Abstract
The discussion from the morning session will identify promising avenues for knowledge and innovation research in strategic management, but how might one go about conducting empirical research on these issues? This panel features scholars with active research programs in knowledge and innovation and will offer observations related to key challenges associated with conducting empirical research in this area as well as offer some potential solutions. Attendees will be encouraged to offer their own insights regarding challenges and/or how to address them. Participants should leave the session with important insights regarding the practicalities of conducting knowledge and innovation research in strategic management.
