The International Management Division (IMD) is pleased to announce the commencement of a series of webinars. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, webinars have become an effective vehicle to help scholars and students around the world keep up with and discuss important topics. To better serve division members' intellectual needs, IMD will offer three types of webinars on a monthly basis.
- Eminent Scholar Webinar: We will invite 3-4 recipients of the IMD's Eminent Scholar Award. Eminent Scholars will share their insights on topics related to international management in the post-pandemic era. The first speaker in the Eminent Scholar Webinar is Professor Tarun Khanna of Harvard Business School. The webinar will be held at 10 a.m. Eastern Time on Thursday, November 5th. You will find more details and a registration link in a separate announcement soon.
- Research Webinar: Professor Elizabeth Rose, former Division Chair, and Denise Dunlap, Chair of the Scholarship and Engagement Committee, will organize research webinars in the first weeks of December, February and April. They will cover topics such as (1) When to let it go? Submitting your paper, (2) Developing and nurturing co-author relationships. And (3) Dealing with referees' comments. These topics will be particularly useful for students and junior scholars.
- Committee-led Webinar: Multiple committees of IMD will also organize webinars related to research, teaching, and annual conference activities. The Online Research Resources Committee offered the first of these webinars on October 2nd. Almost 200 members attended the webinar titled 'Editors' Panel: Data in International Business Research – Sources, Validation and Transparency'. The Membership Drive Committee will be next, offering a webinar in the first week of January, 2021.
For more details and a registration link, please keep an eye out for the announcements that we will make via Connect @ AOM (https://aom.org/network/connect@aom) and Facebook. We look forward to seeing you online in IMD's webinar series!
