If you are still looking for something to listen to on your way home from work today, you might find the new brand eins Podcast episode, "Unternehmensführung: Studien statt Bauchgefühle", interesting!
In an interview with Christian Bollert from detektor.fm, Prof. Reitzig talks about keeping things short, precise, and understandable when it comes to presenting current scientific studies to practicioners in the management sector, and about his own podcast "Neues aus der Managementforschung in 220 Sekunden".
He also touches upon the value of management research for the management work sphere, issues of restructuring, as well as the necessary role of science journalism as a bridge between research and the interested public.
You can find the relevant episode of the brand eins podcast here or here.
Please note that it is only in German, however.

On 26 September 2023 a number of researchers from the universities of Vienna, Linz and Innsbruck came together in Innsbruck to discuss issues regarding decentralized open forms of organizing.
The workshop on Decentralized Open Forms of Organizing was organised by Andreas Eckhardt (University of Innsbruck) and Waldemar Kremser, and allowed both PhD-students and more senior researchers to consider current developments around this research subject. It brought together insights from a variety of fields, such as computer science, strategy research and organizational research.
Prof. Reitzig spoke at length about "Implications and Open Questions for the Research on Modern
Organization", while Kathrin Heiss, PhD student at the Strategic Management subject area, used this opportunity to share some of her recent thesis work.
