2014 Professional Development Workshops: Call for Proposals
Annual Meeting August 1 - 5, 2014
Philadelphia, PA
The Public and Nonprofit Division (PNP) encourages creative PDW proposals that relate to the 2014 Conference theme of "The Power of Words." These sessions will be scheduled between Friday 8:00 am and Saturday 8:00 pm in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. We are especially interested in proposals that:
* Showcase the conference theme explicitly through public and nonprofit management issues;
* Complement our Doctoral Student Consortium (job searching, career development, course development, publishing, etc.);
* Explore teaching and research in different settings (international, interdisciplinary, cross-sectoral);
* Examine timely issues for research and teaching (external funding in economic downturns, performance measurement for professors, opportunities of social networking);
* Foster collaboration between practitioners and academics;
* Address timely and important issues (Public Private Partnership, Public Management for Competitiveness, Social Media, Digital Communication Technology, Humanitarian Emergencies, Health Care, Social Security, Civic Engagement, the Economic Crisis, etc.);
* Invite and encourage co-sponsorship with other divisions and have varied and multiple participants.
Non-traditional formats are especially encouraged. We discourage only traditional paper presentations. Please submit your PDW proposals at
http://aom.org/annualmeeting/submission/.
The deadline for proposals is January 14, 2014 by 5:00pm ET (NY Time) (but earlier is better!).
