This volume provides a comprehensive, up-to-date overview of the latest management and organizational research related to risk, crisis, and emergency management. It is the first volume to present these separate, but related, disciplines together. Combined with a distinctly social and organizational science approach to the topics (as opposed to engineering or financial economics), the research presented here strengthens the intellectual foundations of the discipline while contributing to the development of the field.The Routledge Companion to Risk, Crisis and Emergency Management promises to be a definitive treatise of the discipline today, with contributions from several key academics from around the world. It will prove a valuable reference for students, researchers, and practitioners seeking a broad, integrative view of risk and crisis management.

This timely Research Handbook explores the functions and systems of organizational control, which are crucial for organizational success. In light of rapid and disruptive change that has eroded established knowledge of best practices, leading scholars assemble new ideas as to how to combat these emerging challenges. Chapters analyze various key research agendas relating to organizational control, including configurational structures, technology, new work environments, and systems for ascending organizational forms. Adopting a transdisciplinary perspective, contributors explore a diverse range of subject areas, such as holistic orientation, multi-outcome emphases, and generative spirit. The Handbook provides valuable insights on the dynamic external environments faced by organizations today, highlighting areas for future research, such as how AI and datafication can be managed to respect human agency and societal legitimacy. The conceptual contributions, exploratory quantitative research, and qualitative case studies presented in this Research Handbook are of great benefit to scholars and students of business, particularly those in the disciplines of management and organizations, management information systems, and managerial accounting.
