A heartfelt 'Thank You' to all the volunteers that worked tirelessly to get AOM's first virtual meeting off the ground, and to the 7000+ members that took part in the rich program offerings this past 6-11 August.
Each year at the Annual Meeting the Academy of Management recognizes many individuals for their professional accomplishments, distinguished service, and exceptional contributions to the field of management. This Academy News issue highlights this year's Career Achievement and All-Academy Program Awards winners, along with some Division and Interest Group award winners announced pre-conference. Please join us in congratulating these 2020 award winners on their exceptional achievements, and be sure to look for additional award announcements in issues to come.
"Preparing a conference program for the #AOM is a big commitment. But preparing 2 programs (offline + online) through the #pandemic is a titanic effort. Our heartfelt THANK YOU goes to all division program chairs who volunteered their time to make #AOM2020 happen."

"Listening to a great @AOM_OMT presentation WHILE making coffee WHILE reading discussions in the chat WHILE enjoying the sunshine. Sure, there are some clear disadvantages, but there are some major benefits of a virtual @AOMConnect (not to mention carbon footprint Airplane!) #AOM2020"
