Abstract
Much of organizational scholarship to-date has rested on the assumption that the organizations at which individuals work are centerpieces of their experiences. In this essay, we argue for a shift in perspective – namely, the de-centering of work organizations. We develop the lens of organizations as enablers of life and elaborate ways in which this perspective shift may appropriately re-orient organizational scholarship to account for a wider range of experiences at work in order to move our field forward.
