The paper, co-authored with Ellen Nathues (Chair for Entrepreneurship, Organization, and Culture at the Leuphana º£½ÇÉçÇø of Lüneburg) and François Cooren (Chair of the Department of Communication at the Université de Montréal), received the most votes out of the 25 papers presented within the sub-theme. The paper was voted for by sub-theme attendees who have renowned expertise in the areas of communication and performativity within management and organization studies, and so marks a prestigious award.
Hollis’ paper will now be put forward alongside the other sub-theme award winners for the ‘best paper’ of the 2022 EGOS conference, with the EGOS board announcing their decision next summer.
