Call for Participants

Strategic Leadership and Corporate Governance Interest Group
Saturday, October 6, 2012 1:00-6:00pm

August 13, 2012: Submission Deadline for Applications

The Strategic Leadership and Corporate Governance Interest Group is offering a research focused senior PhD/junior faculty and paper development workshop at the 2012 Strategic Management Society meetings in Prague. Although all members of the IG are invited to participate, preference will be given to junior faculty who defended their dissertations after September 2007 and PhD students who have defended proposals and are on the market.

This workshop will include panel discussions and a breakout session. Senior faculty panels will discuss non-traditional paths to happiness and success as well as their point of view as those who have seen many junior faculty make choices and what trade-offs those choices entail, and other questions of concern for junior faculty. A breakout session will provide opportunities for participants to discuss and receive feedback on their work in an informal setting.

Panellists include Laura Cardinal (Houston), Peter Klein (Missouri), Bill Schulze (Utah), Tomi Laamanen (St. Gallen), Bruce Lamont, (Florida State) and Gerry McNamara (Michigan State). Several more will be announced shortly.
