Call for Proposals

We are pleased to announce that the Organization and Management Theory (OMT) division will once again hold its Global Research Consortium as part of the Academy of Management (AOM) Annual Meeting. This consortium is tentatively scheduled to be held on Saturday, August 10. The consortium will be in person in Chicago, USA.

This consortium is a forum for organizational scholars studying under-represented non-western settings across domains (micro/macro) and fields (organization theory, strategic management, organizational behavior, entrepreneurship, and so on). It includes showcase presentations, feedback sessions, and panel discussions on topics such as developing organizational scholarship using global settings, mentoring for research based in international contexts, and strategies for overcoming challenges and exploiting opportunities for high-quality organizational research using diverse settings.

Scholars at all stages of academic careers are invited to apply. We particularly welcome scholars who would like to conduct or expand their research to under-represented non-western regions of the world.

The consortium will include:

  1. Showcase presentations on global research
  2. Roundtable discussions and feedback on research proposals
  3. Networking opportunities with peers and faculty mentors

This year’s faculty mentors offer diverse scholarly and geographic perspectives and experience with the challenges of conducting research around the world. Many have been editors for leading journals, won research and teaching awards, and published high-quality research in international settings. Faculty mentors include:

  1. Jordan Siegel (University of Michigan)
  2. Anca Metiu (ESSEC Business School)
  3. Markus Taussig (Rutgers Business School)
  4. Y ujin Jeong (American University)
  5. Andrew Spicer (University of South Carolina)

15. Aline Gatignon (University of Pennsylvania) 16. Arzi Adbi (National University Singapore) 17. Pablo Fernandez (University of Navarra)
