Managers and Researchers Tackle the World’s Most Challenging Problems

Description

As wicked problems—such as poverty, pandemics, climate change, and species extinction—become increasingly urgent, researchers have found a new way to collaborate with managers to develop sustainable business approaches, according to an Academy of Management Learning Article.

To tackle wicked problems, innovators need a new approach to innovation. Innovators need to shift from linear cause-and-effect thinking to systems thinking. But few know how to do this. So we have assembled researchers and managers from different sectors and disciplines to innovate the innovation process.
