Bringing Intersectionality into International Management Research: The Case of Language and Gender

In this panel symposium, we argue for the need to study language in international management from an intersectionality perspective. The purpose of this panel is to engage a group of panelists in a formal, moderated, interactive discussion of (1) the relationship between “language” and “gender” identities and effects on individual and organizational processes; (2) the implications of ignoring the role of gender in current language research; (3) the importance of drawing from intersectionality in IM research; and (4) how the combined effects of language and gender can be measured.
