    2014 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 2014 Best Book award. Books nominated should have publications dates of 2012, 2013, or 2014.

    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 February 1, 2015.  For a full nomination, please email committee chair, Amy E. Smith, at
    AmyE.Smith@umb.edu for committee member contact information.

    Members of the Public and Nonprofit division may informally email nominations to the committee chair Amy E. Smith at
    AmyE.Smith@umb.edu.  Nominations for the award should include the author's name, book title, publisher and date of publication.
