Research groups in Management
Research activities in Management are organised around four themes. These reflect key themes within the broad management discipline and provide a platform for developing multi-disciplinary research links, as well as for connecting research with the practice of management. The groupings are:
Within each group members of staff undertake innovative theoretical scholarship, significant empirical research and knowledge exchange activities. This has included national and international inter-disciplinary collaborations, not only with academic researchers, but also policymakers and managers addressing issues ranging from the internationalisation of SMEs through to the impact of technology on consumption.
A distinctive feature of the research across the groups is the cross-over between conceptual and practical dimensions of research. This reflects a concern with the relevance and impact of management research on business and policy communities.
