Hi Everyone:
In response to Corrine's question, what do you love about careers-there is so much to love. We are a friendly, welcoming group. People often join as PhD students and remain members throughout their careers. Our leadership positions are filled by a diverse set of individuals from both big and small universities.
Corrine, Scott, Bert and the Executive Committee have a done a wonderful job of moving our division forward. Just look at the great events on our program.
Lauren Keating has once again organized the excellent Careers in Rough session that helps scholars at all stages of their career develop their work for publication. If you haven't attended one of these sessions, please talk with Lauren and submit for the 2018 program.
Our division has always done a terrific job of providing doctoral students with a developmental consortium, but we've taken another major step forward. Career division member Bob Ford and CASS have organized events for more senior scholars. There are many of these sessions on the program. The Monday, August 7th session (10-11 am Hyatt Regency in Hanover Hall D) with Glenn Ruffenach, the former Encore Editor for the Wall Street Journal looks especially interesting as well as the symposium "Then & Now: Beyond Turnover" (3-4:40 pm Hyatt Regency in Inman) which features top scholars, including Julia Teahen, Tom Lee, Maria Kraimer and Beni Halvorsen).
What do you think-what do you love about our division?
Take Care, Sherry

Subject: Welcome to the Careers Community!
Dear Careers Division Members,
We are so excited to present the Careers Community on Connect@AOM!
We know that Careers division members are eager for opportunities to network with each other, to build relationships and to share and exchange professional resources. The Careers Community makes this easy to do! The Discussion feature allows you to participate in threaded conversations where you can respond to previous conversations or start your own on a topic of your choosing. Documents and other multimedia files can be shared in a centralized resource library, accessible to all. Members can also contribute to our calendar of events, creating a valuable one-stop resource for all of the important events, calls for papers or other professional development opportunities that are of interest to our community.
Are you ready to get started? You can login to the community using the same username and password that you use to access your AOM member profile.
To kick off the discussion, we'd love to know what you love about working in the Careers field! To post an answer to the group, use the "Reply to discussion" link found to the right of this message in your email.
We hope we are excited to join the conversation with this new member benefit! See you at Connect@AOM!
