‘Don’t look at what I am, but who I am’ – academic Kenny Meesters has no interest in climbing the career ladder
Nederlands A system can only offer safety if human vulnerability is given a place at the table, argues bestselling author and professor of social work Brené Brown in her paperback Dare to Lead: Brave Work. Tough Conversations. Whole Hearts. And: clarity is kind, ambiguity is unkind. A similar undertone emerges in a conversation with academic Kenny Meesters, which we held in connection with Tilburg University’s video series ‘The Career Path’*. We delve deeper into the question: when do you fe...

Publish and Perish? Hyper-Competitive Culture, Performance and Well-being in Academia
Source: INSEAD (text LinkedIn post Robert Durr/AI) Do academic researchers perform better in more aggressive, masculine hyper-competitive cultures? No, in such environments they have: lower publication rates, lower citation impact, lower employee well-being, higher turnover intentions. This is shown in a new paper by Maria Guadalupe, Daisy Pollenne, and Kaisa Snellman, using unique survey and archival data across leading European business schools. The negative associations hold for both me...

002. The sand in the gears of large-scale interdisciplinary research: uncovering bottom-up rearrangements of university infrastructure
Source: Science as culture (article) ABSTRACT Large-scale interdisciplinary programmes aim to tackle today’s grand societal challenges. The hope is that by pooling large amounts of funding and assembling massively interdisciplinary teams, solutions to big challenges come within reach. Yet, discipline-oriented university infrastructure often creates significant friction: mundane routines and ‘boring things’ act as ‘sand in the gears’, steering collaborations off course. Improving interdiscip...
