Om denne e-boken

This book is based on an in-dept, remotely filmed conversation in December 2020 between Howard Burton and Andy Hoffman, Holcim Professor of Sustainable Enterprise at the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business and School of Environment and Sustainability. They discuss Andy Hoffman’s research and scholarly insights which are extremely relevant to today’s society. Andy Hoffman is passionately committed to encouraging fellow academics to play a much stronger role in communicating knowledge, facts and information to the regular public and politicians which has culminated into his two new books ‘The Engaged Scholar’ and ‘Management As A Calling’.

This carefully-edited book includes an introduction, Exceptional Times, and questions for discussion at the end of each chapter:

I. Reprise - 7 years on

II. Truth Decay - Facts under fire?

III. The Value of Wisdom - Beyond knowledge

IV. Investigating Rewards - Intrinsic vs. extrinsic

V. Concrete Opportunities - And concrete scepticism

VI. Management as a Calling - Focusing on the students

VII. Opinionated Ignorance - Hardly what the Founding Fathers had in mind

VIII. Qualified Optimism - Hopeful signs

IX. Spreading the Word - Creating new platforms through technology

X. Getting Personal - Slings, arrows and the learning experience

XI. Shattered Leadership? - Desperately trying to pick up the pieces

About Ideas Roadshow Conversations: Presented in an accessible, conversational format, Ideas Roadshow books not only explore frontline academic research but also reveal the inspirations and personal journeys behind the research.
