    The secret of success in getting a great Management teaching position is no
    secret. Currently every which school is interested in how you teach and
    research. Research acumen you can show. But teaching! One sure way to
    demonstrate an interest in and commitment to quality teaching is to
    participate in the Academy of Management Management Education and
    Development Division's 6th Annual Doctoral Student Management Teaching
    Workshop to be held at the annual Academy meeting in TORONTO on Sunday,
    August 6th, 8AM-noon. This event is open to doctoral students in all stages
    of their programs. (This is not the "new doctoral students" meeting).
    The workshop will involve seasoned teachers and doctoral students working
    together in a collegial exchange of ideas and experiences for cutting-edge
    teaching in management. Among the topics will be the transition process
    from student to faculty member and the time constraints and opportunities of
    new faculty members.

    All currently enrolled doctoral students are invited to attend. Applicants
    need not be current MED Division members, but are required to register for
    the Academy meeting.

    This year�s speakers include:

    Anne Huff, University of Colorado and Cranfield School of Management, UK
    Julie Chesley, United States Air Force Academy

    Co-facilitators: Rick Abderhalden, University of Washington, Tacoma
    David Lemak, Washington State University, Tri-Cities

    Please let me know by June 15th if you plan to attend,

    Collegially,
    Rick Abderhalden

    Another sure way to show commitment to teaching is to attend the
    annual Organizational Behavior Teaching Conference, the annual
    meeting of the Organizational Behavior Teaching Society. It's
    probably too late for this year, but next year the OBTC will be held
    at James Madison University, June 13-16, 2001. The conference
    offers reduced prices for doctoral students. You can contact me for
    information on the Conference, I'd be happy to send you all the
    particulars.

    The theme of the 2001 conference is "From 'Yes But' to 'Yes And':
    Collaborative Models of Management Education"
