الملخص:How can we ensure that research work in management science is useful to society? The purpose of our article is to show that Intervention-Research Method (IRM) in Management is an effective research methodology for doing just this. IRM is incorporated within the Engaged Scholarship approach: the co-construction of knowledge is the result of researchers working with members of organizations. The aim of this process is to increase the likelihood that complex phenomena will be understood as well as ensuring the usefulness of the research to society. Through a number of IRM studies carried out over the past decade, we can demonstrate that this methodology applied to CSR processes: constitutes a responsible source of innovation and has ‘societal value’ ; facilitates the implementation of a strategic project to successfully anticipate a changing environment, enhanced by organizational agility. Ultimately, the societal utility of this form of research is threefold: it contributes to the development of research knowledge in management science ; it enables the operational implementation of responsible approaches within organizations ; it provides CSR education that is firmly grounded in the real world, constantly updated to address the most relevant issues facing organizations and focused on the acquisition of skills by learners.
