Yuntao Dong: Algorithmic Control in the Workplace
About the event
In recent years, the increasing use of digital platforms has led to an unprecedented level of algorithmic control over various aspects of our lives, from online advertising to social media feeds and search results. As organizational behavior researchers, we are interested in understanding how the use of algorithmic control can revolutionize the workplace and reshape employees’ experiences and behaviors. In this talk, Professor Dong will provide an overview about the organization behavior research on algorithmic control and its influence in the workplace, followed by a series of her team’s ongoing research in this area. The purpose is to help students understand the concept of algorithmic control from an OB perspective and to demonstrate how scholars observe, conceptualize and conduct academic research. Together, this sharing will offer students with insights regarding conducting academic research and choosing academic research as a career path.
