DescriptionWhy do so many new ventures seem to have it all and yet fail to grow their business and transition to mature firms? As only a handful of startups succeed in organizational scaling, this phenomenon has garnered much attention from academics as well as industry practitioners. In particular, given the complexity in and around this phenomenon, a growing body of work has started to apply a variety of theoretical lenses and research methods to provide a systematic understanding of organizational scaling. The purpose of this professional development workshop is, thus, to draw attention to these latest scholarly developments and to enhance engagement across disciplinary and methodological boundaries, with the goal of promoting our comprehensive understanding of various aspects of organizational scaling. To this aim, we have gathered five prominent scholars with expertise and cutting-edge research in organizational scaling. These panelists will, first, frame our session by sharing each other's recent work on organizational scaling. Then, a subsequent panel discussion and audience Q&A will synthesize these presentations and push our collective thinking forward to inspire future research and directions on organizational scaling. Overall, this workshop will offer a structured opportunity to stimulate new research ideas and methods on organizational scaling and to network with scholars that share an interest in this strategically important yet under-explored phenomenon.
