    Subject: Effectuation Workshop Dec 2009 -- FYI and Please forward

     

     

    A number of people initiating effectuation-related research have asked for a dedicated forum to present, discuss and gain feedback on their work.  It sounded like such a good suggestion that we set aside time for a meeting in December.  The idea is to bring together doctoral students and faculty who have active work on the area and focus on theoretical, design, analysis and publishing strategy aspects of their projects with a purely developmental eye.  Any self-selected stakeholder will be included, given an active project they are willing to share.  The specifics of the meeting are as follows:

     

    When:   8:30am, Tuesday December 15th to 5:00pm, Wednesday December 16th, 2009.

    Where:  Palo Alto, California

    Requirement:  The only requirement is that participants provide a working paper for us to share and discuss at the meeting.

    Cost:  There is no cost to attend.  You pay for your own transportation and lodging. 

    Deadline:  Please respond with a working paper by October 15th if you would like to participate.

     

    John, we understand that you may not currently be working on an effectuation-related project but we wanted to be as inclusive as possible to

    (a)   offer an invite to this meeting,

    (b)  to see whether future meetings of this sort might be of interest to you, and

    (c)   in the hopes that you will forward this on to scholars for whom it might be relevant. 

     

    Please respond to us on the first two points when you have a moment, and thank you for your time.

     

    With best regards,
