A research paper on “group emotions” co-authored by Dr Jochen Menges of Cambridge Judge Business School has won the Best Article Award of the Academy of Management Annals, which is published by the Academy of Management.

The article examined group emotions in the context not only of organisational science, but also psychology and sociology – and showed that group emotions exist at many levels and not only in small work groups, which often has been the focus in this field.

The paper – entitled “Group emotions: cutting the Gordian knots concerning terms, levels of analysis, and processes”, was published in the Academy of Management Annals in March 2015. It is co-authored by Dr Jochen Menges, University Lecturer in Organisational Behaviour at Cambridge Judge Business School, and Martin Kilduff, Professor of Organisational Behavior at University College London.

The Academy of Management Annals provides in-depth examination of the latest advances in various management fields, and says that its articles are designed to “challenge established assumptions and concepts, pinpoint problems and factual errors, inspire discussions, and illuminate possible avenues for further study.”
