    Hello everyone!

    We invite you to join us for our PDW at AOM 2025:

    Navigating Field Work in Emotionally Challenging Contexts
    Saturday, July 26, 2025 | 8:00–10:30 AM | Bella Center, MR17

    This interactive session explores the emotional, ethical, and methodological complexities of conducting fieldwork in sensitive environments, including research on trauma, workplace harassment, stigmatized work, organizational crises, and other emotionally challenging contexts.

    The session includes two parts:

    Part I:  A panel of scholars sharing personal reflections and practical insights from the field.
    Part II: Small-group roundtables for deeper discussion and tailored advice. Pre-registration required.

    We especially encourage PhD students and junior faculty to join us in the conversation!

    We look forward to an open, thoughtful conversation. Please share widely-and we hope to see you there!
