About the Special Issue
In the scientific spirit of CERN, this Call for Papers emphasizes the urgent need to innovate pedagogies that prepare learners to lead, innovate, and act responsibly amid ongoing disruptions.
Ecological crisis, geopolitical instability, digital transformation, AI advancement, social inequality, and shifting work paradigms are changing the conditions under which management is taught and practiced. These disruptions require pedagogies that move beyond the transmission of established theories and instead cultivate systems thinking, ethical judgment, reflexivity, creativity, resilience, and responsible action. In this sense, the classroom becomes a laboratory for experimentation, organizational transformation, and societal impact.
We are pleased to announce that Matteo Vignoli, currently co-editor of the CERN IdeaSquare
Journal of Experimental Innovation (CIJ), has accepted to take up the role of Editor in Chief of the
Journal as of June 1 st , 2023.
