Each year the OCIS Division sponsors a Junior Faculty Workshop just prior to the Academy of Management Annual Meeting. The purpose of the Workshop is to explore strategies and helpful practices for developing successful academic careers. The Workshop involves senior faculty participants and up to 25 junior faculty. This is an invitation to untenured faculty to sign up for the 2008 OCIS event.
The 2008 Workshop will be held on Friday evening (August 8th) and all day Saturday (August 9th) in Anaheim, CA, this year’s site of the Annual Meeting of the Academy of Management.
The senior faculty participating in this year’s Junior Faculty Workshop are:
- Cynthia Beath, University of Texas
- Nosh Contractor, Northwestern University
- John King, University of Michigan
- Ann Majchrzak, University of Southern California
This year’s topics include publication quality and quantity, tenure and promotion, and developing and fostering professional relationships. There is still an opportunity to shape the agenda and I would welcome any suggestions from those who will be signing up to attend.
Pre-registration for the Workshop is required. To register, go to the Academy of Management website at http://meeting.aomonline.org/2008/ Select Professional Development Workshops from the Main Menu on the left side, and then select PDW Registration. Proceed to Saturday and then locate the OCIS Junior Faculty Workshop. I would like everyone to gather for dinner on Friday evening. You will notice a $40 fee for the Workshop. The purpose of the fee is to cover dinner. If you would like to attend the Workshop, but will not be able to make the Friday dinner, then do not attempt to register using the Academy website. Instead, send me an e-mail expressing your interest in attending and I’ll take it from there.
If you have any questions about the Workshop or suggestions about topics you would like to see covered, please send me an e-mail (

) or call me at 561-297-3674.
Over the years, the OCIS Junior Faculty Workshops have played a very important role in helping hundreds of individuals develop their careers and build professional relationships. These events are critical and timely opportunities, and I strongly encourage the junior faculty in our community to give serious consideration to attending this year. I look forward to seeing you in Anaheim!
