British Academy of Management is delighted to announce the first of ten annual Wensley Memorial Lectures.
Our Lecture theme is ‘Ensuring Solar Power Transitions for both the Climate and Ecological Emergencies’.
The Wensley Memorial Lecture has been created to honour the memory and celebrate the achievements of Professor Robin Wensley’s inspirational work in support of excellence in business and management scholarship, through British Academy of Management and beyond. With the support of Warwick Business School (where Robin worked for so long) and importantly, Robin’s family, the British Academy of Management are delighted to launch the annual Robin Wensley Memorial Lecture.
Robin Wensley was a founding member of the British Academy of Management, a world-leading scholar and a lifetime champion of early career and interdisciplinary researchers, the annual Wensley Memorial Lecture provides an opportunity to engage in an interdisciplinary dialogue and exchange, organised around a lecture and panel discussion on an important area of contemporary concern.
For the inaugural Wensley Memorial Lecture, BAM and Warwick Business School welcome Professor Alona Armstrong, of Energy and Environmental Sciences and Director of Energy Lancaster at Lancaster University to speak with us about what we can do to ensure solar power transitions support both the climate and ecological emergencies.
In our time of the Anthropocene we also welcome Hing Kin Lee, Group Lead for Nature, NextEnergy Capital, and Hugh Wilson, Professor of Marketing, Warwick Business School, to explore the inter- and transdisciplinary research opportunities that this important topic generates. The discussion will be Chaired by Professor Katy Mason, President of British Academy of Management, PVC Dean and Professor of Markets at the University of Salford.
