Abstract

In this Curated conversation, we bring together five scholars with a shared interest in collaborative approaches to grand challenges but who offer distinct approaches and foci. Our intention is to deepen the conversation between different communities in management research, with the ultimate objective of exploring potential avenues for mutual inspiration, learning, ­and collaboration. In their individual essays, the contributors to this conversation offer pointed insights into different aspects of collaboration in the context of grand challenges. In addition, we identify four pivotal themes across these essays, which, so we argue, constitute suitable foci for scholarly collaboration across community boundaries with the potential to recenter the “big picture” of collaboration. Our hope is to facilitate cross-pollination and thereby generate additional rigorous, realistic, and actionable approaches to the topic.
