Teaching Evidence-Based Management

Send us a message with your thoughts or reactionsThis episode continues our discussion about teaching evidence-based management to undergraduates (listen to Part 1 if you haven't already!).We discuss how to ensure that the next generation of managers is not just well-versed with the theories, but also equipped to make evidence-based decisions in the real-world, developing the skills they need to challenge the current way of doing things (with humility!). We bring together experienced teachers from renowned universities like Tilburg, Colorado College, James Madison, Carnegie Mellon and KU Leuven, to uncover the strategies and challenges in teaching evidence-based management to undergraduates.Our guests share their experience of using pre and post-tests to measure the effectiveness of teaching and how to create an aspiration among students to continue using evidence-based practices beyond their education - tapping into the ways in which they already use multiple sources of evidence. We discover that an evidence-based approach is giving students a framework for navigating the often overwhelming amount of information, facts and truths available to them - helping to combat the increasing level of uncertainty and ambiguity they otherwise face in the world.Join us as we unravel the complex world of teaching evidence-based management to undergraduates, filled with practical tips, expert advice, and much more.Host:Karen PlumGuests:Brigitte Kroon, Associate Professor of Human Resource Studies, Tilburg University, NetherlandsChristina Rader, Associate Professor with Tenure, Department of Economics and Business at Colorado College, Colorado, USADavid Peterson, Associate Professor of Management, James Madison University, Virginia, USADenise Rousseau, H J Heinz University Professor, Carnegie Mellon University, Pennsylvania, USAJeroen Stouten, Professor of Organizational Psychology, KU Leuven, Belgium & CEBMa Scientific Director Rob Briner, Professor of Organisational Psychology, Queen Mary University of LondonMentions:Eric Barends, Managing Director of the Center for Evidence-Based ManagementCEBMa Teachers NetworkCEBMa’s Online Course Modules

More and more people are taking courses and starting to practice better decision making by looking at multiple sources of evidence - not just their own experience. The Center for Evidence-Based Management leads the way in teaching, training and practicing best practice methods. Training is available for those wanting to improve their evidence-based management skills, and there is a Teachers Network for those who teach (elements of) evidence-based management. Here we share ideas about learning, insights on best practices, and teaching materials that teachers can use in their classes.This podcast is for educators who are currently teaching evidence based management, or who are are thinking of taking the plunge! We talk to people who teach this approach to different groups – from under graduates to executives – and share their experiences, tips and techniques – what works and what doesn’t, for each kind of learner.
