Organization and Management Theory OMT

Dear Colleagues,

From 10-12 June 2018, Copenhagen Business School (CBS) will host the 6th biennial International Symposium on Cross-Sector Social Interactions (CSSI 2018). The event will bring together researchers and practitioners to understand how business, government, and civil society can interact to better address societal challenges such as climate change, immigration, social exclusion, and poverty. The theme of CSSI 2018 will be "Collaborative Societal Governance: Orchestrating Cross-Sector Social Partnerships for Social Welfare." At the event, academics and practitioners will present and discuss new and innovative ideas for organizing and managing cross-sector collaboration. Emphasis is on current and future approaches, systems and tools for governing cross-sector collaboration and their societal impacts (more info at https://cssi2018.com).

During this event, we are organizing a panel titled 'Cross-sector partnering and inclusive development'. Our panel aims to address the capacities of cross-sector partnerships to influence processes of inclusive development. Please find the full call for papers here: https://cssi2018.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/VellemaSchouten_PanelProposalCSSI2018_Final_Rev180105.pdf
