By Mohammed Ahmed posted 4 days ago

It is a health care issue, and of course, we need knowledge about the virus and the development of vaccines to protect ourselves. It is a pandemic, and to resolve crises, we have to build a bridge between clinical research and crisis management research (strategy). Although we have learned a lot about the virus in the last few months, the policymakers both in the public sector and private in several parts of the world do not fully utilize the knowledge gained about the virus to manage crises. Do you have any ideas on building a bridge between two?

I Love OMT Meet-ups

By Robert Eberhart posted 07-09-2020
1 person likes this.
OMT Online Meetups are an initiative launched recently by the OMT Executive Committee to help PhD students and junior scholars talk with and get advice from more senior scholars. Here’s a faculty perspective about the meetups from Robert Eberhart:   I love OMT meet-ups. Let’s face it, research is generally a lonely, lone-wolf activity. Few of us were among the popular crowd and advanced study is often tantamount to at least some social isolation. But we are social creatures who cannot know all that we need. So, as many have said, the virtues of communion with our comrades is both energizing and productive as we pursue writing the ultimate interesting ...

OMT Meet-Up Initiative: Coffee Chats in the time of Covid19

By Wendy Kilminster posted 06-30-2020

A parallel between industry and academia is that some of the greatest benefits of conferences are the serendipitous conversations taking place in the coffee queues, at the end of sessions, and over networking drinks. As a recent convert to academia, this year’s conference season was important to me as a way of broadening my professional network and ‘joining a conversation.’ (PhD students hear this expression a lot; it has taken me a while to work out what it means.) And if I’m honest, I was also hoping to use the experience to sharpen the elevator pitch for my research. So, the switch to a virtual format – while understandable and an impressive feat – was ...

The OMT Podcast - Season 1

What could an English doctorate, standup comedian, and startup entrepreneur possibly have in common? The answer is: surprisingly a lot. Marc-David Seidel, Dalhia Mani, Hovig Tchalian, and Lori Yue once led separate lives in separate disciplines. But they eventually converged, having served as OMT executive members, and today they are featured in OMT’s season 1 podcast. We are all familiar with the work of organizational scholars, colleagues and co-authors who are known for studying organizational behaviors, actions, and processes. Yet, quite often, we know little about the lives of the researchers behind these organizational stories. It is therefore delightful ...

Value Creation and Value Capture Alignment in Business Model Innovation

By Marin Jovanovic posted 04-12-2020
Be the first person to like this.
Industrial manufacturers are innovating their business models by shifting from selling products to selling outcome-based services, where the provider (manufacturer) guarantees to deliver the performance outcomes of the products and services. This form of business model innovation requires a profound yet little understood shift in how value is created, delivered, and captured. Our study of two successful and four unsuccessful cases of this shift finds that effectiveness in business model innovation hinges on the three process phases that unfold in collaboration with the customers: value proposition definition, value provision design, and value-in-use ...
