It argues that a primary reason is the academic practice of evaluating the utility of its research with the inappropriate metrics of journal impact factors and citation counts. To become relevant, academic leaders must refocus evaluation of the field’s research on its meaningful impacts on society.</p><!--/ Abstract__block -->\u0000<h3>Design/methodology/approach</h3>\u0000<p>This study reviews the literature that differentiates the constructs of research quality and research impact and identifies their limitations.</p><!--/ Abstract__block -->\u0000<h3>Findings</h3>\u0000<p>The contention that either journal impact factors or citation counts adequately measure the usefulness of research is challenged. It is suggested that reliance on them has resulted in an academic self-serving “echo chamber.” The author argues the field should refocus away from the echo chamber to shift the primary evaluation of research to societal impact.

However, empowering fellow customers during the recovery process reduces observers’ intent to seek revenge against both guilty and innocent employees.
