2021 Atlantic Schools of Business Conference
2021 | Pandemic Recovery
The COVID 19 pandemic has impacted every aspect of business. Every organization has been faced with the challenge of how to pivot and revise business plans and tactics for either the pandemic or the planned recovery. With this theme, we hope to encourage submissions of timely research that help explain organizational responses to the pandemic and/or provide guidance to both researchers and organizations as they move forward into the ‘new normal.’ We are especially interested in submissions on the topics of Equitable Recovery or Diversity and Recovery. As in previous years, submissions for proceedings papers and presentations or developmental sessions are welcome in either our themed or our standing areas (tracks).
