About this Event
How can management scholarship address the profound challenge of governing the long-term future in an age of climate emergency, technological disruption, and radical uncertainty? We are adept at managing the tangible assets of the present, but lack the institutions to steward the intangible, contested and fragile domain of possibilities that constitute our collective future - the “future commons.”
In her inaugural lecture, Professor Juliane Reinecke reflects on her journey as a scholar of business sustainability, collective action, temporality, and commons governance. Looking across her research from conflict minerals to melting glaciers suggests that safeguarding the future commons demands new collaborative institutions, reimagined metrics, and governance arrangements that can sustain action across organizational, societal and temporal boundaries.
Ultimately, this requires a parallel evolution in management scholarship itself. Professor Reinecke will call for a move from retrospective analysis to prospective theorizing: a rigorous, imaginative, and values-driven engagement with desirable futures. Management scholarship must evolve from rigorously studying organizations to using speculative rigour to actively shape the foundations for a viable, just, and sustainable future.
