The SIM Research Committee warmly invites you to an upcoming virtual professional development workshop:
Seasoned Researcher Connection: Conversations for Experienced Social Issues in Management Scholars
Date: Friday, April 24, 2026
Time: 10:00–11:00 Central / 11:00 AM Eastern / 4:00 PM London / 5:00 PM Paris

Passcode: 464830
The goal is simple: create a space to discuss the real challenges that emerge as academic careers evolve.
Rather than formal presentations, the workshop is structured around interactive roundtable discussions, allowing participants to move across topics or stay where the conversation is most useful.
🌱 Discussion topics include:
- Securing research funding
- Navigating methodological challenges
- Managing co-investigator relationships
- Dissemination strategies
- Research social impact
- The role of AI in research
🌱 Who should join:
- Mid- and late-career SIM scholars
- Researchers looking for peer exchange rather than polished talks
- Scholars interested in building connections and discussing ongoing challenges
🌱 How it works:
- Join the Zoom session and select a themed breakout room
- Participate in 20-minute roundtable discussions
- Rotate across topics or stay in the same group
No slides, no formalities. Just honest conversations with people facing the same problems. You can download the calendar invite attached to this message.
We hope you can join.
