- Strategies for Raising Concerns about Abrasive Behavior in Organizations
led by Kirsi Aulin, University of Colorado at Boulder - Demystifying Ombuds Work by Presenting Data for Impact
led by Lisa Yamagata-Lynch, the University of Tennessee at Knoxville - The 2020 Survey: Insights and Implications for Contemporary Practice
