Abstract
 Action research has a long tradition of engaging organizational and management scholars and practitioners in enabling change in organizations. It has been at the forefront in building collaborative and enacting approaches to respond to the VUCA (volatile, unpredictable, complex and ambiguous) challenges of our world. One of the premises of this PDW is that action research can play an important role in innovating for the future in addressing how we can develop new actionable knowledge for organizational and societal change. It does so by taking collaborative inquiry and action as an important site of knowing. This PDW is directed to doctoral students, faculty and practitioners who undertake action research out of a desire to address ‘red and hot’ organizational/management challenges. Participants will be invited to focus on their own action research experiences, ambitions and questions, as a starting point of an exploration of action research principles, design choices and potentials for knowledge creation. They will leave with an increased awareness of how to undertake and/or supervise action research as a mode of impactful research while increasing understanding of how to conduct inquiry in a collaborative and egalitarian way.
