EnANPAD 2023: Pre-event highlights

The EnANPAD 2023 pre-event was held online and centered around the theme “Rigor, relevance and impact in management research.” The pre-event was open to the general public and took place on September 19 – 20. 

ANPAD’s Annual Meeting, EnANPAD, has been organizing pre-events since 2021. In 2023, the pre-event theme mirrors that of the main event. It was chosen after a thorough discussion on research and scientific production integrity, along with the associated challenges. Rigor, relevance and impact were identified as critical factors for achieving high-quality academic research. 

The opening session was led by ANPAD’s President, Professor Alketa Peci (FGV EBAPE), ANPAD’s Scientific Director pro-tempore, Professor Emílio José Montero Arruda Filho (PPAD/UNAMA and UFPA), and the pre-event coordinator, Professor Vinicius Andrade Brei (PPGA/EA/UFRGS). 

The pre-event featured four round tables, each addressing  the following topics: 

• Truth and the replication crisis in management research; 
• With great power comes great responsibilities: the importance of rigor in conducting impactful research; 
• What teachers and researchers need to know about open science; and 
• Enhancing the conditions of vulnerable groups through rigorous research: contributions from the field of administration. 

As in previous years, the Doctoral Consortium was an integral part of the EnANPAD pre-event program. Over the course of two days, 59 topics related to ANPAD’s academic divisions were discussed.
