Dear OMTers,
We are very happy to announce that Ruthanne Huising is the winner of the 2023 Distinguished Educator Award from the Organization and Management Theory (OMT) Division of the Academy of Management.
This biennial award honors an OMT Division member who has made exceptional contributions to organization and management theory education. The purpose of the award is to celebrate individuals who have positively influenced educational practices within the broader OMT field. Ruthanne Huising is being recognized this year, for her work in founding and leading the Ethnography Atelier, a collaborative space promoting qualitative research through seminars, workshops, blogging, and podcasting. The Atelier offers methodological training for management and organization theory scholars in an inclusive manner, and fosters high-quality standards for ethnographic empirical research. Notably, the Atelier’s impactful website has received seventeen thousand visits so far, two-thirds of which come from outside North America.
Ruthanne Huising is currently a Professor and Director of the Work, Technology, and Organization Research Center at Emlyon Business School.
Ruthanne Huising will be recognized for this award during the OMT Business Meeting at the AoM Conference in Boston on Monday August 7. Please join us there to congratulate her!
Forrest
