16^th Congress

Universities in general and management schools in particular are required to demonstrate the ​integrity and value of their work to society. ​While the responsible research movement has made significant inroads in this regard, there remains a lack of awareness and some distrust from external stakeholders in relation to the quality and integrity of the research and education delivered by management schools.​ This round table discussion centres around three key questions; What is responsible management research and how does it contribute to the discipline’s integrity? Do management schools pursue excellence in the way they teach? Is such teaching relevant to ​the society​ that exists today, and the society we wish to create? This session will explore the extent to which ​management research meets the principles of responsible research, ​whether management school teaching and learning practices ​pursue integrity, how we evaluate such integrity and ​how we demonstrate its value to society.
