Philadelpha is the city of brotherly and sisterly love. Situated between two rivers, it was designed by Benjamin Franklin as a highly walkable city centered around City Hall. You'll love the Museum of Art, and the Franklin Institute - a science museum where you can learn about science through hands on activities. Check out the famous LOVE sculpture by Robert Indiana below!

Rigor-Relevance Awards: In Conversation with TBD
Time and Location: TBD
This event brings together eminent scholars who share their experiences in the pursuit of both rigor and relevance in their research. The Rigor and Relevance Award, sponsored by INSEAD, represents the core values of the Organization Development and Change Division - research that is both highly rigorous and highly relevant. We do not see rigor and relevance as an either/or - we see them as a both/and. Join us to hear this year's awardees - TBD - in a conversation about how they have achieved rigor and relevance in their research.
