The International Management Division will hold a junior faculty consortium at the 2006 Annual Meeting of the <st1:placetype w:st="on">Academy</st1:placetype> of <st1:placename w:st="on">Management</st1:placename> in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Atlanta</st1:city></st1:place>. It will be held on Saturday, August 12, 2006 from 8.30 am – 5.00pm at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis hotel.
The consortium provides opportunity for structured discussion and informal interaction between early-career faculty and a panel of senior faculty from around the world, on the themes of research, teaching and career development. It is an excellent forum for exchanging ideas and tips about research and teaching, as well as for expanding one's academic network. A significant part of the consortium will be devoted to paper development, where junior faculty will have the opportunity to present and discuss their papers or research proposals, in small groups.
