The OMT Division invites applications for the 2012 OMT Junior Faculty
workshop. If you have started a faculty position in the last few years, this
workshop is for you! The deadline for applying is June 3, 2012.
The consortium provides an intimate forum for interacting with senior
colleagues and peers about how to prosper in your academic career. The
workshop focuses on three areas: First, on developing your research for
publication with the help of seasoned scholars in your area; second, on
strategies for impact and growth as a scholar and teacher, and third, on
navigating the early years of building a successful faculty career in
diverse institutional settings.
You will have a chance to interact with an exciting team of Faculty Fellows
and diverse peers through developmental feedback on your research, panels,
roundtable discussions and informal conversations. The faculty mentors offer
diverse scholarly and geographic perspectives. Many have been editors for
leading journals and won research and teaching awards. The OMT website
offers more information about the consortium:
http://omtweb.org/early-career-workshops/junior-faculty-consortium.
The workshop will take place on the Friday prior to the Academy of
Management meetings in San Antonio. It starts with an optional informal
dinner/mixer on Thursday evening, August 2, at 6pm. The workshop program on
Friday, August 3, runs from 8:00am to 5:00 pm. Research and professional
development roundtables and panels run until 2:30pm. From 3:00 to 5:00pm,
the OMT Teaching Roundtables give you a chance to talk with exemplary
scholars-teachers in small groups about courses and techniques for high
impact teaching.
To facilitate close personal engagement, space for this workshop is limited
and participation is by application only. To apply or if you have questions,

Applications should include:

We look forward to meeting you in August!
