Dear Colleagues,

Apologies for cross-posting. 

Please find below an invitation to participate in a short survey aimed at eliciting experiences to help create inclusive conference environments for academics with disabilities. We are keen to hear from anyone who has an interest in creating inclusive contexts.

Please do let me know if you need any further information to participate.

Dear colleagues,

My name is Dr Jannine Williams from School of Management, Queensland University of Technology (QUT).  

This research project is being undertaken as part of a Professional Development Workshop (PDW) being conducted at the 2019 Academy of Management (AOM) Annual Meeting.  The PDW is aimed at co-creating inclusive strategies and practices to make future AOM conferences more enabling and accessible.

The purpose of the survey is to solicit the experiences of faculty with disabilities with experience of AOM Annual Meetings/other networking events and Academy members experienced or interested in developing inclusive conference environments, to inform the activities to be conducted in the PDW.

You are invited to participate in this research project because you are an Academy member and/or are an academic or research student who may be interesting in developing enabling and accessible conference environments.

Further details on the study and access to the online survey can be found by clicking on the following link:

Please note that this study has been approved by the QUT Human Research Ethics Committee (approval number 1900000294).

Many thanks for your consideration of this request.
