Strategizing, Activities and Practices Interest Group (SAP)
2025 Division PDW Program: Call for Submissions
PDW Chair: Martin Friesl, University of Bamberg
AOM in Copenhagen will mark the first AOM Annual Meeting outside of North America. It constitutes the unique opportunity to build bridges to different academic communities. In that spirit, we invite PDW proposals that connect SAP research across other practice- and process theoretical research streams including entrepreneurship-as-practice and leadership-as-practice and other related domains. We encourage PDW proposals that help build our community, enhance methodological skill and are aimed at shifting perspectives on how organizations strategize, innovate, compete, deal with societal challenges and transform.
In line with the thematically inclusive conference theme ‘AOM in Copenhagen’, we welcome diversity and encourage different approaches to PDWs. The below is offered to stimulate creative thought and is by no means complete:
- What are methodological frontiers that SAP scholars should engage in?
- What are emerging theoretical trends that have the potential to shape SAP research going forward?
- Are there important empirical phenomena in the realm of strategizing and organizing that warrant closer attention from a practice perspective? Such sessions could engage with technology (e.g. AI), inter-organizational organizing but also strategic conduct and organizing in different organizational forms as well as governance modes. This list is indicative and proposals are not limited to these themes.
- How can we support doctoral students and junior faculty in their career paths?
- Are there important innovations in teaching strategizing and organizing?
Please note that PDWs will take place any time between Friday, 25 July through to Sunday, 27 July 2025.
We strongly encourage PDWs that appeal to a wide range of audiences and themes beyond the SAP community by building linkages with other Divisions and Interest Groups. Please indicate potential cosponsors in the submission document (e.g., CTO, ENT, OMT, ODC, MC, RM, STR, TIM). For AOM in Copenhagen, the minimum duration of a PDW is 1 hour, but submitters are welcome to request different durations if they feel it would better serve the workshop, session flow, and attendee engagement. The duration request must be documented in the uploaded proposal document itself at the time of submission. The PDW Chair can adjust the session duration of any submitted PDW if they feel it would better serve the group’s member experience.
The submission deadline is Tuesday, 7 January 2025 at 17:00 ET (GMT-5/UTC-5). Please keep an eye on aom.org for updates regarding the submission deadlines. Submitters are strongly encouraged to discuss potential PDWs with SAP PDW Chair Martin Friesl.
