My PhD dissertation has received the 2010 Emerald/EFMD Outstanding Doctoral Research Awards. Emerald Group Publishing Limited, publisher of the largest collection of international business and management journals, and the European Foundation for Management Development (EFMD), a global membership organization with more than 700 institutional members from academia, business and public services, seek to celebrate excellence in research by sponsoring the 2010 Emerald/EFMD Outstanding Doctoral Research Awards.
Of course, I am very proud of having won this prize in the Knowledge Management category but I see that prize has a clear recognition of researchers looking at knowledge management practitioners (ie knowledge managers). As mentionned in my previous post (see below), knowledge managers are still not a matter of research work ! Hope this prize will change a little bit this trend...
