    TOPIC:  Love and Organizing

    Public culture is full of references to the power of Love, yet in business and management the word "love" is rarely used. The goal of this Panel Discussion is to broaden our individual and collective literacy for relevant concepts that can humanize management. We will hear from distinguished researchers and discuss a natural science perspective as well as an social science perspective to the role of love in organizing.
