Business scholars have the opportunity to influence both the educational and the corporate sectors. Because most research is grounded in the reality of business, many scholars today see their theories enacted in actual practice across the business spectrum. Often, business scholars work with the top people in a wide variety of fields and can be found advising leaders of industry, collaborating with colleagues on cutting-edge research, and guiding students and executives returning to the classroom in search of new ideas and practices.
