If you are an experienced member of the Operations and Supply Chain Management (OSCM) Division, please consider volunteering by serving as a "buddy" for new members of the division in the "Welcome a New Member" program. The program is designed to extend a warm welcome to new members attending the AOM annual meeting for the first time by pairing them with a more experienced OSCM Division member.
Please consider signing up to serve as a volunteer this year by clicking on the link below. This entails meeting virtually with 1-2 new members to offer perspective on various activities that the OSCM Division organizes during the conference. This can be done as a 30-minute (approx.) meeting either via a virtual chat prior to AOM or at the conference, if schedules allow. Anyone who has been to the annual meeting at least once has all the experience needed for this role.
To facilitate the process of matching new members with experienced members, the deadline to submit this information is: Monday, June 1, 2026, 11:59 PM US ET.
