This symposium explores a recently intensifying phenomenon of how actors manage their public identities in the #MeToo era – an era that highlights the tensions among those seeking distributive justice, due process, accountability, and endorsing psychological safety. We explore this phenomena through the lens of organizational justice, thereby broadening its application and relevance by raising new research questions and domains of study. In particular, we explore how one’s social identity shapes the aftermath of organizational conflicts, including how harshly (and why) actors’ actions may be judged and whether actors may (or may not) be forgiven, redeemed, and reintegrated. Three papers speak to these topics. Most of the symposium will be devoted to interactive discussions of each paper, then interactive discussion of the broad themes, questions, and challenges.
