2022 “Responsible Research in Management” Award
Sponsored by the Academy of Management Fellows
Co-sponsored by Responsible Research in Business and Management
Announcement of Winners
June 20, 2022
Objectives
The Fellows Group of the Academy of Management recognizes and honors members who have made significant contributions to the science and practice of management. In 2021, the Fellows joined forces with the Community for Responsible Research in Business and Management to sponsor the Responsible Research in Management Award. This annual award recognizes and celebrates recent research that benefits society by producing credible and useful knowledge. Credibility refers to the reliability, validity and trustworthiness of research findings that arise from either inductive or deductive methods, using quantitative and/or qualitative data. Usefulness refers to the potential of research findings to make the world a better place by informing policy and influencing practice.
Selection Process
One hundred and twenty scholarly works published since 2018 were nominated for the 2022 award (click here for the Call for Nominations). They went through a rigorous two-stage review process. First, a committee made up of Academy of Management Fellows reviewed the nominations and identified the short list. Next, the short list was evaluated by a group of executive reviewers. Winners were chosen based on the joint recommendations of the Fellows and the executives. We wish to express our deepest gratitude to 8 sub-committee chairs, 45 academic reviewers, 41 executive reviewers, and three research assistants for their dedication and selfless contributions to this Awards program. (The full list of both the academic and executive reviewers is available here.)
Award Winning Research
We are extremely pleased to honor eight “Winners,” and three “Distinguished Winners” (the list is shown below this announcement). This group of excellent articles and books represents just 10% of the works nominated, reflecting the high standards applied by the reviewers. They are truly the “best of the best” among the recently published management research. These studies exemplify the principles of responsible research, strive for broad and significant societal benefits, and will leave the world a better place by informing policy, improving practice, and advancing theory.
Winners will be honored at an Awards Ceremony and Celebration held at the Academy of Management’s 2022 Annual Meeting on August 6, 4:30-6:00 pm at the Sheraton Hotel.
Our heartfelt congratulations to the authors of these outstanding research publications. We believe their example can inspire the rest of us to infuse more credibility, utility, and societal benefit into our research projects.
Sincerely,
Alan D. Meyer, Chair, AOM Fellows 2022 Responsible Research Award
