ION

ION’s vision is to be a catalyst for the creation and application of knowledge and understanding that powerfully impacts how international organizations are managed. We do so by maintaining a network of interdisciplinary academics through conferences and different collaborations throughout the year.

ION is a network of people committed to increasing the quality and impact of research on people and their effectiveness in international organizations. ION’s vision is to be a catalyst for the creation and application of knowledge and understanding that powerfully impacts how international organizations are managed. ION members believe that new, important knowledge about social systems is best created in a deep, tightly-linked social system. When people in such networks connect in multiple ways, beyond narrow definitions of work, they understand each others’ backgrounds and contexts and create shared experiences from which the knowledge is generated.
