Three Different Approaches to Impact: Translating, Cocreating, and Performing
反思管理研究对实践的影响，提出翻译、共创和表演三种路径，强调研究者与管理者共同面向未来才能产生真正影响。
In 1843, Søren Kierkegaard said, “ It is perfectly true, as philosophers say, that life must be understood backwards. But they forget the other proposition, that it must be lived forwards.” Management researchers are often attracted to the business and society domain because of a desire to impact management practice to create a better world. However, they often do not have the impact that they hope, because researchers tend to rely on historical data, but managers seek insights that inform future actions. In this commentary, we describe our impact journey in three distinct moments in time. In the last one, both researchers and managers live forward.
