    The proposed PDW builds on prior Process Research PDWs to help scholars reflect on the challenges of, and various approaches to, connecting process-in-the-moment with wider processes. Making these connections and conveying them richly and convincingly is difficult for process researchers at any stage of their careers. This PDW aims to open up the conversation about the importance of connecting processes, to convey how 'messy' (and creative!) it can be, and to develop some strategies and approaches that are effective starting points for scholars seeking to connect processes-in-the-moment with wider process in their research and writing. Our proposed PDW is now in its 13th year, and it attracts scholars from across AOM divisions who want to share and learn about methods for conducting process studies. This year's proposed PDW will build on the success of past PDWs that have explored how data, theories and methods can be used to advance process research. The aim of the first part of the PDW is to bring the practice of process research to life and generate discussion. The second part of the PDW provides participants with opportunities to receive feedback on their own process research in small group discussions with past and present Process Research PDW presenters.

     

    Pre-registration is not required for Part 1 of the workshop; it is open to all. Pre-registration is required for Part 2 of the workshop. We will manage pre-registration for Part 2 through an external email submission process. To register for Part 2 of the workshop, visit: http://processresearchmethods.org/pdw-registration/. Please download and complete the 2017 Part 2 Workshop Form. Participants for Part 2 will submit a short (1000-2000 word) paper describing a process research project. Send the completed form to Holly Fena (ahvstaff@umn.edu) by July 2, 2017. Harry Sminia (harry.sminia@strath.ac.uk) will coordinate the small group discussion paper session by grouping the participants' papers by topic/methods areas, and sending them for advance reading to all participants and faculty in each group paper session.
