The OMT division is pleased to present the annual OMT Junior Faculty workshop.

The roster of Faculty Fellows for the 2006 Workshop includes:
Beth Bechky (UC Davis), Stewart Clegg, (University of Technology Sydney), Rick Delbridge (University of Cardiff), Lex Donaldson (Australian Graduate School of Management), Kathleen Eisenhardt (Stanford University), Henrich Greve (Norwegian School of Management), Candace Jones, (Boston College), Theresa Lant (New York University), William Ocasio (Northwestern University), Mike Tushman (Harvard University), Ray Reagans (Columbia University), Jim Walsh (University of Michigan), Marvin Washington (University of Alberta)

On Sunday you will meet editors from leading journals of special relevance to OMT.  There is limited enrollment to ensure that Workshop Faculty Fellows and participants have ample time to interact in formal and informal settings.   We expect 30-35 new faculty participants and the 14 or so Workshop Faculty Fellows.  You are more than welcome to apply for yourself, but we also encourage deans, department chairs, and other senior faculty to suggest this to workshop to junior faculty whom they think would benefit from the Workshop experience.
