    Symposium

    Symbolic Management in the 21st Century


    Date: Monday August 4th
    Time: 9:45am to 11:15am
    Location: Pennsylvania Convention Center, Room 113 B
     
    Despite the considerable attention scholars have devo    ted to studying symbolic management, theoretical integration across disciplines remains limited. This symposium brings together researchers from strategy, organizational behavior, and organization theory to address three questions which are foundational to the future of symbolic management research: 1) What common threads characterize our collective understanding of symbolic management across domains of organizational research, 2) What theoretical and practical approaches do managers have at their disposal to accomplish symbolic management, and 3) What role do stakeholder and society play in validating symbolic management efforts?
