2013 IRWIN OUTSTANDING EDUCATOR AWARD NOMINATIONS
The Business Policy and Strategy (BPS) division of the Academy of Management requests nominations for the Irwin Outstanding Educator Award, to be given at next year's annual meetings in Philadelphia. The BPS division has recognized Outstanding Educators with an award given every other year since 1987. In 1991, the publishing company Richard D. Irwin established a $25,000 endowment for the award, thereafter named the Irwin Outstanding Educator Award.
