Das IfMK zählt zu den führenden medien- und kommunikationswissenschaftlichen Instituten im deutschsprachigen Raum. Um komplexe und relevante wissenschaftliche Fragestellungen und Probleme zu bearbeiten, stehen am Institut Interdisziplinarität, Praxisbezug und Internationalität im Vordergrund.

Komplexe wissenschaftliche Fragestellungen und Probleme lassen sich durch fächerübergreifende Zusammenarbeit, besser bewältigen. Sowohl fakultätsübergreifende Kooperationen an der TU Ilmenau als auch über deren Grenzen hinweg bündeln Kompetenzen und sind unerlässlicher Bestandteil der Forschung am IfMK. Projekte, die am Institut verwirklicht werden, sollen nicht nur Grundlagenfragen beantworten, sondern auch dazu beitragen, nützliche und umsetzbare Erkenntnisse für die Praxis zu erlangen. Ländervergleichende Forschungsfragen und internationale Kooperationen in Forschungsprojekten ermöglichen Forschung beispielsweise aus Perspektive unterschiedlicher Kulturen oder politischer Systeme.

Colloquium of the European Group for Organizational Studies in Milano

Management/Organization group invited to present in conference track

The European Group for Organizational Studies (EGOS) is a scholarly association which aims to further the theoretical and/or empirical advancement of knowledge about organizations, organizing and the contexts in which organizations operate. As a collective, one of its main aims is to maintain and provide a voice for the critical and analytical approaches of its members to the study of organization worldwide.

The purpose of the 40th EGOS Colloquium 2024 – hosted by the University of Milan-Bicocca – is to investigate what elements represent the crucial crossroads for organizations of the present and the next future. The concept of “Crossroad” can refer to a place where one road crosses another, an intersection that has the potential to connect people traveling from different sites and moving in different directions. A crossroad symbolizes a crucial point in time when a decision becomes inevitable: going on the same way, along a straight path, is no longer suitable, and the traveller has to look for new directions to not remain stuck. In this sense, crossroads may also be emblematic of a time of uncertainty, for people not being able to clearly see where to turn to face new incoming issues.

The management and organization group had submitted two extended abstracts:

Actualizing the past, dealing with the present, and preparing for the future – routine dynamics across temporal reference points in the context of a Management Buyout, Sub-theme 22: „At the Crossroads of Temporality and Routine Dynamics: Elucidating the Situated Enactment of Time”, Ronald Hartz, Peter Galvin and Norbert Bach

Innovating sustainability: Divergent temporal dynamics in corporate narratives, Sub-theme 10: “Innovating for Desirable Futures: Exploring the Intersection of Innovation, Sustainability, and Time”, Harry Hoffmann and Simon Oertel

The authors of both abstracts now have been invited to develop the abstracts into full papers and to present and discuss their work with the respective academic communities in Milan.
