This paper introduces interactive research as an emerging approach within a broad family of collaborative research approaches in management and organization research. Interactive research is a way to contribute to the dual tasks of long-term theory development and innovation and change processes in organizations. One of the distinguishing features of interactive research is a focus on continuous joint learning processes between the researchers and the involved practitioners.,The basic concepts, contributions and challenges of the interactive research approach are presented and illustrated in the present paper through a practical case, the HELIX Centre.,Interactive research is a way to advance scientific knowledge about the development of new types of work organizations and the development of sustainable operations. The multi-disciplinary and interactive research approach at HELIX has made it possible to reach a high degree of both rigour and relevance in research questions and projects. The authors identified five principles from the HELIX case that were instrumental in accomplishing the dual tasks of interactive research.,The interactive research approach is a powerful method of collaboration between different stakeholders throughout the research process. This type of research makes it possible to interact at various levels of research, from the programme level, to research and development projects, to the individual level. The results from interactive research should not only be considered traditionally valid but also valid in relation to organizational and societal needs.

互动研究：概念、贡献和挑战

本文介绍了交互式研究作为管理和组织研究中广泛的协作研究方法家族中的一种新兴方法。交互式研究是为组织中长期理论发展和创新和变革过程的双重任务做出贡献的一种方式。交互式研究的显着特征之一是关注研究人员和相关从业者之间持续的联合学习过程。本文通过一个实际案例介绍和说明了交互式研究方法的基本概念、贡献和挑战， HELIX 中心。,互动研究是一种推进有关新型工作组织发展和可持续运营发展的科学知识的方式。HELIX 的多学科和互动研究方法使研究问题和项目达到高度的严谨性和相关性成为可能。作者从 HELIX 案例中确定了有助于完成交互式研究双重任务的五项原则。交互式研究方法是在整个研究过程中不同利益相关者之间进行协作的强大方法。这种类型的研究可以在不同的研究层面进行互动，从项目层面到研发项目，再到个人层面。互动研究的结果不仅应被视为传统上有效，而且在与组织和社会需求相关的情况下也应被视为有效。
