholarship prioritises theoretical contributions over real-world impact, argues Dr Tima Bansal. With clear evidence that the climate crisis has exceeded planetary boundaries and with many businesses retreating from their net zero carbon commitments, Dr Bansal will imagine instead how business schools might catalyse climate action. Drawing on three decades of research in business sustainability, Dr Bansal will demonstrate why business researchers are uniquely positioned to foster dialogues between corporations, scientists, and policy makers and how they can do so.
Join us for an urgent conversation about reinventing management scholarship for the climate era. This talk will engage researchers across disciplines, academic leaders, and anyone concerned with how universities can better address our most pressing global challenges.
