Greetings all,
It is my pleasure to invite you to submit an extended abstract to the Positive Organizational Scholarship Research Conference held June 5-6, 2019. I am so excited to host a research track on Addressing (In)Equity and (In)Justice in Organizations Seeking to do Good. This research track extends our focus on diversity and inclusion to incorporate research on equity and justice. Further, we invite submissions that address inequities and injustice in "good" organizations. Please share this email broadly with people whose work may be a great fit for the conference! Details for the research track are included below:
Addressing (In)Equity and (In)Justice in Organizations Seeking to do Good
In striving for inclusion, organizations must face hard truths including the underrepresentation of marginalized employees (e.g., women of color) in leadership, pay and wage inequities, and experiences of injustice in the forms of harassment and mistreatment. These truths are also present in organizations that seek to "do good" such as nonprofits, community organizations, and social enterprises. In this session, we will examine how "good" organizations grapple with inequities and injustices towards crafting an inclusive environment. We especially invite research that explores these concepts in non-traditional workplaces.
Abstract submissions are now open. We will invite extended abstracts until December 14, 2018. Details about the conference and abstract submission may be found here: 2019 POS Research Conference - Center for Positive Organizations
I look forward to reviewing your abstract submissions!
Best,
Courtney
