This 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.
