Organizational Responses to Crisis
Mon, August 10, 2:00 to 3:30pm, TBASession Submission Type: Paper Session (90 minute)
Description
Organizational responses to the external environment are a fundamental concern of sociology. This concern becomes especially important for today’s organizations, which are navigating a deeply uncertain world of urgent, interlocking crises. In this session, we seek to take up the crises that organizations navigate, address, or even create. We welcome all levels of empirical analysis from the micro to the macro, considering everything from local crises specific to an organization to ones of global scope. Organization theory perspectives are also welcome, and could consider open questions such as crisis materiality, temporality, and so on.
