PNP Call for PDW Proposals

  • 1.  PNP Call for PDW Proposals

    Posted 10-29-2009 10:35
    The Public and Nonprofit Division (PNP) encourages creative PDW proposals
    that relate to the 2010 Conference theme of “Passion and Compassion in
    Management.”

    These sessions will be scheduled between Friday 8:00 am (8/6/10) and
    Saturday 8:00 pm (8/7/10) in Montreal, Canada.

    We are especially interested in topics that:

    - Showcase Passion and Compassion in public and nonprofit management;
    - Complement our Doctoral Student Consortium (methods, job search, career
    development, course development, publishing, etc.);
    - Explore teaching management in different settings (international,
    interdisciplinary, cross-sectoral, over time, etc.);
    - Discuss research agendas, methods, topics and approaches across different
    settings (future PNP topics, globalization, ;
    - Foster collaboration between practitioners and academics (consulting,
    economic downturn/layoffs/cutbacks; evaluations and assessments, etc.);
    - Address timely issues (Health Care in the US; Homeland Security;
    International Interventions; Diplomacy, Peacekeeping and Development; the
    Economic Crisis, etc.)
    - Invite and encourage co-sponsorship with other divisions (research
    methods, careers division, SIM, OB, OMT, etc.)

    Sessions can take a number of formats. Non-traditional formats especially
    encouraged. We only discourage traditional paper presentations. Please
    submit your PDW proposals at http://submissions.aomonline.org/2009 by
    completing all the fields required to understand both the concept, as well
    as logistical concerns.

    The deadline for proposals is January 15, 2009 (but earlier is better!).
