    Dear Colleagues,

    We invite you to attend our upcoming Professional Development Workshop (PDW) at the 2025 Academy of Management (AOM) Annual Meeting in Copenhagen:

    Rooted Resistance: Advancing the Literature on Race, Gender, and Self-Presentation:

    📅 Saturday, July 26, 2025
    🕥 10:30 AM – 12:30 PM (CEST)
    📍 Bella Center, Hall B – B3-m9

    This PDW builds on our symposium last year and highlights the global and intersectional experiences of scholars navigating the politics of professionalism-from hair and clothing to cultural and embodied expression-and how these intersect with workplace norms and hierarchies.

    Division Sponsors: DEI, OB, CMS

    Join us for:

    • Community-building with like-minded scholars
    • Modules on publishing, pedagogy, and navigating academia
    • A deep dive into self-presentation research across race, gender, and institutions

    Click here to RSVP (While registration is not required, we'd love to know who's attending so we can build community and tailor resources in advance!)

    We hope to see you there!

    Warmly,
    The "Rooted Resistance II" Organizers
    Dr. Samantha E. Erskine, Naomi Samuel, Dr. Holly Slay Ferraro, Dr. Aneika Simmons, Dr. Tina R. Opie, and Dr. Tsedale M. Melaku
