Research in management and surrounding disciplines is flourishing at many institutions in Central and Eastern Europe. However, networking and collaboration with different stakeholders in the region is often still underdeveloped, limiting the potential for institutional growth and individual career development. This two-day workshop aims to strengthen the regional research ecosystem for the benefit of individuals as well as institutions.
Research in management and surrounding disciplines is flourishing at many institutions in Central and Eastern Europe. However, networking and collaboration with different stakeholders in the region is often still underdeveloped, limiting the potential for institutional growth and individual career development. This two-day workshop aims to strengthen the regional research ecosystem for the benefit of individuals as well as institutions.
The topics addressed in the workshop will be:
• Research project design and implementation, funding opportunities
• Stakeholder management for data collection, knowledge generation & dissemination
• Individual career paths in academia
• Development of lasting infrastructures for research
A specific focus will be set on emerging fields of research and early career development. Work will proceed in a mix of plenary talks and group sessions for design of projects, strategies and funding applications. For early career scholars, opportunities for mentoring and advice will be given. Drawing on prior experience, we expect to make tangible progress with all topics.
The workshop will take place at the IEDC campus in Bled (https://iedc.si/about-iedc/about-campus), which provides a perfect meeting place to get inspired and work productively on results. Ample space is available to split into small working groups that can proceed quickly to first drafts that will then be further discussed with others. To cover costs for administration and catering, participants will pay a fee of 150 Euro.
Participants need to register until 31Jan 2025. For registration, please sent an application letter to research@iedc.si, introducing yourself and explaining your interest in the workshop and expected results.
