Are you a junior faculty member, post-doc or senior doctoral student who could benefit from a PDW on academic careers? Diamonds in the Rough (DIR) is a part of the Managerial and Organizational Cognition (MOC) Division's "in the rough" PDW series and is focused on turning academic careers into gems. At DIR, budding scholars receive advice from top scholars on developing their research stream, avoiding career pitfalls, and excelling in academic careers. This is a great opportunity for both getting personalized advice and expanding one's network of junior and senior scholars.
Facilitators this year include: Linda Argote (Carnegie Mellon), Markus Baer (Washington University), Shelley Brickson (UIC), Erik Dane (Rice), Tracy Dumas (OSU), Gerard Hodgkinson (Warwick), Elaine Hollensbe (Cincinnati), Jeff Loewenstein (Illinois), Bob Lord (Durham), Sally Maitlis (Oxford), Gerardo Okhuysen (UCI), Kristin Smith-Crowe (BU), Jeff Thompson (BYU), and Dusya Vera (Houston).
Who? DIR welcomes junior faculty who are in their first three years on the job, post-docs, and doctoral students who are in their final two years.
What? Please send application requests to: Jennifer.petriglieri@insead.edu. You will receive an acknowledgement of your request within 48 hours. Please include:
· Your current vita
· An overview of your research stream or streams, outlining major topics and different methodologies that you have used or plan to use. Please limit this to no more than 2 pages, double-spaced.
· Two questions about professional development. We want this workshop to address pressing issues for its participants, and will look for patterns in participants' concerns or needs at this point in their career. To this end, please draft two questions you would most like to hear addressed by senior scholars.
· The names of six or more facilitators with whom you would like to be matched. Please note that we cannot guarantee that you will be matched with these facilitators, but we will do our best.
Acceptance notices will be sent out on a first come first served basis. We look forward to receiving your applications!
