Following in the footsteps of its first edition in 2011, the 2nd Symposium on Ethics and Social Responsibility Research-2013 is intended to promote a dialogue between the research lines which converge in the quest  for scientific  understanding of the current challenges of ethics, sustainability and social responsibility in organizations. SESRR will also address the complexities of individual ethical decision-making processes in organizational settings. It aims not only to discuss theoretical models and empirical results, but also debating the organizational strategies and the intervention practices in these areas, which are particularly at stake in the context  of the economic crisis nowadays. Issues such as the prevention of misconduct in organizations or the relationship between individual’s ethical behavior and the strategies for the economic recovery will be discussed at specific forums.

Following in the footsteps of its first edition in 2011, the 2nd Symposium on Ethics and Social Responsibility Research-2013 is intended to promote a dialogue between the research lines which converge in the quest  for scientific  understanding of the current challenges of ethics, sustainability and social responsibility in organizations. SESRR will also address the complexities of individual ethical decision-making processes in organizational settings. It aims not only to discuss theoretical models and empirical results, but also debating the organizational strategies and the intervention practices in these areas, which are particularly at stake in the context  of the economic crisis nowadays. Issues such as the prevention of misconduct in organizations or the relationship between individual’s ethical behavior and the strategies for the economic recovery will be discussed at specific forums.

SESRR will be held at ISCTE-IUL on 27 and 28 June 2013 and it is organized by the Human Resources and Organizational Behavior Department and BRU-IUL (Business Research Unit) of ISCTE-IUL. A local organizing committee and an international scientific committee will give the necessary support to this event.

We are committed to have an exciting and valuable scientific program, including the presence of some renowned keynote speakers. Interactive symposia, poster presentations and thematic sessions will serve as the basis for what we hope will be a dynamic medium for knowledge sharing.

We believe that this Symposium may be an important step to promote the dissemination of knowledge on Ethics and Social Responsibility Research. That’s why we are pleased to announce that a selection of the best papers will be published in a special issue of Management Research: The Journal of the Iberoamerican Academy of Management.

Last, but not least, networking or simply having a good time may be also good reasons to join us at Lisbon. In June, weather conditions are usually stable with temperatures around 25 – 30 degrees Celsius thus inviting to rediscover Lisbon, one of the world’s great historical cities, the city of the oceans, with sunsets on the sea, enabling visitors to combine culture with fun.

The Symposium on Ethics and Social Responsibility Research cordially invites you to submit proposals for Interactive symposia, Oral or Posters presentations. The deadline for proposal submission is 17 March 2013.

English is the official language for all symposium presentations.
