Presented by the AOM Ethics Education Committee, this forum explores key ethical considerations in qualitative research. Qualitative research plays a pivotal role in management research as we strive to understand social phenomena. However, conducting ethical qualitative research requires careful attention to issues such as informed consent, confidentiality, researcher bias, and the responsible interpretation of findings. Through a panel-based discussion, we will examine the challenges researchers face when navigating these issues amidst the rise of AI. Further, we will offer an opportunity for attendees to troubleshoot ethical dilemmas and explore solutions in a collaborative setting. Whether you are new to qualitative research or an experienced researcher, this presentation will offer valuable tools and frameworks to strengthen the ethical foundation of your research practices.
