Dear Colleagues
I am writing on behalf of the Academy of Management Mentoring Committee.
We are seeking nominations for our Mentoring Legacy Award. I have
attached the announcement for this award. We are asking you to please
post this information for the members of your division--in electronic
distribution lists and newsletters (or any other forum in which you
communicate with your members). This award provides a phenomenal
opportunity to visibly acknowledge the importance of supporting and
developing AOM members through the study and practice of mentoring
relationships. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to
contact me. If I need to speak with someone in particular to get the
announcement into your division's newsletter, please let me know.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Stacy Blake-Beard

Academy of Management Mentoring Committee
Mentoring Legacy Award Criteria
The Academy of Management Mentoring Committee is pleased to invite
applicants for the Mentoring Legacy Award. This annual award is given to
recognize scholars whose work has been germinal to the research and study of
mentoring. We seek to honor those individuals whose work has influenced and
shaped the mentoring discourse, both inside and outside of the Academy.
While we believe that one-to-one mentoring is very important, we are not
seeking nominations for individuals who have acted as mentors. Several
divisions offer "Best Mentor" awards for that type of activity.
Criteria for selection include: profound and enduring contribution to
research with important and innovative ideas; advancement of knowledge about
mentoring, including conceptual, empirical, or theoretical developments;
collaboration with more junior scholars in the field; and/or evidenced
influence on direction for future research in the field of mentoring.
Nominations are made by submitting a 1-2 page letter of support outlining
the contributions of the candidate accompanied by the candidate's cv.
Submissions must be received by February 1, 2004. The nominations will be
judged by a committee composed of members of the Academy of Management
Mentoring Committee. The recipient of the award will be notified by May 30,
2004. Please send nominations to:
Patricia Greene
Dean, Undergraduate School
Babson College
Babson Park, MA
