Global Connections: GDO Broadening the AOM Experience for Emerging International Members
Our broad goal is to connect and integrate emerging international members - scholars from emerging economies (e.g., South Africa, India) and other geographies where our GDO membership is underrepresented (e.g., Latin America, Eastern Europe, Middle East, Oceania). The GDO’s Global Ambassadors will partner with AOM sister organizations to identify and recruit Management scholars around the world to take part in our PDW. Participants will be matched with mentors who will help them feel more integrated at the conference and more confident in their future AOM paper development efforts. Five panelists with connections to/in underrepresented/emerging economies will present ideas and facilitate roundtable discussion on overcoming outsider status at AOM and developing high-quality conference submissions. In alignment with AOM’s four driving goals, our PDW aims to (1) connect and integrate members of the global management/organization community who might otherwise be overlooked at AOM, (2) enha

New Ways of Seeing Theory
Over the past years, we have witnessed a growing crisis of confidence in the standard model of theorizing through propositions and hypotheses (“if, then” clauses), and the degree to which this model can by itself conceptually capture the complexity and dynamics of managerial and organizational phenomena (Alvesson, Gabriel and Paulsen, 2017; Delbridge & Fiss, 2013). The crux of this crisis relates to the dominance of this style of theorizing across theoretical and empirical work in our field, and indeed across quantitative and qualitative studies alike (Bluhm et al., 2011; Cornelissen, 2017). Critics highlight not only the rote and oftentimes blind adoption of the model (Kilduff, 2006; Cornelissen, 2017) but also point to some of its inherent weaknesses such as the ‘general linear reality’ (Abbott, 1988) that it presupposes and the correlational ‘net-effects thinking’ (Ragins, 2008) that lies at its core. As a way of theorizing, it often falls prey to a fallacy of reasoning by consequen

What is the Point of the Practical Implications?
This panel discussion addresses a core ideological dichotomy and barrier to the dissemination of actionable, relevant, influential, and helpful managerial advice arising from our research. On one hand, we lament the research-practice divide and provide practical implications sections in many of our articles, presumably because we hold that our work does have practical implications. Yet this practice is not universal. Many practical implications are poorly written, pro forma, and/or not actionable. On the other hand, organizational scientists do not universally endorse the importance of practical implications in academic articles. Bartunek and Rynes (2010) stated that there is another divide among scholars themselves in the extent to which they view practical implications from our research as necessary or indicated. The goal of this panel symposium is to gather senior scholars to discuss and debate the purpose of the practical implications sections of journal articles. Why do we write t

Broadening our In-sight by Developing Self-Awareness of Faculty and Future Business Leaders
Self-awareness is vital for business leaders and faculty who are classroom and research leaders. Subtle and strong emotions arise in business and research settings, in classrooms, and in general in dialogue with others. However, as part of our work in academia or business we are expected to be rational; emotions are not acknowledged or addressed in meaningful ways. Further, faculty and business leaders’ emotional states influence students’ and employees’ learning effectiveness and performance. Research tells us that leaders’ emotions and self-awareness are important in relationships, motivation, learning, and performance, and are at the root of what we value and experience. Therefore, it behooves us as faculty and business leaders to learn how to work with our inner experience and emotions by developing our self-awareness individually and in group settings. This not only fosters enhanced learning, but also models positive leadership abilities to students who will become business and co

Rise and Shine! How to Present Your Academic Research
With this workshop, we continue our successful previous AOM PDW and draw attention to the importance of presenting academic research in the best possible way. In academia, presentations at conferences or during seminars are key to communicating one's work. Conference presentations are a great way to reach a large audience, and seminar presentations are often required when on the job market. Presentations are even more important in these unprecedented times, because they often are the only point of contact with potential employers. Yet presentation skills receive scant attention during PhD programs and academic careers in general. To address this gap, in this PDW we identify the best (and worst!) ways to present academic research by focusing on the content and design of academic presentations, as well as presenter skills. In addition, we will address the important role of the context, or setting, in which the presentation takes place, with special attention to the intricacies of present

Gandhi’s Way in Greta’s World:Ahimsa/Non-Violence and Satyagraha/Truth for Swaraj/Self-Determination
Mahatma Gandhi inspired Dr. Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela, and others who fought for justice and left a lasting legacy, in India and abroad. 150 years after he was born, his name remains synonymous with his values of non-violent civil disobedience for holding on to truth as a path towards self-determination. As the world faces unprecedented global challenges of ever widening political divisions, climate emergency, gross economic inequalities, and the youth are rising up in social movements in many countries, it is time to have a necessary conversation about the Gandhi Way. We propose that the Gandhi Way is the path of ahimsa (non-violence) and satyagraha (holding fast to truth) towards swaraj (self- determination), at individual and collective levels, with non- cooperation, if necessary. This workshop brings together a panel of speakers with pluralistic perspectives on Gandhi’s values, so that through a participative public dialog we can assess their relevance today. Gandhi is bot

OSCM Joint Doctoral Student & Junior Faculty Consortium
The primary focus of the annual OSCM Division Joint Doctoral Student & Junior Faculty consortium involves an intensive research incubator session for doctoral students and junior faculty. After a brief welcome, we split up in small virtual breakout rooms, where doctoral students are asked to give a short (15 minute) presentation about their research proposal to a panel of senior and junior faculty who then provide feedback and guidance on each proposal. Subsequently, another doctoral student or junior faculty will have an opportunity to present their research programs describing how they are extending their dissertation research and/or starting new research streams. The doctoral students are expected to ask questions and learn about building a research identity. In addition to the research incubator session, this edition we also host a special “Learning from the Giants” session with Prof. Dr. Mark Pagell who will share his publication experiences and engage in Q&A with the participants

OB Division Junior Faculty Workshop: Overcoming Pitfalls and Pandemics
The Organizational Behavior (OB) Junior Faculty Workshop is designed for faculty members who consider themselves junior (e.g., are untenured or within the first 4-5 years of an academic position). The goal of the workshop is to provide a forum for junior faculty members to gain career advice from senior Faculty Fellows (many of whom are editors and/or editorial board members at top journals) about how to navigate career-related challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic and more generally. The panel of Faculty Fellows will share their tips and respond to questions from junior faculty participants.
