CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS
STR New Faculty Consortium
Saturday, August 11, 2018 (8.00am-5.00pm)
Deadline for Applying: June 1, 2018
Are you a new faculty member with interests in Strategic Management (STR) or transitioning into STR from a different field? If the answer is "yes," consider joining us for this year's STR New Faculty Consortium! It is scheduled to take place on Saturday August 11th 2018 at the AoM Meeting in Chicago.
Any BPS member who has completed her/his dissertation by September 2017 and is in the first through the third year of their academic career is welcome to apply. In addition, a participant should have a record of commitment to teaching and research in the Strategy/Business Policy field and should not have participated in prior BPS Junior Faculty Consortia.
The objective of the Consortium is to enhance the scholarship, teaching, and overall career development of faculty in the early stages of their careers. The consortium provides an excellent forum for discussing research and teaching and for expanding one's academic network.
The Co-Chairs for the 2018 Consortium are Anne Marie Knott (Washington University) and Kevin Boudreau (Northeastern University & NBER). We have recruited faculty panellists from top global research and teaching business schools, including keynote speaker Roberto Fernandez (MIT), as well as Sharon Belenzon (Duke University), Lyda Bigelow (University of Utah), Martine Haas (Wharton, University of Pennsylvania), Karen Hoisl (University of Mannheim), David Kirsch (University of Maryland), Adam Kleinbaum (Tuck, Dartmouth University), Jeff Macher (Georgetown University), Rich Makadok (Purdue University), Marco Tortoriello (University of Bocconi), Mark Zbaracki (Ivey, U of Western Ontario)
Highlights include interactive, panellist-led discussions on teaching, research, and tenure, as well as small-group discussions on topics such as service commitments, work-life balance, research funding, and other participant-generated topics. The program will also have an Editor's panel with representatives from leading Strategy and Management journals, such as the AMJ, SMJ, OS, MS and Strategy Science. The day will conclude with one-to-one discussions between panellists and participants on specific research projects that the participants are working on. We aim for an engaging, constructive and enjoyable day!
Please apply no later than June 1, 2018 by submitting the following items:
1. a current CV
2. a statement of teaching and research interests (one page maximum in total)
Please send applications by email to Anne Marie Knott (knott@wustl.edu) and Kevin Boudreau (kevin@northeastern.edu). If you have any questions, please email us anytime at the addresses above. We welcome your inquiries and very much look forward to the event. We will notify participants of their selection by June 22, 2018.
