The 83rd Annual Meeting of the Academy of Management took place in Boston, Massachusetts, USA from 4-8 August. More than 10,000 members from around the world gathered to explore the theme Putting the Worker Front and Center throughout 2,000+ scholarly sessions.

Iris Seidemann, along with Soniya Rijal and Rima Al Hasan, co-organized a Professional Development Workshop (PDW) titled "Globalizing Paradox Theory and Research." This interactive session aimed to explore the generation of theories and research from contexts beyond the Non-WEIRD (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic) world. The PDW featured round table discussions and a panel discussion moderated by Marianne Lewis.

Additionally, Iris presented the paper titled "Nobody Said It Was Easy: System-Level Dynamics in the Emergence and Navigation of Multi-Actor Paradoxes," which was co-authored by Daniel Geiger and Lisa Harborth. This presentation took place in session 1150, "Paradox Theory and Research in Organizations and Management." The paper received recognition as the "Best Paper" in the 83rd AOM Proceedings and was nominated for the OMT Responsible Research Award.
