    We hope you can join us for our symposium "So Much Work to Do - New Approaches to Studying Work Tasks" - the winner of the OMT Best Symposium Award!

    In this symposium, we ask how to bring the study of work tasks more centrally to organizational research. We invite junior scholars to present novel approaches to studying and theorizing the role of work tasks in organizations. Presenters will cover both the nuts-and-bolts of identifying and working with task data, and the broader implications for our thinking, research questions and theorizing that come from focusing on tasks. 

    Presenters:
    - Callen Anthony (NYU)
    - Jillian Chown (Kellogg Northwestern)
    - Theodore DeWitt (UMass)
    - Nate Wilmers (MIT)

    Discussant: Lisa Cohen (McGill)

    Location: SCC Tahoma 4 (Hybrid)
