Responsible Management Research Group

What Are We Doing?

As the Responsible Management Research Group, we conduct research and activities that promote a more sustainable society and economy. The RMRG is founded on the basis that our contemporary world is unsustainable, and we are globally in need of more sustainable models of organising. Faced with a planetary crisis, as signified by climate change, ever-rising inequalities, authoritarian politics, and ongoing wars, the world is in need of new ideas for more sustainable organizing. In that light, we research the unsustainability of contemporary organising, and look for new ways of organising responsibly.

Why Is It Important?

In light of the unsustainability of our contemporary world, universities have a large role to play in developing new ideas for sustainable organising. This starts with a scientific critique of contemporary ways of organising, but also entails a theorisation of our contemporary predicament, a resistance against problematic ways of organising, and imagining more sustainable and dignified ways of building workplaces and sustainable organisations. This is the task that is upon humanity and one of the greatest priorities of the RMRG.

How Are We Different?

Most of the contemporary academic readings and work is based on responsibility within the neoliberal capitalist system rather than to understand the necessity of changing the system itself. The RMRG is founded upon the belief that in order to create more sustainable societies, a radical change is needed that extends beyond the boundaries of organisations themselves, and extends to the sociopolitical economic system itself. Creating more sustainable ways of organising should extend to how societies are organised too, and the mission of the RMRG aligns with this principle.
