From September 25 to September 27, 2024, the International Federation of Scholarly Associations of Management (IFSAM) is holding its 17th online congress, with the theme “New Perspectives and Pathways for Impact in a Precarious World.” The event brings together academics and professionals to discuss the main challenges faced by higher education in the fields of business and management, with an emphasis on the new generation of scholars who stand out in this context.
During the congress, roundtables are addressing various pressures affecting the institutional environment of business schools, highlighting the urgent need to align academic work with the climate crisis and other sustainability issues. The discussions also include innovative topics such as indigenous management and decolonization, challenging traditional approaches and bringing new perspectives to light.
Additionally, the event introduces the IFSAM Futures Academy, a new initiative that promotes knowledge exchange among early-career researchers. This session offers a collaborative learning space, essential for shaping the future of academia.
The congress is a valuable opportunity not only for leaders of academic associations in business and management but also for the entire academic community. The topics discussed are fundamental for those involved in research, education, and practices in business schools, contributing to a deeper understanding of the transformations shaping the future of management education.
