Inspiring ideas from our academic and industry #EAMThoughtLeaders during Eastern Academy of Management #EAM2024 Conference panel "Forging a #Sustainable Future- Collaborating for Technological #Innovation and #SocialResponsibility" in #Providence thanks to John Harris, Georgia Southern University and Noel Criscione-Naylor, Stockton University Key highlights:1) staying relevant requires mutually beneficial academic-industry partnerships;2) experiential learning is a necessity to provide students relevant technological knowledge/skills to succeed. 📣 Filiz Tabak, Dean, College of Business, University of Mary Washington: “implement an integrative collaborative strategy with long-term vision…innovate by creating experiential learning with themes—and then bring interdisciplinary teams together to achieve common goals” 📣 Mike Grandinetti, Entrepreneur, Innovation Expert, Chief Strategy Officer, Consultant, Harvard University “create entrepreneurial mindsets – we need to stand for who we are for innovation to occur…if you're not using #GenerativeAI, then you’re robbing yourself of the ability to get more done.” 📣 Sage Del Valle, CEO, F&S Digital: “Power struggles happen - be aware- prestige of higher ed is starting to lose its shine –  partnerships increase relevancy so new employees are ready Day 1." 📣 Mary J. Meixell, Dean, College of Business, Johnson & Wales University: “We always have agency - be strategic in planning... choose strategic partners wisely” 📣 Idrees (Lanre) Ajakaiye, CEO, IKL Consulting Group:  “Each person has space to create--speak ‘industry’ language- not everyone speaks ‘academic language”, don’t constrain innovation/creativity – gamify it!” The panel motivated new ideas and critical questions for higher education to continue to build new business #leaders. I kept thinking how universities can and will empower new innovative voices by increasing #technology access, creating opportunities, and investing in #faculty and #student time for learning and #innovation…without fear of consequences: 🎤 How can all business schools be given same access to industry partnerships and technology? 🎤 Who will make sure all schools – students and faculty – have same access/opportunity w/technological advancements? 🎤 How can industry help business schools who have less resources provide quality technological experiences for students? 🎤How will universities invest (time & $$)in faculty learning new technology – knowledge/skills?  #PowerInVoices #Inclusivity Towson University What are your thoughts about leading toward a sustainable future – collaborating for technological innovation and social responsibility”?  Please share below

“The Consulting Trap does a deep dive into how governments have become hooked on private consultancy firms with dire consequences for democratic decision-making, public accountability and accessible public services. Hurl and Werner contend that firms like McKinsey, Accenture, KPMG and Deloitte increasingly take responsibility for core public services, trapping governments in cycles of dependency. Through orchestrating #tax avoidance for the wealthy while engineering austerity for the rest, they show how these firms have created the foundations for the deepening privatization of the public services, further entrenching their power” #consultants #power Manu Caddie

𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐢𝐧 𝐇𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐄𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 Sustainability leadership in higher education is a critical aspect of creating a sustainable future. However, implementing sustainable leadership practices in higher education institutions is not without its challenges. To drive sustainable leadership, institutions can adopt several strategies, including: · 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽: Establish a sustainability committee with representatives from different departments and divisions to collaborate on sustainability initiatives and decision-making. Involving representatives from the faculty, staff, student body, and administration in the committee. · 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁: Using a phased approach to implement sustainability initiatives, starting with a pilot project and gradually scaling up to larger initiatives. Implementing a recycling program in one building and then expanding it to the entire campus. · 𝗖𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗕𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴: Offer training programs on sustainability issues and practices for staff and faculty. Offering workshops on energy efficiency, waste reduction, and sustainable procurement practices. · 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗘𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Set a goal to reduce carbon emissions by a certain percentage over a specific time period, and regularly report on progress towards this goal to stakeholders. · 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆: Implement policies to support gender equity in hiring and promotion, as well as promoting diversity and inclusion in sustainability initiatives by involving women in decision-making processes. · 𝗦𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Develop a sustainability-focused degree program, as well as offering sustainability-focused courses in the existing program and workshops for students and staff. · 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Collaborate with local businesses and organizations to develop sustainability initiatives, as well as engaging with local communities to promote sustainability education and engagement. These are just a few examples of how higher education institutions can adopt strategies to drive sustainable leadership practices and contribute to a sustainable future. #iau #imamabdulrahmanbinfaisaluniversity #leadership #sustainability #SustainabilityLeadership #SustainabilityStrategies #impact #future #growth #development #quality #rankings #SDG #environment #universities #solutions #management #decisions

Excited to share this Cambridge Judge Business School #Insight feature with Shaz Ansari and Yeonji Seo on #reputation management based on our recent Journal of Management https://lnkd.in/eZgYgq3J It is Open Access so free to download. Reputation is a vital organizational resource. “It takes many good deeds to build a good reputation, and only bad one to lose it.” We argue that reputation repair is a strategic imperative, and yet many companies do not heed these wakeup calls to address the root causes when crises emerge. Responses and crises are misaligned and certain events draw executive attention while others do not. Our findings suggest that the reputation-damaging events with the greatest impact on top management aren’t always the largest events or the most recent. Instead, certain historic incidents gradually built up in perceived relevance over time, with discernible patterns emerging which form an eventual tipping point that triggers a major organisational response. We offer insights on the importance of monitoring not just the scale or recency of events but their interconnected nature . We suggests that a deeper understanding of event patterns can better prepare companies for necessary reputational repairs, and more actively manage potential crises.

Round 2 of INSEAD MBA #course "Building gen #AI Products and Business". INSEAD MBAs are just ❤️AMAZING!!!❤️ 👉 The document below highlights seven of the ideas discussed in the INSEAD MBA course, “Building genAI Products and Business” during the March-April 2024 period. 👉 It also desribes some course group projects, highlighting “the 2024 state of AI driven class projects in an MBA program”. 👏 These are projects that would have been unimaginable even a few years ago, and indicate both how far technology has gone and how far MBA education can go. 💹 And it is only 2024…  🚀 Perhaps in a few years the course projects will be even closer to full blown products and businesses, including having virtual executive teams with each member of the team being an AI agent with their own personality, skills, and roles, coded as part of the course project and “hired” in the business... 👉Read a brief summary on the course github page here: https://lnkd.in/ezZJeCPG (need to click "more pages" to see the full doc)

Looking forward to this. Not least because my next book is on startups to exit lifecycle in entrepreneurial media/tech companies (a fairly lively area, eg #Mistral reaching $5 billion in year 1) so it will be great to connect with people in the amazing Oxford entrepreneurial ecosystem.

Aproximately 2/3 of all mergers and acquisitions fail to meet their objectives, due to cultural clashes. Gugin has spent more than 20 years on helping organisations of almost all types with cultural integration after mergers and acquisition, so we have a preety good idea of why it goes wrong. The good news is that most of the reasons for failure can be prevented. The bad news is that most executive teams either don't care or are convinced they have the skills to do it.
