    We hope many of you will be able to join us for our Academy of Management
    PDW session on fostering research on international gender and diversity
    issues. We believe you will find this interactive session to be a unique,
    exciting experience to discuss current and future research opportunities
    in a global context with outstanding international leaders in the field.
    Our plans are to develop two special issues of journals based on the
    session.

    In addition, we hope you will consider joining us for a special dinner
    including all interested in exploring international GDO research in a less
    formal setting at Fulton’s on the River restaurant.

    Everyone is welcome, and we do hope that you will join us for an evening
    of socializing and fun.

    We wish we could pay for everyone, but unfortunately there is no specific
    funding for the event. Thus, it will be an individual payment dinner, and
    we have arranged for individual checks.
