The Paradox & Plurality Annual Meeting is an annual event organized by the Fundação Amélia de Mello (FAM) and the Center of Paradox and Organization. This annual event aims at discussing organizational and societal problems from a paradox perspective. This year’s meeting is devoted to the paradoxes of stability/change that permeate the changing nature of work, in which disparate research already exists but needs more dialogue to integrate within paradoxical and plural perspectives (Putnam, Fairhust & Banhart, 2016).
