The 38th ANZAM Conference is hosted by the Deakin Business School, Deakin University. It is the premier gathering for scholars, practitioners, and thought leaders in management research and practice in Australia and New Zealand. In 2025, the conference explores the theme “Alternative Truths in Management: Dare to Challenge the Status Quo.”
In an era of complexity, uncertainty, and competing narratives, this theme invites critical engagement with the dominant assumptions shaping management theory and practice. How do alternative perspectives disrupt conventional wisdom? What voices remain unheard in the pursuit of ‘truth’ in management? Join us as we challenge, debate, and rethink the foundations of our field, fostering a space for bold ideas and transformative scholarship.
