    Dear OMT members,

    On behalf of our editorial team, I'm writing to ask for your help in launching AOM's new journal, the Academy of Management Discoveries, and inviting you to a few AMD sessions at the AOM Philadelphia conference. 

    Your help is needed in three specific ways:

    1.      Submit your discovery to AMD of a phenomenon or issue that is substantively important yet poorly understood concerning management and organizations.  Please see Instructions for Contributors, and contact us with any questions.

     2.      Volunteer to review papers submitted to AMD.  Please see AMD Reviewer Guidelines and help us return to the initial model of reviewing papers so they reflect the authors' voices, as opposed to that of the reviewers or editors. 

     3.      When the first issue of AMD is released January, 2015, please express your consumer/reader preferences.  Suggest discoveries you want to read about, and participate in our electronic forum on reader views & comments

    Along these directions, we invite you to attend a few PDWs at the AOM conference on Saturday afternoon, August 2 in Philadelphia.

    1. "Publishing in AMD, A Workshop with the Editors," A PDW conducted by AMD Editors on Saturday, August 2, 4-6 p.m. in Loews Philadelphia Hotel, Regency Ballroom A.  Participants should pre-register for the PDW at this web site and submit 2000 word summaries of their possible papers to szaid@aom.org by June 30, 2014. Small groups of paper authors will meet AMD editors to discuss their papers at the PDW.
    2. "Video Ethnography in Practice: A Workshop on 'How to' Do it," A PDW co-sponsored by AMD with SAP, RM, BPS and ODC Divisions on Saturday, August 2, 4:15-7:15 p.m. at Sheraton Philadelphia Downtown Hotel in Freedom G.  .  Presentations and round table discussions with Curtis LeBaron as distinguished speaker, and Michael Jarrett, Feng Liu, Paul Spee, Charlotte Cloutler and Michael Pratt as presenters and discussants of multimedia approaches to analyzing video ethnographic data

    Thanks you so much for your help in launching AMD!
