Dear OM ListServe Members
Susan Jackson, 2009 AOM Program Chair, has requested distribution of the e-mail below and the
attachment re Call for All-Academy PDWs and Symposia on ?Green Management Matters?
Due January 15, 5:00 pm (EST)

Regards
Mile'
All-Academy PDWs and Symposia address issues of broad interest to members of the Academy of
Management and are directly related to the conference theme, ?Green Management Matters?. We
are looking for sessions that stimulate new thoughts and behaviors. All-Academy Theme sessions
are not for people who want to sit back and listen; they are for people who want to be actively
engaged. Sessions can be either PDWs or Symposia. Examples of sessions we would like to see
include:
- Sharing of best practices for Greening university operations.
- Discussions of international differences in Green government policies and management
practices.
- Alternative approaches to Greening the undergraduate, MBA, PhD and executive curricula.
- Descriptions and demonstrations of green management teaching resources.
- Research and theory on effective approaches to changing Green behaviors.
- Panels of practicing managers describing their most difficult Green challenges.
- Case studies of examples in which Green Management is changing management practice.
- Scholarly discussions of how prominent theories might be applied to this topic.
- Brainstorming sessions to develop new research agendas.
- Presentations and analyses of available Green Management metrics and methodologies for use in
scholarly research.
- Information sessions for teachers who wish to use Green Management cases, exercises,
simulations, etc. in core courses that focus on other topics.
- Symposia that highlight the multi-level, interdisciplinary nature of Green Management Matters.
If you have an idea for an All-Academy workshop or symposium on Green Management Matters,
feel free to All-Academy Theme Chair, Andrew Hoffman,
2009AllAcademy@umich.edu, by
December 15, 2008, for initial feedback about your idea. Full proposals must be submitted via the
AOM submissions system by January 15, 2009.
