The Entrepreneurship Division will sponsor a Mid-Career Consortium during the 2018 Academy of Management meetings in Chicago, Illinois on Saturday, August 11, 2018. This exciting event will help Entrepreneurship scholars who have earned promotion and tenure develop a strategy for actively managing the next stage of their careers. The consortium will be highly interactive, providing an incredible opportunity to interact with some of the leading experts of the Entrepreneurship Division.
Last year's senior scholars included: Candy Brush, Tom Lumpkin, Jerry Katz, Bill Gartner, Lou Marino, Linda Edelman, Johan Wiklund, Per Davidsson, Phil Phan, Andrew Corbett, Don Kuratko, Marc Gruber, Friederike Welter, Jeff McMullen, and Jennifer Jennings.
By interacting with senior scholars such as these, you will be able to design a strategy to achieve your career goals.
Potential topics of discussion:
- Setting the stage for the next chapter of your career
- Leading in academia: Administration - Department chair, Dean, Center Director
- Leading in academia: Book and journal editorships, running conferences
- The global Entrepreneurship scholar and post-tenure changes in the scholarship landscape
- Getting out of the post-tenure rut with our research
- Books versus journal articles
- Joint appointments, sabbaticals, international movement, mid-career job markets
- The Entrepreneurship teacher and executive education
- Identifying and securing grants
- Working with doctoral students
- Service opportunities to the Entrepreneurship Division
Participants will have opportunities to engage in round table discussions with leading experts of the Division to enable them to gather the information each individual needs to help build their career.
Participation is free of charge for participants and lunch will be provided.
