Please join the International Humanistic Management Association (IHMA) and Dr. Sandra Waddock (Boston College) for an Intellectual Shamans discussion with Dr. Bobby Banerjee for an inspirational Intellectual Shamans Webinar
Scholars often wonder how to do impactful scholarship. Bobby Banerjee is an example of someone who has consistently tackled difficult topics that really make a difference over many years of work—and he will share some of that approach with us during this webinar. Bobby will provide a broad overview of how over the years he has approached a range of important and impactful topics—from sustainability to corporate social responsibility (CSR) to decolonization. His innovative conceptual and empirical work includes insights into environmental racism and injustice; decolonizing management and organization studies; persistent inequalities in organizations; and a land-based relational ontology of the corporation, as well as Indigenous resistance movements in Chile and India; caste discrimination in Indian public sector organizations; conservation finance and Indigenous communities in Canada; and histories of slavery in the US farm sector. With his usual flair for stating truths boldly, Bobby will briefly discuss his current work which involves investigating sustainable livelihoods for rural communities impacted by climate change in Guinea-Bissau, India, Morocco, and Tunisia. Bobby speaks truth to power—and to scholarship. Please join us. You won’t be disappointed!
Date: Friday, October 7, 2022
