Found in Translation’ opens a window into how organization and management theory is used in practice. In these episodes, we talk to a broad range of stakeholders – including managers, consultants, journalists, and scholars – about the way that organization and management theory affects (their) practice. We dig into what theory means when used in an organizational context. We aim to help our listeners gain a better understanding of how organization and management theory achieves impact and how academia and practice interact. Found in Translation is developed, hosted and moderated by Ph.D. Fellow Malia Carvalho with guidance from Eva Boxenbaum, Renate Meyer, and Pedro Monteiro. The podcast is produced by CBS Teaching & Learning for the TITAN research project: Turning Theory into Action. TITAN is funded by the Velux Foundation and hosted at the Department of Organization - also called IOA - at Copenhagen Business School.

In this episode of ‘Found in Translation’, we discuss different strategies for applying theory in practice. We discuss the validating and undermining effects that theory can have, depending on the position that one occupies in the organisation: be it manager or consultant. The episode also touches on different situations of application, including a more explicit use in contrast to situations that call for a more implicit application.
The episode’s guest speaker is Peter Bagge Grimstrup, Operations manager at GRO Capital and former consultant at McKinsey. The episode is hosted and moderated by Ph.D. fellow Malia Carvalho.
