My PhD student Ian Jones has won the Best Developmental Paper award in the Management and Business History Track of the British Academy of Management conference, 2018. His research is funded jointly the AHRC and Barclays Bank. Ian is embedded in Barclays Group Archives, which has given him access to the data that allowed him to write his paper paper, “Using social media to develop a polyphonic approach to the use of rhetorical history at Barclays Bank.” His research investigates the way in which historical information drawn from the Archives is used, presented and interpreted for internal consumption, and how individual employees engage with existing historical narratives.
Congratulations Ian.
