About this document
Sixth issue of Impact & Knowledge, published in August 2025, presenting reflections firmly embedded in today's societal and managerial challenges: flipped learning, intergenerational transmission, leadership resilience and public sector competitiveness. Two opinion pieces explore the role of children as agents of awareness in the fight against food waste, signed by Amélie Clauzel, Caroline Riché and Nathalie Guichard of IUT Sceaux at Paris-Saclay University and originally published by The Conversation France, and the enduring mechanisms of gender inequality in the workplace, viewed through the lens of gender stereotypes. The edition also includes two Impact(s) articles: the first examines how competitiveness can be specifically leveraged by public sector organisations, while the second features the voices of senior leaders from Australian universities whose insights offer valuable perspectives on managerial resilience in times of crisis. The issue illustrates the purpose of this bimonthly publication, which is to make research carried out by the faculty and alumni of the Business Science Institute accessible to a professional readership. The publication pursues its aim of circulating research results directly useful to managers beyond the academic circle alone. Each contribution is signed by a professor, an associate researcher or a doctor of the institute, and extends research work carried out within the programme.
