    Now that the semester is winding down, it is time to start thinking about your plans for the Academy. Register now for the OB Junior Faculty Consortium, and if you are not eligible then recommend to your colleagues that they register!

    The Organizational Behavior Division would like to invite junior faculty members to attend the 2006 OB Junior Faculty Workshop. The session will be part of the 2006 Academy of Management meeting in Atlanta. It will begin during the evening of August 11 and will end with two Editors’ Panels on the morning of August 13.

    The program is designed to provide valuable mentoring and networking opportunities. The workshop will include presentations by invited faculty fellows, as well as small group research discussions. Topics addressed will include Conducting High Impact Research, Publishing in Top-Tier Journals, and Having Impact as a Teacher and Mentor. The program also provides a unique opportunity to gain research feedback on your own scholarly work. For 2006, the following senior scholars will participate as faculty fellows: Robert J. Bies, Joel Brockner, Russell Cropanzano, Daniel C. Feldman, Michele J. Gelfand, Barbara Gutek, Timothy A. Judge, Robert C. Liden, John Mathieu, Sandra J. Robinson, Mary Uhl-Bien, and Batia Wiesenfeld.

    To register for this workshop you must be a member of the Organizational Behavior Division of the Academy as of May, 2006. You must have completed your PhD within the last five years, and be done no later than July 1 of 2006. In your registration materials, please include the following:

     Full contact information
     A current curriculum vitae
     A 2-3 page (double spaced) summary of a working paper or project in progress. This will be forwarded to relevant Workshop Faculty Fellows, as well as to other participants who share your interests.
     The names of three faculty fellows with whom you would like to work on your paper or project. We will try and match you with at least one of them.
     A registration fee for $75.00 U.S. dollars, payable by check or credit card, to the Academy of Management.
