Potential areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

Theoretical and/or empirical contributions on recent developments and challenges in Green HRM practices and Sustainable Behavior
Multi-level and comparative perspectives on Green HRM practices, Sustainable Behavior and their respective antecedents and outcomes
Responses to challenges of Sustainable Behavior that materialize in tensions, contradictions or paradoxes of sustainability
Nested and multi-level paradoxes that result from the inherent complexity of sustainability in a workplace context as well as preferences, norms, and (dis-)incentives for Sustainable Workplace Behaviors
Mixed methods approaches for investigating Sustainable HRM/company policies, Sustainable Behaviors, and their interplay
Research into the process and outcomes of determining key issues and policies for Strategic Green HRM within and between companies

CfP: „Sagst Du mir, wer ich bin? Praxen der Selbst- und Fremd-Identitätisierung und ihre Folgen”

Die Herausgeber_innen der Zeitschrift für Diversitätsforschung und -management (ZDfm) bitten um Einreichungen für das Jahresheft 2023. Vor dem Hintergrund oftmals polemischer Debatten um Identitätspolitiken fragen wir grundlegender nach Ambivalenzen der Identitätsherstellung und alternativen Konzeptualisierungen sozialer Differenz(ierung)en. Bspw. interessiert uns: Welche sozialen Phänomene, Probleme oder Kämpfe werden mittels identitätsbezogener Lesarten sozialer Differenzen un-/sichtbar gemacht? Welche alternativen (Management-) Ansätze gibt es, Organisationen diversitätssensibel zu gestalten, ohne dabei in ‚alte Fallen‘ einer vermeintlichen ‚Differenzblindheit‘ zu tappen? Wie können Gleichheitsziele, oder auch andere, alternativ denkbare diversitätsbezogene Ziele besser oder anders erreicht werden?

Wir laden wissenschaftliche Langbeiträge theoretisch-konzeptioneller oder empirischer Ausrichtung ein, zudem Kurzbeiträge aus Wissenschaft und Praxis: Forschungsskizzen, Positionen sowie Praxiseinblicke.

Frist zur Einreichung von Abstracts: 15. März 2022.

IHRM Webinar Series: Migration & Business: Current Issues and Future Trends

This webinar series is a partnership between 5 academic institutions – showcasing experts bringing IHRM research & practice together

About this event
Over the past decades, global migration patterns have been undergoing significant, although often underestimated, transformations. The directionality, geographic spread, climate and urban migration, and skills involved have resulted in changes in demand and supply of the workforce. In turn, this has affected corporate human resource management and social sustainability practices as well as the diversity, inclusion, and internationalization strategies of firms. In this presentation, Aida Hajro and Milda Zilinskaite address the implications of these changes for the activities of multinational enterprises and highlight many unanswered questions and avenues for future research. The presentation is based on evidence from the interdisciplinary literature and supported by the first-hand insights from the Advisory Board members – leading scholars, seasoned practitioners, and policy and human rights experts – of the international Migration, Business and Society (MBS) network. One of the MBS board members, Paul Baldassari, will be joining the presentation to share concrete managerial implications from his migration management experience as the Executive Vice President of Operations Strategy & Former Chief Human Resources Officer at the multinational electronics manufacturer Flex Ltd.

Speakers

Paul Baldassari, Executive Vice President of Operations Strategy , Flex Ltd.
Aida Hajro, Assistant Professor at the Management Department of the Vienna University of Economics and Business
Dr. Milda Zilinskaite, Senior Scientist, Manager, WU Competence Center for Sustainability Transformation and Responsibility (STaR)

Date: 20 January 2022.
Time: 17:30 p.m. – 18:30 p.m. CET (Berlin, Paris, Zagreb)
Please register here. This event will be hosted virtually on Zoom. Event access links will be provided 24 hours prior to the event start.
