Special Issue: Remote and Hybrid Work: Transforming People and Organizations in a New Era
https://pubsonline.informs.org/page/orsc/calls-for-papers
This special issue fosters new theories and policies for modern work practice involving remote and hybrid work in organizations and their multifaceted impacts on workers' lives within and beyond a workplace and across diverse occupations. In this special issue, we are interested in scholarship from the many disciplines and fields examining remote and hybrid work. We especially encourage cross-disciplinary papers that provide multiple lenses on these topics. We welcome papers that integrate multiple levels of analysis, compare multiple stakeholders and/or disciplinary lenses, and examine the possible mixed consequences of remote and hybrid work. Submissions open March 15, 2025 and close July 15, 2025.
Daniels School of Business PhD students are leading members of the next generation of innovative researchers, scholars and teachers. We are proud to support the next phase of their academic and professional lives.
