Discussion: View Thread

This Professional Development Workshop (PDW) will reflect on the growing interest in diaries for collecting and analyzing process data in organizational research. The PDW is structured in two parts: The first part of the PDW is a facilitated panel discussion with leading academics who have conducted award-winning diary research in strategy and entrepreneurship from different theoretical backgrounds covering both qualitative and quantitative approaches. The aim of the panel discussion is to highlight the variety and advantages of diaries as research data and will elaborate on multiple domains of application. Part 2 will focus on roundtable discussions facilitated by leading scholars who are experienced with diary research. This PDW is intended to inspire further epistemological interest, as well as to develop methodological guardrails that help navigating the data collection, data management and data interpretation with diaries. The panel discussion of Part 1 is open to all participants and does not require a pre-registration. 

Participants who wish to engage in Part 2 will need to submit a proposal (~2 pages) and your CV. We will limit the number of participants to 42-50 in the second part to allow for individualized discussions. Deadline for application is July 23!

We look forward to seeing you in Boston!
