ABSTRACT

The focus of this chapter is to address one of the critical future challenges in management research; namely, embracing the ‘global’ character of research. A case will be made that amidst the concerns of globalization there is perhaps scope to embrace a global orientation towards research as it provides a basis for transcending beyond limits of country, boundary or settings of management practice (scholarship, business, policy) to engage learning practitioner who carry different labels, ‘academic,’ ‘researcher,’ ‘manager,’ ‘policymaker,’ in collaborative research.
