More Description

The JIDR is devoted to a wide range of research themes, which are all linked to the concepts of organizations and management both implicitly and explicitly. The very history of management scholarship is rooted in the world of work and also with concern for employees well-being, as workers are not simply units of capital production, but also human beings. Our special call for this edition has been for new research within sustainability issues, in light of the UNs call for sustainability goals as a critical focus for sustainable management. Consequently, in this issue we present a number of new studies, which use a management lens to look at some fundamental questions societies face today: questions relating to follower-leader sustainability values across cultures, sustainable project management in Icelandic fisheries, geoeconomics prognosis in China-Central-Asia, gender equality and pay gaps, education management and well-being, ethics and white-collar crimes, economic issues in Indian banking and lastly consumer dynamics in retail. The discussions in these articles highlight several recurring and yet under-researched issues in these fields.
