Abstract

This paper joins the festivities that celebrate Professor Yadong Luo’s winning of the Academy of Management International Management Division (AOM IMD) Hyundai Motor Eminent Scholar Award. We address three crucial questions: (1) What do we know from Luo’s three decades of research? (2) How can he achieve sustained high-impact research? (3) What lessons can we learn from his scholarship? Deploying artificial intelligence (AI) to help make sense of Luo’s prolific and influential research, we find that his scholarship excels in both quantity and quality, expanding the boundaries in international business (IB) and international management (IM) research through his conceptual and empirical exploration of a broad range of topics. A trailblazing scholar bridging East and West, Luo has been a pioneer in reframing traditional West-based IB/IM concepts in East-based contexts centered on emerging markets. Asserting influence beyond his own field, he has successfully exported some IB/IM research to other disciplines. Critical lessons from his scholarship include: (1) Passion, dedication, and focus are a must. (2) Attention to reality and continuous learning drive success. (3) Open perspectives allow for better engagement with new phenomena.
