Erynn E. Beaton studies how nonprofit organizations are managed and led, with particular attention to how they respond to pressures like managerialization (adopting business-style management practices), how they combine service delivery with advocacy, and how they handled the COVID-19 pandemic. A significant portion of her work also examines sexual harassment and workplace power dynamics within nonprofit and fundraising contexts. Her research combines organizational theory with feminist and institutional analysis to understand the internal workings of nonprofit and social-enterprise organizations.

Publication output has been fairly steady over the last decade, with a notable peak in 2021 (partly driven by COVID-19-related nonprofit surveys) and a consistent output of several papers per year since.
