AoM 2016

Please see the attached list of PDWs and Academic sessions that we believe will be of interest to members of the Network of Leadership Scholars. In total, we have found 83 sessions related to leadership. We have highlighted a few and encourage all leadership scholars to add these to your customizable program:

Sunday, Aug. 7

3:15PM- 4:15PM NLS Meeting – Anaheim Convention Center, 210C

Our annual meeting convenes immediately after the LQ Board Meeting in the same room. Come right at 3PM to have a light refreshment and socialize with LQ Board Members. This year, our meeting will focus on outreach and ways to continue to foster collaboration within our leadership community.

4:30PM-5:30PM NLS Awards Presentation – Anaheim Convention Center, 210C

This session presents two awards: The Alvah H. Chapman Jr. Outstanding Leadership Dissertation Award, sponsored by The Center for Leadership at Florida International University and the NLS Eminent Scholar sponsored by Elsevier. This year’s Eminent Leadership Scholar Award will be presented to Dr. Michael Mumford, who will address the audience with remarks regarding the state of leadership research.

5:30PM-7:00PM NLS Reception – Anaheim Convention Center, 210B

Join us for snacks and a no-host bar immediately following the Awards Presentation to continue opportunities for collaboration and networking.

Tuesday, Aug. 9

We are also excited to highlight two additional sessions focused on leadership research.

9:45AM-11:15AM Meaningful Mentoring to Develop High Quality Leadership Research
Anaheim Convention Center, 202B

The focus of the session will be on developing theoretical foundations and designing high quality empirical studies. We promote use of various methods that would benefit from collaborations with other scholars; e.g., multiple comparative case studies, incident diaries, field experiments. This is a great opportunity for junior scholars to develop their ideas, and to establish new collaborative relationships. This session is focused on work in progress; it is not suited for participants with completed research projects.

Potential participants must email a brief research proposal to Dr. Marie Dasborough by July 22, 2016 (Email: m.dasborough@miami.edu). In the email submission, participants should indicate if they are a doctoral student or faculty member. They should also indicate their top 3 preferences for who they would like to work with from the list of senior leader scholars. Participants will then be notified by email if their proposal was accepted for discussion.
