    Hello all MED members

    This e-mail is to encourage you to consider running for election to one of the
    following positions if you are a member of the Management Education & Development
    Division (MED) of the Academy of Management. The offices to be elected at our
    August 2000 meeting are:

    SECRETARY (two-year term): responsible for keeping a record of the
    Division's Annual Business Meeting and any other duties or correspondence
    as may be requested by the Division Chairperson.

    MEMBERSHIP COORDINATOR-ELECT: responsible for building and sustaining membership
    through recruiting and coordinating a membership committee. The members of the
    membership committee shall be chosen at the discretion of the Membership
    Coordinator.

    PRACTITIONER LIAISON-ELECT: responsible for promoting, encouraging, and
    supporting liaisons with practitioners of management training, development,
    and education with the goal of sharing their knowledge with the Division's
    members and vice versa.

    RESEARCH COORDINATOR-ELECT: responsible for promoting, encouraging, and
    supporting research efforts consistent with the purposes and mission of the
    Division and may select, in consultation with the Division Chairperson, a
    committee to assist in fulfilling these responsibilities. The Research
    Coordinator will also administer all awards as designated by the Executive
    Committee.

    AT-LARGE NOMINATING COMMITTEE MEMBER: The nominating committee is charged with
    soliciting nominations for our elections from MED's membership.

    Please note that the �Elect� positions involve a 2 year commitment, the first as
    a mentee, and the second in the position, itself. Please send your name in to me
    (bferris@wnec.edu) or any member of our committee with a brief bio if you are
    interested in any of these positions. Serving in an office is a great way to
    promote our academic ideals and gain from extending our academic networks.
    Again, we encourage your involvement in MED!

    Thanks.

    Best,

    Bill Ferris, Chair, for the MED 2000 Nominating Committee
