ACADEMY OF MANAGEMENT
Public and Nonprofit Division
2016 Best Book Award Announcement
The Best Book Award selection committee for the Public and Nonprofit Division of the Academy of Management is requesting nominations for the division's 2016 Best Book award. Books nominated should have publications dates of 2013, 2014, or 2015.
Members of the Public and Nonprofit Division pay special attention to how distinctive qualities of the public and nonprofit sectors influence management and organizational processes. Books nominated for the Award should significantly contribute to modern management theory and/or practice and address issues within the Public and Nonprofit Division's domain of interest. Author membership in the Division or the Academy of Management is not a criterion in the award process. Because of the interest in the substantive intellectual contribution of the book, nominations of textbooks, or books of previously published papers are discouraged. The winning author (s) will receive a plaque recognizing the award.
Nominations are due March 5, 2016. For a full nomination, please email committee chair, Corrado Cuccurullo, at
corrado.cuccurullo@unina2.it (or
cuccurullocorrado@gmail.com) for committee member contact information.
Members of the Public and Nonprofit division may informally email nominations to the committee chair Corrado Cuccurullo, at
corrado.cuccurullo@unina2.it (or
