Abstract

Currently there is much debate about the gap between business schools and the business world (Bennis & O’Toole, 2005; Gosling & Mintzberg, 2003; Huff, 2000; Pfeffer & Fong, 2002). One of the arguments is that business schools focus too much on “scientific” research and lack relevant business context and realworld experience. This problem of the detachment of the academic world from the business world forms the basis of the research efforts at the department of Information Management at the University of Amsterdam over the past 20 years.
