Synopsis
More than a decade ago, "Producing Useful Knowledge for Organizations "called attention to the most fundamental challenge facing schools in business, management, and administration: to foster communication, collaboration, and partnerships between the academic and practitioner communities in order to identify and solve real-world problems. Today, business schools are at last engaging in this recurring dialogue and the reissue of this classic collection provides a valuable and provocative source for research program development and academic program redesign.The contributors--which include many of the leading management scholars and practitioners--explore conceptual approaches and research strategies, examine the differences in the perspective of academics and practitioners, and suggest ways in which academic institutions may be redesigned to encourage the production of useful knowledge.
