Dear Colleagues,
The European Academy of Management annual conference will be held in Rotterdam, June 6-8.
I have the great pleasure in inviting you to submit a paper to the General Track of the new Special Interest Group in Organizational Behaviour -TRACK 53: Organizational Behaviour General Track.
Organizational Behaviour deals with the study of individual and group behaviour in the organizational context. A new frontier of organizational concerns is rising with a series of emerging issues facing the world in the 21st century: immigration and increasing workforce diversity, technological innovation that is radically changing the way we work, the popularity of teamwork, the use of new flexible work arrangements, flatter organizational structures, unemployment and underemployment during a period of economic downturn are rising new topics of organizational behaviour and giving new meaning to existing theories.
The Organizational Behaviour Special Interest Group aims at promoting research and networking interests in the individual and group behaviour in the organizational context by providing a wide-ranging, engaged and internationally-focused forum to discuss and develop research and practice in the field. Conferences develop around a variety of papers on both well- established topics and in different new streams of research.
Research on organizational behaviour addresses issues facing today's organizations such as immigration and increasing workforce diversity, technological innovation, teamwork, the use of flexible work arrangements, and leadership in flatter organizational structures. The purpose of this Strategic Interest Group in Organizational Behaviour is to develop an ongoing and constructive dialogue among organizational behaviour scholars to conduct research that is relevant for management theory and practice in the contemporary world.
The OB SIG welcomes high-quality empirical and theoretical papers, which focus on the "micro" level OB phenomenon dealing with individual and small group behaviour, as well as the more "macro" level elements dealing with organizational change and innovation. We encourage studies that adopt novel theoretical perspectives, use different research methods – quantitative, qualitative, and multilevel methods-, and examine organizational behaviour across different cultural contexts. The OB SIG offers Best Paper and Best Reviewer Awards.
The deadline for the submission of full papers is 17 January 2012, 2:00 p.m. Brussels time. For more information on the conference, please visit the official website of the conference:

We are looking forward to receiving a lot of interesting submissions.
