"The Routledge Companion to the Future of Management Research edited by experienced researchers and practitioners D. Crowther and S. Seifi covers theory, practice, and sustainability. It is scientifically sound and provocative, and its models are applicable. It’s a volume that practitioners and researchers should read, think about, and if suitable, apply its models. It is hard not to see that authors of chapters scrutinize important issues of the current and future management research in the shadow of natural and unnatural risks threatening global business." Professor Kristijan Krkač, Ph.D., Zagreb School of Economics and Management
