    Dear Colleagues, (apologies for cross-posting)

    The Humanistic Management Network cordially invites you to join us for an All Academy Symposium on:

    Opening Governance of the AOM? The Academy between rigor, relevance and irrelevance.

    WHEN:  Sunday, Aug 9 2015 1:00PM - 2:30PM at 
    WHERE: Fairmont Waterfront Hotel in Waterfront Ballroom C

    Organizer: Michael Andreas Pirson; Fordham U.; 
    Discussant: Henry Mintzberg; McGill U.; 
    Speaker: Anne S. Tsui; U. of Notre Dame; 
    Speaker: Donald C. Hambrick; Pennsylvania State U.; 
    Speaker: Otto Scharmer; MIT Sloan; 
    Speaker: Hunter Lovins; Natural Capitalism Solutions; 

    In this symposium five leading management thought leaders will present their perspectives on the future of governance of the Academy of Management itself. Starting off, two former presidents of the Academy of Management (Don Hambrick and Anne Tsui) will represent an internal perspective on how opening governance can help the AOM itself. Then two public intellectuals (Otto Scharmer and Hunter Lovins) will suggest ways the AOM can open governance more effectively to include "ultimate stakeholders" of practice, the public and the environment. Henry Mintzberg will discuss various perspectives and suggest ways forward.

    It would be great to see many of you then. If you are interested in the work of the Humanistic Management Network please join our Caucus which will also host Sandra Waddock and Hunter Lovins on Monday.

    Monday, August 10, 2015
    3:00:00 PM - 4:30:00 PM    		Vancouver Convention Centre, Room 016

    Please feel free to be in touch if you have any questions.

    Best regards,

    Michael
