Dear colleagues,
We're delighted to invite you to our upcoming Professional Development Workshop at the Academy of Management 2025:
🧠 PDW 11056: The 1.3 Billion People Question – How Disability Extends What We Know About Social Symbolic Work
📅 Date: Saturday, July 26, 2025
🕒 Time: 15:00–17:00 CEST (GMT+2)
📍 Location: Bella Center, Hall C – C4-m3
This workshop explores how disability-impacting over 1.3 billion people globally-can deepen, challenge, and expand key ideas in social-symbolic work. Together, we will examine emerging research on disability work, engage in inclusive small group conversations, and reflect on how different bodies and minds reshape theory.
If you're interested in symbolic work, critical management studies, or diversity, equity, and inclusion, we warmly welcome your voice in the room.
Feel free to share this invitation with others who may be interested.
We hope to see you there!
Warm regards,
Anica Zeyen and Oan Branzei
