OMT/ODC/MOC DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM: CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS
OMT, ODC and MOC are glad to announce that their annual Doctoral Student
Consortium will once again be part of the pre-conference activities at
theAnnual Academy of Management Meeting in Philadelphia. Continuing the
glorious tradition started a few years ago, OMT, ODC and MOC co-organize
this Doctoral Consortium to help doctoral students organize their
thoughts about the final phase of their doctoral programs, advance their
research, publish their dissertation or parts thereof, find a job in the
academic or professional world, advance their career, and generally
achieve happiness and enlightenment.
This year, the Doctoral Consortium has incorporated several innovations
that will improve the participants' experience by allowing a greater
degree of personalization. In addition to the traditional stand-up
presentations by our awe-inspiring group of panelists (where our guest
Professors reflect on their experience and provide pearls of wisdom for
us to savor), we will also have several thematic roundtables where
participants will be able to interact with a distinguished group of
faculty, discuss topics of mutual interest, and pose those nagging
questions that they were always afraid to ask their mentors, advisors
and/or healthcare professionals.
In addition, we will once again be conducting our highly popular
research roundtables, where participants will be offered the opportunity
to discuss their dissertation research with distinguished scholars in
the field. As always, Sunday will include our Meet the Editors session,
where participants will be able to ask questions, again, in a round
table format, of editors from all the top journals.
For the sake of intimacy, and because round tables are limited in
diameter and quite difficult to expand, these thematic round tables will
be kept small; we will be maintaining a faculty/participant ratio of
5:1. Maintaining this ratio also ensures that the Doctoral Consortium
provides opportunities to accommodate the increasing diversity of
participants' backgrounds, experiences, and desires, and creates plenty
of opportunities to ask specific questions of our panelists and
facilitators.
In addition to conference co-organizers, Stuart Bunderson, Michael
Manning, Pablo Martin de Holan, Sandy Piderit, and Tim Pollock, this
year's panel (listed in alphabetical order) includes the following
scholars, who have generously agreed to contribute their time and effort
to the development of the OMT/ODC/MOC doctoral consortium's participants:
a.. Michael BEER (Harvard University)
b.. Bob HININGS (University of Alberta, Canada)
c.. Sharon MATUSIK (University of Colorado)
d.. Henry MINTZBERG (McGill University, Canada)
e.. Sue MOHRMAN (University of Southern California)
f.. Huggy RAO (Stanford University)
g.. Gretchen SPREITZER (University of Michigan)
h.. Bill STARBUCK (University of Oregon)
