    AoM PDW: Time and Temporality in Process Research

     

    When: Friday August 9, 8.00-12.00, Coronado Springs Resort, Fiesta 5

     

    This ninth annual Process PDW supports a growing community of AoM scholars who want to share and learn about methods for conducting process studies. This year's PDW will focus on one of the distinguishing characteristics of process research: time. While time is always an innate characteristic of processes, the specific approach to, and nature of, temporality is often hidden in process research. The aim of this PDW is to foreground time and temporality in process methods by building upon the work of three established scholars who have each taken novel approaches to emphasizing the importance of time in organizational or management processes in their work.

     

    The PDW runs in two consecutive parts.  The first part focuses on time and temporality, and the importance of novel analysis in dealing with change over extended periods of time. It will feature presentations by JoAnn Yates (MIT Sloan School of Management), Sarah Kaplan (University of Toronto, Rotman School) and Connie Gersick (Yale University School of Management), followed by a panel of the presenters and the workshop convenors, in interactive discussion with the audience. The aim of this session is to bring process research to life through the experiences of established process scholars.

     

    The second part of the PDW provides participants with opportunities to present and receive feedback on their own process studies in small group discussions with past and present Process Research PDW faculty and other participants on short papers that they submit.

     

    Speakers and Facilitators include:

     

    - Julia Balogun, Lancaster U., UK

    - Connie Gersick, Yale U., USA
