    Partnering with the International Management Division
    for Professional Development Workshops for AoM 2006

    Partnering with several divisions is a way to maximise
    exposure of your PDW and use of the PDW time budgets
    allocated to each AoM division.

    The International Management Division (IM) is
    dedicated to research and teaching pertaining to the
    theory and practice of cross-border and cross-cultural
    management. The goal of the Professional Development
    Workshops (PDW) is to provide a forum for effective
    exchange and collective learning that would enhance
    further the professional skills of our members.

    With this in mind, we invite submissions for
    innovative, exciting, interactive, and high-impact
    pre-conference initiatives related to teaching (e.g.,
    new topics in IM, innovative teaching methods) and
    research (e.g., mew research methodologies, research
    development of junior members). Given the unique
    multi- and inter-disciplinary nature of our field, we
    encourage joint proposals with other Academy divisions
    as well as with groups outside our normal mainstream,
    such as corporations, consultancies, NGOs and public
    sector organizations. In the spirit of continuous
    internationalization of our own membership, we welcome
    submissions from colleagues from outside North America
    and from international teams, in particular.

    The proposal submission form can be downloaded from
    the 2006 Academy’s annual meeting website,
    http://meetings.aomonline.org/2006. Completed forms
    should be e-mailed to PDW chair Tatiana Kostova at
    imdpdw@moore.sc.edu. Deadline for submission is
    November 10, 2005, however, you are welcome to contact
    Tatiana Kostova anytime after October 1, to express an
    interest or informally discuss your proposal. Note
    that there is limited space on the PDW program and we
    cannot guarantee that all proposals will be accepted.
    Some IM division PDWs, such as the Doctoral Student
    and Junior Faculty consortia are planned well in
    advance and take priority in scheduling. All PDW
    participants must commit to participation in advance
    by signing a consent form. Please visit our website
    at http://divisions.aomonline.org/im/ to learn more
    about the IM Division.
