In this webinar, we will explore how management scholars can navigate phenomenon-based research. Unlike traditional approaches, phenomenon-based research prioritizes the complexity of phenomena over the immediate generation of theoretical contributions. Phenomenon-based research utilizes the phenomenon itself as the primary source of insight, facilitating the development of relevant organizational frameworks. We will discuss a multistep framework encompassing phenomenon selection, framing, data collection, and study constraints, highlighting criteria-Pertinence, Reach, Insightfulness, Magnification, and Expediency (PRIME)-to guide scholars in identifying meaningful phenomena. Additionally, we will discuss constraints that may limit research, including cultural, logistical, ethical, academic, and resource-related challenges (CLEAR).
