Is there Such a thing as “Evidence-Based Management”?. Rousseau, D. M. Academy of Management Review, 31(2):256–269, April, 2006. Publisher: Academy of Management Briarcliff Manor, NY 10510
Is there Such a thing as “Evidence-Based Management”? [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
I explore the promise organization research offers for improved management practice and how, at present, it falls short. Using evidence-based medicine as an exemplar, I identify ways of closing the prevailing “research-practice gap”– the failure of organizations and managers to base practices on best available evidence. I close with guidance for researchers, educators, and managers for translating the principles governing human behavior and organizational processes into more effective management practice.
