Impostor Phenomenon is a phenomenon well-studied by psychologists. It is prominent in individuals with outstanding skills, and also very common in women. It may arise for a variety of reasons, two factors of them stand as very relevant of why it happens: family dynamics and pressure to perform at work. Imposter syndrome may carry important consequences not only for the person who suffers from imposterism, but also for those who surround them. When the “imposter” is in a supportive environment, this may help the person to cope with those feelings and with that lack of confidence, and they perform at the highest level possible.

Rebooting One’s Professional Work : The Case of French Anesthesiologists Using Hypnosis

15ème Prix académique de la recherche en management – Prix Syntec Conseil 2024 Professionals tend to strongly resist breaking from their professions’ core cultural tenets and it is unclear how some may voluntarily break from deeply ingrained views. Through our study of French anesthesiologists who practice hypnosis, we aim to better understand this little-explored phenomenon. Adopting hypnosis, a technique that many anesthesiologists consider subjective, contradicted a core tenet of their profession: the need to only use techniques validated by rigorous scientific-based research. Drawing on interviews and observations, we analyze how these anesthesiologists were able to change their views and reinvent their work. We find that turning inward to oneself (focusing on their own direct experiences of clients) and turning outward to clients (relying on relations with clients) played critical roles in anesthesiologists’ ability to shift their views and adopt hypnosis. Through this process, these anesthesiologists embarked on a voluntary internal transformation, or reboot, whereby they profoundly reassessed their work, onboarded people in adjacent professions to accept their own reinvention, and countered isolation from their peers.

The paradoxical faces of Coffee: Idealism and pragmatism in tension

Our study explores historical paradoxes in the coffee industry, focusing on the persistent tension between pragmatism and idealism. Paradoxes are defined as persistent conflicts between opposing yet complementary forces. For example, organizations must balance stability with the need for change. We analyzed the coffee industry in the United States over a century, from the 1910s to the 2020s, using archives from Harvard Business School's Baker Library and other specialized sources. Our research highlights the paradox between pragmatic concerns (such as coffee supply during wartime) and ideological values (like sustainability concerns in the early 2000s). This tension, influenced by historical contexts, is ever-present. For managers, it is crucial to adapt strategies to cultural trends while balancing practical and idealistic goals. Understanding this dynamic helps navigate the complex landscape of the coffee industry, and this lesson is applicable to other sectors as well.

What is shame?

La honte est une expérience émotionnelle qui survient lorsque vous ne répondez pas aux attentes des autres et que vous vous retrouvez avec une image négative de vous-même qui vous fait percevoir que vous paraissez inférieur ou faible aux yeux des autres. La honte ne survient pas uniquement lorsque nous faisons une action devant les autres, mais elle peut également survenir lorsqu'une personne de notre groupe agit d’une façon qui donne une mauvaise image de nous-même. La honte peut survenir pour des actions individuelles ou collectives.

What is frustration?

La frustration est une expérience émotionnelle négative très courante au travail dans un environnement client qui peut survenir dans diverses circonstances, généralement présentes lorsque nos objectifs sont bloqués, que l’on a un certain degré d'incertitude sur les causes du problème, que l’on pense que cette situation est injuste, et que l’on ne peut pas contrôler les choses. Ce qui se passe une fois que l’on se sent frustré, c'est que l’on peut soit « laisser tomber », soit persévérer, et ce que l’on fait en termes d'actions à entreprendre peut dépendre de facteurs personnels et environnementaux.

Menopause in Organizations : Education for All

Drawing from women's testimonials in The Guardian and from contributions of feminist writers, Virginia Woolf, Julia Kristeva, and Margaret Mead, we start a conversation on the positive and energizing aspects of menopause in the workplace. We propose a social interpretation of menopause that challenges a pervasive perspective of medical decline: A theorization of “the dialectic of zest,” as inspired by the writings of Margaret Mead. By problematizing the experiences of women going through this transition in the workplace, we reveal how well-intentioned awareness campaigns can lead to further stigmatization. We thus encourage organizations to not only favor an approach of “education for all” but also extend their social imaginaries beyond medicalized perspectives and coping views.

The effect of sanctions on macro talent management

The purpose of our study is to examine how the sanctions influence macro talent management. To do so, we review the macro talent management (MTM) framework alongside the literature on sanctions. Using the case of Russia we have collected data from 419 media publications discussing the effects of sanctions and analyzed them using critical discourse analysis. Our findings highlight the predominantly negative nature of the sanctions’ impact on MTM ecosystems, theoretically yielding closer links between the sanctions and the MTM framework, and human capital more specifically.

Experiences of self-care through Youtube yoga videos in times of crisis

Drawing on the Foucauldian technologies of the self, this study explores how individuals re-envision practices of wellbeing outside of traditional organizational contexts during extreme events. Based on a thematic analysis of 7,234 comments posted on the Yoga with Adriene YouTube channel in 2020, this study unpacks a technologically mediated practice of self-care, which we conceptualize as somametamnemata. Our findings illustrate three entangled aspects of somametamnemata relating to yoga, a form of bodywork: Caring about self through practicing yoga online; caring about self and others through sharing about yoga in written comments; and caring about self and others through responding to shared verbalizations of yoga. By situating the potentiality of individual wellbeing within ill-being, we shift debates and discussions of “corporate wellness” beyond organizational boundaries.

What is “shame”?

Shame is an emotional experience that occurs when you fail to meet the expectations of others and end up with a negative image of yourself that makes you perceive yourself to be inferior or weak to others. Shame does not only happen when we do something in front of others, but it can also happen when someone in our group does something that makes us look bad. Shame can arise for individual or collective actions.
