On the basis of her current rese­arch on employee initiated complaints in perfor­mance appraisal inter­views, Birte Asmuß will share some reflec­tions about issues related to data analysis, data collec­tion and about the balan­cing between disci­pli­nary boun­da­ries (lingu­is­tics/socio­logy and manage­ment/busi­ness) when doing rese­arch in, with and for orga­niza­t­ions. In specific, she will reflect about the bene­fits and chal­lenges of using a micro­ana­ly­tical approach like Conver­sa­tion Analysis for the inves­ti­ga­tion of larger orga­niza­t­ional pheno­mena, about the diffi­cul­ties of nego­tia­ting access to collec­ting video data in orga­niza­t­ions, and finally about how to make conver­sa­tion analytic studies of orga­niza­t­ional life rele­vant for a manage­ment or busi­ness audi­ence.
