Making research that matters to society – insights from two Academy of Management award winners
In the run-up to the Academy of Management (AOM) annual meeting (https://www.aom.org/events/annual-meeting/) taking place later this month, we're highlighting the global influence of the University of Exeter Business School's research community with a special podcast featuring two of our Distinguished Research Professors: Professor Ronit Kark (https://experts.exeter.ac.uk/32843-ronit-kark) (Bar-Ilan University), and former President of the Academy of Management Professor Herman Aguinis (https://business.gwu.edu/herman-aguinis) (George Washington University).
Together, they received last year's Academy of Management's Organisational Behaviour Division Societal Impact Award (https://ob.aom.org/obthrive/awards/career-awards/societal-impact-award), which recognises research that has made a meaningful difference beyond academia. In the episode, Professor Ilke Inceoglu from the Exeter Centre for Leadership (https://www.exeter.ac.uk/research/centres/excl/) asks Ronit and Herman what it really means for research to have societal impact. They discuss how researchers can address pressing real-world challenges without compromising academic rigour, why impact begins with asking important questions, and how translating research for practitioners, policymakers and wider audiences is becoming an essential part of scholarship.
