Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Division (DEI)  

2025 DEI Division Professional Development Workshops: Call for Submissions

PDW Chair:  Jennifer R. Bishop Case Western Reserve University


The Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) division, formerly known as Gender and Diversity in Organizations (GDO) division, cordially invites proposals for Professional Development Workshops (PDW) to be held at the 2025 85th Annual Meeting of the Academy of Management Academy of Management meeting in Copenhagen, Denmark. PDW sessions may take place any day during the Annual Meeting, from Friday, 25 July through Sunday, 27 July 2025.

We welcome PDWs across the spectrum of DEI topics that can help expand our thinking and encourage contemplation of new possibilities. Including a wide variety of topics from political and economic volatility, inequality, rapid technological changes, environmental erosion, and other societal issues which challenge traditional approaches to organizing just to name a few. PDWs submitted to the DEI division can attend to ways in which we can foster societal justice and equality through attention to organizations and their ecosystems.

The aim of the PDW program is to provide experiences that promote the personal and professional development of our members and attendees – enhancing our knowledge and skills with respect to research, teaching, and practice in the DEI domain.

The interactive nature of PDWs offers opportunities to energize participants through deep engagement and can even culminate into actionable plans for promoting scholarly and practical activities. Given our division’s longstanding interest in the topic area, we encourage proposers to think broadly about how the design of a PDW can advance our conversations related to diversity, equity and inclusion. 

PDW proposals should be innovative, interactive, inclusive, integrative, developmental, valuable, and provocative. PDWs provide an opportunity to experiment with new ideas and approaches that do not fit within the confines of the regular AOM program, so proposers are encouraged to be bold in their workshop design.

The DEI division is committed to extending our reach – socially, culturally, geographically and across different roles. We therefore welcome proposals designed to facilitate connections and collaborations between our members around the globe. Submissions with an interdisciplinary focus that could be relevant for sponsorship between multiple divisions are especially welcome.

PDW proposals must be submitted through the Academy of Management’s electronic Submission Center. The Submission Center will open early December 2025, and the deadline for submissions is Tuesday, 7 January 2025 at 17:00 ET (UTC-5/GMT-5).  Early submissions are encouraged. If you have questions or would like to discuss a potential workshop idea, please contact the DEI Division’s PDW Chair, Jennifer R Bishop.
