$2,000 Award: Best Paper in Public Management or Leadership Presented at the
2011 Public Management Research Conference
The Department of Public Administration at the Maxwell School of Syracuse University is pleased to announce the Howard G. and S. Louise Phanstiel Award for the Best Paper in Public Management or Leadership with an emphasis on strategic management presented at the 2011 national Public Management Research Conference. The award carries with it a prize of $2,000.
Howard Phanstiel earned his MPA at the Maxwell School of Syracuse University in 1971. Shocked and saddened by the lack of effective government response in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, Phanstiel and his wife, Louise, donated $5 million to the Maxwell School to bolster the training of public leaders and to generate first rate scholarship in public administration.
All papers on the topic of public management or leadership with an emphasis on strategic management accepted for presentation at the 2011 PMRC will be considered for the award. Authors need only to indicate that they would like their paper considered for the award when their final papers are submitted electronically. Papers will be judged by a committee of scholars. The winner will be announced in September, 2011.
The 2011 PMRC will be held June 2 - 4 on the Syracuse University campus. For more information about the conference, please visit the conference website at: http://www.maxwell.syr.edu/pmrc2011.aspx
