Come visit our Entrepreneurship Division Sponsored Panel Symposium
entitled: Next Steps in Brain-based Research and the Firm:
Entrepreneurship to Organization Behavior
When: Tuesday, Aug 10 2010, 1:15 PM - 2:45 PM
Where: Le Palais Des Congres, 510D
Abstract:
Over the past decade organization researchers in a variety of fields from
entrepreneurship to organization behavior, ethics, finance and strategy
have observed and studied the research and experimental methodologies of
neuroeconomics, specifically those that intersect with decision-making and
the organization. These methodologies have presented organization
scholars with a new arsenal of tools that allows them to reexamine long-
held but possibly incomplete theories, and to develop more robust theories
that can model the complexity of human behavior within an organization.
This panel symposium brings together leaders in adopting brain-based
research methodologies, researchers in entrepreneurship and organization
behavior that have seen the potential value in such methodologies and who
have applied them towards theories and questions important to organization
management and entrepreneurship. Our panelists have conducted fMRI and
hormonal experiments and reviewed streams of literature covering such
anomalies as the differences in uncertainty, risk and ambiguity as the
brain actually perceives them; unconsciousness and entrepreneurial
behavior; how the brain creates trust; greed and the global financial
crisis; gender stereotypes and implicit beliefs; hormonal influences on
decision making in the workplace – male and female; dopamine, expected
utility and decision making; and ethics and a variety of human behaviors
in the organization.
