Panelists: Jim Diefendorff (U of Akron), Gabrielle Durepos (Mount St. Vincent), Bill Glick (Rice U.), Tim Hubbard (U of Notre Dame), Kate Keeler (Virgina Commonwealth U.), Anca Metiu (Essec Business School), Timothy Ott (UNC Chapel Hill), Oleg Petrenko (Texas Tech. U.), AND MORE!
Key Benefits: (1) Opportunity to learn from and interact with leading scholars and methodologists; (2) all sessions (except the consortium reception) occur outside of the AOM conference time frame; (3) online participation; and (4) no rule limiting the number of participants per school for this consortium (we may accept multiple doctoral students and faculty members from the same program).
Who Can Apply? Anyone interested in research methodology can apply, especially (1) doctoral students seeking deepening expertise in research methodology; and (2) junior faculty seeking professional development. All participants will require a computer and a good Internet connection.
Do I Need to Be a Methods Researcher to Participate? No! The consortium is open to researchers of all areas who wish to strengthen and develop their methodological skills.
Do I Need to Be a Member of the Research Methods Division to Participate? Yes. If you are not currently a member of the RM Division, you will pledge to join the RM Division when you next renew your Academy of Management membership. You can either change your two divisions to include the RM Division or you can add an additional division membership for only $11. Information on adding a division can be found at this link.
What Will I Need to Complete this Application? Your CV, and a short bio (less than one page) that includes any specific interests in research methods. If you are a graduate student, you will also be asked to provide the name and email address of a faculty advisor or mentor who supports your application.
