    2009 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 Chicago. 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. This award is designed to recognize a person who has
    demonstrated a long-term commitment to and expertise in teaching strategic
    management or educating others about strategic management. The focus of the
    2009 award is intended to recognize an outstanding educator in the area of
    doctoral and junior faculty education. Nominees should have at least 15
    years of service. Some manifestations of outstanding educator contributions
    might include:

    1. Mentorship of PhD Students. The person has been closely linked to the
    development of other outstanding scholars and in developing the
    scholarship of others. (For example, the person is actively involved in
    dissertation committees or participates regularly in Professional
    Development Workshops or other specialized workshops like CCC or DRUID,
    etc.).

    2. Mentorship of Junior Colleagues. The person has mentored or advised
    scholars beyond the dissertation advisor role by offering constructive
