Greetings,

Friday the 13^th is almost upon us.  For the superstitious, good luck.  For the rest of you, Friday the 13^th is also the deadline for pre-registering for the Professional Development Workshops (PDW) at this year's Academy of Management Meetings.  Below is the list of PDWs sponsored or co-sponsored by MOC.  As you make your plans for Philadelphia, consider coming a bit early to take advantage of these opportunities to explore unique ideas in a non-traditional Academy format.  Once again, please note that participation in many of these PDWs does require some form of pre-registration to be completed no later than July 13th.  See the on-line AoM program for information on pre-registering (https://secure.aomonline.org/PDWReg/logon.asp). I look forward to seeing many of you at the Meetings in August.  I hope you are having a relatively cool summer (or winter depending on your location).

Dick
