    Social Movements, Stakeholders, and Non-Market Strategy (14000)

     

    Sponsors: OMT, BPS, SIM, PNP
    Time: Saturday, August 5, 2017 from 8:00 am – 10:30 am
    Place: Atlanta Marriott Marquis in Atrium A602

     

    Speakers: Rodolphe Durand (HEC Paris), Neil Fligstein (UC Berkeley), Henrich Greve (INSEAD), and Charlene Zietsma (York U)

     

    Civil society groups have had a significant impact on markets and economically-driven organizations over the past century. From the rise of the environmental movement and the implementation of the Clean Air Act to Occupy Wall Street's efforts to highlight income inequality, activist organizations and their participants have shaped not only firm behavior, but also industry's willingness to respond to civil society at large.

     

    In our third year of this workshop, we are turning our focus outward, exploring the other areas of management research that can both inform-and be informed by-the study of activism and firms. Our goal is to unite the numerous researchers interested in the relationship between social movements and firms to advance scholarly efforts in this area and to build a community of scholars with related interests. Additionally, we hope to broaden the scope of our community by inviting the participation of scholars who have not yet studied social movements and markets, but who would like to contribute to this area of work in the future.

     

    This PDW consists of two segments. In the first, a panel of four experts will discuss how the study of social movements, stakeholders, and nonmarket strategy can inform, and be informed by, their respective areas of interest - followed by a question and answer session with the audience. The second segment will feature research round-tables, where participants will receive feedback from leading scholars and fellow participants on new research ideas or issues faced with current projects.

    Social Movements, Stakeholders, and Non-Market Strategy (#13002)

     

    Sponsors: OMT, STR, SIM, ONE

    Time: Saturday, August 11, 2018 from 10:00 am to 12:30 am

    Place: Marriott Chicago Downtown - Magnificent Mile in Chicago D

     

    Speakers: Michael Lenox (Darden), Katherine Kellogg (MIT), Xiaowei Rose Luo (INSEAD), Mark Mizruchi (UMichigan), Timothy Werner (UT Austin)

     

    Civil society groups have had a significant impact on markets and economically-driven organizations over the past century. From the environmental and civil rights protests of the 1960s to contemporary social-media movements combating sexual harassment, racism, and xenophobia, activist organizations and their participants have shaped not only firm behavior, but also industry's willingness to respond and even participate in civil society.

     

    For the past three years, we have convened this professional development workshop (PDW) as a means of integrating the various research lenses through which social movements and markets are studied. This year, we are including a focus on recent geopolitical trends – the emergence of populism and nationalism, and the collective responses to it – and the implications for firms, markets, and stakeholders.

     

    Our goal is to unite the numerous researchers interested in the relationship between social movements and firms, to advance scholarly efforts in this area, and to build a community of scholars with related interests. We are particularly interested in broaden the scope of our community through participation of scholars who have not yet studied social movements and markets, but who would like to contribute to this area of work in the future.

     

    The PDW is composed of two segments. First, a panel of five experts will discuss promising new directions for the study of social movements, stakeholders, and non-market strategy. These talks will be followed by Q&A with the audience. The second segment will feature research round-tables where participants will receive feedback from leading scholars and fellow participants on new research ideas or issues faced with current projects.
