N2 - Management science includes a long-term concern for its practical relevance, which extends into the alleviation of society´s grand challenges. Much of management science asserts its relevance by presenting practical implications that are derived from contributions to academic debates. We argue that insufficient action has been paid to how management scholars derive practical implications as well as how these are linked to knowledge production for the alleviation of grand challenges. To explore this link, we cluster and content-analyze 553 practical implications from 137 empirical stuides on how managers should respond to climate change.
