    The University of New Hampshire's Whittemore School of Business and
    Economics invites applications for two tenure-track appointments in the area
    of Organizational Behavior and Management beginning September 2005.
    Applicants must have an earned Ph.D. degree in Organizational Behavior, or a
    closely related field, as well as a strong commitment to excellent teaching,
    superior scholarship, and the academic mission of a research university.

    For the first position we seek a colleague whose primary research expertise
    is in the area of leadership. We are particularly interested in candidates
    with expertise in the area of socially responsible leadership, ethical
    leadership, or leadership in a global context. We seek candidates with the
    ability to teach successfully across our undergraduate and graduate
    programs, skills in the design of experiential and project based learning,
    and pedagogical experience in cross-disciplinary faculty teamwork. This
    candidate must have teaching experience in organizational behavior and
    management at the executive level as well as evidence of successful
    interactions with the business community. Rank for this position is open.
    A full or associate appointment with tenure is possible for exceptional
    applicants. Appointment level will be commensurate with the candidate's
    achievement in scholarship. Applicants should send (1) a letter of interest,
    (2) curriculum vitae, (3) two publications or writing samples, (4) evidence
    of teaching effectiveness, and (5) contact information for three references
    including name, address, e-mail address, and phone number to: Dr. Carole K.
    Barnett, Chair, Faculty Search Committee, Department of Management,
    Whittemore School of Business & Economics, University of New Hampshire,
    McConnell Hall - Box OB-1, 15 College Road, Durham, NH 03824-3593 USA.

    For the second position, we seek a colleague with evidence of experience in
    teaching and curriculum development at the undergraduate level in the areas
    of organizational behavior and management. We seek candidates with the
    ability to teach successfully across our undergraduate and graduate
    programs, experience working with diverse student groups, skills in the
    design of experiential and project based learning, and pedagogical
    experience in cross disciplinary faculty teamwork. Specifically, we are
    seeking someone to assist us in the leadership and ongoing development of
    our undergraduate management concentration including the large introductory
    business course that we manage for all first-year students. This opening is
    positioned for an experienced Assistant Professor; however we will consider
    a higher rank. Appointment level will be commensurate with evidence of
    achievement in scholarship. The ideal applicant will have teaching
    experience/interest in areas such as organizational behavior, leadership,
    work force diversity, work team effectiveness, organizational structure,
    international management, or business ethics. Applicants should send (1) a
    letter of interest, (2) curriculum vitae, (3) one or two publications or
    writing samples, (4) evidence of teaching effectiveness and (5) contact
    information for three references including name, address, e-mail address,
    and phone number to: Dr. Vanessa Druskat, Chair, Faculty Search Committee,
    Department of Management, Whittemore School of Business & Economics,
    University of New Hampshire, McConnell Hall - Box OB-2, 15 College Road,
    Durham, NH 03824-3593 USA.

    Application review will begin February 2005 and will continue until the
    position is filled.

    socially responsible leaders, managers, and entrepreneurs through its
