Despite the considerable attention scholars have devoted to understanding organizational crises and crisis management, theoretical integration across disciplines remains limited. This panel symposium brings together researchers from public relations, communications, organizational behavior, and organization theory to address three questions which are foundational to the future of crisis management research: 1) How do we define an organizational crisis, 2) How can we integrate theories across disciplines to work towards a comprehensive theory of crisis management, and 3) How can crisis management research better provide value to managers, practitioners, and other stakeholders?
