Reflecting on 2024 and Preparing for 2025
As 2024 draws to a close, the Academy of Management (AOM) takes this opportunity to reflect on a year marked by scholarly contributions and community engagement, made possible through the dedication of our members and volunteers. Looking ahead, we are excited to invite you to AOM 2025, taking place 25–29 July in Copenhagen, Denmark!
Throughout 2024, the AOM community has continued to advance its mission of fostering a vibrant and inclusive network of scholars, expanding opportunities for intellectual exchange, and contributing to meaningful societal impact through research and teaching.
This year, AOM published 29 new journal issues across its seven journals and welcomed a new editor of Academy of Management Perspectives. Our journal editors facilitated numerous paper and idea development workshops worldwide, creating spaces for collaboration and the refinement of scholarly work.
This year’s 84th Annual Meeting in Chicago, Illinois, brought together more than 10,000 members to present research, exchange ideas, and connect with colleagues. The meeting featured the annual transition of leadership, as Sharon Alvarez passed the gavel to President Peter Bamberger. AOM celebrated excellence with awards presented at the Publications, Division and Interest Group, and All-Academy levels.
As we prepare for AOM 2025, we encourage your participation by submitting your research or volunteering as a reviewer. We look forward to seeing you in Copenhagen in July for another engaging and impactful Annual Meeting.
Thank you for your invaluable contributions to AOM this year and every year.
Wishing you a peaceful and rejuvenating close to 2024!

AOM Member and The University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s Brett H. Neely Jr. has been named one of Poets & Quants 50 Best Undergraduate Professors for 2024, an annual recognition of the world’s top educators in business education.
Since joining the College of Business in 2020, Neely made his mark teaching undergraduate and graduate students organizational behavior. Tailoring his courses to students' interests and goals, he incorporates real-world examples, activities, assignments and guest speakers to create an interactive learning environment.
“I wanted a career that would let me work to understand what makes people tick, especially in ways that improve their lives and well-being,” Neely said. “I realized that being a professor studying organizational behavior was a career path where I could pursue many of my interests all at once.", Neely said.
Neely's research focuses on leadership and interpersonal dynamics, specifically on how leaders facilitate and empower positive outcomes for employees. His work has been published in the Academy of Management Journal, Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of Management and The Leadership Quarterly.
