CONFLICT MANAGEMENT (CM)

The Conflict Management (CM) Division invites creative proposals for Professional Development Workshops (PDWs) for the 2023 Annual Meeting. 

PDWs are an opportunity to educate, discuss, interact, and explore various aspects of professional development that benefit doctoral students, junior faculty, senior faculty, and professionals on aspects of teaching, research, practice related to conflict management, negotiation, publishing, use of exercises, classroom management, and so on. PDWs are an opportunity to engage in cutting edge ideas, share expertise and best practices, and to create a forum for thought-provoking discussions. PDW sessions can address any issue of concern to CM scholars or practitioners – or both. If your PDW idea deals with trust, power, persuasion, influence, negotiation, collaboration, justice, or any of the other topics that are part of CM at the individual, group, organization, institutional, interorganizational, and/or societal level, we hope you submit to CM!  

Your proposed PDW should provide an intellectually stimulating experience in both its content and its delivery. PDWs usually vary in length from 1 to 8 hours, and they are delivered in a variety of formats, such as roundtables, panel discussions, research incubators, town hall meetings, or debates. We encourage submissions that feature a variety of research methods, including novel methods, as relevant. Please note that all sessions will be hosted in-person and on-site in Boston.  

We encourage (but do not require) you to submit proposals that can be co-sponsored with other divisions and that address the conference theme, "Putting the Worker Front and Center". 

Please be sure to follow the Academy of Management's guidelines for submissions. You can submit your proposal via the  AOM Submission Center. 

The deadline for proposals is  Tuesday, 10  January 2023 at 17:00 ET (GMT-5/UTC-5). 

If you have any questions, please contact Laura Rees, PDW Chair.
