Dear OB members,
We will be hosting a Professional Development Workshop on Innovative Idea Management at the AOM meeting in Boston. We hope you will consider attending!
Who should attend: Scholars at all levels who would like to either learn from others' use of technology in managing their ideas or who would like to share their own approaches.
Why: As technology grows and our resources for managing scholarly ideas grow, our field can benefit from scholars coming together to share ideas for how to make the most out of the available resources.
When: Friday, August 3rd, 10:15-1:45pm.
Submission: 11309 | Sponsor(s): (OB) | PDW Cosponsor(s): MOC / TIM / OMT / MED / CAR Scheduled: Friday, Aug 3 2012 10:15AM - 1:45PM at Boston Park Plaza in White Hill Room

Organizer: Tiffany Schroeder; Case Western Reserve U.; Organizer: Weylin Burlingame; Weatherhead School of Management; Presenter: Fabrice Cavarretta; ESSEC Business School; Presenter: Yochi Cohen-Charash; Baruch College & Graduate Center, CUNY; Presenter: Mary K. Foster; Morgan State U.; Presenter: Darja Gutnick; U. of Groningen; Presenter: Weylin Burlingame; Weatherhead School of Management; Presenter: Julia Eisenberg; Rutgers U.; Technological tools pervade our academic work lives, but we rarely get to see how colleagues incorporate these tools into their everyday work flow. This session will focus on sharing techniques for managing thoughts in the academic writing process. Presenters will demonstrate their own adaptation of various tools (e.g. note taking programs, citation managers, concept mapping technologies, task management resources, etc.) and discuss how these play into the larger work flow. All participants will then engage in table discussions on a specific aspect of the writing process, sharing their own approaches and brainstorming new possibilities for leveraging technology in service of that aspect of their work. Each table will then report out to the larger group. This PDW offers scholars a chance to build a collective knowledge store from which individual scholars can select and tailor ideas according to their own writing needs.
