    Call for Nominations:  2014 Entrepreneurship Practice Award

      

    Dear ENT Division members:

     

    Nominations are being accepted for the 2014 Entrepreneurship Practice Award. This award recognizes publications that contribute to knowledge directly relevant to the practice of entrepreneurship.  The award complements the current set of awards offered by the Entrepreneurship Division, which generally recognize publications based primarily on their contributions to scholarly understanding. This award is meant to recognize high-quality publications that have advanced the practice of entrepreneurship.

     

    Award criteria

    The Award will be granted to individuals who are members of the Academy and who have authored a publication (for example, a published book or article) deemed to have been especially effective at advancing the practice of entrepreneurship. Where there are multiple authors at least one must be a member of AOM. The criteria include but are not be limited to the quality of journal, evidence of impact on publications (including citations in both scholarly and main stream publications and media), impact on the legislative process (local or federal), and influence on entrepreneurship practice in the field.

     

    Award process & background

    A special committee convened by the Chair of the Entrepreneur Practitioner-Scholar Committee of the Entrepreneurship Division will review all nominations and determine awards in accordance with the above criteria.  The committee will include people with expertise in both scholarship and practice.  Winners will be announced when the award is presented in August at the annual meeting of the Academy of Management in Philadelphia.  This award is sponsored by the Small Giants Community.           

     

    How to nominate a publication:                        

    Send an email to the Entrepreneur Practitioner-Scholar Committee Chair at tom.mierzwa@gmail.com.  The nomination should be contained in an MS Doc file and include the following information:

    1.  The     name of the publication nominated, along with source details (e.g., journal or publisher name) as appropriate.

     

    2.  An explanation of why/how the publication fulfills the award criteria (limited to 500 words maximum).

     

    3.  The name & contact information of nominator(s).

     

    4.  Self-nominations are acceptable, as are nominations from members of the AOM community – a nominee does not need to be a member of the ENT division.

     

     4.  Be sure to submit your nomination by 5 PM EDT, Monday, March 31, 2014.

                                                                                        
    Thanks for considering a submission for this award.

     

    Sincerely,


    Tom Mierzwa
