Aim
***
The aim of the Symposium is to consolidate, integrate, and further develop ongoing efforts to advance a sophisticated process perspective in organization and management studies.
PROS is an annual event, organized in conjunction with the annual series Perspectives on Process Organization Studies (published by Oxford University Press), and it takes place in a Greek island, in June every year. Topics in the last three years have included: “Organization routines: How they are created, maintained and changed”, “Skilful performance: Enacting expertise, competence, and capabilities in organizations”, and “Dualities, dialectics, and paradoxes in organizational life” (details of all Symposia so far can be seen at www.processsymposium.com).

Around 100 papers are usually accepted, following a review of submitted abstracts by the conveners. PROS is renowned for offering participants the opportunity to interact in depth, exchange constructive comments, and share insights in a stimulating, relaxing, and scenic environment.
The Ninth Symposium will take place on 22-24 June 2017, at the Helona Resort, Kos,
Greece (http://www.helona-resort.com). It will be preceded by Pre-Symposium
Workshops on 21 June 2017. The Symposium venue, modern, comfortable, and situated in
a beautiful location by the sea, will provide an ideal setting for participants to relax and engage in creative dialogues.

The Symposium is organized in two tracks – a General Track and a Thematic Track.
