Webinar synopsis
The term, “polycrisis”, has gained popularity in our lexicon as the world is beset by a multitude of overlapping crisis with “grave, long-term challenges” (https://cascadeinstitute.org/research/polycrisis/). These challenges include generative Artificial Intelligence, rising geopolitical tensions, techno-nationalism, multipolarization and resultant fracturing of the globalized economy, overall aging of the workforce in many industrialized countries, widening income inequalities (both across and within countries), climate change, and so on.
At the same time, these challenges can present tremendous opportunities for IB research as well as practice. This seminar (presentation) seeks to discuss the implications of these challenges and opportunities for IB Research in the context of my own research agenda and journals, such as the Journal for International Business Studies, for example.
This event is part of the annual BAM Academic Affairs of Conference and Capacity Building (AACCB) Masterclasses.
Our series of BAM Masterclasses are delivered by prominent management theorists from across the globe each year. These online webinars are an exceptional learning experience, revealing how top academics think about the world, what inspires them, and how they develop and apply their ideas. Where do influential ideas come from? What leads to them to being widely taken up?
During the Masterclasses, our highly renowned speakers explain how their academic and intellectual journeys begun, and how they developed as influential academics in management. There are also opportunities to ask questions and engage directly with the speakers.
