In all organizations past events, even if they are unique or at least very unlikely to recur, have strength beyond their ambition. In terms of NCA Theory they have persistent influence and therefore are durable actors in the network regardless of the presence of human actors who had direct experience. The crisis in education of March 2020 will never unenroll from our network of management education. As a result, it will resonate in institutional choices, individuals' decisions and forever ...

We live in a world that emphasize the rational and the objective. We cling dearly to objective facts, rigorous thought and rational decisions. In doing so, we risk losing sight of the internal world and our emotional and intuitive aspects. Understanding our “inner theatre” is essential, but also an uphill challenge, fraught with difficulties and anxieties. In this conversation, Manfred F. R. Kets de Vries explores the essential need to build self-understanding and the difficulty in doing so.

During 2020, the pandemic revealed that topics like care, gender, and vulnerable populations should be addressed seriously. Feminist economists see an opportunity to restructure the economy based on the idea of “care” and not on “profit”. Women as subjects have been particularly harmed during this health crisis, due to the precariousness of their work (most women are in service industries), or because of the burden of care work at home. Dr. Rupa Banerjee proposes to discuss the trajectorie...

Sustainably comes in many forms and exhibits many facets. Virtually all of them have been challenged in the last year. A global pandemic has massively disrupted the world at large, and with it organizations, economies, communities and nations. The vocal cry of populism—already visible before the pandemic—has not quietened. While there is a natural desire for life in a post-pandemic future to return to normal, that is an outcome that isn't possible.We will find a new normal in time. ...
