IM Division Junior Faculty Consortium (JFC) 2025

Co-Chairs: 

Joao Albino-Pimentel (University of South Carolina) and 

Srividya Jandhyala (ESSEC)

The International Management (IM) Division will hold its annual Junior Faculty Consortium

(JFC), during this year’s Academy of Management Meeting in Copenhagen. This half-day, in-

person event will take place on Sunday, July 27th, 2025. The deadline to apply is Monday, June 2nd, 2025.

The IM Division JFC is designed for junior and early career scholars who have defended

their dissertations in the last 1-5 years and are building their academic careers in the IM

field. The consortium provides a unique opportunity for junior faculty to engage in

conversations around critical issues of their careers, research, publishing, teaching and

service with leading IM scholars from around the world and with their peers.

The consortium will include a combination of structured panels on multiple themes,

roundtable discussions on pressing issues, and informal interactions. Notably, we will debate the challenges and opportunities of an academic career in IM, getting tenure, building a scholarly reputation, developing a research/publishing strategy for a more significant impact on the field, and maintaining a healthy balance between research, teaching, and service.

The 2025 IM Division JFC will be chaired by Daniel Blake (IE Business School) and Cecilia Gu (Georgia State University).

The faculty mentors include:

  1. Ruth Aguilera – Northeastern University
  2. Lin Cui – Australian National University
  3. Jonathan Doh – Villanova University
  4. Sinziana Dorobantu – New York University
  5. Amy Hillman – Arizona State University
