Time:
11:30 am to 1:00 pm Sunday, August 11
Venue:
4th floor, Marriott Hotel (Grace room)
There are flourishing streams of research on emotions and on values in institutions. Yet most often, these forces are considered separately, focusing on emotions or values in institutional processes. This siloed approach misses the critical, complex and dynamic link between emotions and values. On one hand, emotions fuel engagement with or resistance towards institutionalized values; on the other hand, values shape and regulate emotional bonds. When we talk about admirable and admiration, shameful and shame, disgusting and disgust, the emotional experience and evaluative properties are inherently tied together. Emotions have important moral relevance and values have deep emotional implications. At times, what we experience as emotions and values align, creating an exponentially powerful force well beyond the scale of each of the two factors alone; at other times, emotions and values clash and move us in unexpected directions, driving institutional change and transformation.
In this Symposium, we bring together a panel of experts in institutional theory to discuss the critical relationship between emotions and values, considering what they bring to our lived experience, and how, together, they are so much more than the sum of their parts.
We're looking forward to seeing you in the session!
