The Managerial and Organizational Cognition Division (MOC) encourages
you to submit your most creative ideas for PDW sessions. The
professional development workshops have become one of the most
intellectually rich and vibrant parts of the AOM meetings; and with your
help, MOC can continue that tradition! PDW sessions are scheduled
between Friday 1pm (August 3rd) and Sunday noon (August 5th). Pursue
Divergent Wanderings!
We encourage you to consider the conference theme – Doing Well by Doing
Good – as you create your proposal. Other timely issues, such as
identity, image, resilience, sensemaking / meaning making, shared
cognition, perceptual processes, rapid cognition / decision-making,
cognitive maps and structures, and countless others are also welcomed as
PDW topics. And remember, MOC encourages work that spans macro, meso,
and/or micro levels. Further information about possible topic areas is
available at the MOC website:
http://division.aomonline.org/moc/.
Provoke Divisional Wonder!
When possible, we also encourage you to create proposals that may be
relevant to more than one division. The more we can share “space” with
other divisions, the more PDW sessions we can house in Philadelphia!
Pan-Divisional Work!
Also, please remember that PDW formats are flexible and can be made to
fit a wide range of styles and needs. Think about developing PDWs that
feature Ph.D. students, junior faculty colleagues, “veterans” and/or
non-US based colleagues from a variety of disciplines. Some PDWs might
benefit from the inclusion of practitioners as well as academics.
Propose Divergent Workshops!
To submit a PDW proposal, please download and complete the PDW
submission form at the MOC website:
http://division.aomonline.org/moc/confmeet.htm.
When completed, send your form to Dick Blackburn at
moc2007@unc.edu by
November 1, 2006. Early submissions are encouraged, as there will be
limited space on the PDW program. Procrastination, Delay, Wrong!
Prepare, Develop, Write!
Please Don’t Waffle, but if you don’t have time to develop a full
workshop, feel free to pass along your suggestions for topics around
which the division might build a workshop.
Please Publicize and Distribute Widely!
