Dear STR Members,
In 2019 the STR Division will be awarding again, as in 2017, the Emerging Scholar Award and the Distinguished Service Award.
To nominate someone for either, send an email to Samina Karim, STR Division Chair Elect (samina@northeastern.edu) with either heading "Emerging Scholar Award nomination" or "Distinguished Service Award nomination". Please include a brief explanation as to why you are nominating the individual and either attach the nominee's CV or include a URL link. Self-nominations are accepted. Nominations for both will be accepted until January 18, 2019. The winners of both awards are selected by an STR committee.
2019 STR EMERGING SCHOLAR AWARD
The STR Emerging Scholar Award is given every other year, in odd-numbered years. The recipient will be a promising scholar who has established a research record of exceptional quality. The recipient will have a solid publication record and his/her scholarly contributions will already demonstrate an impact on the field of strategic management. Candidates will be judged by the relevance, academic contribution, theoretical and methodological rigor, and practical implications of their work.
Who is eligible: Scholars who received their PhD or doctorate degree within 6 years prior to the award year (so for eligibility in 2019, the candidate's final dissertation defense date must have occurred after January 2013) and who is an STR member.
2019 STR DISTINGUISHED SERVICE AWARD
The STR Distinguished Service Award is given every other year, in odd-numbered years. The recipient will be an STR member with at least 15 years of service to the field, who has made significant contributions to activities within the STR Division, the Academy of Management, and/or to the broader field of strategic management. Award criteria may include editorial contributions at journals or of edited volumes of strategy research, significant contributions to the Academy of Management, conference organizing, administrative roles, or textbook authorship. Those who have served as STR officers are ineligible until at least five years after their term ends.
Best wishes,
