Cross-posted by Charlie Wankel, Mg-Ed-Dv listmaster:
Jane Schmidt-Wilk [
jschmidt@MUM.EDU] and Scott Herriott have just posted to
a sister list of Mg-Ed-Dv (AMINT-L) an invitation to join them in a
symposium (panel) proposal on distance management education for the Academy
of Management meeting in Chicago. As MED Division Chair-Elect, I urge all
interested to contact her immediately and leverage this opportunity. Also,
I invite other Mg-Ed-Dvers to use this list to locate co-presenters for
other topics. This is a wonderful use for this forum.
