Reviews

This handbook aims to provide a compendium of current thinking and approaches to the research, practice, and teaching of evidence-based management (EBMgt). The 'Research' section is the strongest part of the Handbook and provides a wealth of summary information and guidelines for researchers wishing to adopt an EBMgt approach or simply extend their knowledge about EBMgt. Zanardelli's chapter in the 'Practice' section, which offers a rich picture of a manager attempting to practice EBMgt, is a valuable contribution because it makes clear that EBMgt does not guarantee all answers will be clear and that the path to 'evidence' does not have to be a regimented, paralysis-by-analysis, all-or-nothing approach. This nascent movement has more than just momentum, it has evidence that we can all build on, and this volume provides a strong, broad foundation for those interested in pursuing the opportunities. --Sim B. Sitkin, Administrative Science Quarterly

Sitkin, Administrative Science Quarterly

While the conception of EBMgt is multifaceted and lacks complete consistency, there is a substantial degree of consensus around its key elements and how it works... This volume is a valuable stimulus for essential conversations to come... This nascent movement has more than just momentum, it has evidence that we can all build on, and this volume provides a strong, broad foundation for those interested in pursuing the opportunities.
