WHAT: OMT New and Returning Member Networking and Research Forum
WHEN: Friday, August 4, 2016, from 4:30 PM – 6:00 PM (Atlanta Marriot Marquis, Rooms: M302,303)
DESCRIPTION: If you are new to the Organization and Management Theory (OMT) division, are interested in joining OMT, or are an established member who has been away for a while, then this forum is for you! This forum was created especially to help members to feel "at home" in the OMT division. We designed the forum so that you can meet leading scholars in the OMT division, meet other new members of the division, and discuss research with other scholars who share similar interests. The forum will include a welcome and overview of the OMT Division and research discussions moderated by renowned scholars who actively conduct research in a particular area of interest. As a participant in the forum, you can self-select into several research themes of your choice. Research themes will be organized by theory, context and methodology. All attendees are encouraged to also attend the OMT Cafe sessions scheduled throughout Friday and Saturday in nearby cafes.
