Domain Statement
The Division brings together a global community of scholars researching and teaching management themes with a cross-border or cross-cultural dimension, including not only traditional management topics, but also the contribution of management to addressing evolving global social and environmental challenges. Scholarship that focuses on a single country and has no international issues or implications is not within the purview of the IM division.
Members of the IM community conduct research on themes such as: the cross-border management of operations, including multi-country, multi-unit, strategy formulation and implementation; the cross-border differential impact of cultural, social, economic, technological, political, and other institutional forces on strategies, organizational forms, and management practices; evolving forms and management practices in cross-border business using physical and virtual channels supporting international business activities; the international competitiveness of entrepreneurs, firms, industries, and nations;comparative management studies involving two or more countries; the impact of multinational enterprises on the societies in which they operate, and their contribution to global challenges such as social inequalities and climate change.
