Leveraging the Healthcare Context to Examine Important Management Questions
Saturday, Aug 5 2023 3:00PM - 6:00PM ET (UTC-4) at Boston Marriott Copley Place in Salon C
The purpose of this PDW is to explore how the healthcare context can be utilized to examine important managerial issues. In this PDW, we aim both to illustrate the importance of the healthcare sector, but also how this context can help scholars contribute to ongoing scholarly discussions. We will examine a selection of management issues within a healthcare setting ranging from how firms' structures can shape their pricing decisions and strategy, to understanding career progression pathways, to learning from mistakes. These will all serve to illustrate the strengths and limitations of the healthcare context to examine important managerial questions. Following the presentation and discussion element of the PDW, we will split into roundtable discussion groups where the PDW participants will discuss pre-submitted extended abstracts of research ideas that they are developing within a healthcare setting.
