In recent years, many calls have been made to humanize institutionalism—to enrich accounts of the lived experience of institutions and the implications of this lived experience for institutions and people alike. This panel symposium gathers together some of the key figures behind this agenda to share their core perspectives and latest ideas. Because the lived experience of institutions is multi-faceted, the panel draws together thinking on the interface of institutions with several experientially relevant constructs—emotions, values, and identities—and explores opportunities for integration and cross-fertilization across multiple associated streams of institutional theorizing. Ultimately, the panel aims to provide in-depth explorations of specific themes, insights and literatures that can enrich and extend current theorizing on the lived experience of institutions and to introduce integrative frameworks that could be used to synthesize these intersecting lines of theory and research.
