Abstract 

Organizational routines have drawn much attention in several streams of research. However, empirical research on organizational routines is complicated by the fact that there are still different ideas in the literature on what organizational routines are, and how to operationalize them. Taking into account research on habits, the individual-level equivalent of organizational routines, in this talk I take stock of ways of operationalizing habits and organizational routines, to explore opportunities for empirical research that involves organizational routines.
