Happy New Year!
The OB Division of the Academy of Management would like to request your help on two important items:
1. We are seeking reviewers for submissions to this year's Academy of Management Meetings. As the largest division of AOM, the OB Division will likely have over a thousand paper and symposia submissions and each need to be reviewed by multiple, high quality reviewers. If you have not already done so, please consider being a conference reviewer for OB this year! It is an important way to contribute to the Division and an opportunity to develop and sharpen your reviewing skills and stay current with the latest work happening in the field of OB. The review period will occur between January 21, 2014 and February 20, 2014. To sign up, please visit http://review.aomonline.org/, click the "Sign Up Now" button, and select the OB Division.
2. Please consider making nominations for two important awards from the OB Division – The Early/Mid Career Scholarly Achievement Award (Cummings Award) and the The Lifetime Achievement Award. In the time since this award was established we have had an outstanding set of award recipients, and we want to do our best to continue to recognize the very best in scholarship and high impact careers in OB. Details on the awards and nomination process are provided below. We hope that you will please consider making a nomination for one or both of these awards.
