Can ChatGPT enhance business student creativity? Evidence from a randomised controlled trial
This study examines the impact of generative AI (genAI) tools, specifically ChatGPT, on university student creativity across three disciplines: Marketing, Management, and Entrepreneurship. Using a randomised control trial design with 1190 undergraduate students, creativity was evaluated through fluency, originality, and elaboration. Findings reveal the use of ChatGPT had little to no effect for Entrepreneurship students yet tended to enhance crea…
Understanding Female White Migrant Academics' Career Narratives
This paper presents how a team of women researchers, with differing intersectional characteristics of race, family support, age, migration background, and career achievement, individually and (subsequently) collaboratively interpreted the career narratives of three white Western women migrant academics. Through auto‐ethnographical accounts, we share how each of the researchers' intersectionalities shaped their respective initial interpretations. …
Generative AI and the future of education
Generative artificial intelligence (AI) has taken the world by storm, with notable tension transpiring in the field of education. Given that Generative AI is rapidly emerging as a transformative innovation, this article endeavors to offer a seminal rejoinder that aims to (i) reconcile the great debate on Generative AI in order to (ii) lay the foundation for Generative AI to co-exist as a transformative resource in the future of education. Using c…
Cross‐sector collaboration for refugee employment
Employment plays a crucial role in the successful resettlement of migrants. However, there is a paucity of research on how to facilitate refugee employment outcomes and the role of cross‐sector collaborations. Using a qualitative, multi‐layered analysis of primary and secondary data from Australian settlement service providers (SSPs) and the businesses they work with, this study explores how public service organisations co‐create value with stake…
Impact of lecturers’ emotional intelligence on students’ learning and engagement in remote learning spaces
Higher education institutions have recently transitioned from face-to-face to online teaching and learning environments. However, academic staff lack sufficient training in applying emotional intelligence (EI) skills and strategies in online learning environments. Although literature addressing academics’ EI is sparse, some studies have suggested that lecturers’ EI greatly influences teaching and learning. This study used the concept of EI to und…
Paternalistic leadership as a double-edged sword
Despite the challenges facing small economies, leadership research has given scant attention to leaders' behaviour in those countries during crises. Using seemingly paradoxical domains of paternalistic leadership theory: authoritarian, benevolent and moral leader behaviour, together with concepts like populism from the political science domain, we analyse how Sri Lanka's 'strongman' President provided a façade of paternalistic leadership during t…

Years since migration and wellbeing among Indian and Sri Lankan skilled migrants in Australia
Life Satisfaction of Sri Lankan and Indian Skilled Migrants in Australia
Achieving higher life satisfaction is one of the main reasons for migration. Using cross-sectional survey data, this study explored the life satisfaction of 306 Indian and Sri Lankan skilled migrants employed in Australia. The results indicated that the life satisfaction of the participants was slightly above the Australian normative standard. Achievements in life, standard of living, feeling part of the community, and personal relationships were…
