    > All-Academy PDWs and Symposia address issues of broad interest to members of
    > the Academy of Management and are directly related to the conference theme,
    > "Green Management Matters". We are looking for sessions that stimulate new
    > thoughts and behaviors. All-Academy Theme sessions are not for people who
    > want to sit back and listen; they are for people who want to be actively
    > engaged. Sessions can be either PDWs or Symposia. Examples of sessions we
    > would like to see include:
    >
    >
    >
    > * Sharing of best practices for Greening university operations.
    > * Discussions of international differences in Green government
    > policies and management practices.
    > * Alternative approaches to Greening the undergraduate, MBA, PhD and
    > executive curricula.
    > * Descriptions and demonstrations of green management teaching
    > resources.
    > * Research and theory on effective approaches to changing Green
    > behaviors.
    > * Panels of practicing managers describing their most difficult Green
    > challenges.
    > * Case studies of examples in which Green Management is changing
    > management practice.
    > * Scholarly discussions of how prominent theories might be applied to
    > this topic.
    > * Brainstorming sessions to develop new research agendas.
    > * Presentations and analyses of available Green Management metrics and
    > methodologies for use in scholarly research.
    > * Information sessions for teachers who wish to use Green Management
    > cases, exercises, simulations, etc. in core courses that focus on other
    > topics.
    > * Symposia that highlight the multi-level, interdisciplinary nature of
    > Green Management Matters.
