How Much Do I Tell You? The Interpersonal Dynamics of Self-Disclosure at Work

Self-disclosure is foundational to relationships, yet scholars are just beginning to uncover the complex interpersonal dynamics of exchanging personal (and sometimes stigmatizing) information in the workplace. This panel symposium is designed to move the field forward by gathering experts to share perspectives and recent findings from multiple conceptualizations of self-disclosure. Topics will include processes of disclosing and reacting to stigmatizing information about oneself or a colleague, as well as how self-disclosure more generally has been impacted by the shifting context of work. Finally, attendees will have the opportunity to engage with each other and the panelists.
