    Is this your first AOM Conference? This professional Development Workshop (PDW) was designed for you!!!!

    Friday, Aug 9 2019 10:15AM - 12:45PM at Boston Marriott Copley Place in Regis

    If this is your first AOM conference (or second? or nth, but its contents are of interest to you), join us in this New Member Workshop! We will provide attendants with the useful advice that we wish we had received when we first attended AOM! This will make your experience and membership at the Academy of Management meeting more profitable, productive and meaningful.

    The purpose of the proposed workshop is fivefold:

    1. introduce new members to the Academy of Management,
    2. welcome them to the Management History (MH) division,
    3. discuss volunteerism at AOM, and the meaning of volunteerism across cultures,
    4. present volunteering opportunities at AOM, and
    5. provide information about professional service that supports professional and career development, and the global academic community. For instance, we will discuss the role of discussants, reviewers, and other opportunities for volunteers, which are the building blocks that have made the AOM we see today.


    We will highlight the importance of building national and international research collaborations. Pre-registration is NOT needed; just show up and enjoy light refreshments with other new (and a few experienced) AOM members.
